LADY is HEAVY CONSUMER
She Is Supported by the Toll Of 9th

Economically the lady Is supported
by the toll of others, but while this is
equally true of other classes of soci-
ETY., the oddly of her case consists OF
the acquescence of those most con-
cerned. The lady herself feels no I'M
easiness in her equivocal situation,
and the toilers who support her do
so with enthusiasm. She is not pro-
Queer; in most communities produc-
tive labor is by consent inladylike.
On the other hand, she Is the heaviest
Of consumers.
The women of the working classes
have been saved by their work itself.
In the shop and the factory they have
learned what the nursery can teach.
But the lady has had no social train
ing whatever; the noticeable weak
ness OF her play at bridge is tend
ency to work for her own hand. AS
the gentleman decays, the lady sur
wives as the strongest evidence of his
former predominance. Where he set
her, there she stays One after an
other the fabrics that supported her
have tottered, but she remains, adapt
ing herself to each new set of circum-
stances as it arises. 1t is possible that
an advancing social sentiment will ex-
anguish her altogether, but she can

The negro hitched up onto the

edge of the board rests upon the
ground against two pegs, which keep
1t from slipping backwards. The other
edge is kept up by means of two
shaky slender supports. A rope IL
fastened to the upper edge of this
board and to the gates, so that one
half of it, when the board is propped
up, holds the gate (d) shut, and thus
keeps the sheep confined, and the
other half allows the gate (c) to
swing open. The trap Is now set. A
dog seeks to enter the pen. He finds
the open gate and rushes in, over the
board set upon its edge, and knocks
this down. This closes the gate (c),
which is at once latched and fast,

swing open and the sheep confined is
liberated and, of course, proceeds
homeward without delay. while thu

KEEP HOGS FREE FROM LICE
Common Cause of ThriftIessness In
Young Pigs and Tends to Retard
Fattenlng In Adults.
(By R. q. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

(By r. G.. WEATHERSTONE.)
The hog louise Is common cause
of thriftlessness In young pigs and
when numerous, tends to retard fat
tening in adult hogs and injuriously
affects brood sows and boars. 1t is
advisable and profitable to keep
swine free from lice at all ages and
stages of their existence and devei-
opment SO far as possible. To this
end their houses. pens and sleeping
places should frequently be cleaned
and disinfected, the woodwork white
washed. the bedding material kept
fresh, clean and dry and the yards
free from accumulations of litter and
filth. 1t Is impossible to keep hogs
free from lice without maintaining
sanitary conditions in their quarters
and in attempting to rid them of
these pests the treatment must In
clude not only the hogs, but prac-
tically everything with which they
come in contact daily.
To disinfect recently purchased
hogs, that possibly may carry dis
ease germs or vermin into the herd,
wash them in a warm per cent solu-
ton OF coal tar dip and repeat the
treatment in 10 days or two weeks;
or apply the solution freely with a
spray pump and rub It in with a
brush. The addition of flowers of
sulphur at the rate of 161a pounds to
each 100 gallons of dip mixture rem
ders the solution more effective and
such a combination solution should
be freely used for all forms Of mango
or chronic disease of the skin In
hogs.
To destroy lice a mixture of equal
parts of kerosene and machine oil,
or one part of turpentine and two
parts of machine oil. should be ap-

Sheep should not be pastured on

Sheep that walk lame should be
examined at once and the proper

1t is even more essential in sum-

to proper facilities for watering the
hogs.
All things considered, a swift-rur.

bottom, is the best watering place
for hogs.
At the present time there Is a

Esrly Weapons.

The earliest weapons of mankind
of the cutting, thrusting, hacking and
stabbing variety-were undoubtedly
suggested by the natural weapons OF
the animals-the tusks of the boar,
elephant and walrus, the sword of the
swordfish and norwhal, the pointed
antlers of the deer and the short horns
of the steer. In fact, it is well known
that these weapons, taken directly
from the fruits of the chase, were act
ually employed by men before they
made for themselves any other weap
on than the club. The sword is SIM

CLOVER HAY AS HORSE FOOD
Tendency to Produce AIlment Known
as "Heaves" Renders That vaIu-
able Feed Unpopular.

The well-known tendency Of clover
hay when fed to horses to produce In
them the ailment known as "heaves,"
renders that valuable stock food UNI
popular with those who do not know
it's nutritive constituents.
The trouble is the horse is given
all it will eat, thus overlooking the
stomach with very rich food which
crowds its lungs and prevents their
free action. Well-cured clover hay in
right amount Is not likely to give
trouble, and less grain will be needed
than when almost any other kind OF
roughness is fed.
Some authorities claim that one
pound of hay and one of grain PEE
day for each 100 pounds weight of the
horse is about right for ordinary work.
and for hard work increase the graiE
accordingly.

Growing Wool.

Growing wool differs very little
from making bone and muscle. The
elements of food utilized in its COM
position do not materially differ from
those required by the skin, but vary
somewhat in proportion,
Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen
and sulphur are the principal and
essential elements of wool composition,
In order to produce strong uniform
fiber of wool it is necessary that the
food consumed by the sheep possess
an adequate quantity of these essen
tial elements, and in proper proper
ton.

so far apart that they will not hear

After the lambs have been taken

Green Feeds and Tonic Value.

One Of the greatest veterinary sur
geons acknowledges that grass or
other green stuff in spring or sum-
mer, as the weather gets warmer;-is
capable of doing more for the good
of the horses that are bit out OF
sorts than the faculty could with all
their tonics and other drugs to boot.
But for maintaining a healthy horse
in good, hard condition, green stuff
alone will not do great deal.
The horses stomach is small, and
a portion of the digesting of the food
is done farther on in the bowels.
Therefore there should be regard paid
to the nourishing quality of the grass
to which the animal helps himself.
