How the splrlts Spell.

Judging by spiritistic communica
tions have received lately simple
spelling must be more popular in the
world beyond than it is in this" said
man who patronizes mediums. Hall

land nowadays are spelled in a way
to bring joy to the hearts of the
simple spoilers. Not one medium,
but many, transmit them thus. Me.

spelling book well enough to spell
down a whole room full Of folks have
gone over to the revised edition.

sages must be impressed with the
utility Of the new system. At the last

Life Saving Contests for Miners.

Mining men from all parts Of the
country attended the second annua
inter-company meet of first aid teams
held recently at Wilkes Barre, Pa.
under the auspices of the Nationa
Red Cross society. United States army
officers acted as judges in the con
tests in which various teams demon
strated their skill in rescuing miners
under most difficult conditions.
An air-tight mine chamber was built
in an open field for the contests and
charged with various kinds of fumes
such as are met with in coal mines
and it was in this that the first aid
teams did their rescue work, com.
pleting their task of restoring the
rescued men out in the open air.
Teams from the Lehigh Valley Coal
company, Pennsylvania, Hillside, TEN
pie and Delaware, Laekawanna and
Western competed in the events,
which were in charge of Maj. Charles
Lynch of the United States army.
For the first time in the history OF
the movement there was a display of
first aid work by engineers from the
government experiment station at
Pittsburg.

the bulk of the hogs In a particular
locality were grade Poland Chinas we
would by no means take up that breed
and likewise If they were Durocs we
would start up business as a breeder
of the red hog. and the same might be
said Of the Chester Whites or Berk-
shires. AS rule the beginner in the
pure-bred hog business has his hard
est shedding the first two years and
many a man becomes disgusted when
he finds that he has kept over a big
bunch of males that he cannot dispose
of, thus making it necessary for him
to dispose of them later on as stays
and thereby incur an actual loss.
1t must be admitted that there are
exceptional cases and sometimes the
best profits are realized in handling
a new breed A good example of this
could be found in popularity of the
Hampshire hog. On account of the
growthiness of this breed, their pro-
life character and their general con-
stitutional hardness these hogs have
rapidly grown in popularity and in
every instance tnat has been called
to our attention where a beginner has
started in with the right foundation
and handled them properly he has had
a brisk demand for his surplus hogs
that were good enough to go into the

GUINEA HENS
ARE PROFITABLE
Bakers Always Glad to Get Their
Eggs Because They Can be
Used to Good Advantage
in Cake Baking.
By WAITER B. LEuTz.

There is no doubt that if the guinea
hen is properly cared for at all times
that it win prove almost as profit
able as any of the ordinary breeds of
chickens
Guinea eggs are not always saluable
to country merchants because many
people say they are not palatable and
their color is against them, but bak-
ers are always glad to get guinea eggs
because it is claimed they can
be used to better advantage in cake
baking than any other, except duck
eggs.
If the eggs can be obtained from
guinea hens that have been confined
for a season or whose ancestors have
been treated as domestic fowls, the
birds will, in time, become almost as
tame as chickens.
When the hens are left out in the
open they make their nests in brush
heaps or out-of-the-way places, and
when their nest is once located they
rarely leave the vicinity, and it is.
therefore, easy to find the nests 1t
is always better to place the eggs un-
der a chicken hen for Matching un-
less the guinea hen has been con.
fined.

The production of good, healthy to-
bacco plants fit for transplanting in
the field is one of the most important
operations of tobacco growing. says
the Orange Judd Farmer. It is the
well-known policy of most tobacco
growers to plant more seed and have
larger beds than necessary when the
weather and everything are favorable
to production Of good, strong, healthy
plants. w. S. Belmer of Connecticut
after losing several years in success
sion HIS crop of small plants by freez
ing, decided to make a bed this spring
in which he was sure to grow as many
and healthy plants as he wished. The
cost of this bed, he claims, is about
one and one-half days extra labor, or
three dollars more than what his old
beds cost him. This seed bed, as
illustrated above. is Al feet wide, 81
feet long and four and one-half feet
high to the caves and about nine feet
high In the center. On the west and
south sides are placed the glass

Eeedinn Draft Colts.

Feed the draft colts strong for all
the growth and development possible
in the early maturity to get into the
big gelding market as soon as pos
sible, where prices are high. but do
not feed corn and oil meal to fatten
the colts and young horses as you
would to a fat steer Horses want
bone and muscle along with their
large size. With the run of the pas
ture every day for vigorous exercise,
and as soon as old enough give them
careful work; then you can increase
the feed and get them in good show
condition, and with work enough to
keep them in the best condition the
buyers will pay you SIS to $50 more
than for the thin horse.

Massacres by the Treacherous Mana

At Cawnpur was a large native gar
rison, and when they mutinied, Mana
Sahib put himself at their head The
Europeans, including more women and
children than fighting men, were be
seiged for two weeks, and then, trust
ing to a safe-conduct from Mana Sa-
hib, they surrendered. They EN-
barked on boats on the Ganges, the
boats were set afire and shot at by
the natives from both banks, and only
four escaped. The women and chill
dren were massacred few days later,
some of them being pitchforked living
upon the bayonets of their mur-
derers.
Delhi was beseiged for months from
the surrounding ridge, over which

only in September that the Kashmir

British callousness, and lack of taste

graveyard on the ride above Delhi

one center post to the other; then ex-

Many communications are received
by this paper during the year asking
for information on the best breeds OF
live stock. Sometimes these inquiries
relate to draft horses, at other times
to beef cattle, frequently concerning
the breeds of dairy cattle and the last
one received asks for information con-
cerning the best breed of hogs.
We have repeatedly stated in these
columns that it is strictly impossible
to give advice on the question OF
breeds as applied to any class of live
stock, says the Homestead. So much
depends upon the tastes Of the indi-
vidual, upon the environment and
upon the requirements of neighboring
farmers tLat it would be time wasted
to mention specifically one breed and
then undertake to prove that it was
better than any or all others.
We take it for granted that in this
case it is the intention of the sub
scriber to handle purebred hogs and
we presume he is a beginner in the
business and under these circum-
stances something may be said on the
topic that will throw little light on
the subject for those just starting.
The average man will do little bet
ter right from the start if he takes
up the breed that is popular in his
community The reason for this is
that he will have less difficulty in dis
posing of his surplus males early in
the season than if he starts in with a
breed with which his neighbors are
unfamiliar We mean by this that if
