C5NOTES1
Eye trouble is rare in pigs.

Eye trouble Is rare In pigs.
Constant care is what develops the
pigs into market toppers.
An occasional feed OF oats will be
valuable for the brood SOW.
Alfalfa Is great feed for the brobd
SOW in summer and winter.
Two litters Of pigs year is about
what the best sows will do.
Don't expect to work your horses
sixteen hours a day just because you
do.
To produce milk a eve must have
good food and an abundance OF fresh
water.
The hog house should be built on
high ground so that it will have good
drainage.
The feed for the mother eve is an
important item in securing growth in
the lamb.
Silage is to be one OF the great
feeds OF the corn belt in the not dis
tsnt future
When you are fattening hogs. II is
easy to make the mistake Of giving
too much corn
The hog is considered a dirty AMI.
NAL. but no creature enjoys a clean
dry bed more than a hog.
Kafir corn alone is said to make
large quantities Of excellent silage
very nearly equal to corn silage
Environment has a greater effect
on the lamb when 1t is young than
at any other period OF its career
The concensus OF opinion among
shepherds is that the docking sbould
be done when the lamb is about two
weeks old.
A balky horse is made so BY
cranky or cruel driver, and can rarely
be CURED So be very careful in break.

When fattenine hogs on clover they
should be fed corn only once a dav
and that late in the evening, thus in
1ucing them to eat as much clover a..
possible

A mass meeting of the citizens of
Wendell was held Friday night to
discuss means for the raising of funds
to purchase the strip of land which
the railroad has asked to be donated
for the purpose Of sidings and yards.
1t was the sense Of the meeting
that the $500 per acre asked for the
land was to high and that the town
could not afford to pay that much.
A committee Of two consisting of
DR.. II. Z. Lamb and Senator Hast
lngs was appointed to confer with
MIR. Sullivan and try to induce him
to accept a more reasonable compen-
sation for the land.

Mr.. Geo. q. Barrett, Secretary County
Fair, Wendell, Idaho.
Dear SIR / am anxious to have
Lincoln County in the forefront at the
coming Fair,(
The TACT that your people are going
after the County Sweepstakes at our
Fair has created good deal OF interest
here and elsewhere, and our association
stands ready TO render your every assis-
tants in your efforts
There will be an enormous crowd of
visitors from other states OF the middle
west where drouthy conditions prevail.
and they will be anxious to learn how
the 'Rainmakers'' OF Idaho produce
the results.
The county which carries off first
honors at the Fair will get an advertise
ment from the eastern press that will
bring results hundred fold more than
the expense incurred in bringing its ex-
hibits here.
most sincerely hope that you will
have successful fair, and that you will
not be disappointed in your efforts to
assemble an exhibit from Lincoln Coun-
ty which will sweep the field at Boise
in October next. | shall be pleased to
give you all the help at my command.
Yours Truly,

Mr.. c. S. Faurot representing
The State Bureau of Immigration
and Statistics was in Wendell Tues
day. Mr.. Faurat is working up exhi-
bits for the land shows that will be
held in the eastern cities this fall.
The plan is to gather samples of
grain, grasses, fruit and vegetables
from each section Of the state and
label every sample with the growers
name and address. This will enable
any interested person in the east
to write the grower and get the facts
first handed. All persons who have
good samples of farm products
should save them and bring them to
Wendell and give them into the
care of someone who will take care
of them. There will be store room
provided for this purpose where all
such exhibits can be cared for until
Mr.. Faurot returns to take them
himself. The collection will be
taken to the following land shows
and expositions, International Dry
Farming Congress at Colorado
Springs, Omaha Land Show, Pitts
burg Land Show and New York
Land Show.
