AN UPRIGHT AND JUST JUDGE.

ting in the recent election for court
house bonds in this county, is pub
lished in this issue of the Journal.
lie holds that the former registration
law of Montana is All unreasonable
and unnecessary regulation and in di-
rect conflict with article IN, section
2, of the constitution, which deprived
many of the legal voters of the cOun-
ty an opportunity to vote on the pro-
position, hence he decides that the
election was nugatory and void. Tax
alton without representation caused
the war of the revolution in this
country. The principle that Il people
could not be taxed without having Il
voice in the matter was forever set
tied by the favorable outcome OF
that war, and 10 state legislature by
Il special enactment has right to alb
rogate that lnalienable right which is
vOuchsafed to every citizen by the
blood of our forefatlers, by the Unit
ed States Constitution, and by the
constitutions of every state in the
Union. Judge Cheadle's decision will
meet with the hearty approval of Il
large majority Of the legal voters of
the county. .

THE MAINE AND THE WAR WITH SPAIN

On the supposition that the full en-
posture of the wreck of the Maine in
Havana harbor will show that it was
destroyed by an internal instead of
external explosion, great many
newspapers are assuming that the de-
struci ion of the Maine caused the de-
claration by Our congress of war
against Spain, in retaliation and

work to destroy all who were in arms

men; and the children Of those who
sympathiZed with the instructors;
that when our forces finally invaded
and captured the island. they found
tens OF thousands OF those starving
wretches whom they had to feed and
nurse back to health. And almost as
brutal was Spain's rule in the Philip
pines. The truth is, our government
had been trying for II wear and half

been urging that country to stop the
atrocities in Cuba. But Spain was

CAREOF PIGS
Some Essentials to Be Consid-
cred if Best Results Are
Obtained.

fFrom State Farm Institute Bulletin
Hon. C. c. Pervier, respected law
maker and successful farmer of
Sheffield, Ill, has been responding
TO numerous calls from farmers in
stitutes for details in reference TO
successful management of pigs dnr-
ing winter Following are a few
high points from his remarks:
Much complaint is heard of pigs
not doing well in winter feeding
loss of appetite, failure to fatten,
cough and unthrifty appearance.
The hog is the only farm animal
that wears his summer clothes ell
winter. He does not grow a heavier
coat of hair for winter protection
ike the horse or COW, and for this
reason more care should be given

.ATARRH
4 SYSTEMIC BLOOD DISEASE

Catarrh is not merely an affection
of the mucous membranes it is a
deep-seated blood disease in which the
entire circulation and greater part of
the system are involved. 1t is more
commonly manifested in the head,
nose and throat, because of the sensi-
tive nature of these membranes, and
also because they are more easily
reached by irritating influences from
the outside. The symptoms of Ca
tarrh, such as a tight feeling in the
head, nose stopped up, throat clogged
and dry, hacking cough. etc, show
that the tiny blood vessels of the nlu-
cous membranes are badly congested
and infamed from the impurities in
the circulation. To cure Catarrh per-
manently the blood must be purified
and the system cleansed of all IN
healthy matter. Nothing equals
S. S. S. for this purpose. 1t attacks

THREE PRIME ESSENTIALS.

ESSEN
There are three essentials for
health. thrift and gain, to be con-
sidered in winter management to OBJ
tain best results; tn ese are clean
food, pure water and dry comfortable
sleeping places.
Clean food-The food of the pig
sfould be as clean ds for any 9th sr
farm animal-that is. il should net
he mixed or contaminated with any
substance that contains no food
value. Dirt and filth taken into the
stomach along with food impairs di-
gestion and reduces the gain; it als1
effects the appetite and general
health of the pig. Then too, a con-
siderable part of the food cons Imed
Is required to develop energy to sep
arate and expel the indigestable mat
ter.
It is a law of nature that the excre-
ment of all animals is poisonous TO
themselves and while pigs may prof
itably follow cattle. it is of vital i'm
portanceE that their food be not CON
taminated with their own eXcrement.
This means that pigs should never
be fed on the ground in a yard or
pen where their own exCrement
abounds. Feeding on the meadows
or pastures, moving about from
place to place is a good way in sum-
mer, but in winter feeding from the
cribs. to insure cleanliness. it is nee
essary to have a feeding floor and
it should be cleaned after every
feed
CONCRETE FEEDING FLOOR.
A feeding floor is one of several
improvements on the farm that pays
big interest on its cost and not only
that but pays back its cost as well.
The floor may be made of con-
crete or planks as preferred. but con-
crete is everlasting and more easily
cleaned. In locating the feeding
floor. two things should be consider
ed-Conyenience III feeding and COM
fort of the pigs while eating their
food The best location is on the
south side of corn crib-never on
the west or north. The west. north
and east sides should be tight board
ed. six feet high to provide efficient
wind break, but the south side should
be open so the sun may shine upon

adjoining the hog house or sleeping
quarters; locate it a few rods away
from such places so the pigs will
have a short distance TO walk for
their food and there will he little
but cobs to remove from the floor.
Pure water-Over 40 per cent of
a fat pig is water and a reduction of
the water supply below the natural
requirements will reduce the gain
just as surely as a reduction Of food
will Well or spring water is bet
ter than water from ponds or
streams Standing or stagnant wa
ter about the barns or lots should
not be tolerated Pigs should have

and night; they drink but little at

as much as is required for normal
development.
How to have a constant supply of
pure water in winter is a problem
that each farmer will have to solve
for himself
Concrete waterer-We have solved
this problem by making a concrete
waterer on the barrel and float plan,
except that the pigs drink from con-
crete boxes about 2 inches square
instead of from the barrel in the old
way. The water passes from the bar
rel into the boxes through holes in
galvanized iron plate. The dirt
cannot get into the barrel. but &C
cumulates in the boxes from which
it can easily be removed A tank
heater is kept in the barrel to warm
the water. Pigs will not drink as
much water, if very cold, as they re-
Quire. and warming the water has
induced them to drink more, be-
sides it is cheaper to warm the wa
ter with fuel than to warm It with
food.
DRY SLEEPING PLACES.
Pigs must not be allowed to sleep
in manure piles, straw stacks, or in
any place from which they will come
steaming or sweating. The sleeping
places must be neither too warm nor
too cold. and so arranged that cold
winds cannot blow in upon the pigs,
yet there must be good ventilation.
Good judgment must be used in
bedding the pigs If on the ground,
we'll protected from cold drafts. but
little bedding is needed. If on an
elevated floor, more bedding is re-
quired to keep cold from coming up
from below; IL on concrete floor. just
enough to keep the pigs from COM
ing in contact with the concrete. The
bedding should be removed once a
week, the sleeping places thorough
Iy busted with air-slacked lime. and
new bedding provided. Anything
that can be done>to increase the COM
fort of the pigs will add TO the gain
and profit in feeding.
Good care of pigs means good
breeding. good feeding. constant
more labor. closer at
tention to little details, and finally,
more dollars in the pocketbook.
