In one of our fields we have such a
clump Of quaking-asp and 1t is pleas
ing to note how contented these ami
mails are during the sweltering heat
Of the day, as they lie about in the
shade of this rustling clump Of trees.
If there Is not such shade planted
along the borders of field we should
not be slow in planting such If we
were in the swine growing business,
be, for indeed he should consider
himself too poor to be without this
profitable animal upon his premises.
Many make a mistake in allowing
their swine to run to the creek dur
ing the summer for water. We have
such a place upon our farm, and we
might save much time in getting wa
ter to our swine many times If we
allowed them to go to this water
course, but we are afraid of it. In
deed in this field we never allow our
swine to roam, for we do not know
what farmer several miles above US
In another district might have chol-
era or plague, and our animals ex-
posed by contamination in the water
flowing down stream.
We rather prefer to keep our ami
mails we'll away from this stream Of
water, and give them pure water
from the we'll in disinfected troughs,
thus doing our part toward keeping
down loss from cholera.
We keep down the Objectionable
and nauseating hog wallow upon our
farm and do not tolerate 1t in the
least We know the swine enjoy it,
but we have learned to detest it's
abominable company, and by chang
ing the animals about, and locating
new quarters frequently we keep this
mire of mud and filth abandoned.
With the advancement along other
lines of farm operations, the ad-
vancement in this line of work ap-
peals to us as very significant in keep
ing these animals in a sanitary and
healthful location at all times.

(By GEORGE w. BROWN, Ohio)
There is no theme upon the farm
that will 30 benefit the farmer as to
keep the quarters and surroundings
Of the farm In sanitary and health
full condition where swine are kept.
Nowhere will an outbreak Of chol-
era become so disastrous as upon the
farm where these animals are kept
with dirty, filthy surroundings, and
no care taken in the disinfection of
the nesting places and slop troughs
during the summer time.
Upon our farm we have never prac
ticed the method of keeping a herd
of swine in one place very long, and
never do we fatten out more than one
in one year, preferring rather to shift
our operations about from place to
place.
We have no permanent quarters,
but rely upon the service Of the cot,
shown in the illustration.
These hunks can be shifted about
easily upon runners, and many times
each year are changed from one field
to another, or from one pen to an
other, thus We always have the ami
mails in fresh sleeping quarters, and
upon fresh forage. While the animals
are located upon new range, we
break up the old range, cropping it
in some profitable farm crop, thus get
ting the benefit of all excrement from
the animals, profiting in its enrich
ment of the soil, and we as well.
freshening and sweetening the soil
by cultivation
Then swine should be supplied with
some shade aside from board shell
ter to ward off the heated rays of
the summer sun. There is nothing
for this purpose quite SO nice as
clumps of willows, catalpas or pop
lars grown in some convenient loca-
ton in each field, preferably along the
fence row, in such manner that the
animals may have access to the cool
ing shade during the heat Of the day.

A Wonderful Cave of Ice.

No one knows how many wonderful
caves, more extensive, perhaps, than
the vast mammoth cave of Kentucky,
vet remain to be discovered. Not long
ago some boys accidentally found the
entrance to a marvellous cavern of ice
az the foot of Cow mountain in Colo
RADIO. Three great chambers of it al
ready have been opened, the walls
and ceilings of which are covered with
great masses of ice in grotesque
forms. In the center of one of the
rooms is a lake nearly fifty feet
square with no apparent outlet.
What an excellent refrigerator such
a cave would make! 1t would supply
the needs of a whole city.

distance of sixty or seventy miles.
The materials employed made a stack
thirty feet high and thirty feet square.
There were used in building this pile
$50 fagots, twelve poplar trees. two
tons of coal, five cords of wood. four
loads OF hoop poles, ego loads of
furze, two barrels of tar, twelve empty
fer barrels and a barrel of naphtha
This mass of inflammable material

PROPER PLACE
FOR CHICKENS
Should Not be Allowed to Roost On
Top of Harness or Buggy
Should Have Good
House.

One Of the most important things
in the care of laying hens is the
house that they are to live in. On
most farms. it used to be that the hen
roasted any old place, and her favor
tie place was on top Of the harness
or buggy. And when they could not
reach their favorite place, they took
to the trees, but / can say that the
hens life on the farm has changed,
for now you see nice houses and
yards for them, says writer In the
Successful Farming.
A good poultry house may be de-
fined as one that is dry, warm and
ventilated, and fitted to accommodate
the kind of fowls that is to be kept.
A stationary house suitable for any
kind of fowl may be built Of stone or
brick, but the best house is built OF
lumber made In size suitable for
moving once year at least Lumber
is cheaper than brick or stone, and
when you find that there is some i'm
provement that you could make to the
advantage of the hen and coop, it will
be a good deal cheaper remodeling
the wooden building.
1t is impossible to build house
that will answer for all times of the
year. You will find alterations to
make in spring and fall, SO when wood
Is used in its construction 1t can be
built In sections and bolted together.
In warm weather you can use wire
frames in place of the board sections.
Give the hens plenty of room, lots of
clean straw to be used as scratching
material, fight lice nine days week,
and see If the hens don't pay theu
way.

of electing and expelling members,

put out again several times a week.

pay dues, but he doesn't have to come
unless he can" This implied merely
that Tom was exempt from being
seized by the neck and brought into
the meeting without his own volition.
"And, you see, he's got to be honor
able" added the small boy, severely.
We've got dollar" he continued,
Gin the treasurer! Has your club got
any more than that?"
"a little more" meekly replied the
aunt, whose club is one of the largest
in the country.
