Turtle hunting Is not without en-
element. The method Of capture con-
sists Of the simple act Of turning the
turtle on its back. Once in this posi-
ton It Is quite helpless. Its only de-
Tense Is to cover its captor with sand
thrown up by the powerful front legs
or clippers. These are brought into
action In an instant, and woe betide
the captor who has his eyes and mouth
open at the moment. for the sand is
hurled with great force. When turned
over the captive is dragged up the

The pig that has been supplied with
an abundance OF pasture and small
grain ration during the summer
should weigh from $50 to 175 pounds
by tho latter part Of September. A
short period Of heavy feeding will
finish them for market at 200 to 275
pounds in weight Pork grown In
this way will yield far more profit
than where the process Is strung out
longer and the hogs are finished to
heavier weights. The cheapest gains
are always made while the pig is
young. II is poor policy to starve and
stunt pig during the first few
months, expecting to make 1t up by
heavy feeding later. The 100 pound
pig makes gains 20 per cent cheaper
than the 200 pound pig II equally

Quite number of our friends of both
political parties, have been guying us
over the general appearance of our
rooster which appeared last week on
6rst page. The fact is a-did lsok a
little on the shoddy order not showing
perfect marks OF the Game, but all the
same we placed him on deck. This
rooster was purchased few years ago
by a member of this Office who antici-
pated a great Democratic victory in
which strength rather than beauty,
would be the dominating significance OF
our emblem, at that time, in announcing
party victory.
1t SO happened that defeat was ours
and our rooster was therefore placed
in cold storage where he has been un-
der chilly conditions for more than four
years, SO in part, this is one reason
why his plumage showed imperfection
and his force not in keeping with his
family. The tide has turned and there
is abundance of evidence that he will be
expected, year hence, to again ap-
pear, and as he is now in the open in the
balmy and invigorating atmosphere of
liberty, in plain view of the richest
harvest ever enjoyed by his tribe. he
will be in perfect form and to the liking
of the most exacting. The days OF his
moulting have passed, his plumage re-
turning in perfect order and feeding on
the growing demands of "equal rights
to all and exclusive privileges to none
he can not fail of the greatest develop
ment and highest efficiency in blessing
our country, for he has no organic OF
constitutional defects in his makeup.
Watch him grow and develop power,
gameness and beauty.
