and Climbing for Living.

Lack OF exercise is one of the fac,
tors in the physical deterioration OF
the breed Of hogs,
Not one breeder in n dozen allows
or compels his breeding hogs to take
adequate exercise.
Hogs, like men, gradually degen-
crate under conditions OF artificial
luxury. Any animal that can live
without work will ultimately become
extinct This applies 70 every form
of life. Labor is the price which lie
must pay for itself.
Exercise is absolutely essential to
the maintenance of health, yigor and
fecundlty IN hogs.
Breeding hogs kept in small pas
lures or pens, and literally fed, lose
the power TO transmit the highest
viriIity and vital integrity to their Oft
spring.
It Is n serious mistake to contine
breeding hogs where the necessity for
regular exercise does not exist. Sows
nearing parturition should of course
be confined, but all young things and
other immature members Of the herd
should be compelled to do a deal OF

There are many indications Of a
tendency to change other long estab.

japanese women and it does not seem
rash to predict the abolition Of the
obi, the tremendously large, heavy and
often very eypensice girdle, with
which a japanese lady encircies her
waist and which in the eyes of most
foreigners detracts SO much from the
grace OF her movement.

Dairy utensils can be made thor.

Tho most economical way to save
