pounds of corn. Begin with light
ration and work up gradually to the
maximum. They should be ready to
market the latter part of July.
Prime corn-fed cattle are scarce
during the summer, as most of the
feeders in the lots are finished and
shipped out before this time. The
packers must have cattle with some
finish, and they pay a good price to
get them. Coming on the market at
this time. the steers fed on grass Will
bring almost as good a price as stock
fed full grain ration In dry lot.
The success of this plan of feeding
is due to the low price at which the
cattle can be bought and the thin con-
dition of the animals coming in the
common class of feeders. Making eco
nomical gains is not breed but a
type characteristic. Often the best
and poorest gains made are by indi-
viduals of the same breed.
Less labor is required with summer
feeding. The cattle gather their
roughage, and the manure produced
by them is distributed, and evenly. In
winter, dry-lot-feeding steers are fed
a ration of Is to 90 pounds of, grain
and to pounds of hay apiece, when
on full feed.

HOGS REQUIRE
GOOD PASTURE
Every Farmer Having Swine
Should Sow Patch of Rape
Seed to Make Suit.
able Grazing.

Hogs require green food along with
moderate amount of grain; but they
will keep in good. thrifty condition
during the summer months on clover
and grass Alone Every farmer having
hogs should SOW a patch of Essex
rape seed. Sow four pounds of clean,
new crop seed to the acre; the ground
must be deep, finely pulverized and in
good order. In ten weeks from SOW
ing this makes a good pig pasture and
good grazing; the pigs will grow fast
and will be kept healthy. When fed
on rape the pigs should have at all
times mixture of wood and coal
ashes, mixing one handful of salt and
one of sulphur in each peck of ashes.
The fattening properties of rape are
probably twice as good as those of
clover. Last falls pigs should be CIV
en- fine-cut clover hay, mixed with
wheat bran and wheat middlings.
Mix with boiling water. A few small
ears of corn may be given after the
mixed feed is eaten. Have the pens
clean and dry; give thick bed of
dry leaves or cut straw. They should
have fresh water daily. Expert breed
ers give the following mixture to their
hogs; they consider 1t better than
wood and coal ashes alone: Ten
pounds of burnt bones, 10 pounds OF
water and 10 pounds of sulphuric acid.
The burnt bones are put into an iron
pot and moistened with the water;
the acid is then slowly poured over
the mass and well stirred in. Great
care must be used in handling the
acid, as the least drop on the hand
will burn like fire. Mix this with an
equal quantity Of freshly burnt hard
wood ashes; let the pigs have little
of this mixture twice week. 1t is
especially good for pigs troubled with
tumors caused by eating too much
corn. Have a grass pasture or dry
yard adjoining the pens. as they must
have plenty of exercise to keep them
in good, thrifty condition.

Choice beef can be produced with
less high-priced feed. and at lower
cost, than 1t is produced by most feed
ers, thinks P. N. Flint, assistant pro-
fessor OF animal husbandry at the
Kansas Agricultural college. Pro-
fessor Flint believes in less expen-
sive method of fattening. in which
grass is the principal diet.
The common feeding practice of
many of the farmers of the corn belt
is an expensive process. The cattle
are fed during the winter months.
Sheds have to be provided for shelter.
The cost OF hauling and feeding the
roughage for the cattle when in dry
lot is not a small item. Bad weather
is another Objectionable feature-more
feed is required by steer to make
the same gain.
The feeding practice for more profit
is this: Common feeders-Cattle in
thin fiesh-may be bought at a low
price. Get steers two or three years
old. Feed them plenty of roughage to
keep them in good condition until they
are turned out on grass. A few hours
day on pasture is long enough at
first. until their systems get accus-
toned to the change. Feed the steers
running on grass a ration of to IA

CHEESE DENOTES THEIR RANK
Swiss Family Found Without Aged
Variety Of Deilcacy 10
Scorned.

Lucerne.-The English, the Ger
mans, and the Norwegians are great
consumers OF cheese but the people
OF Switzerland surpass them all. The
cheese OF Zermatt is 30 hard that one
is obliged to scrape 1t or cut or chunks
with a hatchet. and its use is con-
sidered most important on all cere-
monious occasions. The rank OF
Swiss family is known by the ege OF
its cheese, and the more affection or
respect guest inspires the harder is
the cheese which IL cut in his honor.
1t is said that there are families in
Switzerland whose cheeses date from
the first French revolution. and these
are served only at baptisms. weddings
and after funerals.
The larder in every FAMILY is guard
ed with care and the cheese is named.
Upon the birth OF new heir cheese
is made that takes the name given
him or her, and that particular cheese
is never under any circumstances cut
until the boy or girl grows up and is
married. On such occasions each OF
the guests takes a piece OF cheese
from the bridegroom and from the
bride and drinks to their felicity, the
cheese held aloft.-Harper's Weekly.

A young lady living in a small city
had impaired her health by too con-
fining work in city office, says
Christian Herald. Her physician or
dered her to a sanitarium for rest and
upbuilding, and when she returned to
work he instructed her to eat four
fresh-laid eggs daily; two eggs for
breakfast. and the others raw, in milk.
Finding it difficult to obtain depend
ably fresh eggs, she persuaded her
mother to permit her having a small
flock in the home yard. A portable
house was purchased and fifteen pull
let's installed in it. A small brother
was paid 10 cents a week to feed and
care for the flock, two bags of ready
mixed food were bought, and the re-
suit of the venture was not only all
the eggs the young lady needed and a
supply for the family, but there was a
surplus which found ready market
at the corner drug store, bringing 10
cents dozen above the market price.

about ten miles from Engedi lies
the peerless natural fortress of Ma

ravine.
"The fortress. which is 1,700 miles
