No animals enjoy freedom more In
the summer than hogs, but their
desires are altogether different in win

quarters, which may be accepted as
altogether suitable for them.
No one need ever look for the pigs
on windy hill-tops when winter sets
in, but If any disappear they are al
most sure to be found in the best Pro-
tected and snug spot within their
reach.
Warning words are often given not
to have sows narrowing in the short

as they can make no progress against
low temperatures.
In summer pigs at large pick up a
great deal of their food in the fields,
but little is available now that Will do

KANSAS GOOD ROADS ASSOCIATION
HOLDS A VERY SUCCESSFUL MEETING
CAN'T SELL THE POLICY.
Fire Insurance Not Transferable Un'
less by Company's Consent.

Topeka, Kan.-"Wnen man buys
a house and has the fire insurance pol
icy on the property transferred to him,
he should remer' Der that it is neces-
sary to have the consent of the in
surance company to the transfer OF
the policy" says 1. S. Lewis, state
superintendent Of insurance.
"a fire insurance policy on house
becomes void when the place is trans
ferred to another party, and is revived
by being assigned by the man who sold
tho house to the man who purchased
it, and the consent of the insurance
company to the transfer of the policy.
For one man to simply assign to an
other the policy on a house which he
sells, desn't insure the purchaser. The
insurance company insured the man
against fire, who owned the house
when the policy was written. 1t didn't
insure any future purchaser, and does
not know him.

LIGHT NEEDED
FOR ALL TREES
Il influences Transportation al q
Consequently Meta boIisnt OF
Green Plants Other
Effects.

Light is said to be Absolutely IN.
dispensable for the life and growth of
trees. In common with other green
plants, tree, in order to live, must
produce organic substance for the
building of new tissues. Certain low
forms of vegetable life, such as ban-
terra and fungi, do not require light.
They exist by absorbing organic sub
stance from other living bodies; the
higher forms of plants manufacture
their own organic material by extract
ing carbon from the air. The leaves,
through the agency of their chloro-
rhyll, or green colorirg matter, abb
sorb from the air carbon dioxide, and
give off a nearly equal volume of
oxygen. The carbon dioxide is then
broken up into its elements and con-
verted into organic substances which
are used in building up new tissues.
Light also influences Transportation,
and consequently the metabolism of
green plants. 1t influences largely the
structure, the form, and the color OF
the leaf, and the form of the stem
and it largely determines the height
growth of trees, the rate at which
stands thin out with age, the progress
of natural pruning, the character of
the living ground cover, the vigor OF
young tree growth, the existence OF
several storied forest, and many other
phenomena upon which the manage
ment of forests depends. A thorough
understanding, therefore. Of the effect
of light upon the life OF Individual
trees, and especially on trees in the
forest, and a knowledge of the meth
DDS by which the extent Of this effect
can be determined are essential fol
successful cultural operations In the
forest.

Live stock is the foundation Of all
systems Of permanent agriculture and
agriculture is, in turn, the base upon
which rests the superstructure of all
national prosperity.
No country on earth has ever con-
tinued to prosper without live stock
as vitality important part of it's ag-
riculture and none can do so. The
crops from the soil supply nutrition
for the animal body and the waste
products of our barns and feed lots
furnish food for the plants. Neither
can long exist without the other.
The grain farmer fourishes for d
time, but with every load OF grain he
sends to market he sells portion Of
his farm. If not during his lifetime,
then in the time of his children, will
his farm become worn and worthless.
High-priced land or high-priced
feeding stuffs should not shorten the
production Of live stock. The cheap
cattle of the ranges were possible
only because of the cheapness of the
land. With the increase in the price

The HOME LIFE OF The
SETTLER
WESTERN CANADA AFFORDS ALL
THE COMFORTS AND MANY OF
THE LUXURlES. MA

A young lady of Wisconsin secured
a certificate at the Milwaukee office
of the Canadian Government, and on
presenting this to the ticket agent OF
the railway at the Canadian boundary
line she secured ticket at reduced
rate which carried her to Edmonton
Alberta, from which point, about for
ty miles, she had friends. This was
couple of years ago, and the young
lady Is now married to one OF the
promising young farmers of the dis
trict
In writing of her trip to the Mil
waukee representatives OF the Cana
dian Government she says Il enjoyed
my trip up here very much, and ex-
pect to go out to our homestead in
the Pembina district next spring" To
the housewife the information that
she has put up twelve quarts OF rasp-
berries" is important, as they picked
them themselves" and they might
have picked ten times the quantity II
they had required them, for there is
no country where wild fruit grows in
such abundance. The letter goes on
to say and this is interesting from a
woman's standpoint, "the country Is
very beautiful" Speaking Of the
friends with whom she went up to
live, she says: "They certainly have
q beautiful farm and house"-they
had been there about four years, also
going from Wisconsin-"they have
about twenty acres of oats and bar
ley, five acres alfalfa, three acres po-
tatoes and don't know how many OF
vegetables. l think they have about
forty acres under cultivation altogeth-
err They are now draining a slough
which they will afterwards pillow and
put into fall wheat. They also have
large herd of cattle, and Mrs. G.
has about 100 chickens. They make
on an average Of 30 pounds OF butter
every week. l never saw such grand
cream"
Now these people are enjoying life
in Alberta; they have splendid eli
mate, excellent prospects, and are
happy that they are part and parcel
in the working out of the upbuilding
of new country, that will take its
place amongst the progressive coun-
tries of the century. Numbers OF let
tiers that express satisfaction as ex-
IRENE as the one quoted appear in
literature sent out by the Canadian
Government and which may be had
on application to any of its agents.

of land has come an improvement and
more general distribution of high
class cattle anad these are rlore prof
table and more economical than tn 0
range steer ever was or could be-
come.
Farmers generally are conservA-
tive people and this is ole of their
most valued characteristics, yet it
seems to stand in their own way at
times. The farmer who gives thought
to the matter can easily see how i'm
possible 1t is for him to hope for sue
cess in raising cheap, poorly bred and
hard feeding animals on his high
priced land.
On the other hand, he can easily
see that good animal which will put
on flesh rapidly and that OF the high
est quality and which will reach a
marketable condition in few MONTHS
instead Of several years, is the only
one he can afford to grow.
The farmer must have live stock
and present conditions demand that
he keep good live stock or fail.

ment, while chills hinder or are In
deed dangerous.
Some have fashion of letting the
pigs run about the yard In winter,
sometimes shutting them In at night,
and in other cases letting them find
their own accommodations, but this is
bad way.
They certainly make themselves
most comfortable at times, but the
exposure which is equally freely In
dllged in has the reverse of salts
factory result, and it is much better
to confne them all to their proper
quarters.
These should be in good order, wi h
absolutely waterproof roofs and sur
roundings that will prevent dranghta.
There should be no holes in the fooI s,
as these make the bedding muck ve,y
quickly, and comfort is thereby re-
duced and progress impeded.
