The Brood Sow at narrowing

A large number of pigs are lost an
nually because Of lack of proper atten-
ton at farrowing time. The farrowing
pen should be OF only moderate size.
Many of our successful hog raisers use
a pen not over six by ten feet. A guard
rail placed eight inches from the foer
and the same distance from the wall
will save the lives of great many pigs
that would be crushed without this
protection. An excessive amount OF
straw in the pen is undesirable, as some
of the young pigs may burrow into it
and be smothered by the sows lying on
them. The sow's ration should be re-
duced about one-half shortly before
farrowing, and it should consist of slop-
DIV feed that will tend to loosen the
bowels. An abundant supply OF water
should be before her to relieve the in
evitable condition that occurs at that
time. In extremely cold weather the
young pigs are likely to become chilled
and may die if they do not receive ex-
ira attention. A little care at this time
will save the lives Of a great many pigs
and pay excellent returns for the slight
effort involved. A few bricks should
be heated, wrapped in sack and plac-
ed in the bottom OF basket. Any pigs
that appear chilled or too weak to nurse
should be placed in the basket. An
hour or so of this treatment should
serve to revive the young porker and
after he then gets to nurse the dam his
chances to reach maturity are increased
fourfold. A light ration for the SOW is
desirable for twenty-four hours after far
rowing, and it should be of a cooling
nature. Then gradually bring her up
to full ration of nutritious food that
will tend to produce a good supply of
milk for the young pigs. Wheat shorts,
middlings and some bran can be used,
and if skim milk is available it can be
used very advantageously with the feed
mentioned. If pasturage is not avail
able at farrowing time alfalfa hay will
do very we'll as a substitute. This feud
is very desirable as it is relatively cheap
and goes to furnish those elements that
build up the young pigs frame and
muscle at very reasonable cost.

Many Leavenworth people have

ly to turn into appendicitis. If you
have constipation, sour stomach, or gas
on the stomach, try simple buckthorn
bark, glycerine, etc., as compounded

simple remedy relieves bowel or stom-

THE CIRCUS-OAy PARADE
BY James Whitcopb Riley

Oh. the Circus Day parade How the
Uugles played and played!
And how the glossy horses tossed
their fiossy names, and neighed,
As the rattle and the rhyme of the
,enor- drummer's time
Filled all the hungry hearts of us
with melody sublime
How the grand band-wagon shone
with a splendor all it's own,
An elittered with glory that our
dreams had never known!
And how the boys behind, high and
low of every kind.
Marched lin unconscious capture.
with rapture underlined!
How the horsemen, two and two, with
their plumes of white and blue
And crimson. gold and purple, nod
ding by at me and you,
Waved the banners that they bore, as
the knights in days or yore.
Till cur glad eyes cleaned and glis-
tened like the spangles that
they worel
How the graceless- graceful stride of
the elephant was eyed.
And the capers of the little horse
that cantered at his side!
How the stumbling camels. tame to
The plaudits of their fame.
With listless eyes came silent, mas
Heating as they came.
How the cages jolted past, with each
wagon battened fast.
And the mystery within IT only hint
ed OF at last
From the grated square in the rear,
and nosing there
The snout OF some strange animal
that shifted the outer air!
And. last Of all. The Clown. making
mirth for all the town,
With his lips curved upward and
his eyebrows down.
And his chief attention paid TO the lit
tie mule that played
A tattoo on the dashboard with his
heels, in the parade.
OH the Circus Day parade! How the
bugies played and played!
And how the glossy horses tossed
their hossy names and neighed.
As the rattle and the rhyme of the
tenor drummer's time
Filled all the hungry hearts of us
with melody sublime!
