A Dollar For happiness

The following is from the Marshall
town, (Ia.) Times Republican, under
the heading, Buy a Dollars Worth OF
Gratitude"
One of the easiest things a young
fellow does is to let loose 81 for a bit
of fun. A dollar isn't much and five
dollars aren't many. There are lots of
ways that a young fellow car get rid of
a $40 bill. A few extra dollars on the
winter outfit. a trip to another town. a
short session some evening when some
body proposed penny ante or 5 cent
points at rum" There are lots of
ways better and worse to make a $40
bill look like 80 cents. BY the way, it
might be mentioned in passing that
careless older persons find the process
quite as easy as the younger fellows.
The difference is hat they miss it mor
when the grocery bill and other obliga-
tons show up on the first of the month.
Now a couple of dollars isn't much to
a young fellow. Sure he can spare
them when bill" imparts the inform
alton that he is dead broke. But when
you figure out what a couple of dollars
would do if spent for the Christmas
pleasure of a little child who has no
Christmas ahead 81 go a long ways.
Spent in toys they would scatter hap
piness over a houseful of lonely little
kids. They would feed a family of
children we'll. Say. young fellow you
haven't the remotest idea of what you
could do with a couple of bones" until
you have tried. What two of those
Iron men" spent for a kids benefit
and to make Christmas Christmas will
last as long as that child lives in a
grateful memory of the n who re-
membered him. Go back over your
boyhood and recall some minor kindness
done you and take note how you re-
member the man and the deed. 1t was
worth his while to buy a kindly memory
at such small expense. don't you think?
Wouldn't it be a good bargain for you
to create a place in some little kids
memories. to find and touch a
spot in the withered breast OF
s7me desolate old man or woman? Isn't
it worth 81. or S2.or even So of those
dollars that 1.-The boys" let loose of

And honest. isn't it the most
p%rincely thing on the face of the earth
to make some n happy and keep alive
in those who suffer their f%altering faith
in human kindness?
Young fellow. tryit. 1t does not cost
much. It's worth the chance. Fact is
that there isn't any chance about it.
1t is a sure winner. Hunt up somebody
who needs you. Invest 81 or 81 in
gratitude. You'll never have a heart
ache over the investment.

FEEDING YOUNG sows.
An Abundance Of Nutritious Food
Needed For Development.

An Abundance OF Nutritious Food
Needed For Development.
1t is held by most farmers that the
brood SOW must be kept in thin flesh.
Following this rule, which is good in a
way. many farmers allow the sows an
insufficient amount of feed, and hence
both SOW and pigs suffer, writes w. III.
Underwood in the Iowa Homestead.
Also the young SOW farrows before
she is mature in size. and through light
feeding she never attains the size and
breeding capacity that she would had
she been given larger amounts of feed
during all her growing period.
The SOW for several we'll understood
reasons should not be kept too fat. es-
pecially at farrowing time. She has.
however. large demands placed upon
her and hence requires large amounts
OF feed to Sustain normal vitality. She
needs much feed during pregnancy for
the development of the nborn pigs
and for her w vital needs.
After the pigs are born. during the
sucking period. the SOW requires an
extra large amount of nutritious feed
In order to furnish a full flow of milk
for the little pigs and maintain her
" flesh.
Too often the SOW at the close of the
sucking period becomes poor and de-
pleted in strength. Frequently she is alb
solutely exhausted and requires many
weeks to regain flesh and strength. if
It is possible to regain all the loss.
There is no doubt but that this fire.
Quent flesh and vitality weakening inn
pairs the health and value of the ami
NAL. We're she kept In good round

tlesh at all times there is no question
but that she would live longer and be
more productive in advanced years.
The young SOW often grows until
after her second or~third litter of pigs.
Then is the period when maternity
tells on an animal the most. IL to the
physical drain of giving birth to pigs
and sucking them is added the stunt
ing effect Of too light feeding the
young SOW cannot possibly attain her
highest development This will not
only affect her future earning power.
but will also affect the profits in her
pigs. They will to some extent inherit
her undersize and weakness, and the
future stock will be small and poor.
II the young SOW is kept in good.
round flesh until after full maturity
she will have a chance to develop into
a large mother animal and be able to
transmit her size and strong vitality
to her offspring. II she carries an
abundance Of flesh and some fat nearly
equal to that of the prime finished hog
for market she will have a surplus for
the draining weeks of maternity and
not become 81 poor at any time that
her system is materially weakened.
It Is much easier to maintain a SOW
In good flesh than to restore 1t after
1t has been lost. and it is better in
every way for the animal. A good
SOW may be fully half the herd in CIV
ing quality to the pigs IL she is given
sufficient feed aud care to make mani
fest her full powers.
