Of pasture for hogs been fully appre-
ciated. In some feeding tests which
have been conducted by the Missouri

three years with hogs on pasture IL was
found that clover pasture gave a re-
turn Of S34 per acre per year. oats and
rape 500. corn and cowpeas $50 and
blue grass pasture ST. In view Of such
showing as this. Il would seem as
though many a farmer might probably
convert a portion OF his corn and grain
fields into hog pastures.

he would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another would come
until his face was covered with them
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but 1t did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say 1t hurt. We hardly knew him.
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. SO l begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them
The next morning ] made strong
soap suds with Cuticura Scap and
washed his face in the warm suds.
The little blisters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After l had his
face washed, l put the Cuticura ONT
ment on and In short time his little
face was all red and dry. kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got as
well and 1t did not leave a scar. He
was entirely cured In about one week

POPULAR SYMBOL OF VALUE
Young Man Evidently Was Lacking In
His Appreciation Of the Coun-

There is plenty Of food for cynical
thoughts in the national capital, as Is
shown by the following incident which
happened on a Washington street car:
A worldly young man, prone to crit
icise, was gazing at the advertise
ments which decorate the interior Of
the car. One advertised a new kind
of collar for men. The dome of the
capitol was represented encircled by
one OF the collars, and on the SEN
ate and house wings Of the build
ing were placards giving prices and
sizes. The placard on the senate end
OF the capitol read, Quarter size"
and that on the other end said, Two
for quarter
The worldly cynical young man
turned to his companion.

MOISTURE is GREAT FACTOR
Twelve or Fifteen Inches at Very
Least 10 Necessary to Insure
Crop Every Season.

(By M. J. GREELEY, South DakotA.)
Those in the dry regions who have
been so fortunate as to have had mois
ture enough to grow pretty good
crop every year for the past few.
should not be too sanguine that they
may not have to summer fallow, and
like other dry-farmers, attempt a crop
only every other year. 1t takes mois-
ture, and at the very least above IL
or 10 inches Of it. to insure a crok
every season, and when this amount
does not fall at about the right time,
a crop cannot be grown and mature.

soil and local moisture can we know

Alfalfa Dairy Ration

Don't be afraid to feed the alfalfa
grown on the farm to the dairy herd.
Alfalfa with silage, or alfalfa alone is
the best ration with which you can
supply the dairy COW 1t is a poor
COW, says Kansas Farmer, that will
not return profit on alfalfa at an
average price of alfalfa and butter fat
for a ten-year period. Too much al.
falfa is grown for sale In Kansas.
1t is better for the farm and more
profitable. we believe, to grow and
sell alfalfa than to grow and sell
wheat. but we should feed all the al.
falfa our live stock requires, not, OF
course, to be wasteful Careful feed
Ing of alfalfa TO good animal will In
the long run pay better than lu

Matter Of Justice.
white and colored."

Where shall justice begin, with
those who have power or with those
who suffer wrong? If exact and ideal
Justice were done, the weak would
make an effort to give to the strong
all that is their due, and the strong
would try to put their affairs in order
so that no Just cause of complaint
should exist anywhere. The unhappy
element in the relations of the strong
and the weak is that both are think
ing too much about exactlng Justice
and not enough about doing that
which is just and right. PAY what
thou owest" is the cry most often
heard. Give me that which is my
due. then will pay you what I owe"
