HAD A CLOSE CALL

Mr.. V. J. Boriskie, who lives near
College. had a close call for his life
the other night while the telephone
and electric light wires were crossed
at the college. When he came home
about 10 o'clock at night he smelled
something burning and ran to his
store, which is just across the road
from his house. He found the store
full of smoke and saw sparks splut-
tering from the telephone wire.
Taking pair of wire cutters, he
fastened to the wire where it entered
the building from the outside and
quickly cut it. In doing so, however,
he received the full shock of the cur
rent, was knocked to the ground and
remained unconscious for some time
He regards his escape from death as
miraculous and is truly thankful.

FEED FOR EGG PRODUCTION.

that exercise is essential TO egg pro-

During the winte', when birds are
confined to the housls. and with HOOKS

feeder strives to o'ercome any bad
effect of these conditions by selecting
a system OF feeding that will force
them to take exercise. II was with

consists OF combination OF grains

dry mash before the birds at all times.
For each 100 birS four quarts OF

the morning. two quarts each OF
wheat and oats at d o'clock.

PREVENT CHOLERA
By Breeding Up Your Hog to the
Proper Degree of Robustness.

For a number of years the breeders
of the country bred exclusively for
fat production In this way they sue
cccdcd in breeding most of the vigor-
Gus onstitution out of hogs. They
got what they bred fora round, bar
rel BODY. with spindle legs, and fine
" chisseled head, with artistic ears.
But they also got what they did not
intend-a weakened heart, tiabby mus
Giles. and general lack of bodily
yigor
A few years ago the danger to be
expected from such breeding caused
change OF front among the breed
ers, and now they are breeding to the
big, bony, coarser type.
But this process has not yet gone
far enough to correct the evils bred
for so many years into preceding gen
erations OF hogs. We must carry this
