HELPING the Hoas.

It is throwing money away to beat
and bruise hogs, Lately the number
of crippled and bruised animals has
been lessened.
UP to a few months ago, many hogs
had to be rejected because Of bruised
or crippled conditions. Reports from
all over the country indicate that IN
recent months the methods of handling
hogs in transit have been materially
improved. The railroads have coop
Grated with the livestock men in Sc
curing this end.
The principal time Of danger in hog
traffic is during the winter when the
ground is frozen and slippery. Greater
care was taken in driving, loading and
unloading hogs during the winter sea
son, resulting, as statistics show, In
the savings Of injuries to thousands
of animals.
There are more slow hogs in the
summer than in the winter. because OF
the heat Hogs have tendency to lie
down when they become overheated
and they must not be heated with
whips, straps or clubs to force them
to travel Every blow means bruise,
every bruise a loss, and every loss. on
account Of bruises, means money
thrown away.
A good many hogs die during the
summer on account of not being prop
erly watered. When hogs become
overheated water should be thrown on
the ground, car floor the floor OF the
pen. which ever the case may be, out
under no circumstances should a
stream of water be played on their
backs This has tendency to cause
a quick congestion, often resulting In
death. especially SO in the case of ex-
tremeiy heavy hogs. If the water Is
thrown on the floor or on the hog 8
belly they will cool off much quicker.
The following list Of "don'ts' Is
timely:
Don't drive too rapidly.
Don't load or unload too hurriedly.
Don't lose patience when the animals
are slow or arbitrary.
Don't forget that bruised or Grip
piled hog often is not marketable.
A hog buyer of prominence in the
yards said:
Careless or brutal treatment OF hogs
is unknown in the Chicago stock
yards. but appears to be preVa-
lent, at least to some extent, In other
quarters. altho the number of injured
hogs received in Chicago has been
greatly reduced.
A whip cord or lump from beat
ing or kicking shows on the carcuss OF
:he hog which causes 1t often to be
rejected by the packers. This means a
loss Of course and serious one at
the high price.

The Strawpile
Don't Ovsrwork the Grass.


More good summer grazing Is spoiled
by turning stock in prematurely than
any other way and there is ADVICE
worth needing in the admonitfon OF q.
c. Humphrey of the Wisconsin expert
ment station when he condemns the
folly Of keeping animals in a haif-
starved condition depending upon
spring and the following summer sea
son TO make up what they have lost
during the winter.
According to Professor Humphrey,
good pasture does not come as soon
after winter as many seem to be-
lieve. The ground must have time TO
become thoroughly settled and warmed
up sufficiently for rapid growth OF
all vegetation before livestock can
be pastured probably. During this
time the grass will have made a good
start and more satisfactory and per-
manent pasture will result for the
whole season and stock will thrive bet
ter than can be hoped for il pasture

HAVING AN OCEAN
GOING YACHT BUILT

Col. and Mrs. ID. c. Jackling, at one
time residents of this place, but now
living in Salt Lake City, where the
former is one OF the officers of the
Utah Copper company. passed through
here a few days ago in their private
car, Cyprus" on their way home
from New York where Col. Jackling
had been to attend a meeting of the
directorate OF the company. In re-
sponse to an invitation sent them Dy
wire a day or so previously Mr.. and
Mrs. A. C. Dickinson met them on
their arrival at the railroad station
here and accompanied them as far
west as Malta, Colorado.
Col. Jackling is having built at the
Risdon Iron works at San Francisco
the twin screw yacht Cyprus" which
will be put into commission in Au-
gust OF this year. The Cyprus" will
be in all respects one Of the largest
and most palatially fitted up steam
yachts on the Pacific ocean and could
easily circumnayigate the globe. She
will be two hundred and thirty feet
in length and her engines will have
an indicated horse power OF three
thousand, five hundred. The Cyprus"
will embody all OF the latest features
in marine architecture and the fur
nishings will be o the most comfort
able and luxurious character; teak.
rosewood. mahogany and other i'm
ported woods being largely drawn up
on to add beauty to the interior. The
yacht has been named Cyprus from
the fact that II Is popularity supposed
that the first copper of which man
kind has any knowledge came from
the island of Cyprus in the MedIter-
ranean sea.
Col. Jackiing is very closely allied
with the Guggenheim interests in
Alaska, as well as in this country,
and has general management OF Its
copper mining there. in Utah. New
Mexico and other Dlacez: rendering
him one of the busiest men in the
country.
