LOSS OF FEBRUARY LITTER
Wisconsin Swine Breeder Makes Fall
ure by Feeding Corn Meal to
Youngsters Too Soon.

A Wisconsin swine breeder, in an
endeavor to get his pigs in market
condition as early as possible in the
fall, had several sows farroW in Feb.
ruary. The sows and young ones
were confined in small breeding pens
in large barn which was kept warm
by steam heat
The little pigs grew Justify, but the
breeder began feeding them corn meal
before they were weaned. This fat,
tening food, in Connection with the
lack of exercise, not only disabled the
sows but brought the youngsters
down with the thumps. The litter was
almost total loss.
This loss might easily have been
prevented. Had the little pigs beer
provided with a large, roomy pen and
forced to take exercise, and had they
been fed on heterogeneous foods rather
than corn, they would have entered
the spring pasture in fair condition
for summer gains, not as good, per.
haps, as the later farrowed filters, but
good enough to justify the extra trou'
BILE entailed in raising them.
If a swine breeder cannot provide
early filters with warm accommoda.
lions and an exercising place il
would be cheaper in the end to kill
them as soon as born.

LEARNING TEXTURE OF SOFT
Interesting and Valuable Experiment
May Be Made by Use of Three
Old Discarded Cars

If any one wishes to prove to him
self how much more water some soils
will hold than others. let him take
three tomato cans of the same size.
With nail punch a half dozen holes
in the bottom of each. Then fill all
three cans, one with sand. one with
still clay and the other with a rich
loan soil well filed with humus.
If such soil as the last cannot be
had, then fill the can with the dark,
rich top soil from the woods lot,
after scraping away the leaves and
other coarse materials Pack the soil
in all of them down solid, and put in
all they will hold. Put these cans of
soil in some. place where they will
dry out thoroughly. A good place is
in the kitchen behind the stove
When they are all well dried, pour
a half pint of water slowly over the
top Of each can of soil. Repeat this,
putting the same amount of water on
each soil, until the water begins to
trickle from the holes in the bottom
of the cans.
The water will begin to run from
the can containing sand first, anC if
this can be placed so that the water
can be caught and measured it can
be told how much less water this
sand will hold than the clay soil, and
by the same method it may be seen
how much more water the soil full
of humus viii hold than even a heavy
clay soil devoid of humus.

DOWN TO THE BARE FACTS
Young Minister'S Passion for Self-Sac-

Have Been Anticipated.

The announcement of Miss Helen
Miller Gould's betrothal led one of the
charity workers of New York to say
Marriage itself will not be able to
quench Miss Gould's passion for Civ
ing. Apropos to this passion, she once
told me story.
There was a young minister, the
story ran, who, being poor and hav-
ing nothing else to give, used to give
away his clothes.
The young minister's district con-
tanned many needy men, and he would
give item shoes and socks. shirts and
coats, gloves, oyercoats and trousers.
Yes, time and again he would give
away his clothes, foolishly and reck-
lessly, piece by piece, until"

New CABBAGE VARIETY.

The Enkhuizen Glory cabbage is
receiving more attention, perhaps,
than any other variety introduced in
recent years, says a writer in an ex-
change. A few days ago I talked
with central Pennsylvania farmer
who is most enthusiastic regarding
its merits. The points of special in
terest and value which he mentioned
are that the heads seldom burst and
that they are almost as solid as Dan
ish Balihead. The plants are also
certain headers. The variety should
receive general trial throughout the
country. for it may replace some Of
The well-known standard varieties.

USEFUL INVENTION.

A Yorkshire farmer was paid by
check for some cattle he had sold. 1t
was the first time that it had ever
happened.
What's this?" he said.
Why, money for the beasts" said

The farmer stared and had to be
assured that if he took it to the bank
they would give him gold for it.
We'll" said he "Awu try, but If
it's wrong I'm thou'u hear about it.
The check was cashed, of course,
and the farmer went home happy, but
he could not sleep. He had seen a
wonderful thing, and it had excited
him. As soon as day broke he made
fore the cattledealer's house and woke
the dealer.

and here is what Professor Cochel
says of feeding it to draft horses:
Silage, which is made from mature
corn, is free from mold, has not been
exposed to air too long before feed
ing, and is properly supplemented with
other feeds which will make up the de.
ficiency in protein, can be fed to
horses with safety when care is used
to have them become gradually accus
toned to it.
Horses fed silage as a portion OF

A good Shropshire flock should aver
age nlle to ten pounds of wool
Do not attempt to winter more sheep
than can be done without crowding.
Many good, careful farmers find it
practical to hog off some of their corn.
The use of siIage for sheep feeding
purposes has been tried out to lin
tied extent
Keep the hogs quiet, clean and
comfortable if you expect the best gain
from the food supplied.
Be sure the flock has plenty of fresh
water. # the sheep drink from springs,
keep the approaches dry.
The more rapidly an animal is fat
tened the less quantity of food is nee
essary to sustain its vitality.
Select steers with short legs, for
fal and increase the killing percen-
tage.
If from well-nourished dam and
a healthy strain of animals the pigs
rarely need attention at narrowing
time
Hogs should not as rule be turned
into more corn at one time than they
can eat up clean in two or three
weeks.
AS general proposition It may be
said that the SOW that has pigs before
she is a year old will disappoint her
owner.
Get a pure bred sire Of some kind
this season. Start to make a speciality
of some breed of cattle, swine, sheen
or poultry.
Many of the commercial feeds are
perhaps as good as those grown on
the farm, but the profit is greater from
home grown feeds.
Be careful about feeding beet tops
to the cattle. Heavr fielding OF this
material is somewhat dangerous. as 1t
tends TO purge animals.

Ihe Colonel and the Bottle

The interesting statement Of the
earl Of Cromer in your number of
November 80 that there was "a to-
tai absence of any moral principle"
in DisraeH reminds me of an anecdote
about King Frederick the Great
During the seven years war a colonel
one day came to the king and de-
nounced another colonel for lack Of
strict principles and even an occasion
al addiction TO the bottle The king
listened, but said nothing. In the
course of the next battle the unprin-
cipled colonel led his regiment with
great genius and his men performed
marvels of bravery. while the regi-
ment Of the sober gentleman did not
achieve anything like success. When
on the next day the king met the
moral colonel he gaIloped up to him
and shouted, "Sauf er auch?" C'Why
don't you drink, too?")-London Spec

How to Break Up Brood no.

The best and quickest method of
breaking up broody hens is to build a
cage entirely Of laths, without any
solid floor to it, and hang or fasten
the cage up outdoors where the air
can pass through it. A hen treated
in this way will be broken from set
ting in a very few days and it is not
necessary to deprive her OF food or
water nor to nearly drown her in a tub
of water, as is done too often Broody
hens should not be starved, but fed all
they will eat. Heavy feeding starts
them laying quickly after their broodi-
ness has been ended. Starving them
delays egg production much longer

Proper and improper soil grading.
q, Soil to be graded; b, improper grad
ing, showing exposure of sUbsoii; C,
proper grading.
fetal means a soil which will ap-
proach in texture either of the types
recommended. Our effort should,
nevertheless, be directed to attaining
rs closely as possible these ideals.
Where a pure sand or a light
sandy soil is the only foundation for
the lawn a top dressing of two or
three inches of clay should be given
and incorporated with the first four
to six inches of the sand, and after
this, if possible, the area should be
used for the production Of some crop
which gives an abundance of vege-
table matter. In ATTITUDES south of
Washington, D. c., COW peas and soy
beans, and in districts north of this
red clover, vetches and Canada peas
are suitable for this type of soil i'm
provement. These crops if allowed to
occupy the land until their maximum
growth is attained and then plOwed
under, will act very beneficially upon
the structure of the soil in making it
more retentive of moisture, better
able to hold fertilizers applied to it,
and less liable to allow the green
sward upon it to be killed out in
times Of drouth
In establishing lawns all grading
should be done while the land is in
the rough, just after the first break
ing Of the soil by blowing. When the
surface soil is deep and the grading
slight no special care is required, but
where the soil is shallow or the re-
grading to be done considerable, care
must be exercised SO as not to make
the surface soil so shallow as to pre-
rent the proper growth of grass.

Met Lands

For management of wet lands the
usual advice is to tile drain them; but
an intelligent German farmer now liY-
ing in this country suggests that it
sometimes pays better to make arti-
fetal ponds In Germany, he says, an
acre in fish ponds is often reckoned
worth more than an acre in wheat
The dams can be built with farm la
Dor at small expense, and the ponds
add considerably to the beauty of the
scenery. Very often the ponds can be
used to some extent also for irriga-
ton, and irrigation will work won
ders.
