one touched some lemon juice; anoth-

These they found to be alkaline; that

KEEPING UP THE

By pRoF. G. c. HuMPHRsY.

In order to keep up the milk flow

ADVICE ON SELLING
PURE BRED HOGS
BY PROF. j. c. FULLER,

wisconsin college, OF agriculture.
Many breeders of pure bred hogs
are tempted to sell every animal that
can register, regardless of quality. II
this practice is carried out, however,
not only is a great injustice done to
the breed but the breeder runs the risk
of losing his reputation and then find
Ing himself unable to sell his sur
plus. Every conscientious breeder
culls at least 10 per cent. Of his herd
and some are known to send over so
per cent. to the butcher.
Extravagant prices are sometimes
paid for especially good animals, but
the beginner will find 1t safest to de-
mand only reasonable prices 1t Is
very unwise to be satisfied with little
better than pork rates, however. for
that will IN the end be unjust to fell
low breeders and retards improve
ment. Breeding stock should be
worth at lest 90 per cent. more than
butcher stock and even more in the
case OF mail orders, when advertising

oh, no, the Democrats in Con-
gress are not bit extrayagant, nor
needless of their party platform
pledges. They are squandering the
public money so recklessly and SO
absurdly as to make extravaganza a
feeble, inappropriate term for their
course. The enormous pork bill is
glaring example, but not the only
one. The postofice appropriation
bill has been padded to nearly three
hundred million dollars, an amount
several millions in excess of the last
postofice appropriation bill.
Unul recently it was the custom in
Congress not to provide for any
public buildings in towns where
postal receipts amounted to less
than $4,000 per annum. This
rule has been broken to pieces and
thrown to the four winds by the
present ''saviors of the country"
There are actually ninety-six viola
