soon as they begin to eat. When .
good pasture is available and the
mother is fed liberally of the proper
feeds, the little pigs will need little
in addition to what they obtain from
the pasture and the mother. But the
pigs will make use of some additional
feed especially if the litter is large
one.
The pigs will begin to eat when they
are about three weeks old if they are
given the opportunity. For these
young animals nothing is superior to
skimmilk mixed with shorts Many
farmers have no skimmilk, though,
SO something else must be used. In
such case probably the best thing to
feed is a thin slop of shorts up to the
time that the pigs are from four to
six weeks DID, after which the ration
should be made up of equal parts of
corn meal and shorts.
These young animals should never
be fed corn alone. The feed for the
pigs must be fed in separate troughs,
around which fence has been built
to keep the sows away.
There is no advantage to be gained
by pushing the pigs too rapidly with
supplementary feeds. They should
not be fed much fattening feeds, as
corn; they should rather be given
feeds which tend to make bone and
muscle, as skimmilk, shorts, pasture,
cowpeas, soy bean meal, etc, SO that
when the time arrives to finish them
for the market they will have a we'll
developed body upon which to put
the fat. They should. while young, be
given just enough feed to keep them
in a good healthy growing condition.
Oftentimes when the litter is small
and the mother is good mixer the
little pigs will need no feed at all in
addition to the pasture and the moth
ers milk
Extensive experiments have been
made in which it has been demon
strated that gains on young pigs can
be made as economically by feeding a
given amount of feed to the mother
as by feeding directly to the pigs. To
be able to keep up an average-sized
litter in this way, the mother must be
fed literally. The mother and the
pasture should be depended upon to
furnish the greater part of the feed
for the small pig.

WAR PERIL PASSED
Austria-Hungary Has Begun to
DemobiIize Her Army.
Danger OF Conflict With Russia Ia
Eliminated for the Present-Stand-
ing Army Has Incurred Heavy
Expense to Government.

Vienna.-As a tangible proof of the
fact that all danger of war between
Austria Hungary and Russia is past, l
will mention that during the last few
days reports have reached me direct
from Galicia that rehabilitation has
already begun on the Austrian side,
and that several trainloads Of dis
charged reservists have arrived in
Lemberg from the frontier districts.
Such incidents, palpable as they are,
speak language which none can fail
to understand, says a correspondent.
can personally testify to this; that
the Austro Hungarian people, IN their
overwhelming majority, deeply long
for peace and the re-establishment of
normal relations with their huge east
ern neighbor. Excepted from this are
only small circles made up, above all,
Of the army, with sprinkling Of men
holding office at court. One of these
said to me the other day: Il think 1t
would have been better for us to fight
Russia. Our army and the German
army are in better trim and fighting
humor than they may ever be again,
and together we could have made an
end of all danger for the future. Ger
many could have taken Champagne
from France and SO crippled her he
reditary enemy for all time"
Such expressions, however, are few
and far between, and they come from
irresponsible hotspurs. The Austrian
press has lamented for months over
the hardships and financial losses
brought about by this huge army Of
100000 kept in readiness at her from
tiers.
AS soon as things quiet down once
more there also comes the question OF
paying the piper. This monarchy has
incurred, in indulging in the luxury of
getting and keeping ready for war
with Russia, extra expenses, outside of
her regular ones, 1. e., those authorized
by her parliaments, amounting to over
400, 100000 kronen, and not penny
of this is yet paid for. With that the
finances of the dual monarchy are in
precarious shape, as was evidenced.

(By' D. T. GNAY)
The mother should receive no feed
at all for about twenty-four hours af-
ter giving birth to the pigs. She Is
feverish, though, and should be liber-
ally supplied with fresh water. The
second day after narrowing she should
be given a small feed. 1t is well to
start her on a light slop made up of
shorts and skimmilk. If there is no
skimmilk on hand, mix about four
parts of corn with one part of shorts,
cowpeas, or soy-bean meal and give a
small quantity. She should be grad
ually brought up to full feed; this
should require about three weeks. If
she is overfed at first the pigs are apt
to take scours and thumps. When
she is on full feed she will be eating
daily an amount equivalent to about
per cent of her live weight, provid
ed she is not on pasture. If she has
the run of a good leguminous pasture.
at least one-half of the grain will be
saved If she has no pasture, she
should be fed just about as she was
fed before narrowing except that she
should receive more feed.
When the pasture is composed
mainly of blue grass or Bermuda
grass she should receive a grain feed

small loan of $25,000,000 granted it by
American financiers practically on
terms of their own.
The enlargement of the German
standing army Is a matter in which
the allied power of Austria-Hungary
feels the deepest interest. The Aus
trian press devotes as much space to
it's discussion as to its own national
affairs. 1t is not true, as French
paper stated, that Germany's peace
footing will soon show $4,000 men,
10000 is the figure. I
The explanation of these unusual
measures lies in the fact that Emperor
William and those near him believe
the rise of the Balkan powers means
a further Strengthening of the Triple
Entente, since Bulgaria, Servia and
Greece gravitate toward Russia and
her two allies, and that by the fact
that the hitherto maintained European
equilibrium is being seriously dis
turbed and that complications are
bound to arise from this which may
threaten the world.

A saying of Francis Ferdinand's boy,
a youngster of twelve or so, is in the
mouths of officialdom in Vienna just
now. His father, sensibly enough,
sends him to public school in this

GOOD CONDITION
OF GARDEN SOILS
Chemical Fertilizers Are Very
Strong and Injure Plants If
Used to Excess.

If the soil of your garden is in good
mechanical condition-that is, If it
contains the proper amount of de-
cayed vegetable matter-eXcellent re-
suits in the way of fertilizing may be
obtained without the inconvenience
Of handling ordinary manure. Sheep
manure may be bought in sacks and
Is excellent. 1t gives immediate re-
suits Strewn over and dug into the
vegetable garden or placed directly
in drills or hills, it promotes rapid,
steady growth until maturity. 1t
makes rich and safe liquid manure,
one pound in five gallons Of water
producing mixture which caG be
used safely daily if necessary.
Bonemeal is good, but is not a COM
plete fertilizer. Wood ashes should be
used with caution, as the large
amount Of I've they contain may do
mischief.
The best chemical fertilizer is what
Is known as complete fertilizer,
which Is supplied under various
names. Ask when you buy it, how to
use it and be sure to use no more than
the directions permit. A very light
sprinkling over the soil after spading
or blowing, then rake in, is best.
Chemical fertilizers are very strong
and will kill or injure plants If used
to excess.
If the soil OF your garden is not in
good mechanical condition it must be
properly MANFRED before you can
hope to have success. Dig in fresh
horse manure and leave the ground
rough and let the manure rot. When
1t is rotted spade up the ground
again and perhaps planting may be
done.
