Woman Raises Rodents.

A correspondent of Table Talk"
tells Of a Massachusetts woman who
makes good living as breeder of
rats, dancing mice and guinea pigs.
The idea was first started by the
purchase of pair of the mice for her
own amusement. They were very
prolific, and while at first she gave
away the young, when she found
there was a good market for them
she began to find more orders than
she could fill.
With an invalid mother and in poor
health herself, the necessity for earn
ing livelihood faced her and she de-
cided to announce herself a breeder
Of fancy mice. After while she was
asked SO often to supply rats and
guinea pigs for medical laboratory
use that she had to engage house
keeper to run her home while she
looked after her unique kennels.
This woman, Miss Lathrop, now en-
ploys several men to run her farm
to raise crops, the greater amount of
which go to feed her rats, mice and
guinea pigs.

Of one of the big New York newspa-

some of them mighty serious and 9th

edy. 1t was a standing joke about
the office that anybody could look at
Cobb as he bent over his typewriter
and tell which kind of yarn he was
writing. If his face was all wrinkled
up with solemnity like bloodhounds,
with sad look about the eyes such
as one rarely sees except in an under
takers hostler, Cobb was preparing
something that would make hosts of
people laugh.

MAKING MONEY BY
RAISING FEW SHEEP
Experienced Breeder Can Tell
Good Mother at GIanCe-Dor-
set Lambs Mature Quickly.

Rushing sheep to market before
they are fat is one way of throwing
away their feed.
If you cannot tell the age of sheep
by it's teeth, never buy ewes without
taking along some man who does
know.
There is an individuality in ewes
as in other farm animals, and the ex-
perienced breeder can tell a good
mother at glance.
What pity that many farmers
have gone out of the sheep business
simply because politicians would not
pass adequate laws to prevent their
flocks from being destroyed by dogs.
The man who goes into the sheep
business now with the intention OF
learning all he can about the business
will make money.

The chief factors In the production
or hogs are breeding, feed, water, ex-
erc1se, shelter mineral matter, dis
ease, parasites and environment, ac-
cording to live stock specialists of the
United States department of agricul-
ture. Intelligent feeding and santa
tlon include most of the essentials of
success in making the production Of
pork profitable. In the first place,
however, pork cannot be profitably
produced by the use Of scrub breeding
stock. But, given good pigs and care
tul, Clearly management, with proper
feeding, pork production is a safe and
profitable business proposition.
There are three general classes of
feeding, as follows: Dry-lot feeding,
feeding on dairy by-products and feed
ing on forage crops. By dry lot feed
Ing is meant feeding in confined pens;
pasture means native pasture, as blue
grass, etc.; forage crops include alfal-
Ia and the crops which require to be
planted each year, and dairy by-prod-
ucts are skim milk, whey and butter
milk.
The value of a ration depends on its
meeting the needs of the animal to
which 1t is fed. A balanced ration is
one In which is supplied enough but
not too much food nutrients to supply
the needs of an animal for "a hours.
A ration for young, growing ami
NAL requires a larger percentage of
protein than one for fattening or for
mature animals. AS the shote in
creases in age and size the protein
may be gradually cut down until the
standard for a fattening hog is
reached. Forage crops have been used
more economically as a source of pro-
TEN than purchased feeds and have
the advantage of supplying it in q pal
atable, succulent form. Alfalfa prob
ably furnishes the cheapest and best
forage for swine when it can be grown
Even during winter alfalfa hay can be
fed in racks, and with ear corn fur.
nishes a well balanced feed for almost
all kinds of hogs.
Glover, cowpeas. soy beans, peanuts,
rape, rye, oats, wheat, vetch and Can
ada field peas are all valuable forage
crops for swine of any age. The proper
grain ration to feed with them con-
sists of such feeds as corn, barley,
etc., with the legumes. and with the
percentage of tankage and oil meal
will be found advisable. The amount
to feed will depend on the rate of gain
desired. If rapid gains are sought, a
full ration of grain should be used,
but If economy is more desirable
smaller proportions Of grain will be
better, while if it is only desired to

The Man of the Hour.

See the censor.
He censors all the time-morning,
noon and night. When others are
taking their much needed rest he
keeps on censoring just the same.
War was becoming so we'll known
that there was grave danger OF its
getting to be unpopular. When we
have discovered all there is to know
about thing we generally lose inter.
est in it. The censor was therefore
called in to fan the mystery. He
loves to keep everybody guessing.
Every censor has probably once
been an editor. The main business
of editors is to cut out everything in
teresting.
To be a first-class censor one must
oe able to keep a secret. There are
no woman censors.

Will they die out or become obsolete?

cations, we have an idea that there

A Trained Nurse Discovered Its Effect.

No one is in better position to know
the value of food and drink than a
trained nurse.
Speaking of coffee, a nurse in Pa,
writes: Il used to drink strong COT
fee myself, and suffered greatly from
headaches and indigestion.
While on visit to my brothers I
had good chance to try Postum, for
they drank it altogether in place of
coffee. After using Postum two weeks
l found l was much benefited and
finally my headaches disappeared and
also the indigestion.
Naturally have since used Postum
among my patients, and have noticed
marked benefit where coffee has
been left IF md Postum used.
Il observe :. curious fact about
Postum when used by mothers. It
greatly helps the flow Of milk in cases
where coffe is inclined to dry 1t
up, and where tea causes nervousness.
Il find trouble in getting servants
to make Postum properly. But when
it is prepared according to directions

Ruzzard Carries Off poa.

Eagles are said to be game enough
and strong enough to carry off almost
anything from a man to a cat, but
the first instance known when buzz
card carried off a dog was witnessed
on a recent afternoon. The incident
happened few miles from Bessemer.
A very brave little fox terrier was
endeavoring to chase of a large buzz
card that had alighted on the ground.
He only succeeded in making the
buzzard fly close to the ground for a
short distance. The buzzard stopped
on short stump and waited for the
dog, which came barking around the
root of the stump.
The buzzard, seeing his chance,
jumped from the stump, seized the
dog in its mouth and claws, and flew
to a thicket near Birmingham

grain ration. 1t is best, however, to
keep them growing, and to do this a
small amount of grain, two or three
per cent of live weight, will be found
most satisfactory. According to tests
at the Missouri station, forage crops
proved their value for pork production.
The test was continued through three
summers and ten pounds OF gain were
accredited to each bushel of corn be-

two or three per cent of the weight

Corn silage is pretty strong feed

ration for one day would be about six
pounds of grain per 100 pounds weight,
and for the larger pigs the ration will
continue to grow smaller in proportion
to weight until the 300 to 350-pound
pig will only consume daily ration
equal to "a per cent of his weight.
For feeding on native pasture q
smaller percentage of protein is need
ed than in the dry lot, but some high
protein feed is still needed. Pasture
feeding is better than dry lot feeding
under most conditions, because it in.
duces exercise and gives succulence
to the ration, causing the animals to
keep in better health in this way.
Blue grass pasture is used extensively
and is usually considered economical
by the farmer. During the early sea-
son it is valuable feed and if some
forage is provided when the blue
grass dries up 1t can be made to pro-
duce gains at very low cost.
