GOLFING HINTS
By STRAIGHT DRIVE"

THE 1IASHIE.-Accordi to J. H
Taylor. the famous I'VE times British
open champion, and probably the
greatest mashie player in the world,
the mashie should not be used for
shots over so yards Yet We see
amateurs and professionals alike
pridinE themselves that a $50 TO 10
yard hole is but a mashie pitch
A forced mashie shot is about as
indispe nsable as a putt with a
driver. 1t can be done. but il is
much more risky than TO take the
jigger or mid-irOu.
Used for pitched approaches rang
ing from 10 TO so yards, the mashie
can be brought into the highest de-
gree of subsection. Its lofted face
bites firmly under the ball, which
rises into the air. and comes TO
earth with just enough spin 70 make
IL roll a few feet and stop close to
the hole If the shot has been prop
erly gagged
The player who through diligent
practice really knows how to play
the mashie is a match for any one.

TIMELY HINTS FOR DAIRYMAN
Practical Feeder VIII Observe Manager
Observation-Disclosures 10 Matter
Of High Ideals.

Every successful dairyrnan knows
that
Cows should not be MIXED with
lightning speed, but steadily and
gently.
The good feeder will watch the
manger, the eye, the coat and the
weddings Of his animals and soon ex-
perience fascination in his work.
By cleaning the stables, brushing
the cows and properly mixing their
feed it is possible to milk in comfort.
If a few lazy, dirty dairymen fail
20 produce clean product it is the
duty of the state and municipal gov
ernments to put them out of busi-
ness.
Cleanliness is not a matter of higher
ideals alone but Of careful business
forethought, nevertheless dairymen
should have high ideals and strive for
greater perfection.

They will be first put to work, it is

just south of Fond du Lac.
Then they will be available for
work in other parts of the state.
The honor system will govern the
men while they are out Only men with
clean records will be allowed on this
work. They will be looked after by
an officer of the state prison, who is
also fitted for the supervision of the
road building. He will have assist
ants, but there will be no armed

them the best Of care for the first
ten days and the death rate will be-
reduced greatly.
A f1at-bottomed trough with sides
not over three inches high may be
used for feeding the small pigs and
the feeding should be started as soon
as they will begin to eat, or at about
four weeks old.
Remedies for Hog Diseases.
Charcoal, bushel; hardwood ashes,
1 bushel; salt, pounds; air-slaked
lime, pounds; sulphur, 4 pounds, and
pulverized copperas, 2 pounds, is a
good remedy for pigs suffering with
scours and hogs affected with worms,
according to the animal husbandry d.
vision of the bureau Of animal indus
try, department of agriculture.
If the pigs show indications OF
securing. keep the charcoal mixture
where the SOW can eat it at will, or
give her Is grains of copperas in her
slop every night and morning until
effective. In case of severe scour-
ing with little pigs each may be given
five to ten grains Of subnitrate Of bis
nuth after changing the sow's feed
and giving her the copperas.
One o. the best preventive meas
ures for worms is to keep the mixture
where the hogs can eat it at will. Mix
the lime, salt and sulphur thoroughly,
and then mix with the charcoal and
ashes. Dissolve the copperas in two
parts of hot water. Store in barrel
under shelter, but keep some Of 1t in
g shallow box for the hogs at all
times. If hogs are already wormy,
turpentine can be given in the slop
each morning for three mornings, at
the rate of one teaspoonful for each
so pounds of live weight.
If hogs get plenty of exercise and
are fed slop or soft feeds, they will
seldom become constipated. I In case
a pregnant SOW becomes very consti-
pated give her one-fourth of pound
of EPSON salts in her slop once daily
until her bowels become normal.
Examine the hogs frequently about
the ears, neck, flank and the inside
of the legs to see if they are lousy.
Lice cause unthriftiness among hogs
of any age, and death among many
pigs. To get rid of them wash or
dip the hogs in a solution of any of
the coaltar disinfectants. A rubbing
post may be made by wrapping some
gunny sacks about stake and wet
ting the sacks frequently with crude
oil, so that the hogs may rub against
them. An effective method of clean
ing the hogs OF lice during the sum
mer months is to pour crude oil on
the water in the wallow. A thin layer
OF oil viii get on the hogs and win
kill the lice without injurilg the hogs.

All hog lots should be built where

one of the greatest factors for destroy

quently washed out and placed where
the sun will shine in them. This is
especially true of troughs used for
feeding small pigs. Cleanliness of
the feed Is essential in this case to
prevent scours, which is the cause of
death among SO many pigs. Avoid
sudden changes of feed for the sow
just before narrowing or while suck
ling her pigs. Do not give SOW too
much feed at this time. She should
have about four pounds of dry feed
for each one hundred of live weight.
Some clean, dry straw should be
placed in every house for bedding, as
it Is essential that the SOW have
warm, dry bed when she farrows.
Many young pigs are lost each year
from cold and exposure at narrowing
time on every farm where no shelter
is provided The young pigs must be
kept warm. dry and have plenty of
sunshine until several weeks old In
order to do well. Few sows that get
plenty of exercise and are not too fat
will need help in narrowing, but it Is
well to be present to give help if nee

crushed. Clip off the small tusks the
day after the pigs are born. Give

.AneIent Spanish LIahthouse.

At La Coruna, in northern Spain.
may be seen a fire tower, which is,
with the exception of the ruins of
the Ronlsn lighthouse at Dover. the
oldest of all existing structures of the
kind.
The exact date of the erection OF
this tower Is unknown. According TO
an ancient tradition 1t is accredited
to Hercules. whence its name Tore
de Hercules. Others say that Phoe-
nicians, who had established several
colonies in Spain. had erected this
light tower for their northland cruises.
However, Judging from the inscrip-
ton, 1t is more probable that the Ro-
man Emperor Trajan erected this
structure. The inscription also men
lions the name of Servius Supus OF
Lgsitania as the architect The tower
is built of ashlars and is 20 feet
square and 120 feet in height II has
six separate stories, which can only
be reached by a circular staircase
around the exterior of the tower. The
lighthouse was restored in 1854. but at
the end of the eighteenth century was
again in ruins. In 1877 it was rebuilt
by the Spanish government.
