HUMoR DIsFlGURED BABY

Clarendon, N. C.-"My baby was
broken out with red, thick and
rough-looking humor when about two
months old. 1t would come in patches
and went almost all over her in that
way The places were like ringworm
and as they would spread they would
turn red and make sores and itch.
The trouble went to her face and
disfigured her badly. Her clothes ir-
ritated it.
Il saw the advertisement of Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment and l got a
sample and in one nights time could
see a change in the redness and in
two days the place would be nearly
gone. / sent and got one twenty-five
cent cake of Cuticura Soap and two
fifty-cent boxes of Cuticura Ointment,
which cured my baby. She was well
in three months" (Signed) Mrs. Ber-

SAVE W0LSEYS WINE VAULT
British Government to Preserve
Liquor Cellar of the Cardinal
at Whitehall.

London.-Cardinal Wolsey's wine
cellar is to be undisturbed by the gov.
eminent, when the additional offices
are built at Whitehall. For years
past the vault has served as re.
freshment room for the clerks of the
public offices in the United Services
institution. 1t is a low chamber
When the stucco facing was cleared
from the brick the arms of the great
cardinal, carved in stone, we're
brought to view. Although Wolsey
probably built Whitehall palace, York
place was standing 800 years before
his time and had been occupied in sue
cession by II archbishops of York.
The wine vault was situated imme.
diately behind the great hall. When
Henry VIII seized the palace it be-
longed to the see of York, and was
a place of sumptuous magnificence.
It's buildings and gardens covered
three acres, and from the stairs upon
the river Wolsey entered his barge
and was rowed to Esher after his dis
grace. Henry, as soon as he got the
palace, changed its name to York
place. In 1898 fire burned through all
of the buildings above ground, and
subsequent excavations have de.
stroyed all below the surface except
the cardinals wine cellar.

Farmers and pig raisers do not
always appreciate the value of green
feeds and succulent pastures for their
animals. Too often the hog is con-
sidered a scavenger and his ability to
use waste is regarded as his chief
value. However we'll he serves this
purpose, he will pay well for good
care, feed and housing.
Forage crops are especially bene-
fetal to young growing animals. 1t
is possible to grow them much more
profitably and successfully when a
good green field Of palatable and nu-
tritious pasturage is provided. Expert
ments and practical farmers expert
ences prove that gains in weight are
made at less cost on forage than in
the dry lot. Brood sows can be car
ried through the season on pasture at
less cost than when grain fields are en-
tirely depended upon. Foraging in
duces the animal to exercise and OBJ
tain fresh air, and these prevent dis
eases being contracted, and when the
animals are put in the fattening pen
their gains are unusually rapid and
profitable. The green feeds eaten are
of much value just to keep the pigs
digestive system in good condition and
the appetite keen.
The entire hog herd can be run on
forage crops and will profit by this
method of management. Younger ami
mails seem to derive the most benefit,
and fattening hogs the least. Herd
sows and the herd boar are benefited
by having green feeds. 1t is a good
plan to have the brood SOW running on
green pasture at farrowing time, as
this is conducive to strong, healthy
litter of pigs. She should be kept on
green forage from the time she far
rows. The young pigs will soon learn
to eat, and the exercise and the green
food in it's natural state will start them
along in good condition and tend to
keep them SO.
The method of feeding when on
pasture will necessarily vary accord
ing to the kind of crop used If the
crop grown be rape, alfalfa, clover,
cowpeas, soy beans, or other crops
high in protein content, the grain ra-
ton need not be supplemented by
feeds high in protein. If blue grass,
rye, oats, or other non-leguminous
crops are grown, it is best to add a
small percentage of feeds high in pro-

DOCKING OF LAMBS
QUITE NECESSARY
Practise Is Not Cruel and Is Alb.
soIuteIy Essential for CIeanIi-
ness and Appearance.
(By F. R. PAKE.)

Lambs should be docked wher
about week old. This is not a crue
operation and is absolutely necessary
for cleanliness and appearance.
Docking looks to be simple enough
but it requires great care. If the tai
is cut too short with knife the lamt
is likely to bleed to death. Some
shepherds scar with a hot iron the
end of the tail after being cut with
knife or chisel on a block of wood
and this generally stops bleeding.
There is now, however, an instru
ment on the market which does the
work quickly and effectually and with
no bad results. 1t is pair of blunt
edged pincers which are heated to
white heat and then used to bite" of
the tail When these hot pincers are
used the tail may be cut closely with
out bleeding.
After the operation the end of the
tail should be covered with clean pine
tar-some shepherds use coal tar-to
prevent flies from troubling the lambs
The animals should be watched close.
ly, particularly If the docking is done
late in the season, until the wound
has healed, to see that no flies have
attacked them.
The lambs should be castrated when
locked This, although a simple
operation, should not be attempted by
a novice, but should be done by an
experienced man.

tein to the grain. Corn or barley usu
ally furnish the bulk of the grain ra
tion, and when necessary these can bt
supplemented by adding one-tenth lin
seed oil meal or one-sixteenth tank
age. The rate of feeding will depend
On the gains desired. Considering
full grain ration to be four pounds
daily per 100 pounds live weight, we
may say that for ordinary work will
growing shoats a one-half grain ra
tion, or two pounds day for each 10t
pounds live weight, will give salts
factory results. If it is desired to make
faster gains heavier grain ration car
be used, and if it is desired to main
tain the animals as cheaply as pos
sible smaller percentage should be
fed
1t seems doubtful if it ever pays tc
try to keep pigs on forage crops alone
These crops are sometimes sufficient
to keep the pigs growing, but the gains
are not usually made economically
Usually the pigs are kept at loss in
live weight. Where brood sows are
kept they should be given enough
grain to keep them in good thrifty
condition. The fact that the forage
crops have high value when grains are
fed does not mean that they should be
fed alone
The crops best adapted to grazing
with pigs are alfalfa, rape, clover, blue
grass, bermuda, rye, oats, soy beans,
and cowpeas. The nature of the soil
the climate, and the rainfall are in
fluences that should govern the selec'
tion of the crops to be used Alfalfa
is the greatest forage crop on soils
suited to its growth. Rape and clover
are also excellent feeds, and both are
high in protein, the element needed tc
balance ordinary grain feeds,
Farmers are urged to plan some
system of forage crops for their hogs
Now is the time to plan some fields te
be sown to crops adapted to grazing
If permanent pastures are advisable
fence off a portion for the pigs anc
plant some crop to keep the pigs
growing when the permanent pastures
dry up, and the returns from the
years work with hogs will be proper
tionately increased. Give the pig ar
honest chance to, make you money by
giving him green feeds in their natura
state, and his growth, health, and pork
making ability will be increased.

Imnortant Food Element.

1t is very difficult to figure out a
ration that is adapted to the needs of
the pigs unless we have pasture and
forage to furnish plenty of succulent
and bulky foods. From weaving time
until the pigs are six months old pro-
tein is the important food element in
their rations. Corn is nine-tenths car
bohydrates, oats contain more protein
than corn, but not enough to meet
the requirements of the pigs. Rye
is richer in protein than oats, but
as a pig-feed barley excels all the
above, and is sure crop in many Sec
tions where corn seldom natures.

Detectives hunted in many cities,
searched the home and even dragged
