This event occurred in Boston harbor in De
cember, 1773. In order to compel Great Britain
to be just toward the American colonists in the
matter of taxation, merchants of this country
had agreed not to import anything while such
oppressive laws existed. The British parliament
declared their right to tax the colonists without
their consent; the latter declared that taxation
without representation is tyranny" The quarrel
grew hotter and hotter; some Of the contested
duties were removed under pressure but, by
1878, several articles among them tea, were still
burdened by heavy taxes. The colonists finally
refused to allow any cargo of tea to be
landed at of the ports. Vessels were i'm

the whole country was aroused, and the militia

The BIiddlescx farmers, armed with every con-

and their rights. The battle of Concord started
at North Bridge near Concord (the first volley

What spraying was carried on was

Teach the pig to eat at an early age
Skim milk, if available, should be used
literally IN connection with other
feeds. The pigs should be kept grow
ing constantly, and the best results
Will come with feeding a little under
their capacity rather than all they can
consume. Corn, shorts, and skim
milk, fed with alfalfa as a pasture,
makes a good, cheap, growing ration
for pigs. Plenty of exercise is needed
TO keep the pig in the best growing
condition. This is one reason why
good pasture is worth a great deal TO
the grower OF pigs.
Scours and thumps cause serious
loss to some growers. The former is
caused TO a certain extent by over
feeding, by feeding badly spoiled feed,
or by an abrupt change of feed. This
trouble is more likely to occur in
damp cold weather than at any other
time. IF scours develop in a litter Of
sucking pigs, correct the ration of the
SOW, reduce the amount of feed and
if necessary give q half pound of
EPSON salts in her feed. ThumpS in
pigs is caused by too much grain and
too little exercise. Correct the feed
and keep the SOW and pigs on some
kind of pasture for at least q few
hours every day. Pigs should always
be given the run of a good succulent
pasture when it is available.
The majority of breeders wean at
from six to ten weeks. Many prefer
twelve weeks. If the SOW is raising
two filters of pigs a year, the pigs
should be weaned when eight weeks

NAL should be given plenty of range,

The SOW, or boar pig, which is to be
used for breeding, should be given
only enough feed to keep it in a
strong, vigorous, growing condition.
Young breeding stock should live all
summer in the open, on uncontami-

stitution.
The pigs to be fattened for market
should be started without delay after

most always made on young ANIMALS.
Corn should be used IN the ration, and

Goats For Baby.

For the lingerie coat of the very small baby punch work would probably he too elaborate, but for the little one two years old and upward lingerie coat embroidered in punch work is very pretty.
 The design used, however, must not be very large. Clover leaves are about the right size. and for the child who is somewhat older a flower as large as wild roses or dogwood blossoms car be used. The leaves, too. may be done in punch work, although some might consider this leaf punch work, together with the flowers, too orna- mental for little people.
 When the little batiste coat has un- der it its padded lining of colored silk the effect is charming. The lining must be one of only three colors, white, pink or blue. Other colors would not be suitable for baby. The edges and hem of the coat may be either hemstitched or scalloped and worked in buttonhole stitch.

TEACHING EMBROIDERY.


 The quaint embroidery patterns of cunning little animals, birds or figures depicting Mother Goose rimes offer possibilities for the mother to teach little girls the first steps in embroid- cry, as all these designs are done in a simple outlining or cross stitching. These patterns will hold the interest of a child and if used to decorate some of her own belongings will not only keep the little fingers busy, but will implant love of needlecraft assweI.
 Aprons, a scarf for the dressing ta- ble,. covers for schoolbooks, lNbs and rompeEs for the small sister Or brother can all be ornamented in simple but fascinating patterns. Bean bags with an animal figure in cross stitch on each side will add to the fun of the work.
 Mercerized cottons, which will stand any amount of washing, can now be secured, and the embroidery should be done in the mercerized coIors-

Daisy Party.

A charming way to entertain chiI- dren in summer would be to give a daisy party. The invitations should be on daisies cut from white bristol board, with tiny photograph of the young hostess in the center. Write the invita- ton on the petals, in which invitation each little girl should be asked to wear a white dress and yellow sash. When the guests arrive give each a piece of yellow crape paper and some white paper daisies, or real daisies if pos sible, out of which they must make hats. The prize could be a daisy pin. A prize should also be given to the girl making the prettiest daisy chain. Dec crate with vases and bowls filled with daisies and serve refreshments com posed of yellow ice and daisy cookies.
