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 cof-
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

The chief factors In the production
or hogs are breeding, feed, water, ex.
ercise, shelter, mineral matter, dis.
ease, parasites and environment, &C.
cording to live stock specialists of the
United States department of agricul-
ture. Intelligent feeding and santa
ton 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, cleanly 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

The value of a ration depends on it's
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
mai requires 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 source of pro-
tein than purchased feeds and have
the advantage of supplying it in a 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 we'll 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
non-legume plants the use of a small
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

er sheep raised every year.
No animal on the farm succumbs to
disease as quickly as sheep, but they
are not difficult to keep healthy.
Corn silage is pretty strong feed
for sheep, particularly breeding ewes.
The Dorsets make good mothers
and the lambs mature quickly.
Every farm of ten acres or more
ought to have flock of sheep. They
are worth their weight in manure.
Do not make the sheep-pen too
close 1t should be well ventilated
and perfectly dry on the floor
A good floor is made by foot or
more of cobblestones, finished with
coarse gravel, the whole thing to be
elevated slightly above the surround
ing ground. No dampness will arise
from such floor or be on it.

Experienced Breeder Can Tell

Rushing sheep to market before
they are fat Is one way of throwing
away their feed.

by it's teeth, never buy ewes without
taking along some man who does

There is an individuality in ewes
as in other farm animals, and the ex-

What pity that many farmers
have gone out of the sheep business

anything from a man to a cat, but
the first instance known when buz-

on a recent afternoon. The incident
happened few miles from Bessemer.
A very brave little fox terrier was
endeavoring to chase off large buZ-

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

root of the stump.
The buzzard, seeing his chance,
jumped from the stump, seized the

ROMANTIC OLD ARRAS
NO MORE PICTURESQUE CITY TO

merelal Point of I'm
portance.

The picturesque old city of Arras,
where the Franco-B British forces con-
centrated in huge numbers to check
the German advance, and where the
British fell back after the Germans
occupied Cambria, must have walked
up and rubbed it's antique eyes to see
Its quondam foes within its gates as
allies of its beloved country. For
Arras was within the triangle over
which the English fought in the
fifteenth century.
The base Of the triangle was the
sea line from Harfleur to Calais, and
the apex was Paris. This is also the
ground over which some of the
fercest battles of the present war
ragged.
For thirty years the English battled
until nothing was left Of their French
territory except the Norman isles
and the newer conquest of Calais and
Its small territory. At last, in 1885.
at the peace of Arras, Philip of Bur
gundy "solemnly" forsook the English
alliance, and the English power in
France fell back.
This old town, which dates back to
the time of Caesar, is 100 miles north.
east from Paris, and has population
Of something like $4,000 people.

this once great art center as an in

However, it's glory cannot depart
while the beautiful townhouse, dating
from the sixteenth century, the cita.
del partly gone, erected by Vauban,
marshal of France and the greatest
military engineer of the seventeenth
century, and the tall, imposing houses
in the Flemish style overlooking the
fine squares, with the upper stories
projecting over the footway, remain.
These topheavy looking houses
were built in a time when a mans
house was indeed his castle, and the
projecting upper stories were used to
wage warfare on the enemy In the
narrow street below. The modern
armies with their wonderful and nu-
merous equipment of war must often
find it difficult to get through these
narrow streets in the old towns Of
France and Germany. They are bet
ter suited to the time when men
fought hand to hand, and warfare was
a matter of individual bravery.
That wonderful tapestry in the
Anglers cathedral, which represents
scenes from the Apocalypse, was
made in Arras, and some of the finest
pieces used in the decorations of the
field Of the cloth of gold.
Robespierre, the most famous and
fanaucal Of the republican leaders Of
the French revolution, was born there
in 1858, and later became a criminal
judge and a member of the academy.
He was one of the dandies and beaux
of Arras, setting the fashion in clothes,
and astonishing the most exquisite
with the richness of his laces and
dress This is difficult to believe
when ones vision Of him Is always In
