KINGS Grapevine.

The great vine at Hampton court
palace is a slip off one at Valentines.
near Wanstead. which was planted in
1858. Owing to its roots having pene-
trated the bed of the river, which is
only 60 feet from the end of the
vinehouse, the Hampton court vine
grew with extraordinary rapidity. In
10000 years after it was planted
its main branch was ia feet long
Now its branches cover space of
1900 square feet, but the principal
branch only stretches 90 feet-the
length Of the vinehouse. Had the
house been enlarged the vine would
probably cover four times as much
space. AS il is, the vines at Cumber-
land lodge. Manresa house Roehamp-
ton and Sillwood park, Sunninghill,
surpass it; while the one at Kinnel
house. Breadalbane-the largest in
Great Britain-covers nearly twice as
great a superficial area.

MARKETING OF LAM3 CROP
Particular Attention Should BE De-
voted to Task Of Getting Ami
mails in Proper Condltlon.

Every flock owner should devote
particular attention TO the handling
of his flock in such manner that his
crop Of lambs will be in proper con-
dition to market when the price is
right TO sell.
The increasing demand for fancy
mutton at times during the year has
given flock owners much better OPP
portunity to sell their lambs when
prices are on higher level than dur
ing the ordinary season.
The man with a flock of high-class
mutton sheep has a field OF operation
all his own. Today there is steady
demand for all the lambs he can pro-
duce at any season of the year and at
prices that insure a fair margin OF
profit.
1t is simply matter of having his
lambs in good condition when the
markets are not overloaded with the
products from the large feed lots. In

to brag of in the way of hogs. To
win, we must do some thinking, some
planning and some putting into effect.
There will be better hogs a few
years hence than there are now. Be-
fore that day comes, there will have
to be better men.
Breed to the best male you can
find. 1t may cost a little more. You
will get 1t all back in the better pigs
you get.
Keep your hogs cool, but don't cool
them in .mudhole
Turn Off some OF the shoats while
the price is booming, which is most
likely just now. Stop the cost OF
production as soon as you can. That's
the way to make money.
Better than ring in the nose for
the hog that loves to root is a good
chance to root and have a good time
Hogs are making money for you when
they are roofing good and lively.
Wheat feed, that is not too coarse,
is a fine feed for hogs this time OF
the year.
Hog cholera rarely strikes the pen
OF the man who keeps his hogs clean
The disease is a filth trouble.
If your hogs are shut up so they
have no chance to root, dig load OF
sods for them now and then and
throw them over into the yard. 1t
helps to keep the porkers busy. and
when they are busy they are looking
out for your interests all right.
poor fence is an invitation to get
out. You haven't time to look after
that sort of thing. Make the fences
good on the start.

CAT AN EXPERT FISHERMAN"
Has Learned Meaning Of Line in
Water, and Has the Patience OF
the Perfect Angler.

Cats are known to be fond of fish
but it is not every cat that is willing
to go out and catch enough fresh fish
to furnish his own meal and supply
the family breakfast table with the
same food. Such an animal exists in
Miami Fla, however. and daily
watches hand line which his owner
places in the water. When the cork
hobbies the cat dashes to the Office OF
an amusement company and sets up
a loud mewing. Following the cats
footsteps to the place where the line
has been dropped, whoever is on duty
at the Office hauls in the fish to the
tuneful purring of the proud and sat
isfied cat. Some months ago the cat
CHANGED to be on the dock when fish
was pulled in. He learned that his
favorite food came from the water and
was caught on the end of line
Since that any line with one end in
the water and one on the dock has
been a source of unfailing interest to
the cat. The cats patience would put
the renowned Izaak Walton to shame,
for he will spend hours sitting by a
line without stirring. Sometimes the
cat will sit by the side of fisherman
and will tell his human companion by
his mewing when fish is beginning
to nibble at the bait before the fisher
man has suspected that the bait is
being dallied with.

ALWAYS LOOKING AHEAD.

1t is not generally known to what

projects in which it has exerted its en-.
ergies during the nearly half century

spect is scarcely less than phenomenal
and when clearly understood the fact

ganIzation and effectively aids in the

Two great facts in National Grange

ness and cannot fail to forcibly inn

Grange has committed itself, has eth
er been accomplished or the effort in
it's behalf is still in progress. Never
once has the National Grange been
forced 20 retract a position IL has
taken on any of the great questions
OF the day.
For an organization that has been
in existence nearly 80 years, and all
that time constantly interesting Itself
in public affairs and endeavoring to
accomplish improvement. this Is a
wonderful record and one in which
every patron in the country has rea-
son to be proud. No other organiza-
ton in the United States can equal It..

the staple food of the young British
litterateur. George Gissing and his
heroes all fed on bread and dripping
till success smiled on them. George
Moore was once a drippingite The
poet, Alfred Noyes. was said to resort
to dripping when his poems had bad
luck.
Yes. everybody knows that dripping
Is supposed to be the juices, the sa-

That is the superstition. But what
really is dripping-the dripping that

The question, perhaps, will never be.

given to 1t by the fact that London

close proximity TO the large cities In
the eastern states there is a profitable
field for the winter lamb business
This is a branch OF the sheep bust
ness that can never suffer because of
competition with the large feed lots.
The consumers OF this class Of fancy
mutton are the rich people who have
money to. pay for any article that
pleases their palates and who will
never accept the feed lot lamb as a
substitute for the tender. juicy and
palatable lamb that possesses supe-
rior qualities
Another branch of mutton growing
that perhaps is better adapted to the
average farmer is that of maturing
spring lambs for the market. Such
lambs are ready for market shortly
after the winter lambs are sold. AS a
general rule such lamsb bring more
money than those that are held back
and finished along toward autumn

NATIONAL
W CRANCE
COOPERATION IN KANSAS
Movement Local In lite Scope 10 Elk
pected to Spread to State
Wide Project.
Conducted by Charles M. Gardner, Editor
of the National Grange. westfield. Mass.

1t is an interesting story OF rural
cooperation that comes from Kansas
with the Grange taking the lead, in a
movement which appears to be frought
with great possibilities. Though the
start made is local in its scope, it is
expected to spread to a statewide
project, and perhaps to an even wider
area than that. The details OF the Kan
sas undertaking are interesting and
are herewith presented fully:
About four months ago a movement
was started in Stringtown Grange, No.
1889. of Kansas, looking to the es-
Establishment of a Grange store at the
county seat town of Burlington, a city
of 5000 inhabitants A committee OF
three was appointed to call a mass
meeting of all Changers in the county,
and this meeting outlined general
plan, following the Rochedale system,
as practiced successful for the past
80 years by the Johnson County Co
operative association at Olathe, Kan.
A committee of three was named In
each Grange TO solicit subscriptions
for stock and meetings were held at
each Grange, where speakers explain
ed the project. There were a few who
came who opposed the movement but
many Of them have since fallen in line
and are energetic helpers.
Finally $1,000 was subscribed. at
which figure it was agreed to incorpo.
rate and elect permanent officers. This
was done and efforts continued to sell
more stock. The second $1,000 was
raised much easier than the first
$1,000
On July IL the store opened for
buginess There are about 200 stock
holders, all Changers. Shares are S.
each and no person can own more
than 90 shares. Only one vote is al
lowed stakeholder, regardless of the
amount of stock owned Goods are
sold for cash only. At the end of each
six months the net profits are used as
follows:
First-To pay a dividend on the
stock, not to exceed per cent.
Second-To provide a surplus fund.
Third-The remainder shall be di-
vided among customers who have
traded with the company during the
preceding six months Ito stockhoid-
ers, double the per cent of non-stock-
holders). in proportion to the amount
OF their business.
The store offers every Granger the
opportunity to buy all farm supplies
at wholesale price. plus the actual
cost cf distribution. The corporate
name OF this institution is the Farm
ers' Supply company. Burlington.

The hog lot has much to do about

Long legs in hog ought TO bar him

Meat, and lots OF it. in now and then
a mess of boiled and mashed pota-
toes.
Little soft new corn at first It's
hot stuff. May give the porkers the
stomach ache
| doubt If any man ever had to fight
hog cholera who kept his premises
clean and fed right UP to the mark.
Work off some of the shoats and
stop the cost of feeding.
Get just as near to the man who
eats your meat as you can when it
comes to selling time.
A few sweet apples now and then
are fine for an appetizer. Not much
meat in them, but they help to keep
the system in good order, and so are
of value as an article of diet.
Hogs do not need much salt A lit
tie goes a good ways. But be sure
they have that little.
Throw now and then charred stick
of wood over in the yard for the hogs
to work at. A good tonic. Keeps the
stomach in good order.
II you feed sour milk, stick to sour
milk, not change back and forth from
sweet to sour,
Somehow it seems to most of us
that it is big waste of time to do
much thinking about the food we give
hog. Anything will go. That is one
reason why we never have anything
