but if one teat III the eight is blind"
one that means from the very first
place that one pig will constantly be
crowded out ana have to take this in
sufficient nourishment. This is the
very thing that happens at trough
too short for all the pigs-the runts get
worsted, stand back and soon make
little effort to help themselves. To be
convinced of this udder trouble any
man need only observe the several
sows in his own herd. The SOW with
symmetrical udder produces the uni
form litter, and the SOW that always
has pig or two to shrivel up and die
at two or three weeks old will be
found to have 'patchy" udder, with
some poorly developed and crowded
quarters.

The uneven growth Of Il litter of pigs

the National Storkuan. I'm selecting a
SOW for breeding the practical require
ment should call for teats we'll placed

of ten or twelve paps placed exactly
opposite each other in the two rows is
the kind to demand. DO not select any
SOW having paps scattered along at
unequal intervals with smaller ones
here and there crowded in between the
normal ones.
A sow having quarters" of all sizes
is likely to nurse an uneven litter,
some twice as large as others, and
some nearly always die. Many think
that each pig has his pap and always
nurses the same one. This is not the
case, as anybody may easily see by
observing the sucking pigs. At first
the day old pigs suck all the paps, but
soon limit their attention to enough
to so around, fighting each other from
pap to pap.
If eight pigs happen to take eight
well developed quarters then they will
likely thrive in much the same way,

There is a legend in the folklore of
northern France that the possessor Of
the blue bird will attain happiness.
Peasants tell the story To their child

Anglo-SaXon people, az is firmly be-
lieved and frequently acted upon by
the little Norman boys and girls who
search for the elusive winged creature
in the woods.
One winter evening Nine. Maeter-
linck, wife of the famous poet,
brought TO her husband at their home
I in Saint Wandrille, Normandy. word
of a little girl whose mother was
poor widow and whose sister was sick
for want Of medicine and food The
child, trusting in the old wives tale,
had actually wandered into the for

blue bird, the finding of which she

"ImpOssible!" exclaimed Maeter-

and therefore utterly incapable of

But Nine. Maeterlinck insisted and
gradually his mental vision saw a
dream build itself out of the fantastic
narrative. The heroes and villains of
the struggle became distinct. The
dramatic interest grew from act TO
act. When the drama was completed
and Maeterlinck went over IL again,
he was obliged to admit that his
wife's intuition was right

a literary drama it at once accorded
