The proper housing of swine Is best
accomplished by using a central hog
house with a number of colony pens.
The large central house is wen suited
for winter shelter and spring farrow-
ing. The portable houses are espe-
cially useful for housing different
classes and sizes of hogs in separate
fields, particularly daring summer or
after farrowing.
Portable hog houses have been used
satisfactorily for good many years.
They are quite generally in use by
breeders of pure-bred swine where
they often find it more satisfactory to
quarter but few animals together.
The farmer who produces swine for
the market and depends on large
central hog house win also find few
portable pens very useful in separ.
ately housing odd lots of swine.
Some farmers prefer a shed roof
hog house to the A-shaped cot. Six
feet four inches vide and eight feet
hong makes good size house. In the
rear it is provided with door two
feet wide and two and one-half feet
long, the same size as a lower front
door which Is placed diagonaliy oppo.
site so that by opening all the doors 1t
makes a cool house In summer. On
the other hand, by closing both lower
doors and opening an upper door
which Is put in above the lower door
in front. so that ample ventilation is
provided, it makes warm house for
cold winter weather 1t is very i'm.

back side, by means of which It may

having hinges on the top, the storms

can circulate freely without causing

Henry Bartlett, now 16 months old,
Mrs. Watson charges that her hus-
band called to see her at the hospital,
leaving Irene sitting in the auto and
later spent the evening in the COM
pany of Irene.
Watson is also accused of taking
Irene to the Hamilton club, of which
he is a member, and to nickel shows,
cabarets and theaters.
Further, she alleges that Watson,
who was in the real estate business
with the firm of OTris Hart, permitted
Irene and a friend to move into a
fiat, paid a months rent for them and
that no further rent was paid, but
they remained until put out by the
landlord. ..,
A diamond Iavelierre was a token
given to Irene on Christmas, 1913, by
Harry, and a wrist bracelet Christ
mas, 1914, according to the allega-
tons of Mrs. Watson, who says Harry
gave gifts to several women, but did
not pay her bills.
Watson is the son of J. B. Watson,
who failed in the real estate business,
was arrested for embezzlement and
Jumped his bonds. He is now a fugi-
tive.
Mrs. Watson claimed that some Of
her relatives were victims of J. B.
Watson, and Newfeld told Judge Sab
ath that Harry was being punished
for the sins of his father.
Mrs. Watson, who is p, is very

KISSING BEES THE MAIN PART
OF DIVORCE BILL

" XIV SENSE DlGE
: Should a girl who kisses a man in
Sthe presence Of his betrOthed before
they are married be expected to dis
continue the kissing after marriage?
Mrs. Lydia Watson thinks she
should and has named Irene Straine,
II, the kissing girl" as one of the
correspondents in her divorce bill to
be heard before Judge Walker.
Before we were married Irene
used to insist on kissing my fiance,"
Mrs. Watson told a Day Book report
er. when he would kiss me and my
mother, Irene, who was one of my
friends at the time, would insist that
he kiss her and laughingly say that
she was to be his second wife.
AFTER we were married Irene con-
tinued the practice of kissing. When
! celebrated my wedding anniversary
and had my bridesmaids present,
Irene, who had been one of them,
called me on the phone and told me
Harry, my husband, should come for
her with the car. told her he hadn't
gone after my other bridesmaids, but
Harry took the car and went after her
and stayed at her home all evening
while my guests and I ate the ami
yersary dinner"
In her divorce bill, which Morti-
mer NewfeId, Watson's attorney,
specified in the court of domestic re-
lations yesterday as "scurriIous and
scandalous, Mrs. Watson claims that
her husband and Irene, who is a
stenographer in the employ of the
Heine Chimney Co., were constantly
going away together into corners and
INDUCING in kissing She says that
later her husband would take her in
the auto to Irene's home, leave her
sitting in the car at the door and go
to greet Irene and when Irene moved
into a house where the hall was mar

the kissing continuing.
