PROHIBITION PROGRESS.

(By JAMES MIDDLETON, fin Worlds
 Work)
 About two years ago MT. William Jennings Bryan gave a diplomatic din her in Washington, distinguished par ticularly by the absence of wine. I'm mediately the world burst into a roar of laughter; Europeans, especially, hailed the proceeding as an amusing illustration of American provincialism. few months ago the king of England announced that he would himself ab- stain from alcoholic drinks for the rest of the war, and that wines would no longer be served in any of the royal households. Nine American states have adopted prohibition in the last eight months. France has legally for bidden the manufacture and sale of absinthe, and the Russian empire is dryer" at the present moment than Kansas or Maine ever were Facts like these testify to the progress that the cause of antialcoholism has made in less than year When the leader of the most sophisticated society in Europe follows the example of our own somewhat homespun secretary O. state, the cause of teetotalism has ceased to be ridiculous.

 The frst few days after farrowing the SOW should be fed according to the size of her litter, using extra pre- caution where litter is very small. as 100 much feed will cause a feverish condition of the udder, which is liable to make the pigs SCOUT or give the SOW milk fever The feed should not De mixed up in larger amounts than can be fed out in one day so as to keep 1t from souring Sour feed. when Ted to either the sows or pigs. will cause SCOUTS. Shell corn is a good Iced to put in creep to start the lit tle pigs to eating while they are still sucking. After weaning do not feed too much corn.
 Ration For Growing Pigs.
 The following is a good ration for growing pigs: Corn. 45 per cent: shorts. rice polish or rice bran, 45 per cent; and meat meal. tankage or oil meal. 10 per cent If skim milk is available it can be fed instead of the meat meal, etc, feeding two and one-half pounds of milk for each pound of grain fed.
 Alter the pigs are from three to five months old, the corn can be gradually increased to 60 or so per cent of the ration, the shorts and tankage being correspondingly decreased. A good fall pasture will decrease the cost of production, but where pastures are not handy, small amounts of alfalfa or clover hay can be fed to advantage II. A.
