Proof That Little Dorothy Had I'm

by Her Mother.

Dorothy's mother is a suffragette Of
advanced type. Dorothy is a dear
little girl in a primary grade. but
somewhat inclined to copy her elders.
One dag her teacher received note
from the secretary of the school
board. but waited until after class to
read it, Dorothy returned for some
books and caught tears in the teach
er's eyes (the latter had been denied
an increase in salary upon which she
had based large hopes), and said:
why are you crying?"
The teacher laughed and said, "The
naughty old school board ISN'T nice
to mel"
Dorothy took hold of the teachers
hand with both hers and said very
seriously. Don't you cry any more

QUICK PRODUCTION OF MEAT
swine Afford Opportunity Of Realizing
Profit Quicker Than In Any
Other Way.

After all is said and done regarding
the necessity of increasing the meat
supply, the fact remains that meat
can be produced quicker and in great
er supply by hogs than in any other
way. While sheep and cattle will give
an annual increase of from 60 to 100
per cent, the swine will give from 500
to 1900 per cent. Likewise. while cat
tie are two years in getting ready for
market, hogs can be ready in six to
eight months.
On the other side of the argument is
the fact that the hog is useful for meat
production only, while sheep are used

outfits the, agitator must be consid-
cred in connection with the tank. The
agitators furnished with power outfits
are usually one of two types, of which
the propeller type is by all odds the
more desirable. 1t consists of an iron
shaft extending lengthwise of the
tank. on which are three or four, pre-
ferably four. propellerlike paddles. 1t
is operated by means of chain and
sprocket-wheel on one end of the
main shaft or by gear to the en-
gine. The agitator revolves rapidly,
keeping the contents of the tank thor
oughly agitated and parts of the mix
ture likely to settle evenly distributed
throughout. With some outfits it is
operated by hand by means of an up
right lever; with others, by means Of
a piston rod attached to the pump or
geared to the engine and working
through a stuffing box in the end of
the tank. This agitator answers fair
ly well for bordeaux mixture or ar
senate of lead but It is not sufficient
to keep either paris green or self
boiled lime-sulphur we'll in suspen-
sion.
For large tank pumps operated by
hand the propeller agitator may be
conveniently operated by means of q
shaft fitted with sprocket-wheel and
crank attached to the top of the tank
and running parallel with the agitator
shaft. There is one serious objection
to the use of agitators operated by
hand and that is the impossibility Of
getting men to appreciate the neces-
sity of constant and vigorous agita-
tion.
