Fa.tenins Pigs in Colorado.
(Bert Hart.)

The first OF September. 1913. went
to Kansas. knowing about the failure
in the corn crop and as pigs would
naturally be in sight before the corn
shortage was realized went there to
buy shoats. bought 200 head at a
cost OF $1,000 including all expenses.
not charging for my time. These pigs
were unlcaded at my place near
Longmont the 22nd day OF September
averaging sixty-four pounds after this
long shipment. They were allowed
the run OF the pastures. On October
20. one hundred OF these shoats were
put on a self feeder OF shelled corn.
On December 6 this lot was sold in
Denver for sI.4l6.s6. The cost of
feed for the lot of hogs was $4+4.50
and this together with charging the
hogs with six cents OF the original
cost $500 is s1o44.5o leaving a net
balance OF s372.36.
The remaining Kansas hogs were
started on one pound OF corn daily on
iNoNeubtI 4 auu itu huhb ahttt
uary /, 1914. The feed for the lot
up to this date cost s76.20 On jan
uary l. began feeding thirty head
on the seif-peeder OF corn and on
January 81 they were sold for s4s7.67.
The average original cost Of these
thirty was $3.50 and the cost OF their
feed was s74.67. The total cost out
side Of field feed was s300s7. leaving
a net balance OF s1s6so on the thirty
head. Most OF the remaining seventy
were bred. Forty.six Of these were
sold locally for s515. Their original
cost together with all feed outside
OF field feed was 34ol.76 and this
taken from the s515 leaves a net bal
ance OF $113.24
Then had twenty.four head on
hands for the summer sold six on
July II at nine cents or s205. Their
part Of the original cost was $40 and
their feed $3.50 net balance OF

reducing the erpense OF caring for
the hogs to the very low minimum.

On September 10 began an ex'

The editor of the Morrilton Headlight, V. A. Beeson, has the sympathy of many friends in the death of his father, Rev. I. R. M. Beeson, who died in that city last Friday night, at the home of his son.
 J. N. Nixon started yesterday to drive a bunch of 239 head of cattle thru to Van Buren. where he has them sold to an Oklahoma ranchman. They will not reach Van Buren until tonight. It is quite a common thing now to drive cattle thru to Oklahoma, a bunch being taken from ,here al- most every week. It was esti- mated that a saving of $75 would be made on this bunch over freight rates.

PRICES FOR PUFFS

The editor of an Eastern paper has grown peevish. He has been pestered so much by people desiring free puffs that he facetiously refers to himself as the Peerless Prince of Puff Purveyors. ' He thinks he has done enough for social queens, schemers who are looking for free advertising, people who have legislative fads they wish to push and organizations which want free publicity. So he has evolved the following scale of prices for puffs:
 For telling the public that a man is successful citizen when everybody knows he is as lazy as a hired man. $2.70. Referring to a deceased citizen as one who is mourned by the entire community. when he will only be missed by the poker cir cle. $10.13.
 | Referring to one as hero and one who will stand by his honest convictions when everybody knows he is a moral coward and would sell out for 30 cents, $6. 21. Referring to some gallvanting female as an estimable lady whom it a pleasure to meet, when every man in town would rather see Satan coming, $8. 10.
 Calling an ordinary pulpit orator an eminent divine, 60 cts,
 Sending a doughty sinner to Heaven. $5.
 Referring to a deceased mer- chant who never advertised in his life, as progressive busi- ness man. $4. .99.
 Lambasting the daylights out of the demon rum at the beguest of the local prohibition commit tee. $6.77.
 Ditto for the prohibitiOnists at the request of the local wet committee, $6.77.

THE HAY RACK RIDE

The hay ride, like many other sound past times. is caught in the whirl of mechanical revolution, and must eventually pass from custom - Toledo Blade. Time was when yellow har-
 vest moons Their glamor used to hold; When sweeping mist and fros-
 ty air The timid heart made bold And, ah, to feel the slender
 form A-nestling at ones side And, ah. to feel the magic of The old time hay-rack ride. Time was when beat of horses
 feet Upon the hard high-road Was music to the youthful
 hearts That formed the hay racks load; Today the chugging motor car Disturbs the countryside Quite out-of-date, forgotten, is The old time hav-rack ride. Time was when cen slender
 gift Of comedy would please: When crowded in amid the hay Sweethearts might hug and
 squeeze:
 An. merry was the laughter
 then Convention was defied- And, ah, what loves were kin
 dled on The old-time hay-ride.
