Bushels of Ear Corn.

to Any Desired Location.

A self-feeder for hogs, which will
hold approximately 20 bushels Of ear
corn. is easily made. The crib has
a base 3 by feet, and is 4 feet
high. 1t is built on a solid frame Of
Pinch lumber and covered with 6-inch
crib siding for the walls, and ship
lap for the roof. The siding should
be spaced inch apart for ventilation.
Surrounding the base is a trough
inch wide with fender on It's outer
edge made Of lumber 2 by 4 inches.
The corn is DETECTED into the trough
by a pyramidal arrangement in the
crib, as shown in the cut. Its flow is
further regulated by an adjustable
slide held In place by bolts with
winged nuts. The trough is sheltered
somewhat by the overhanging roof,
made from boards 3 feet long. One
section Of the roof should be hinged
for filling. The feeder should be built
on skids or runners so that It may be
hauled about the lots to any desired

USE CARE WITH STRAWBERRY
Easy Matter 70 Grow Crop, but An.
other Thing to seII-Pack In
Attractive Manner.

1t Is an easy matter to grow a crop
Of strawberries, but quite another
thing to sell them profitably. Straw
berries to sell must be packed carefully
In boxes and placed on the market
soon thereafter.
Few towns are well supplied with
Strawberries during the strawberry
season. Any individual who will plant
one to five acres will find a ready mar
ket for all his product at home. For
home market Strawberries should be
very nearly ripe when picked; but for
shipping they should be picked a little
greener.
1t is an easy matter to pick small
area, but when several acres have to
be picked over every day, It is not
SO easy. Shortage Of help Is the main
trouble.
When picking for shipping field
should be picked every day, II possible,
but for home market to pick over the
same ground every other day is often
enough. II is well to see that the
boxes are well filed.

Recruiting to Be Carried On.

Recruiting will undoubtedly be car
ried on extensively In all cities of any
size throughout the state. General
King has already declared that expe-
rienced officers, disqualified from ac-
tive service because of physical disa-
bility, will be given preference in the
selection Of men to have charge of the
recruiting stations. The question, which
remains to be answered is, what will
happen to the recruit? VIII he be sent
to Camp Ferris for training, or direct
~ south to receive his instructions at
the front?
Since the National Guard was mus
tered in the United States service, re-
cruiting has become exceptionally diff
cult. According to Colonel Boucher, IL
there was certainty Of action, there
would be hundreds who would join.
who now refrain because they dare
not risk good jobs for positions in the
army for an indefinite length of time.

LICE KILLER IS INEXPENSIVE
Rope Saturated With Kerosene and
Fastened Around Post viii Prove Y
Quite Effective.

A Washington farmer has found the
following good scheme for killing
lice on hogs. Set a round post In
the ground and leave 1t three feet
above the ground. Fasten a tin can
on top. Fasten large rope In the
can and let 1t run out over the top
down the post and run 1t round and
round the post at the right height for
the hogs to rub. Fill the can with
kerosene. Soak the rope first with
kerosene. The kerosene will follow
the rope out over the can, and the
hogs will do the rest.
A good plan is TO make a large
shade near the oiler. This should be
large enough so that the sun will not
shine on much Of the ground and high
enough so that man can walk under.
1t can be made cheaply by setting
posts In the ground and covering them
with brush and old hay or straw. You
won't need any "hog wallow" with this
arrangement. ~

Iowa Town Hospitable.

A feature Of the Thirty-second's trip
which will always be remembered was
furnished by the Ladies' Aid society of
Eden, H., a town about as big as Red
ford. They met the train with ice
cream, tea and cakes for every man in
the regiment. To those who looked
particularly lonely, they slipped com
pletely packed lunch box. They then
gave each man box marked "Not to
be opened until you reach camp" This
proved to be n housewives outfit. with
soap, foot powder, sewing materials
and lot Of other things man il
likely to forget when he goes soldier
ing.
The Thirty-second responded with n
band concert, and when they had
reached q point about 100 miles away
they all wired thanks to the mayor of
the town.
When the regiment reached Kansas
City they were refused permission to
pass through the city because of the
rOwdyism of some eastern troops that
had preceded them. They were shunt-
ed around the town on belt line,
passing through Houghton, Kan,
where were two cars of watermelons
on the siding. They disappeared with
the troops.

LADDER BUILT AROUND SIL0
Arrangement Will Be Appreciated BY
Farmer Who Wishes to Get Into
Various Doors at Top.

Silo owners often want to paint
their silos; at least they should do so
to get the most years of service out of
them. Earl FL. Clark Of Iowa has pat
ented this silo ladder for that purpose.
1t will also be appreciated by the own
er who wants to feed from one silo to
two or more buildings, or lots. He
may have doors put in at the proper
point so as to run the feed carrier
In that direction. Instead Of having a
stationary ladder at each door, one
ladder of this type may be used. Those
who have been In shoe stores where
the rolling ladder is used to aid the
statesmen in getting wares quickly will
understand the principle at a glance

Many Anxious to Fly.

Members of the signal corps are so
eager to fly that Capt. II. b. Britton
is overwhelmed with applications for
membership In the new areo detail
that is about to be formed. Though
no formal announcement was made,
the news that II. w. Blakely. an
aviator employed by the Aero Club
Of Michigan to teach volunteer flyers,
had arrived. spread through the COM
pany, and 10 volunteers asked that
their names be recorded All of them
had experience with motors and cleo
tricity; some had studied aviation and
some had made flights as passengers,
but none were avlators.
Because of the rush of applications,
Captain Britton made no appoint
ments. The volunteers will be tried
out and the most suitable for this
branch of service will be enrolled.
Harold q. Brooks, Company ii, Owes
so. has enrolled as mechanician.
The aeroplane Is a land and water
135 horsepower and capable
Of 30 miles an hour.
"The five places will be given to
men who will make use of their

Captain Britton. There will b, no

Mexico showed the need of trained avi-
ltors, and those we send will be first

Good for Three Years.

Blackberries, currants, gooseberries,
dewberries and raspberries begin to
bear the next year after planting, and
produce their best crops usually dur
Ing their second and third seasons.
Grapes bear their first good crops
about the fourth year after setting.
Strawberries bear the next year after
setting, and produce their heaviest
crop the second year, although they
are profitable for three years or more,
depending upon soil and cultivation.

Sweden.

1t has been pointed out more than
once that Sweden had no national
drama Of the first order, says a CORE
spondent In recent review Of the the
atrical and dramatic situation in
Stockholm and elsewhere in Sweden.
Authorities have ever maintained that
the musical qualities of the Swedish
language, together with certain In
herent lack Of dramatic instinct i'm the
people, have placed insuperable obsta-
cles In the way of great dramatic crea-
tons. But In this respect, also, the
lively interest In the purely national
that has come within the last two dec
AIDES. is making itself powerfully felt.
This appears in the production Of Aug
ust Strindberg and the interest they
have aroused In the land. Strindberg
has written many plays which deal
with social questions or with the weird
and supernatural, but these seem to
meet with little favor in the authors
native country. They are seldom pre-
sented on the stage. But with his dra-
matte plays the situation Is different.
Strindberg's "Gustavus III" has just
completed a run of 100 consecutive
performances In the Intima theater at
Stockholm, and the play was discontin-
ued then only because the manage
ment had closed contracts for series
of performances with the same cast and
play at Copenhagen. The people con-
tinued to crowd the theater night aft
er night. as long as the play was
given. "Gustavus III" is by no means
one of the strongest Of Strindberg's
historical plays. Far superior to 1t
both in technique and subject mat
Petri and the founder of modern Swe-
den, Gustavus Vasa, appear as the
most prominent characters, and Gus
tavus Vasa," a brilliant presentation
of the great kings repressive acts
against the rebellious subjects Of the
realm. The former play has been given
in Stockholm over 300 times In the last
couple Of years; "Gustavus vasa"
comes very close to 1t in popular In
terest.
Now that the war has made Of Stock
holm probably the most cosmopolitan
capital In all Europe, the so-called
American bar" has taken its
place among the institutions of
the city. The elaborate list Of
American drinks" says a Stockholm
correspondent, includes the usual as
sortment of cocktails and many
strange concoctions such as a prince
of Wales" "Prlnce of Monaco"
"Gibson Girl" a prairie Oyster" a
"Corpse Reviver," "Hot Locomotive"
and American Grog," the latter be-
ing the only name known In Scandi-
navia for bourbon, rye or blend. There
are temperance drinks" as well with
ice cream soda priced at one Swedish
crown, which. at the present rate Of
exchange, equals 81 cents In Ameri,
can money.
Fifty of the best boats, comprising
the Bohusten fleet of fishing craft,
were recently sold to Norwegian firms.
AS these boats have been used In ex-
porting stone when not utilized for
fishing, the West Sweden Stohe CON-
pany protested against the sale on the
grounds that the Swedish stone indus
try will be greatly crippled. but the
government nevertheless approved It.
