RusslA,s GREATEST ENEMY.

| huSSlA'S GhER rs l ENEMY.
The new premier Of Russia, Boris
V. Sturmer, discussing with a news
paper correspondent conditions ere
ated by the war, said:
Russia awaits the future with con-
fidence. Some monetary disturbance
may happen in our financial system,
but Russia is rich in latent wealth.
During the whole war the deposits in
our savings banks have been constant
ly growing in an extraordinary fash
ion. The prohibition of alcoholic bev-
erages has produced marvellous re-
suits. Alcohol was indeed the scourge
that gnawed, decimated and impov-
erished our people. We destroyed this
enemy at the beginning of the war"
The Russian minister Of finance,
when presenting his budget to the
council of the empire, reported:
"Despite war expenses amounting to
12,000,000,000 roubles, and thanks to
the abolition of the alcohol monopoly,
the financial strength of the country
is growing, The savings of the ma
ton since the beginning of the war
have increased by 2000,000000 rou'
bles."

KlIties the Middle Sex.

The following incident has been re-
lated by Capt. Alexander Weel, Thir-
teenth battalion, Canada expedition
airy forces, Royal Highlanders Of Can
ada:
1.-THE majority of the people in
France look at the kilties with awe.
After gazing at us for some time one
of the women remarked that the crazy
English were sending women over to
fight for them; the second quickly re-
piled that that couldn't be so, for
there was a man with beard. At
that a third woman shook her head
rather solemnly for few moments
and then suddenly exclaimed rather
loudly: I have it; they are the mid
dle-sex."

WAGES WENT FOR FOOD.

"There are a good many foreigners
in Denver" says Ellis Meredith in the
Union Signal, "and there is d little
Methodist mission at one end of the
Italian colony. For several years past
they have fed the school children at
noon. During the winter of 1914-15
they averaged close to hundred daily,
and last winter it varied from 40 to
Soup to the second week in January.
After the first dry payday the chill
dren didn't come any more or only a
very few of them. They had food at
home. That is the kind Of argument
for prohibition that seems unanswer'
able to me-"

this plan no reseeding is necessary to
an old field Of Natal grass, as the
fall blowing buries the scattered seed
in the ground. On fields treated in
this way the first cutting for hay can
be made in about two months after the
spring disl1ing, and later cuttings from
six to eight weeks apart. If the truck
crop-melons for EXAMPLES not
planted until early spring, the grass
will be later in maturing. In such
cases little care and cultivation will
leave the ground sufficiently smooth
for the use Of a moving machine, and
the hay can be cut about two months
after the last cultivation of the truck
crop.
1t is desirable to pillow the Natal
grass field every two years. If the
ground is not plowed IN the fall, ear
lier cuttings can be made in the spring,
but after the second or third year
other grasses and weeds will come
In and the quality Of the has
will deteriorate. Without fall plow-
ing the growth of the plants in the
spring is also uneven at the time of
the first cutting and some of the stems
win be old and dry and others only
partly grown.
Natal grass seed is always sown
broadcast, as the seeds are apt to
stick together and will not feed even
" through a drill. To overcome this,
the seeds are dampened and mixed
with wood ashes before sowing. Many
planters think 1t better to leave the
rains to cover the seed, but others roll
the field or drag it with a plank.

ward off constipation and reduce dis
eases to a minimum. Rape, wheat, CATS
and rye sown In the fall furnish eH-
cellent winter grazing. Vetch may
be used to advantage with any Of the
grains. Bur and crimson clover sown
on Bermuda sod are especially recon-
mended. When the clover dies out the
Bermuda grass will replace 1t and can
be grazed until frost. Cowpeas, soy
beans, peanuts and sorghum sown in
May will furnish grazing in late sum-
mer and early fall.

"All breeding stock and young ami.
mails need liberal amounts az nutri-
tlous feeds that win develop and main
tain muscle and bone" said r. L.
Shields, head of the division Of ami
NAL husbandry and dairying of Glenn
son college, making suggestions for
the care and feeding of hogs, with spe-
eial reference to brood sows and pigs.
Professor Shields suggests the follow
ing feeding practices to the average
farmer who is establishing a hog plant
this autumn or winter.
1.-THE brood SOW must receive care
full attention. She must be kept in
good condition during CESSATION, or
the period Of the development of her
pigs, but one should not allow her to
become fat. The SOW must have ex-
eepdonal care If she is to produce
two filters year. Suitable rations
for the brood SOW consist Of, first,
equal parts by weight of ground corn,
wheat middlings and ground oats;
or second, equal parts by weight of
rice meal, wheat middlings and
ground oats, or third, equal parts by
weight of rice meal and ground oats.
Either rice meal or wheat middlings
may be used as part Of ration of
feeds ii preferable. Wheat bran may
ha ueed ne a mart of n ration of ma
ture breeding hogs. Bran is too
bulky to constitute the entire ration.
Skim milk and buttermilk are ex-
cellent for both growing and mature
hogs and should be used when avail
able.
"Rely on grazing crops to supply the
bulky portion of the ration, as such
feeds aid in keeping the hogs in
thrifty condition. They balance the
ration, reduce the cost of pork pro-

GOOD ADVICE.

A traveller entered an inn where q
Quaker sat by the fire. Lifting a pair
of green spectacles and rubbing his
eyes, which looked very inhamed, the
newcomer in one breath called for
some brandy and made a grievOus
complaint about his eyes.
"They are getting weaker and weak
er, he said. "And now even the spec
tacles appear to do no good"
The Quaker looked first at him and
than at the brandy.
Il tell thee, friend, what / think"
said he. "If thou wouldst wear thy
spectacles over thy mouth for a few
months thine eyes would get well
again."
