TO conduct a country house profitaby,
there must be pig to consume waste
vegetables and skim milk. Since
pigs, like mules, become dangerously
vicious if handled roughly, it is better to
gain experience withyoung ones, which will
become attached to the person in charge of
them before they become strong enough to
cause trouble. Pigs six weeks old can
usually be bought for six dollars pair.
Give Your Pig a Clean Bed
A Sly must be well drained, with feed
ing and sleeping compartments six
feet square. The floor of the sleeping COM
partment should be at least half foot
higher than the outer one, and rooted
The outer pen should slope slightly, and
be provided with troughs for feed and
water. Don't grudge the piggies good,
clean bed twice week.
They are scarcely weaned when six
weeks old, so they should be watched a
few days to see what they eat The first
week feed them skim milk and Cruel. To
make the cruel mix quart each of wheat
bran, pinhead oatmeal, coarse corn meal
or wheat middlings, in twelve quarts of
water and boil for half an hour Let it
stand, tightly covered, until cold; then
mix with the skim milk. Give four quarts,
three times day, for two pigs.
Then they should be gradually accus-
toned to vegetables. The outside leaves

PASTOR W|THDRAWs
 ACCEPTANCE OF CALL

On the 26th Of January last. the congregation of the First Presbyterian church of this city extended to Dr J. A. Stevenson of Santa Ana. Cali fornia, unanimous call to become it's pastor to succeed Dr. H. NJ Campbell
 A few days later they were favored with message from the pastor elect to the effect that the call was accent ed, subject to the will of the Los Angeles Presbytery. At the mid week meeting of the church last evening a letter from Dr. Stevenson was read, in which ne stated that he had withdrawn bis resignation at santa Ana and recalled his accept ance of the call extended to him.
 His reason for the action taken was the strong opposition to his removal to another Presbytery and from his present charge on the part of his church, his fellow pastors in the Los Angeles PreSbytery and influential members of the church elsewhere Feeling morally certain that his IPresbytery would refuse to release him at its April meeting, he has with drawn his acceptance of the call that the church in this city may not lose any more time in securing a man for the place.

No man since Abraham Lincoln mas gone through such test the president in the last SIX months to avo.d He has tried pre- serve peace He would not sacrifice a single life to. make himself president for his life time"
 This talk of the president having kept the country out of war produces extreme wearness minds of those who have inteigenty followed the course of events during the past year What has the president done to keep the country of war that any man in his position could have done and would not have done if he had decided beforehand that in no circm- stances should the country become involved in war that possible injury could force us into war?
 No nation, during the present conflict in Europe would attack so long yield O every demand made upon and offer only empty but high sounding protests, have been doing for the past year against encroachments upon our rights In doing so have invited further and grosser encroachments It could be forced into war in any possible crcum- stances have done the very things that would most surely bring into we are proof against war for the present.

 After reading your articles in the
 paper I want to take this opportunity
 of indorsing what you have said there

 this work stronger than you have
 stated.
 Tn my own experience in testing and
 keeping monthly records which | do regularly. find that the cows which
 thought to be the highest producers are not always so, and the only way
 could have been convinced other than
 that was by weighing and testing the milk for monthly periods during the year. because I have found that some
 of my cows I thought the best pro ducers, while they started off at q phc- nomenal capacity. did not hold un and ! carry their own during the la"tation period, while others producing less milk i and a higher percentage of butter fat
 produced a higher net profit for the year.
 T have found hv setting my milk i and watching the cream line that there is very littie accuracy to he obtained. as compared with the Babcoc< test, be cause the cream globules from some cows milk are so much smaller and il takes thirty-siX hours for the same amount of cream to rise than would other cows milk in eight hours. and by that time the milk becomes curdled and the cream cannot rise. l find that the only way l can make my dairy pay is by testing out my cows and dis

Informing Figures.

writer in recent number of the Country Gen tleman undertakes dispose of few fallacies that people pleased indulge in regarding the live stock and agricultural products of different sections of the United States. Apparently it is popular GUS tom associate certain commodities with certain localities regardless of statistics.
 For example, Missouri is supposed to be the ban mules; but indubitabe figures show that Texas has nearly twice many mules Missouri and that the latter state has only few more than Georgia Another belief that the southern growing of but the fact is that Hi nois and Iowa the foremost states. They are 200 900 900 bushels ahead of all the other states except Missouri, which ranks third
 As for New York, what is the leading crop of that mighty state? Wheat, fruit, green produce? No-hay New York hay land reaches 5.OOO,O0O and pro- duces $50 100000 of hay year Hay crops cover al most twice much land the grain, fruit and truck crops combined. and worth almost twice as much as all cereals times much all fruits.

A Waste of Time.

It appears that great deal of time has been vast ed by congress lately in what in the circumstances is purely abstract mater-the resolutions in favor of warning American citizens against taking passage on armed beigerent vessels. It is of consequence now to the United States whether Americans are so warned or not. It is of no consequence to Germany and Austria but it is of some apparent consequence to the allies which, perhaps, have taken a deeper crest in the late proceedings in congress than any body else except the administration and the ant-ad- ministraton clements The victory, however so far concerns the allies, only be moral one. and far concerns the administration, only political victory of faction of democrats another fac tOn

That the sentiment of the dairy in torests of the Salt River valley in fla Nor of COW testing is gathering impetus l.; evident from the numerous express sions of interest from all quarters. Not only the farm improvement asso- citation. but now the individual hold CTS of dairy herds and the Maricopa Dairymen's association are taking the matter up.
 The general plan of the organization f the Cow Testing association is for the dairymcn in q cellain locality to call g meeting and elect a board of seven directors. who shall elect presi- l dent vice president. secretary and treasurer from their number This body shall secure and pass upon the members. decide the charges to he made and hire and control tester. The association should have about i twenty-five or thirty members so that the tester can stop one whole day with 1 each member once month. He will usually arrive in the afternoon. will see the cows mixed weigh. sample and | test it immediately and enter the
  eether with the weights and value of the feed He will stay all night, and in the morning repeat the operation 1 for the morning milking as well as 2 test of the cream and skinned milk if desired and be transported to the | next member in time to begin work for tine next day. The charges are usually about $150 per COW per year. but the exact charge is to be determined by the board of directors.

America Was Discovered by
st. Brendan, Irish Legend

The first discOverer Of America, &C.
cording to a tradition firmly held BY
some superstitious Irishmen, was St
Brendan. Brendan lived in the sixth
century, and, according to legend,
fitted out vessel and sailed west.
ward In the hope Of discovering an
island supposed to contain the para.
disc once tenanted by Adam and Eve.
He was accompanied by IA monks, and
the ship was "victualed for seven
years"
After sailing forty days and forty
nights they came to an island, where
they found "a hall with tables spread
with good meat and drink" They
then sailed on for a long time, and
came to another island, wherein were
the whitest and greatest sheep they
ever saw" After stopping for time
they proceeded with the voyage, and
came to a third island, called "ths
paradise of BIRDS" After wandering
about for seven years, from island to
island, st. Brendan and his monks re
turned to Ireland, where they aston
ished the natives by tales Of the won
ders they had seen.
In spite Of the wild and improbable
features of this legend, it was fol
centuries accepted as truth, and the
Spanish government sent out several
expeditions in search of the islands Of
st. Brendan. The st. Brendan legend
formed one of the causes which led to
the discoveries made by Columbus.

Irish Linen Sets.

Among the newest temptations
to buy ut the counter where the
table linens. are sold are the
luncheon napkins made especial
ly to go with Irish linen lunch
con sets. Many a hostess has
been puzzled to know just what
form of napkin to use with tie
Irish linen sets. Madeira nap
kins. though dainty, are hardly in
keeping, and the conventional
damask napkins are no more SO.
But now we find the solution in
the form of linen squares, edged
about by an Irish lace picOt.
Many of them are simply this
and no more. Others are decOrat-
ed with an ornate monogram or
conventional design at one of the
corners. While these may be
bought ut a shop for something
like 50 or 50 q dozen, they can
be very simply and easily made
at home; for the merest novice
can learn how to make a picOt
Or Armenian edge; and that same
novice can quite simply roll it
on linen squares of correct lunch
napkin size.
