eNoME HAS PIG SCHOOL.
By MARY GRAHAM BONNER

"a little Gnome named Ships
thought he would like to start a
School. The Pupils he wanted were
the Pigs.
$50 one fine day he went to all the
Pigpens In the neighborhood and
talked to the Mother and Daddy Pigs
"'Now you know he said, you sure
" want your Children to know some
thing besides how to dig in the mud.
"'Well,' said Mrs. Fatty Pig (she
was named that because she was the
latest Pig in the country around), I
don't know that l care whether my
Children know anything or not. If
they don't know anything, they don't
know they're missing things-and
then they never have to worry or hur-
ry or scurry.'
You see Mrs. Fatty Pig was SO fat.
all she wanted to do was to lie
around and eat and sleep.
so Ships asked Mrs. Fatty's Pigs
Husband what he thought about it,
and all Mr.. Fatty Pig did was to grunt
at everything Ships said
"But when he began to talk to few
of the younger Pigs they quite liked
the idea of going to School each day,
and as the Mothers and Daddies didn't
mind at all one way or the other, the
very next morning all the young Pigs
arrived at Ships School

ment, their effect being mainly a
stimulating character to the nerves of
taste or secretion. They serve a pur-
pose in adding flavor to insipid food
and relieve monotony in diet.
In some dyspeptic conditions of the
stomach the use of strong condiments
like red pepper or tabasco sauce af-
fords relief by exciting the activity of
the stomach, but as to their value in
prolonging health they are much over
estimated.
The use of some condiments Is
likely to be abused, such as pepper,
curry and vinegar. When used in ex-
cess, they seriously disorder the d.
gestion. Curry powders of various
sorts are prepared by mixing strong
condiments, such as red pepper, gin
ger and turmeric and starch. People
leading indolent lives and indulging
too freely in the good things of the
by the use of exciting stimulants. In
warm climates this is especially not
ed. The advice given to those not
used to hot climates is to confine the
food to fruit and vegetables largely,
stunning heterogeneous food and condi-
ments and alcoholic beverages.
Next to salt, which is the symbol of
hospitality in the Orient and is ne
cessity in nearly all our foods, comes
pepper, mustard, ginger and vinegar.
Much difference of taste as to the use
of condiments exists. The Persians
like asafetida, which most of us re-
member with not a little unpleasant
ness as a disinfectant.
Certain condiments are best served
with certain foods; thus mustard and

hands of Mr.. Selfridge, Oswald Stoll
and other leading business men for

The sale has brought in nearly
100000 so far. There will be forty
eight flats in War Seal Mansions at a
rent of $1.56 a week. The disabled
man will get medical attention, heat

big entertainment room.
1t costs about $4,000 to endow a

DA|RY|NG IN
WESTERN CANADA
Accompanying Industries Also
Prove Highly Profitable.

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in highly
flourishing condition and is bound in
a very short time to become much
more important. The war has created
q great demand for that article, and
its use abroad has given it lot of
useful advertising. The article known
as Canadian cheese is now sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches,
but by the ordinary civilian consumer,
who, having used it, is quick to ap-
preciate its value. This means that
alter the war there will be a demand
created for 1t that would not other
wise have been. Up to the present
the war needs have limited the local
supply, but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth it is hoped
that this will be met. AS a matter of
course the prices are high, and the
farmers who contribute to the cheese
factories are making money.
The cheese season is now fully open
and there is every prospect of an ex-
cellent year because the high price
which obtained last year will undoubt-
edly be maintained this season. West
ern Canada has all the natural re-
sources for the making of cheese, the
feed and the cool nights, two things
essential, and in time it is bound to
become one of the finest cheese coun-
tries of the continent.
The lower foothills of Alberta, used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose, will in time produce
cheese in great quantities, and doubt
less will soon equal the famous up
lands of Denmark.
keeping of milk and cream and
cheese, and that is great thing for
the industry, especially when COM
bined with possibilities Of cattle feed
such as exist on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward.
The hog market. which may be
classed as an adjunct Of farming, is
an exceedingly good one, and the low
cost at which the feed can be pro-
duced, coupled with the high prices
realized, make this industry very prof
table.
One of the first thoughts that occur
to the mind of the average prospective
settler Is the likelihood Of suitable
markets. In this connection the fol-
lowing table will be illuminating. 1t
is supplied by the p. Burns company,
packers and exporters, of Calgary, and
shows the average monthly price paid
for hogs for the six years 1910 to 1915
inclusive. When one considers the low
initial cost of the land and the small
overhead cost of maintenance and
feed, these prices challenge compare

A farmer of Monarch, Alberta.
claims the distinction of being the first
in the province to sell carload of
hogs at the high price of eleven cents
a pound, live weight. The sale was
made a short time ago at Calgary, and
at that time was a record, although
prices have since gone as high as
$11.12h per hundredweight. With
such prices available for hogs the
farmer has a market for everything
his farm produces, as there is prac-
tically no farm product which cannot
be converted into good hog flesh. The
uncertainty of results which attends
grain farming even under most favor
able conditions is removed when the
settler goes in for raising hogs, beef
and dairy products. With Western
Canada's cheap lands, heavy crops, and
climate free from diseases of stock,
the stock farmer is as sure of success
as anyone can be.-Advertisement

A marked fondness here for things
American is shown among all classes.
American shoes are driving out the
wooden shoes of "Wynken, Blynken
and Nod" American clothes are rapid
ly replacing the baggy monstrosities
tnat once reached here from London;
the girls look like American girls-and
therefore they look good to me-and
your Dutchman is very happy when
you tell him that he speaks English
like an American. The only foreign
touch in public gatherings is supplied
by the spies-and not by all of these

The Hague looks at night like slice
