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

A Washington farmer has found the
following = good scheme for killing
lice on hogs. Set round post ln
the ground and leave II three feet
above the ground. Fasten tin can
on top. Fnsten large rope In the
can and let II run out over the top
down the post and run It 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 IL 10 make q large
shade near the oiler. This should be
large enough 80 that the sun will not
shine on much Of the ground and high
enough 90 that q 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 wailow" with this
arrangement

viii Hold approximately Twenty
Bushels Of Ear Corn.
So Arranged That Hogs Can Get at
Trough, But Not Into Interior
May Be Hauled Around Farm
to Any Desired Location.

A self-feeder for hogs. which will
hold approximately 20 bushels OF ear.
corn. Is easily made. The crib has
base 3 by 4 feet. and Is feet
high. It Is built on solid frame Of
2-inch lumber and covered with G-inch
crib siding for the walls. and ship
lap for the roof. The siding should
be spaced inch apart for ventilation.
Surrounding the bnse is a trough !
inch wide with fender on It's outer
edge made OF lumber 2 by = inches.
The corn Is DETECTED into the trough
by pyramidai arrangement In the
crib. us shown In the cut. Its flow II
further regulated by an adjustable
slide held In place by bolts with
winged nuts. The trough Is sheltered
somewhat by the overhunging roof.
made from boards 8 feet long. One
section OF the roof should be hinged
for filling. The feeder should be built
on skids or runners 30 that II may be
hauled about the lots to any desired

LADDER BUILT AROUND sILo
Arrangement Will % Appreciated BY
Farmer Who Wishes TO Get Into
Various Doors At Top.

.3ilO owners often want to paint
their silos; at least they should do 80
to get the most years of service out Of
t..em. Earl n. 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 80 as to run the feed carrier
In ti.at direction. Instead Of having q
stationary ladder at each door. one
lad icr of this type may be used. Those
who have been In shoe stores where
the rolling Indder Is used t. aid the
saiesMcn In getting wares quickly will
understand the principle at glance

USE CARE WITH STRAWBERRY
Easy Matter 70 Grow Crop. but An
other Thing 20 9sll-eaek 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 I'VE acres will find q 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 little
greener.
1t Is an easy matter to pick small
area. hut when several acres have to
be picked over every day. II Is not
so ensy. Shortage OF help is the main
trouble.
When picking for shipping neid
should be picked every day. II possible.
but for home market to pick over the
same ground every other day Is often
enough. 1t Is well 10 see that the
boxes nre well filed.

DANGERS READY
 FUR ELK'S BALL

Every one in 'Skagway is making preparation to attend the opening dance and warming up time this coming Saturday night at the Elks Hall. The orchestra is prepared to reel, off some live, snappy music and dancers will break the ice for the winter dancing season, by ac- oepting the hospitality of the Elks and joining in the first party of the winter season.
 The dance will be strictly inform al. No printed invitations have been sent thru the mails but the columns Of the press are used to con yey the glad tiding to the people of Skagway that all are welcome and invited to attend the dance.
 A general admission charge of one dollar will be collected from those who are not members of the local Elks Lodge. But that one dollars will purchase you the best that you ever had in Skagway. The floor will be- waxed up and finished down so that the light fantastic can be ripped over the floor with the greatest ease.
