Where an early crop is grown, the
date Of harvesting is largely governed
by market conditions. If the price is
high, crop may often be harvested
probably when 1t Is half or two-thirds
grown, whereas II prices are low It Is
generally advisable to allow the tu-
bers to reach full development before
they are dug. In the case Of late vari-
eties destined for winter consumption
1t is the usual practice to delay har-
,vesting as long as it Is safe to do so
without running unnecessary risk Of
freezing the tubers.
Use Elevator Digger.
With few exceptions, the potato
crop Is harvested with an elevator dig
ger drawn by horses. When the crop
is sold from the field, 1t is a common
practice to sort and sack the potatoes
as they are picked up. The sorting or
grading Of potatoes In the field is most
economically done by using potato
grader Of the shaker or belt type.
These graders are mounted upon a
wooden sled and are hauled along
by 9 horse. The sorter has two

may be adapted to handle ear corn,
but such feeder must be of large
size and heavily made In order to hold
sufficient grain to feed bunch Of
hogs several days without reiilling.
In order that the self-feeder may
readily be adapted to different kinds
of grains 1t should be constructed with
some means OF regulating the opening
through which the feed passes. For
example, cornmeal or barley requires
smaller opening to prevent too rapid
a flow Of grain than is required IN the
case of shelled corn. A well-construct-
ed self-feeder win last q number OF
years, and as 1t may not always be
convenient to feed the same grain
every season some provision must be
made to accommodate different sizes
of grains.
Care should be taken to see that the
self-feeder is always supplied with
each feed, for IL one part of the ration
is missing the pigs will naturally eat
an increased amount Of any other
available nutrient, and in such a case
will make very poor use of 1t. For ex-
ample, when tankage and shelled corn
constitute the ration, IL corn were to
become exhausted the shoats would
naturally eat very large amount Of
tankage, which would. not only fail to
produce rapid gains, but would In
crease the consumption Of very high
priced feed. Too much emphasis can
not be placed upon this point. for the
beginner is apt to become careless in
the use Of a device which does not re
Quire constant care.

LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens
So Naturally that No
body can tell.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by a lack Of sulphuy,
in the hair. Our grandmother made
Up d mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade Of hair which is so at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition Of othsF
ingredients by asking at any arUk
store for a bottle Of ""Wyethss Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly.
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair. taking o;nS
small strand at a time. BY mayning
the gray. hair disappearss but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, It also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives It
an appearance Of abundance. a7
OWyeth's Sage and SplpEur Com
pound Is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and youthful ap-
pearance to the hair. It is not in

swamps and woods. Lincoln, a men,
Der of Early's company of rangers,
took an active part in all the maneu-
vers, and when word was brought on
the Sth Of July by some Winnebago
Indians that Black Hawk was hiding
in the swamp on an island in Lake
five miles down the river,
it was Earlys company that was sent
TO reconnoiter. They crossed the river
on RATS to the island, Lincoln among
them, but the willy Hawk had flown.
This happened on the 9th of July.
They returned up the river to the main
command, and on the 10th of July Lin
coin was mustered out of service. The
next day he started out with his COM
panions for his home in Illinois, That
night his own horse and that Of one
Of his comrades was stolen, and the
rest of the distance was made on foot.
Lincoln was very fond of talking in
later life of his experiences in the
Black Hawk war. On one occasion.
in the fall of 1859, he was making
speeches in Wisconsin. After speak
ing at Beloit he was conveyed by car
riage to GAINESVILLE. They traversed
the same route as that taken by the
army in the Black Hawk war twenty
seven years before. Lincoln recog-
nizcd it and talked freely about the
events Of that time, telling in his hui
morous way Of the difficulties encoun-
tered in his journey home after his
horse was stolen.
Gradually, however. in the three quar-
tiers of century and more that have
passed since the time when Lincoln
and his comrades camped in the will
derness, the stockade posts rotted
away until there was nothing to show
where the fort had stood. Then the
Daughters of the American Revolution
of Fort Atkinson took the matter in
hand and placed memorial to mark
the spot. It is a massive boulder of
native stone with a tablet of NASSAU
chusetts granite upon which this in
scription is engraved: "Near this spot
in 1882 in the Black Hawk war, Gen.
Henry Atkinson erected a stockade
fort. To mark this historic ground the
Daughters of the American Reyolu-
ton of Fort Atkinson erect this me-
morial."
