Stories Told That Would Make Baron

A Chicago packer was deriding the
lack Of ingenuity in England as COM
pared with the inventive aptitude OF
his own cOuntrymen.
"Why," said he, they tell me a man
down in New Orleans has invented
sausage machine. It's a big sort of
tool, driven by steam. All you have
to do is TO drive pig, up a plank,
through hole in the machine, and
five minutes later out comes thousands
of sausages ~
"What becomes Of the hide?" queried
the solitary Englishman Of the audi
ence.
"The hide, sir?" retorted the Chicago
man. ooh, that falls into another slot
in the machine and out come Glad
stone bags, purses, or if you like,
shoes or saddles--merely matter or
turning a screw"
"Oh, is that all" said the English
man. "We've used that machine in
England for the past thirty years.
What's more, we've improved on it,
Sometimes we found the sausages
were not up to our standard. Well.

GREAT BIRDS OF OTHER DAYS
Bones Discovered Prove That in the
Miocene Period They Were Truly
of Enormous Size.

In so far as birds are concerned,
some of the oldest fossils, in the mat
ter of time (Miocene), which have
fallen into the hands of science, are
those representing the great, flight
less, fossil avian giants of Patagonia in
South America. They belong to the
phororhacidae, II. w. Shufeldt writes
in the Scientific American.
Judging from such parts Of their fos-
sill bones as have been found, they
were evidently great terrestrial birds
of prey. Some of the species were
small, but this is made up for by the
others and in the case of one Of them
(brontornis) it had a thigh bone con-
siderably larger and longer than that
of an OK.
OF all the remarkable f1ightless birds
of this group, however, was the giant
phororhacos. 1t must have been over
eight feet in height, with skull big
ger than that Of full grown horse,
and much deeper from above down.
ward. We know little or nothing Of
these birds or what led to their ex-
tinction. With its great hooked beak
and powerful claws Of great size,
phororhacos must have been terror
to the animals upon which it preyed.
Skulls and some other bones Of this
bird have been discovered.

made four or five large signs an
.nouncing that our company would open
up that evening at the King George the
Fifth theater, on the corner of Ammo
street and Sandbag terrace. General
admission was one-half franc. First
ten rows in orchestra one franc, and
boxes two francs. By this time our
printed programs had returned from
London, and further announced that
on the night Of the first performance
a program would be gwen free of
charge to men holding tickets costing a
franc or over.
We had an orchestra Of seven men
and seven different instruments. This
orchestra was excellent, while they
were not playing.
The performance was scheduled to
start at 9 p. IN.
At 5:15 there was n mob in front of
our one entrance and 1t looked like
big night. We had two boxes each ac-
commodating four people, and these
we Immediately sold out. Then a
brilliant idea came 70 Ikey Cohenstein.
why not use the rafters overhead, call
them boxes, and charge two francs for
seat on them? The only difficulty
was how were the men to reach these
boxes, but to Ikey this was mere de-
tail.
He got long ropes and tied one end
around each rafter and then tied lot
Of knots in the ropes. These ropes
would take the place of stairways.
We figured out that the rafters
would seat about forty men and sold
that number of tickets accordingly.
When the tickethOlders for the boxes
got glimpse Of the rafters and were
informed that they had to use the rope
stairway, there was Il howl of indigna-
ton, but we had their money and told
them that If they did not like 1t they
could write to the management later
and their money would be refunded; ;
but under these conditions they would
not be allowed to witness the perform
ancc that night.
After little grousing they accepted
the situation with the promise that If
the show was rotten they certainly
would let us know about it during the
performance.
Everything went lovely and It was a
bowling success, until Alkall Ike ap-
Deared on the scene with his revolver
loaded with blank cartridges. Behind
the bar on a shelf was long line Of
bottles. Alkall Ike. was supposed to
start on the left of this line and break
six of the bottles by firing at them with
his revolver. Behind these bottles a
piece Of painted canvas was supposed
to represent the back Of the bar, at
each shot from Alkali's pistol man
behind the scenes would hit one of the
bottles with his entrenching tool
handle and smash it, to give the i'm
preston that Alkali was a good shot.
Alkali Ike started in and aimed at
the right of the line of bottles instead
of the left, and the poor boob behind
the scenes started breaking the bottles
on the left, and then the boXholders
turned loose; but outside of this little
fiasc0 the performance was huge sue
cess, and we decided to run it for
week.
New troops were constantly coming
through, and for six performances we
had the rs. r. o." sign suspended out
side.

A distinction should be made be-

cowpeas, peanuts and velvet beans,
which are hOgged off when the seed Is

forage, such as oats, sweet potatoes,

balanced grain ration gives the best
results. The self-feedcr may be used

Healthy hogs that have as much feed

statements apply to growing hogs
which are to be marketed for pork.
Mature brood sOws, where no great in

kept on green forage alone, except
those with sucking pigs. Gilts and
sOws with sucking pigs should re-

Food Producing Machine

8 The hog should be considered
& as a machine for turning feed
stuffs into pork. The more
quickly this result can Oe ac-
complished the more profitable
1 it is for the owner. 1t is COM
mon belief that if the grain fed
: to hogs on pasture is limited,
more forage will be eaten and
: cheaper gains produced. This
belief is not substantiated by
the feeding tests that have been
4 conducted Mt several agricul-
: tural experiment stations. A
4 full feed of grain to hogs on
5 good pasture not only produces
{ the most rapid gains, but usu-
ally gives the most profitable
1 results. When account is taken
of the saving of labor and the
{ reducing of loss from disease
by marketing animals at seven
: to nine months of age instead of
keeping. them for year or
s more, the advantage is almost
always with the more rapid
growth. The self-feeder system
! which permits hogs to eat grain
: at will either in pastures or dry
{ lots is becoming more and more
popular in the cOrn-belt states,
and there seems to be no valid
5 reason why self-feeders should
: not prove equally successful in
all parts of the country.

Fences for Hoqs on Pasture.

1t Is often desirable in hog pastur-
ing to fence off portions of fields tenn
porariIy. The present price Of fencing
may seem high, but hogs are also high,
and 100 pounds of pork will buy more
fencing now than it was possible to
get with the same amount few years
ago. A great many different types of
temporary fences have been devised.
Most of the board fences of the panel
type are too heavy and cumbersome
to be practicable. They are also easily
broken and soon rot. About the best
temporary hog fence is made of 80
inch or 36-inch woven wire. This is
easily stretched and tackled to stakes
driven in the ground. 1t may also be
used In fencing off parts of a cornfield
which are to be hogged off by merely
tying the fence to row of cornStalks,
When this is done the tops and ears
of the row of corn to which the fenc'
ing is tied should be broken off, as
then the hogs will not climb up the
fence.
Well-fed hogs are easily kept in
place, but underfed ones will require
more substantial fencing than is here
described.
