DATES TO BREED BEEF COWS
Definite Time of Year Should Be Decided Upon.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 In order to have q uniform herd of calves, cows should be bred at defi- uite time of year with this point in view. For fall and early winter calves (November and December), cows should be bred during February and March. For spring calves (Fehruary and March). which in most cases is q more desirable date to have the calves dropped. the cows should be bred dur Ing May and June. Where milk for family use during winter months is not an important consideration cows may be more chcaply wintered, and calves escape flies and hot weather when dropped at that time. In all breeding operations pure-bred sires only should be used
 Breeders of pure-bred cattle, who desire to grow calves for exhibition, should breed their cows from the 1st to the 10th of December to produce calves of senior classification, and from the 1St to the 10th of April for calves of junior rating.

SELF-FEEDER SAVES MONEY
Expert at Kansas State College Writes Circular Explaining Great
 Value Of Device.

How labor and feed may be saved by using a self-feeder is explained in q circular issued by the division of extension in the Kansas State Agri- cultural college and written by Carl F. Thompson of the division.
 Mir. Thompson shows in the bulletin that more rapid and economical gains are made when the self-feeder is used than when the hogs are fed by hand. Plans and specifications for construct ing self-feeders at small cost are in- eluded in the circular, which may be had upon request to the division of extension.

GOOD PASTURAGE FOR SWINE
In Many Sections No Other Green Forage Is Used Than That Fur
 nished by Pasture.

Qrepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 The importance of having q good permanent pasture for hogs can hard ly be overestimated. In many hog producing localities no other green forage is used than that furnished by grass or grass and clover pastures. The advantage of not having to go to the expense of frequently preparing and seeding the land appeals to most farmers.
 Hogs do not relish grasses except when the leaves are young and ten der. Hence it is necessary for the best results to keep permanent pas lures well stocked. If the plants are allowed to mature they not only be- come less palatable but are deficient

Weekly Health Talks What Doctor Pierce Has
 Done for Humanity
BY DOCTOR CRIPPS.

It has always seemed to me that Dr.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. r., should be placed near the top when list of America s great benefactors is written. He studied and conquered human diseases to a de- gree that few realize. Whenever he found remedy that overcame disease, he at once announced it in the newspapers and told where it could be bought at a small price. He did not follow the usual custom of keeping the ingredients secret, so that the rich only could afford to buy the medicine, but openly printed the name of each root and herb he used. And so today the names of Or. Pierce and his medicines are widely known, and they stand for bet Ger health and better citizenship.
 One of this great physicians most sue cessful remedies is known as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. These are little, sugar coated pills, composed of Mayapple, leaves of aloe, root of Jalap-things that Nature grows in the ground. These Pellets are safe because they move the bowels gently leaving no bad after-effects, as so many pills do. Very often they make a person who takes them feel like new man or woman, for they cleanse the intestines of hard, decayed and poisonous matter that accumrlates when one is costive. If you are constipated, by all means go to your druggist and get some of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They may prove to be the very thing your system requires to make you we'll and happy.

Hogs Enjoying Themselves at Pasture

In feeding value as well. It is usually advisable to have some other stock in the pastures with the hogs to eat the coarser plants. Cattle are best suited for this purpose.
 It is impossible to state how many animals per acre will be supported by n permanent pasture. In most cases 1t is advisable to have some of the best supplementary forage crops to graZe in addition to the pasture. A safe rule is to have at least one acre of good permanent pasture for each brood SOW kept. Of course this acre age could be reduced or the number of hogs increased where a complete succession of supplementary forage crops is raised or where the land is very productive. A greater area should toe allowed if the grazing is poor.
