may be adapted to handle ear corn,
but such a feeder must be of large
size and heavily made In order to hold
sufficient grain to feed a bunch of
hogs several days without reflling.
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 will 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 If 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 ii. For ex-
ample, when tankage and shelled corn
constitute the ration. If 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 a 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 device which does not re-
Quire constant care.

MANY SHEEP KILLED BY DOGS
mails Are Suggested by AgricuI-

prepared by the United States Depart

Uniform state laws are advocated by
the United States department of agri-
culture as being the most effective
method of dealing with the sheep-kill-
ing dog. Investigation by the depart
ment among sheep owners In IS states
east Of the Rocky mountains shows
that out of a total of $3.50, 402 sheep In
the SOP counties reporting. 34.683 were
killed by dogs in one year Q913) and
were paid for by the counties. At the
same rate of loss In other farm states
the total annual destruction of sheep
by dogs would be 107,760.
But these figures are based only
upon the number actually paid for, and
1t is more than probable that the true
losses far exceed this. 1t Is known
that many sheep are killed which are
never reported to the county official.
In 1913 crop reports in 36 states sub
mitted estimates which showed that
the number of sheep In those states
could be increased $50 per cent with
out dlsplacing other live stock. Such
an increase would place approximate
ly 34,000,000 more sheep in these
states than there are now. OF 1,411

HE HAD SUFFERED
FOR Is YEARS
CHARLES WENTWORTH Is RE
LIEYED OF TROUBLES BY
TAKING TANLAC

"Tanlac has proven to be just the
medicine l have been needing for fiji
teen long years." said Charles H.
Wentworth whose address is Box 179,
r. F. d. Route No. l, Berkeley, Calf,
while in the Owl Ddrug Store in Oak
land, Calf, recently.
Il suffered with Indigestion so bad
that it just looked like almost any
thing l would eat would put me in
misery" continued Mr.. Wentworth,
81 didn't dare to eat anything that was
the least bit greasy because if l did
would be terribly nauseated, and at
times the gas that would form in my
stomach would press so against my
heart that it would palpitate so fast
that l would just feel like l was going
to collapse. l was troubled a lot
with dizzy spells too and if l happened
to be on the street when one of these
attacks came on me l would just have
to lean up against a building, or if l
was home at the time l would have to
lie down until the dizziness wore of.
For the past eight or ten years l have
not been able to sleep we'll at all and
would always get up in the mornings
feeling all tired and worn out, and
suffered with splitting headaches, too,
and was troubled a good deal with aw-
full pains in my back, right across my
kidneys. Sometimes in the mornings
these pains would be so bad that 1
could hardly get up, but would just
have to ease myself out of bed the best
way 1 could and if l would make a
quick move of any kind a sharp pain
would strike me like / had been
struck with knife.
Il was just in this shape when I be-
gan taking Tanlac, but / could notice
difference by the time had finished
my first bottle and it wasn't long be-
fore got so 1 could just eat anything
and everything / wanted without suf-
fering bit in my stomach afterwards.
l am never troubled with palpitation
of the heart anymore and have been
completely relieved of those dizzy
spells. The rheumatism has left me
completely, / am not troubled with
those pains in my back and all that is
left of those awful headaches is Just
the memory of them. 1 sleep like a
log for eight or nine hours every night
and get up in the morning feeling fine;
in fact, Tanlac has helped me so much
that I am actually feeling years young

me and l can't say enough for it,"

USE SELF-FEEDERS FOR HOGS
Device viii Give as Good Results as
Most Expert Hand Feeder-Tlme
and Labor Saved.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
BY means of the self-feeder the av-
erage farmer will have as good results
as the most expert hand-feeder. and
the results will be obtained at much
less expense of time and labor. For
the average farmer there is little doubt
which method Is the more economical,
for the self-feeding system is advan-
tageous In every respect. Its use re-
suits, first, In larger daily gains In live
weight, bringing the pigs to market
able size at an earlier date; second,
feed is consumed more rapidly, and
consequently gains are more rapid;
and, third, as there is an actual saving
in the amount of feed required to pro-
duce 100 pounds of gain, 1t is shown
that the increased feed consumption
and the more rapid daily gains are not
made at the expense of efficient use of
the feed. On the contrary, a smaller
amount of feed is consumed In making
pork, which is fact of extreme i'm
portance at present. The last and one
of the most important advantages to
the farmer at this time is the saving of
labor, for although daily watch must
be kept on the self-feeder to see that
each compartment is well supplied and
not clogged, this requires only a frac-
ton of the time necessary to hand
feed the same hogs several times a
day.
The self-feeder may be adapted to
the use of any kind of grain or feed.
although shelled grain and ground
feeds are most commonly used. 1t

Of the conveniences and the style OF
the modern house; and In many cases
their owners become dissatisfied and
wish they had more up-to-date house.
To only a very few does the
thought occur that their good house
can have all these modern conven-
fences and style. The majority of inn
proyements can be made at compare
lively little expense.
Many a good plain house can have a
number of modern improvements add
ed to 1t that will make It more conven-
TENT and comfortable on the inside,
also a few well-chosen changes and
additions on Its exterior that will alter
1t so that 1t will have a certain snap TO
its appearance so as to make it stand
out from the commonplace house.
A very interesting example of what
one can accomplish at comparatively
slight expense In enlarging and max
ing more convenient the small home is
illustrated here.
The man who bought this little house
went to a contractor with a little
snapshot photo of the house and
a rough pencil sketch of the floor lay

times business man.
The owner and his wife wanted all
the modern conveniences lnstalled-a
bathroom was absolutely required, and
they wanted dining room and good
sized living room with an open fire.

I The contractor took a look at the
house and made careful measurements
and In few days he showed the own

showing how 1t could be changed to
get the desired improvements. When
a few minor changes were made 1t ex-
actly suited the requirements of the
owner and his wife. AS the plans of
the house show, 1t contained foui
good-slzed rooms. The house was
excellently built; the walls were
sheathed and clapboarded, and between
the studs sheathing quilt had been
used, making a very warm house.
Despite Its excellent construction, 1t
had no attractiveness and was sold at
q good deal less than 1t cost.
The old owner had lost sight of the
fact that 1t Is the convenient and at
tractive house that can be sold at a
good price when 1t is necessary to sell.
