THE UNwEANED PIGS.

National Crop Improvement Service.]
At two or three weeks Of age the
pigs will begin to manifest an inter.
est in the food Of the SOW. At this
time unweaned pigs should have low
set trough barred to keep away the
bigger pigs, and they should be en-.
couraged to go to 1t to satisfy their
hunger The use therein of sweet milk
and little mill feed or pig meal will
soon induce them to eat a great deal
in this way, thus supplementing the
milk Of the SOW and fastening their
sturdy growth.
Weaving at four weeks Of age is usu-
ally not of good practice: If not ac-
tually cruel, the change is too sudden
for best results.
Two filters year may be had If the
pigs are encouraged to eat while still
nursing, and if they are not weaned
until six or eight weeks of age. This
probably is the better practice.
When pigs are left with the SOW for
periods as long as ten to twelve weeks
she will wean them herself, but it is
time wasted, for two filters are Inn
possible.
When weaving takes place the SOW
should be returned to the pigs two or
three times so that the udders may
be MIXED out.

DISGUSTING AND DlsGRAcEFUL

If there was ever doubt of the
Presidents sagacity in keeping his
own counsel, instead of advising with
republican senator's, on problems OF
grave international concern, it has
vanished in the glare of what the last
few days at Washington have dis
closed. The Borahs and Lodges
themselves have given proof irrefuta-
BILE that the President was we'll war
ranted, and that in justice to the ma
TONS vital stake in the cause OF
peace he dared not take them into
his confidence.
These senators have shown gar
rulity which would besort well enough
with a crowd of scolding fish-wives,
but which ill becomes "the greatest
deliberative assembly in the world"
Bad temper and execrable taste,
however, are the least of their often
ses. They have carried their pygmy
politics and their spleen against the
President so far as to compromise
the honor of the United States gov
eminent and to bring about a situa-
ton which conceivably might dis
rupt or break down the long-labored
efforts of the worlds highest states

THE SCOUT WHO STICKS.

You make talk of your scouts who
are strong on the hike,
Who are there on the trail, in the
woods and the like;
You may have all the signalers, eagles
and stars,
First-aiders, athletes and sea-scouting
tars;
But if from all scouts you will give
me my pick,
I'll fasten my choice on the scout
who will stick.
There's a job to be done, it's tough
one, fear;
1t may take a week, it may take
year.
Who's going to do it? Here comes
the chap.
He takes off his coat, he throws down
his cap,
Looks at the job, shuts his jaws with
a click
Fellows, that's him, the scout who
will stick.
Problems arise as the job goes along,
Nothing works right and everything's
wrong,
When things look the blacklist some
scouts will say:
ooh, gee, what's the use?" and then
beat it away.
But some one fights on through the
thin and the thick,
And we find at the end the scout who
will stick. The Cave Scout.

erwise. The members of the boys pig
club and the county agent should con-
fer with the lumber yard and prepare
plans and specifications which will
avoid many Of the evils incident to the
average feeder built without thought.
In some counties building bees have
been held by the county agent and in
one county nearly a thousand self
feeders of the proper kind were built,
which caused an immediate increase
of 1900 more hogs on account of the
labor saving effected.

ION one occasion, after lecturing ts
some men from New Zealand and Aus
traiia. / was entertained for the night
and put up in IN officers hut. Before
turning in I chatted over the subject
Of folklore and soldiers mascots with
four officers. One Of the officers told
me that he carried a charm, and 1 said
! would like to know what 1t was. II
turned out to be simply q Swastika.
which was apparently new to him, and
be was glad to hear more about II.
The second officer took from his pocket
a small cross of grotesque form. which,
he Informed me, was his mascot. The
third officer la%ughingly added, swell, I
need not show you mine, because It Is
only q piece of coal, wrapped In a little
bag which I brought over from Aus
tralia." The fourth (and this to my
establishment. being the highest pos.
sible') said. II also have a mascot, but
I regret to say that / don't intend to
show 1t to you. I won't even tell you
what 1t Is, because 1t would spoil my
luck" Nothing / could say would in-
duce him to alter his decision. His was
the most superstitious case Of all.
1.-THE commonest charms among the
soldiers of France and Belgium arS
made Of aluminium and copper frag-
ments Of German shells. 1t is consid-
cred that If you wear a piece Of an
enemy's ~projectile it i~noculates you
against future danger from such
sources. In Italy the men wore the
kinds Of charms and amulets which
have been common In that country for
many generations-even centuries, !
may say. They consist chiefly of phal-
lie emblems, and may be seen by thou
sands in the streets and markets of
Naples especially.
What the Germans Wear.
IT have a number of examples of
German charms, some of which were
taken from German prisoners, while
others were collected by myself in Ger
many about II years ago. They are
of a character you might expect from
such a people, and consist largely Of
pigs, many Of which. I regret to say,
are grossly vulgar and offensive.
