1t is as natural for the hog to want
to wallow as it is for the small boy to
scurry to the old swimming hole with
the first breath of spring. Hot weather
is hard on fat animals, the pOrtly
porker included. That is why a we'll

Coney Island bathing beach for the
hogs. A popular and serviceable type
IF wallow advocated by the United
States department of agriculture
should be made of concrete about ~
inches in depth and large enough to
Accommodate the herd Of hogs. The
wallow should be supplied with sat
sfactory intake and outlet so that it
can be filed about two-thirds full of
water and drained every few days, or

time a test is being made at the ex-

Of this investigation will be published
upon completion early in the fall.
Temperature Extremes.
The hog grower in many of the lead
ing pork-producing states faces two
temperature extremes during the year.
During the winter, unless he provides
comfortable houses and warm quarters,
his hogs are likely to suffer from the
cold, while in the summer season he
must handle the animals under condi-
tons Of extreme heat. Any animal as
fat as the average hog which is to be
marketed in the late summer or early
fall suffers greatly during hot weather,
and unfortunately many hog farmers
neglect to provide shelter and protec-
ton for their hogs from the extreme

APPLY MANURE IN ORCHARDS
Failure Of Many Trees to Produce
Fruit Is Due to Lack Of Necessary
Plant Food.

Undoubtedly the failure, or partial
failure, Of many fruit trees to bring
forth crop is due to lack of plant
food. Professional orchardists look
after this matter, but the average
farmer who has few trees, which he
dignifies by the name Of "orchard,"
gives scant heed to providing them
with fertility He may turn the sheep
or the calves in among them but such
fertility as they add is apt to he of
slight value, comparatively speaking.

PURE SORGHUM SEED

Work Can Be Done Easily by Man on

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
In order to obtain pure sorghum
seed it is usually necessary to go over
the field carefully after it has headed
out and remove the rogues or off-type
plants. Every plant which does not
conform to the type which is desired
should be cut down, or, better, pulled
up so that there will be no danger of
the production Of seed from tillers
produced by the rogue.
In dwarf varieties the rogueing can
be done easily by man on foot, but
in the taller growing sorts it is most
practical to ride through the field on
horseback so that the workers can see

EXAMINE LAND FOR ALFALFA
Frequent Behring'S Should Be Made
With Anger to Determine Char
acter Of the Soil.

In examining tract of land for al
falfa frequent borings should be made
with soil auger to determine the
character Of the soil and subsoil as
well as the drainage conditions. This
instrument usually will be Of greater
value in determining the adaptability
Of particular tract to alfalfa than a
chemical analysis of the soil. A COM
mon IL Inch auger with the shank
heightened and a suitable crossbar for
handle is practical for this use.

FULL-CR0P YIELD OBTAINED
Sufficient Fertilization, Pure Seed and
Careful Cultivation Are of
Importance.

There are three agents that are
sometimes neglected, but through
which the full-crOp yield can he OH
tanned. They are, sufficient fertiliEa-
ton, pure seed and careful cultiva-
ton. The proper use of fertilizer will
make the stalks and stems stronger
and thus more impervious to the at
tacks of vegetable parasites or the
spittel of insects. 1t will give weight,
color and size to the fruit and ma
terially hasten maturity.

heat. During hot weather hogs need
an abundance of shade-natural shade,
such as is furnished by trees and
bushes being the best.
Temporary Shelter.
Where natural shade and shelter are
not available, the hog owner should
put up temporary shelter by building
n framework about 4 feet high and
thoroughly covering the top with
brush, straw, grass, or hay. This mex
pensive sunshade should be of suffi-
cient size to protect herd of hogs in
comfort as they lie under 1t. AS a rule,
the ordinary hog house should not be
used for shade purposes during the
summer. Each year hog mortality is
comparatively heavy due to "porker
sunstroke" induced by maintaining the
hogs in the open without sufficient pro-
lection from the rudy glow Of Old
Soils furnace.

Important to all Women
Readers Of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney OF bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita-
BILE and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that Dr..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp-Root, the great kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, will do fol-
them. BY enclosing ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, you
may receive sample size bottle by Parcel

The young animals should require

cool rains and other animals they will
not thrive. This Is where good be-

Let the strawberry runners set at

This allows runners to set which

BALTIMORE, November 2S.-Unitcd

win be a candidate for Reelection to
the Senate, according TO an announce
me1t of District Attorney Samuel X.

Smiths closest friend and an announce
mcnt from him concerning Senator
Smiths intentions is regarded as equiv
alent to an announcement from the SEN
ator himself.
The statement was made by Mr..
Dennis after conference with Gov
elect Richie. Hence. it is presumed
that he made known the senator's
purpose to the next governor. 1t is
understood he will be renoninated
without opposition. Two situations
prcmSc this idea. One is Senator
Smiths political strength. which eau
not easily be overcome. and the other
is the lack of confidence in the result.
even if victory should be achieved
in the primaries, owing to the DIS
