Record Number Of Breeding sows.

Even greater than the record number
of breeding sows on farms in the Unit
ed States a. year ago, the number OH
April l this year reached the UMPIRE.
cedented total of 0,97O,0OO, according to
the United States department Of agri-
culture. While the average gain for
the whole country over last year Is
only O.3 per cent, there were gains
greater than this in most of the states
and as high us per cent in California.
Diminished numbers in the great swine
states of Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska,
Louisiana, and Oklahoma are sufficient
to leave barely a gain to the United
States as a whole.

"Don'ts" For Laying Tile.


1.-Don't let anyone lay your tile.
Tile so deep in the ground and are
covered up, so place the work in the
hands Of a competent person, and be
assured the tile are right.
2.-Don't lay any hut sound tile.
Test each tile by striking it with a
piece Of metal, and if it gives clear
sound il. is o. k. Cracked or Gull tile
may fail at any time, and it only takes
one failed tile to ruin the line.
3.-Don't use tile too small. 1t costs
no more to lay 4-inch tile than to
lay a 3-incll, and in addition the finch
will carry Is per cent more water than
the other.
4.-Don't lay tile too near the sur
face. Place them down between three
and four feet; they are. then not so
much affected by frost, and will draw
from II larger area.
5.-Don't make any more curves or
bends than are necessary, and avoid
short branches.
G.-Don't forget that the man above
you can turn his water onto your land,
md you have to take care Of it. BE
sure you consider his grade and water
she'd.
