KEEPING FEW PIGS ON FARM
Hogs Furnish Good Variety Of Meat

Feed Cost Small.

Nearly two-thirds Of the meat eaten
on the American farm is pork. the
average farm consumption Of pork be-
ing over 500 pounds per family. The
greater portion of the pork products
used by the farmers are produced on
the home farm. A small number Of
pigs can be raised cheaply. Kitchen
and garden wastes, and sometimes
dairy by-products, are available for
feed. The farmer usually kills the
hogs and dresses them on his own
place. The hogs furnish good vari-

when there Is work In the fields that

meant such things as cutting weeds
and brush in the fence rows, repair
Ing the fences, repairing buildings and
a great many other necessary things
but things that can be done just as
well when the ground Is too wet to

Rainy Day Work.
Leave no rainy-day work, another
rule says. to be done when 1t is not
raining, for profits are limited by the
amount Of outdoor work that gets
done. Rainy-day work is necessary
work and II II Is not done on rainy
dayslIt will have to be done later ON
fair days and will interfere with field
work. It includes things that can be
done under shelter, such as Smelling
seed corn, mending the harness. and
repairing tools.
JOt down In note book, the special
lists advise, the things that. will need
attention the next rainy day. This
will enable you to plan your work
quickly when you get up some morn
ing and find the rain pouring down.
DO; first the Jobs that are in danger
Of getting in the way of the next dry
weather work.
Put in long days In rush seasons
with the assurance that you can ease
down on rainy days or when the rush
Is over. And then comes that first
rule. "DO nothing today which can as
well be put off till tomorrow" There
are great many things that cannot
be put Off till tomorrow. If sowing
oats Is delayed until the warm, dry
days Of late spring, there will be
light harvest. If the corn is not sul-
tivated even for one week after 1t is
old enough to cultivate. the fields will
be weedy and the crops poor. If
dairy cows are neglected. there will
soon he no milk. This class Of tasks,
therefore, demands immediate atten-
tlOn. Put Off the other things to more
or less remote tomorrow when the
rush work is out Of the way.
Back to Old Proverb.
Then, when the rush work Is over
revert TO the proverb In its original
form. "Put off nothing until tomor-
row which can be done today" This
applies to work that may be done any
time within wide latitude, but the
time comes when it cannot be put off
any longer and 1t may stop the rush
work. Seed corn, for example. may
he tested and shelled any time after
it is thoroughly cured, but IL the
work is neglected until the fields are
ready TO plant, then that most profit
able work in the cornfield may be de-
layed. That is fair illustration of
'get-it-out-of-the-wa work.
1t takes more planning, more think
ing, and more force of character to do
this work. in seasons when there is no
rush work than 1t does to concentrate
on rush work. Only by using his head
can the farmer handle the "get-it-Out-
ofthe-way" work In advance, but he
must apply the rule methodlcally and
unfallingly If he is to get ahead very
fast in spite Of shortage Of labor.

WHY PERsHING WAS MISSED


J Two Lincoln (Neb.) scouts lost out

Scouts George Kennedy and Norman

They left the gay downtown streets.
They knew their only chance would
come when Pershing arrived in his
own door yard.
The two scouts hurried up the
street. They saw the procession COM

Just then the scouts ran into two
baby girls. One said her name was
Mary. Both were crying with the
cold.
The procession moved on. The ba-
bies sobbed some more. The scouts
took them along. By the time the lit
tie group reached Pershing's street the
babes had tuned up In great shape.
The. scouts turned into the white
house on the corner"
please, lady, will you warm these
little girls? They are cold"
The babies were taken in. The
scouts hurried on. Just one more
block. Perhaps they could make ii.
They reached the coveted spot In

II is mistake to pasture alfalfa
