I'm 1900 there were $50 head Of
cattle In the country for every 1000
persons" he said. "This has now been
reduced to $50 head.
1.-THE figures for hogs and sheep
show a similar reduction. In nine
years hogs have dropped from 300 to
GOO head for each thousand persons,
and sheep from $50 to 450 head"
Doctor McCampbell said the meat
consumption Of the country is increas-
ing.
"The consumer must look for high
prices from now on" he said. 1.-THE
capacity Of the ranges Is decreasing,
and any increase in the supply of beef
must come from the farm, where the
expense Of production is much greater
than on the range"

posed hogs were vaccinated, while still
apparently healthy, losses amounted
to only A per cent, but when ~vaccina-
ton was deferred until the animals
showed external signs Of sickness
losses averaged nearly 20 per cent.
This shows that the man who puts off
the preventive treatment until his
hogs are sick with cholera stands only
about one chance in seven of prevent
ing fatal results. 1t is important, also.
to maintain hog yards and barns in
clean and sanitary condition.

Promptly on time the counter

the park on his chestnut steed.
In a uniform two men who are
unlike will look alike; two who
somewhat resemble each other in
feature and figure will appear as
twin brothers. So Remsen trotted
down the bride paths, enjoying
himself hugely, so few real pleas
ures do ten-millionaires have"
Along the driveway in the ear
ly morning spun a victoria drawn
by a pair OF fiery bays. There
was something foreign about the
affair, for the park is rarely used
in the morning except by unim-
portant people who love to be
healthy. poor and wise. In the
vehicle sat an old gentleman with
snowy side-whiskers and a Scotch
plaid cap which could not be
worn while driving except by a
parsonage. At his side sat the
lady of Remsen's heart the
lady who looked like pomegranate
blossoms and the gibbous moon.
Remsen met them coming. At
tne instant Ol lItll lANA
eyes looked into his, and but fof
the ever towards heart of true
lover he could have sworn that
she flushed a faint pink. He
trotted on for twenty yards, and
then wheeled his horse at the
sound of runaway hoofs. The
bays had holted.
Remsen sent his chestnut after
the victoria like a shot. There
was work cut out for the imper-
senator of. Policeman O'Roon.
The chestnut ranged alongside
the off bay thirty seconds after
the chase began, rolled his eye
back at Remsen. and said in the
only manner open to policemen's
horses:
We'll you duffer. are you 60

slow-running bay-ah, you're all

it more neatly" Y
