That it stimulates is seen by the wonderful effect it has upon the lacteal glands In producing a great flow of milk which is nature's provision for the sustenance or the young. The laxative effect of grass seems absolutely necessary in spring followIng the somewhat heating effects - fects of winter food. It enables the system to throw off effete matters which would prove detrimental durIng warm weather and In short helps to prepare the animal for the radical change in temperature entered upon In spring. While animals are eating green grass there is as a rule no tend- ency to constipation , and it is rare for diseases due to absorption of ef- fete or deleterious substances to af- fect animals at this time. - Recognizing - ing the good effects of green grass we can argue correctly that a similar effect , if attainable during winter time , would be beneficial to animals at the first sign of costiveness. This would be especially true of pregnant animals and of the ROW in particular. It is the experience of very many breeders that sows while In pig tend to become sluggish and fat and espe- cially so where corn is the chief item of the ration. To offset this effect of corn feeding hi the absence of a due amount of exercise during cold and stormy weather , certain succulent foods are used by a few breeders ; but investigation shows that but few farmers comparatively make any pro- . vIsion of this sort. Few indeed seem I to understand or appreciate the dan- gers associated with constipation and obesity . in pregnant , sows , . hence they , - - - - - do not provide a succulent fOOd , avoid heavy corn feeding or see to it that the sows are made to take abundant exercise out of doors in winter time. Even those who understand the ben- efit of feeding a succulent food , find I it difficult to provide such a food. Roots take a lot of work , and help is so scarce that few have made it a practice to supply any great amount of turnips for stacIe feeding. Clover hay of good quality Is useful for cat tlc , but hogs do not take , enough of it to act as n. laxative , so that most people have depended upon flaxseed meal and slop to move the bowels sufficicntlr. If some plan could be hit upon by which green grass could be supplied to sows In winter and early spring before the new grass comes in , there can be no doubt that there would be less loss of , sows and pigs nt farrowing - rowing time and Immediately arter. This is out of the quect.ion however , but wo see that a new and feasible scheme has been started. We refer to the drying and pulverIzing of alfalfa fa hay to form a meal which leeeps well and may bo added to other foods with the idea of malting them more iaxativo. Alfalfa is even more useful for this purpose than sprIng grass ; for it not only opens the bowels , but Is most nutrItious as a food. Fed as an adjunct to the usual rations pro vided for farrowing sows , we are of : the opinion that this alfalfa meal will ! ao grand worl It will give the sows all the benefits of spring grass or clover pasture , and , by acting upon the excretory organs , should Induca the best of health and condition for farrowing and milk production. This i new food settles the difficulty at once. It does away with the necessity of root culture , which has always proved troublesome and expensive to the average farmer. It will prove better food than ordinary silage for sows , for there Is no risk or it becoming moldy or sour , and sour or spolle silage is quite dangerous as a food for stock generally and for pregnant ani- ! : : _ _ rnu _ ' ' _ r91MrkJtdYJls" . - - ' ? -.rr n4 ' . , ! M mals in parUcular. Succulent food alone will not , however , put the sow . In the best possible condItion for far- ' rowIng. A succulent food is abso- lutely necessary where much corn is . ' - - fed ; but more than food of this sort exercise is imperative. This is so with every pregnant animal. The muscles must be kept in normal tone. Pro- vided this is done , the act of parturIy ; ; tion becomes easy and nondangerous , 1- - and , as a rule , the animal will recover - er quickly and have a good supply or milk for her orrMpring. Together exer- cise and succulent food lessen the dangers of the farrowing season.-A. S. Alexander , in Farmer's Review. . Some Temperance I Items I _ ' " 'a . In Illinois , where local option pre- vails and high license is the rule , the , average savings bank deposit , per f capita is $20.75. In , Maine , under prohibition , the average per capita of savings deposits is $103.76. From . these figures the prohibitionists ar- gue that even from a purely monetary J standpoint total abstinence pays. 1 In 1840 Robert Warner , a Quak'r , applied' to , an English life insuran . . e company for a policy , and was told ' . that , as a total abstainer , he would - have to pay an extra premium , the company holding that the moderate use of liquor tended to prolong life. Warner did not believe this theory and started an insurance company (1 f : his own. Warner's company divided the risks it tool into two classes , one made up of total abstainers and the other of men who drank in mod- eration. In the thirty-three years from 1866 to 1898 the deaths in the list of moderate drinkers were 97 per I cent of those expected ; in the list of 1 -otal abstainers the deaths were only ' - . j ; 70 per cent of those expected. In other words , the death rate among moderate drinkers was nearly 40 per cent more than among total abstain- ers. During the last thirty years there died in Europe alone of alcoholism a total of 7,500,000 people. That is more people than were killed in all the wars of the nineteenth century. The authority for these statements is Matti Helenius , n member of the fac- ulty of the University of Denmark , who goes on to show that in Den- mark one out of every seven men who die between the ages of 35 and 55 , ii is a victim of alcoholi sm. ' If a man buys $100 worth of boots / and shoes he pays $20.71 of that I amount for labor ; if he buys $100 1.f f worth of furniture he pays $23.77 for labor ; if be buys $100 worth of . woolen goods he pays $12.86 for labor ; i if he buys $100 worth of liquors he _ pays only $1.23 for labor. Therefore concludes the Year Book , liquor Is labor's worst cnemy. The annual liquor bill of Great " Britain is $21.94 per capita. Dire per capita consumption of beer in Great Britain is 4 per cent greater than in Germany , commonly suppose to be the great beer-drinking country in the world. On the other hand , Great Britain , France and Germany aU consume more whisky and other ardent spirits per capita than does the United States. In prohibition Kansas the annual consumption of liquors per capita is \ less than two gallons , ns against"-1" , nineteen In the country as a whole. : \ Forty counties in the state of Kansas do not have a pauper. The jails in J1 thirty-seyen Kansas counties are wIthout a single inmate. Prohibition in Kansas prohibits more than 95 per cent. 1 _ I The strength of a man's virtue ' must not be measured by his extraor- dinary efforts , but his ordinary life -Pascal.
