Tho averagu joraon baa the Idea
that tho hog la about tho toughest an
imal on tho farm and noeds very Ht
tlo attention. They aoo him wallow
ing around In tho mud and assume
that IT ho can stand that he can stand
anything. As a matter ot fact, as all
men know who have handled hogs, tho
hog 13 moro Busooptlblo to diseases
and moro orton affected by unsanitary
conditions than any other animal on
tho farm. Tho hog looks as though
ho could atand cold weather In great
shnpo because of tho large amount of
fat on him and yet ho is more likely
to bo hurt by a draft or exposure
thiin a cow or horao.
Tho Improved hoghouso has helped
considerably in eliminating diseaso
and putting tho hog-ralsing business
on a bettor paying basis than over
before. Tho fact that tho hog needs
as careful attontlon during the winter
ns any othor kind of stock has been
Impronsod on farmers moro and moro,
and tho" result is that wintor hogbouses
of modern sanitary construction are
springing up all ovor tho country,
Thooo houses aro designed In many
different ways, and many different
styles havo given tho best sort of ro-
suits. Tho accompanying floor plan
and poropoctivo show a stylo that
has many good points. Plenty of sun
Bhino is provided, which is most esson
tlal for tho health ot hogs. Tho "Sun

Hogs havo often boon known to for
age through tho winter in good shape,
but thoy cannot do tills and dovolop in
to high-grado porkors such as aro want
ed In tho market. Thoy will uso up nil
tho enorgy that thoy rccolvo from
thoir feed in developing heat to pro
tect .thorn from tho cold. Under such
conditions it 1b impossible for thorn
to dovolop Into flno hoavy hogs that
will command a good price.
Tho Iioubo shown horo Is built In
tho most modern way and is auitod

FORESIGHT IN CARLYLE PLAN
If England's Poor Had Been Settled on
Watte Land War Might Have
Been Avoided.
Seventy years ago Thomas Carlyle
saw moro clearly than the British par
liamentary peoplo sco today. Seventy
years ago ho proposed to tako Great
Britain's surplus population in war
ships and settle them on tho waste
lands of tho Cnundlan Northwest, in
stead rf nllowlng freo trade or frco
chanco to settle up tho AmorlcafI
Northwest. Had his ndvleo been fol
lowed there should bo 30,000,000 or
40,000,000 Englishmen by now In Can
ada instead of 5,000,000, and from
5,000,000 to 10,000,000 Englishmen In
South Africa instead of a fow hundred
thousands. There would havo been no
Boer war if Carlylo's insight hnd been
used CO or 70 years ago. Speak
ing of tho Boer war a noted Briton
says, "Tho only thing that saved us
was tho fact that tho Capo Dutch didn't
Join tholr kinsmen across thn Vnni
and Capo Colony was kept qulot by
tho Httlo band of English settlors who
were plnntod somowhat after Carlylo's
plan In tho eastern nrovlnco fin nr 7i
years ago; nothing else, nothing but
that, stood botwoen us and Irremcdl
able Jofcat."
Thoro probably would bo no compe
tition no mortal combat between Eng
land and Germany todny had Carlylo
been ruler in England, for tho British
empire Instead of counting some CO,
000,000 Englishmen would now count
moro than 100,000,000. Carlyle was
"tho first and greatest Imperialist, just
as ho was tho wisest Bocial reformer."

SULLIVAN WAS REALLY WORLD'S CHAMPION
w , . -Sfes. raj
John L.
Tho question askod most in pugilis
tic circlos Is: "Was John L. Sullivan
over champion of tho world?" This
haB been answered In the nlflrmatlvo
as well as tho ncgntlvo, noted critics
flisngreolng as to whether or not Sul
llvan really hold tho title. Tom An
drews of Mllwaukeo, a well-known
sporting authority, declares Sullivan
wns In reality tho champion, An
drows burrowed Into ancient pugilistic
history and unearthed tho following
facts to uphold him in his contention:
In 18G9 Tom Allen, heavyweight
champion of England, and Mlko Mc
Coolo, an American, fought for tho
world's championship near St. Loula.
and McCoole won on a foul In the
ninth round. In 1873 Allen and Mc
Coolo stnged another battlo and on
that occasion Allen was tho victor.
That victory restored tho champion
ship to him.
Lato in 1S73 Joo Goss of England
camo to Amorica and fought Allen
near-Covington, Ky. Goss won on a
foul in tho twonty-aoventh round. In
1880 Pndtly riyan fought Goss nt Col
lier, W. Vn., and won tho decision in
tho eighty-seventh round. February
7, 1882, John L. Sullivan mat Ityan at
Mississippi City for ?5,W0 a sldo and
knocked out Ityan in tho ninth
round.
Goss beat Allen, Ryan beat Goss.
and Sullivan boat Ryan, so why
shouldn't Sullivan bo looked upon as
this world's champion aftor his victory
over Ryan? asks Androws.
Sullivan's victory ovor Ryan, and
tho victories of tho other champions
boforo Ryan and Sullivan wero undor
tho old London .prlzo ring rules, 'but
thoso wero tho rules that renlly gov
erned In thoso days,' and It was under
thoso rules that champions wore mudo
and unmade. In further argument
that Sullivan was clmmpiou of tho
world Androws cites thoso facts:

Davis rose up to disputo it. and tho
men wero mntched for a $500 sldo bet.
Smith won and was acclaimed tho
heavywolght champion of England.
December 19, 1887, Smith and Kllraln,
nn American, fought 100 rounds to a
draw In Islo den Souvorains, Franco.
July 8, 1889, Sullivan and Kllraln met
In Richburg, Miss., and fought with
llaro knuckles, as had Smith and KU
rain. Sullivan defeated Kllraln in 75
rounds, tho battle lasting two hours
and sixteen minutes.
Smith was only the champion of
England, assorts Androws. Tho best
ho could do against Kllraln was n
draw. Sullivan, howover, bent Kil
rnin, so why shouldn't Sullivan have
been entitled to tho world's champion
ship without a question of doubt?
Some folks, mostly English, wero of
tho opinion that Charllo Mitchell
shared the championship honors with
Sullivan becauso ho hold Sullivan to
a 30-round draw In Chantllly, Franco,
but Mltcholl didn't sharo tho honor
Tho championship was Sullivan's un
til ho wns beaten; a draw scored by
nn opponent against tho champion
does not halve tho championship. Tho
)u!o on this question is plain.
Sullivan's fight with Kllraln was tho
last baro-knucklo battlo. Boxing
gloves worn introduced shortly after
ward nnd Sullivan popularized them
by using them in nil his theatrical
work thereafter. He traveled all ovei
tho world, met all comors and, beat
them all until Jm Corbott crossed his
path.
Corbett certainly was entitled to the
world's championship bocauso ho
fought Peter Jackson, tho negro, who
was champion of Australia, to a G1
round draw In 1891; beat Sullivan in
21 rounds Soptembor 7, 1892, and Jan.

thoy had spent on inflated salaries.
In order to luro tho players away
from tho major leagues their salaries
wero doubled nnd somo of them
tripled. According to tho ofllclals of
organized ball, it was this unusual
rxtrnvaganco of tho Federal league
which caused its downfall.
A fow examples of tho Incroasa
which tho Fedornl leaguo gave in
snlaries, shows that it was impos
sible for tho Federal league to ever
como out oven financially. Tho fol
lowing table shows how much salary
somo of tho players received undor
organized baseball and what tlio Fed

Not only did tho Federal leacuo slim

these exorbitant salaries for long
terms, but It gave thorn bonuses of
from ?1.000 to $5,000 advances at tho
time they signed.

said: "Thoy estimato that tho Federal
leaguo lost 53,000,000 In this venture
I tell you that $4,500,000 or ?5,000,000
would bo nearer tho mark. It was tho
biggest plcco of folly I over heard of
to imagine that any basoball leaguo
could llvo and pay tho plnyors such

It is estimated that moVo than sov-onty-flvo

Federal leaguo enticed away from or
ganized ball with the big offer of
money received moro than twico as
much as they recolved with organized
ball. This itom nlono would represent

It can readily bo seen now why tho
big issue in tho peaco negotiations is

Federal leaguo has under Iron-bound
contracts nt thoso inflated salaries.
Organized baseball has told tho Fed

this season as a finish for gowns,
fashion has turned to marabou and
ostrich feather bandings in a number
of tho frocks designed for spring and
for present wear. These bandings aro
wider than the marabou edgings
which were so popular a few seasons
ago, and ostrich feathers combined
with marabou or used alono are con

or gray with white, or in two shades
