Prices Charged Are
warranted 31 a Ices His
Own Hog Food,
With Hotter
Results.
"That he is all through puyintr.
fancy prices for stock foods and hog
remedies and that he is raising some
of the best hogs ever placed on the
market," was the statement made re
cently by E. H. Beckstead, well
known hog raiser and authority on
live stoclc.
Mr. Beckstead's hogs are the envy
of his neighbors, and have "topped
the market" for several years in
Iowa. He states that for years he
bought high-priced hog foods and hog
remedies, but he is all through pay
ing extravagant prices for what he
can make himself. He states that
what the hogs need are minerals, and
tells the secret of his wonderful suc
cess by explaining that he takes
about live pounds of ordinary miner
aline (which is pure concentrated
minerals and cost only a couple of
dollars) and mixes .same with enough
bran or filler to make a hundred
pounds. All hogs, and especially
brood sows require minerals as they
keep them free from worms, and in
the pink of condition, and are essen
tial to the hogs growth and a well
balanced ration. This inexpensive
mixture placed in a sheltered box
where the hogs can get at it as they
neod it, will produce far better re
sults than any high priced so-called
stock foods.
Send two dollars to The Mineraiine
Chemical Co., 1G38 North Wells St.,
Chicago, 111., and they will forward
you by prepaid parcel post, enough
mineraiine to make a full hundred
pounds. Adv.

Farm Bureau Field Notes
C. R. Youiitr, Count j AKmt
I.I.I-A.R .WKl.K
A short time ago the morning is
me of one of Sioux City's papers
jontained, on its front page, two ar
.icles that were so in contrast with
he feeling of business men of the
.imes as to at once arrest the atten
tion of their readers. One of these
lore a caption calling attention to
.he optimism of the steel corpora
ion, and the other to the optimism
)f the manufacturers of farnvng im
plements. Especially when we read the sec
intl head-lines, we were forced to
.vonder who would not feel satisfied,
f he was not yet feeling the pinch
f the times nnd was holding his pa
trons at his mercy. However, a
jnjust as "big business" has often
)een in the past there has always
ieen a way to side-step them or tc
nake and enforce laws for thur con
trol. ,; -j .
Knowing of the vast amount of
nachinery that each year lies idle
lecause it is out of repair oi is not
(trictly modern, the Dakota County
Farm Bureau is urging the use of
.his and of as little new machinery
is possible. Not only should sec
ondhand machinery be brought into
ise, but neighborhoods should co
derate in the exchange of imple
ments. The Farm Bureau has there
fore, set aside the week beginning
February 20th to be known as Farm
Machinery Repair Week. Where
oarts are to be ordered this should
e done at once as much time is of
ten consumed in getting them.
Nothing helps to cut prices like re
luced buying. They stopped buying
the farmers' produce and pricas drop
ped. If this policy is continued it
will do the same with the other fel
low's business. We only nsk for jus
tice. Let us "stick until we get it.
Remember, neither you nor your
blacksmith can do all that is neces
sary during a few days just before
spring work begins. February 20th
vill be full late to begin this work.
St. Mark's Church, New York.
The site of St. Mark's church is the
oldest church site In New York and
litis been consecrated lo religious serv
ice for '.'GO years. Peter Stuyvesant,
the Dutch gocnior of New Nether
lands erected the first little private
chapel In lOtiO. He and bis wife, Ju
dith, were burled underneath the chap
el. In her will she left the church to
the Dutch Reformed Church of New
York, providing that the tomb be pre
served. The building wus allowed to
fall Into decay until 171)3, when Petrus
Stuyennt, n great-grandson, proposed
to the estry of Trinity church that
tin Episcopal church be erected on the
site, the cornerstone if which was laid
In 1705 and the church completed May
0, 1700. The steeple was added In
1S20 nnd the porch a few years later.
Since 1850 no material changes In the
present appearance of the church have
been made, und the church proper Is
Identically the same ns It was one
hundred jours ago. Peter Stuyvesant
and his wife are burled In the vault
beneath the porch of the church.
to" remove tattoo marks I1
Process Is by No Means Easy, Though
Modern Science Hat Shown It
. to De Practicable.
Tattooing Is the mechanical Intro
duction of pigments under the skin
and a orj well-known process. The
pigments employed tire carbon, cinna
bar, carmine and Indigo.
Most methods emplo.ved to remove
these marks, says Science and Inven
tion, are by a reactive and a destruc
tive liilltuninatlon which will result
In the formation of a crust, later cast
off together with tattooed markings.
One method Is to relation the murks
with a solution of HO parts of zinc
chlorld and !() parts of water. A
mild lullaiimiatlou will result ; a crust
forms ami about a week later this
falls off, leaving a scar which gradual
ly heals. Later a repetition of this
may be necessary. This may be done
by the professional tattooer.
The second method Is to tnttoo
again, making the punctures close to
gether after the design bus been drawn
over with a concentrated solution of
tannin. A stick of silver nitrate Is
then firmly drawn over the surface
and after a period of several minutes
It Is then wiped olT. This Is far more
effective than the tlrst and less bear
forms. Two other substances, per
haps more elliclent than either of the
aboe, and applied hi the same man
ner as the first, are carold and glyce
rol c of papold.
The Right Way to Read.
The only way to read with any
elllclency Is to read so heartily that
dinner time comes two hours before
you exported It. To sit with your
I.lvy before you and bear the gece
cackling that save the capital, and to
see with your own eyes the Carthagin
ian sutlers gathering up the rings of
the Rinnan knights after the battle of
Cannae and heaping them Into
bushels; and to be so Intimately pres
ent at the actions you are reading of
that when anyone knocks at the door
It will take you two or three seconds
to determine whether you are In your
own study or hi the plulns of Lorn
hardy looking at Hannibal's weather
beaten face that Is the only kind of
study that Is not tiresome, almost the
only kind that Is not useless. Sydney
Smith.

Amber as Medicine.
The medicinal uses of umber have
receutly been discussed, and It Is
somewhat curious to find the belief In
the curative virtue of amber neck
laces, In cases of cold In the head,
still seriously held In China. One
correspondent reports such u cure In
a case that had refused to yield to
any other treatment, nnd attributes It
to the action of amber so worn on
the mucuous membrane. Another goes
only bo far as to suggest that since
amber had apparently a curative val
ue as used Internally by the old physi
cians, Its use In necklaces had a ra
tional baslH "according to the lews
once In vogue," which Is reasonable
enough.
