Sort of queer about Newcombe,”
observed the Squire, when he came
home two da? s later. "He's usually a
quirk, all around business man and
ought to have got through with his

Hasn't he written?” inquired Ina a
trifle anxiously.
"Not a word.”
The following evening, however,
the Squire brought some fresh news.

he said, and Iria looked curious and

At the end of a week Paul returned,

No ' soliloquized the Squire, with
a melar-choly shake of the head as
the train bore away the young man

W T Hornaday. "is absolutely certain
to disappear in about one-fourth the

complish the same result.” Mr. Horn
aday points out that the present legal
bag limit is ruinously extravagant: foi
$250 any man may buy the right to
kill 30® head of hoofed and horned
animals of 44 species not counting
carnivorous animals that may also be
killed. Thus the richest big-game
fauna of any one spot in the world,
which nature has been several million
years in developing and placing there,
teems likely to be wiped out by man
within the next 15 years.

ENDEAVORING FOR THE BEST BACON TYPE
--i_
r 1111 ■ " — —i
Excellent Bacon Type.
Tue style of animal which best
meets the bacon carer’s ideal has oft
en been spoken about, but the desired
standard i6 not always reached, and
this in many cases is due to faulty
breeding.
To consider briefly one or two of
the indications as to what is really a
good bacon pig, we might start first
from the head.
Here.length of snout which partly
Includes length of jowl and the ab
sece of loose flabbiness so frequently
seen there, indicates as a rule a
lengthy animal. The idea has been to
reduce the cheap parts of the animal
and to increase those which are dear
er. On that account a light, forehead
is necessary, but it must not be at the
expense of width of back or depth in
the pig.
As a rule a pig narrow at the poll
(between the ears) is not the widest
on his top. nor is he the thriftiest of
feeders. There m^y be exceptions to
this rule, but it can be applied gen
erally. The advantages of a promi
nent eye and a smooth unwrinkled
jaw or cheek, as well as width be
tween the eyes, are that they invaria
bly indicate a smooth, lean-fleshed
animal.
A short heavy head Is invariably as
sociated with a very round body and
a wide and very fat back, altogether
a very wasteful carcass. The neck
should not be too long, otherwise it
indicates weakness and a short neck
generally goes with a short side,
which from the bacon point of view
! portant to note the character of the
] middle piece.
The ribs should spring from the
back, but they should not be entirely
round They should rather spring
well and allow the animal to be turn
j ed out slightly flat from the sides.
| There will then be less wasteful fat
on the top without decreasing the
depth of the pig.
What is wanted is a pig that con
tains a maximum of lean meat and an
undercut with as much streaky as pos
sible. The loin should of course be
covered and muscular, because so
much depends on good development
there? The rump should not be too
straight, otherwise the hams will in
variably be short. There should be no
flabbiness about the hams and a well
carried tail puts finish to a pig. which
helps It greatly at the time of sale to
the butcher.
The quantity of bone should also be
accompanied by strength of bone, be
cause It is not possible to carry a
heavy weight of meat of very fine
qnality without substance. Round
bone should be avoided as It indicates
lack of breeding and is invariably as
1 sociated with a fat carcass.
The pasterns should not be weak
and the pig should be straight on its
legs. This is likewise of great im
portance for exercise Is necessary in
the production of the best class of
carcass.
These may seem small points yet
they all indicate particular functions
which the bacon pig is supposed to
. fulfill.
PROPER FEED FOR
LAMBS PAYS WELL
Sudden Change in Ration Cre
ates Dietetic Disorders and
Consequent Loss of Life.
(By GEORGE H. GLOVER. Colorado Ag
ricultural College.)
A small percentage of loss In lambs
In the feed lot is to be expected, but
this loss in some instances is far
greater than it should be. When range
iambs are placed on a fattening ration
the change of feed is so sudden that
dietic disturbances cause a general
disorder and several dead sheep are
found in the pens each morning. This
invariably leads to the suspicion that
they are dying of seme infectious dis
ease.
In some cases the ration is not well
balanced to secure the best gains and
the conditions of care and handling
might be better, but these things will
account for only a nominal loss.
The change from grass to alfalfa,
corn, barley, molasses and straw, ensil
age, etc., must be made gradually and
herein lies the secret of the heavy
losses of lambs In the feed lots in
the early fall. The desire to get the
lambs on a fattening ration as early
as possible and failing to appreciate
the danger of too heavy feeding and
change of ration has helped to make
lamb feeding an unprofitable business
in some instances. A sudden change
of feed or overfeeding must be guard
ed against in the domestic animals, es
pecially is this true with the horse and
sheep.
FATTENING PIGS
ON SHELLED CORN
Experiment Conducted at South
Dakota Station Shows Advan
tages in Using Milk. „
Ordinarily, with all ages of swine, a
bushel of shelled corn will produce an
average of ten pounds of pork. In an
experiment at the South Dakota sta
tion. on an average for the two years
of feeding period of sixty-two days
each, a bushel of shelled corn yielded
11.9 pounds of pork. But when an av
erage of 163 pounds of milk was fed
with a bushel of shelled corn, an aver
age yield of 17.7 pounds of pork was
produced.
This was a difference of 5.8 pounds
In favor of the milk lota; or. in other
words, the milk was equal to B.8
pounds of pork. However, It must not
be understood that this quantity of
milk fed to a pig without the com
would yield this amount of gain, but
when fed in combination, as above
stated, similar results are to be ex
pected.
Healthy Poultry.
Clean quarters and wholesome food
are worth more to keep poultry
healthy than all the fhncy condition
powders you can give them.
Early Peas. .
Early peas bring quick returns and
may be followed by some other cash
crop. The dwarf varieties, such as
Nott's Excelsior and Alaska, are most
profitable and there will be plenty of
time for a crop of late celery after the
peas have been sold.
Importance of Skunk.
Economic importance is now claim
j ed for the skunk in that he destroys
j large numbers of white grubs, grass
hoppers, cutworms, hornets, wasps,
and other injurious insects.
PRACTICAL HINTS
AROUND THE FARM
Ration for Idle Horses Should Be
Reduced—Get Cows Into
Good Condition.
A Pennsylvania man bad a fine
young horse die from nothing in the
*orld but overfeeding when not in
work. If he had cut the ration down
to one-half while the animal was stand
ing in the stable idle, it would not
have had azoturia, a disease that is
almost always fatal.
When your horses take cold, a few
drops of oil of tar dropped into the
feed will do a lot of good.
When you put the horse in the sta
ble, wet from hard work or driving
on the road, rub down first with dry
straw, then put on a light blanket,
later iollowing with a heavier one. A
horse cared for that way will rarely
take cold.
Scrape the snow and litter off your
shoes before boing into the house.
Tour wife is an awfully good woman,
of course, but she often feels tired
when you come in bringing a load of
perfumery on your shoes and sit down
at the kitchen fire and perhaps in the
nice clean sitting room. Be thought
ful of these things.
If your cows come through skin
poor, it will take you several weeks
after they g« to grass to get them up
in condition to do good work. That
will cost you a good deal more than
it will now to give them plenty of
good feed to bring them up into good
condition.
A good sled is a nice thing to draw
manure out on if you do not own a ma
nure spreader. Have it about ten
feet long, made of good strong stuff
and furnished with & good bottom and
sideboards. By putting the manure
oti day by day as made, you can keep
your yard clean ail winter through,
and in the bargain have your manure
all drawn out when spring comes.
Water runs down hill. Think of
this if you draw manure In winter.
If you spread it on the Bide of a hill
when the snow comes. It will carry
off a good share of the goodness of
your fertilizer in the spring. You
can't afford that. If you can. few of
ue can.
Hardy Alfalfa.
We do not think that the value of
the acclimated Montana or Dakota
seed is as well known as it should be.
Scientists in the past have not always
agreed as to the Influence of environ
ment upon plants, says a writer in an
exchange. Some have thought that
both plants and their offspring were
affected by soil and climatic condi
tions. other that they were not so af
fected and that hardy strains would
retain their hardiness, no matter
where planted, north or south. Of late
they seem to be reaching neutral
ground on this question.
Lazy Hen*.
Lazy hens cannot now offer the
moulting period as an excuse for not
laying.
Place for Grapes.
When planting grapes, choose the
higher lands for your vineyard, so as
to avoid as much injury as possible
from the late spring frosts.
Immune Pigs.
The pigs from sows that come
through the cholera are more or less
immune from the disease
Incubator Difficulty.
One of the most difficult tasks cf i
the incubator operator is to adjust
moisture and ventilation correctly. I
Feel All Used Up?
Ever feel that you can go no fur
ther—that you must have rest for that
lame and aching back—relief from that
constant, dead-tired feeling?
Have you suspected your kidneys?
Kidney disease shows itself in back
ache, nervous troubles and disorders
of the kidney secretions. If tired,
worried, lame, rheumatic, dizzy and
nervous don't let a possible weakness
of the kidneys escape attention until
it turns into a case of gravel, dropsy
or Bright's disease.
Sick kidneys go from bad to worse.
Their useful work of filtering the blood
Is only partly done. Poisons that
should be passed out with the kidney
secretions are held in the blood, cir
culating freely, attacking muscles,
nerves and vital organs. The kidneys
inflame, sw ell and throb, and that is
the cause of sharp pains in the back,
or that dull, constant heavy ache.
For quick help use Doan's Kidney

them when you feel the first bad

BUYER WORSE THAN SELLER
In the Scale of Depravity the Briber
Is Far Mere to Be Feared Than
His Victim.
The man who sells for dollars Is not
especially dangerous. One knows
what such a person will do and trusts
only to that point of weakness. It is
a safe point because it is where you
can see it. Indeed, the poor devil who i
sells at any price is never so much to
be feared as the man who does the
buying. It is the latter who enter- •
tains the motive and who looks for the
gain. He not only knows what he
wants, but he understands how to get;
it. He entertains a hundred subtle ap
proaches to reach the man to whom a
tender of money would be an insult.
So many of us who could never sell •
find it exceedingly hard not to give.—

WHAT AN OHIOAN
HAS TO SAY ABOUT CONDITIONS
IN WESTERN CANADA.
TV E. Lewie formerly lived near
Dayton. Ohio. He went to Saskatche
wan seven years ago with $1,800 in
money, a carload of household effects
and farm implements, including four
horses and three cows. Of course, the
first year he only got feed from the
crops, but the second year had 100
acres in wheat which made over 2,800
bushels. He has not had a failure in
crop, and at present has 22 head of
horses. 15 bead of cattle and 35 hogs,
and owns 1.120 acres of land, all un
der cultivation. He has been offered
$35 an acre for his land, and should
he care to dispose of his holdings he
could pay all his debts and have $30,
000 to the good; but, as he says,
"Where could 1 go to invest my money
and get as good returns.’’ He con
tinues in his letter to the immigration
department. August, 1912:
"We have equally as good if not
better prospects for crops this year as
we had three years ago. when our
wheat ranged from 30 to 48 bushels
per acre. 1 never believed such crops
could be raised until I saw them my
self. I had 15 acres that year that
made 50 bushels to the acre. Our
harvest will be ready by the 12th.
We have this season in crop 400 acres
of wheat, 125 of oats. 90 of flax and
run three binders with four men to
do the stooking. We certainly like
this country and the winters, although
the winters are cold at times, but we
do not suffer as one would think.
What we have accomplished here can
be duplicated in almost any of the
new districts.”—Advertisement
