    Can Any Man of Thirty-Five Be
Heart Whole and Fancy Free?
By LAURA JEAN LIBBEY.
(Copyright. 1916.)
I>o you dream sometimes, with a sudden
thrill.
Of one whose pulses stir
At thought of you and your brave stron”
will
To Mess and comfort her?
Oh. life of my soul, it is better to know
There is one in this wide, wide world
No matter how far or how free we mav
go.
Or what fable we may have been told,
ahat f iongs to us. as the earth to the
sun.
Or the spirit to Gen who gave’
c«nain ‘hat we are one
As life and death and the grave.
I do not feel certain that the man
who is old enough to have expe
rienced the tender passion, yet who
is heart-whole and fancy-free, is eD
tirely happy or sat
isfied. It is not
natural for a man
to go through life
holding aloof from
women.
Every man has
a reverent, tender
yearning for wom
an's companion
ship, whether he
admits it or not.
It was implanted
in his nature with
mother love at
birth. Early mar
riages for young
| men should not be
! frowned down be
I cause of the belief
he would make a
wiser choice later on. If he tarries
too long under the banner of single
blessedness, he will be more than apt
to think he is exercising wisdom by
not marrying at all.
A remarkable specimen of manhood
is he who has reached 35 without one
heart affair at least. If a man, who
lmd gone, gavlv through the world to
that age told me calmly, unblushingly
that his heart had never yet thrilled
under a woman's smile, I would do
my best to keep from doubting him.
1 here are some things men never
will tell the exact truth about, and
their experience in romance is one
of them.
Unfortunate is the man who belongs
to nobody and has nobody who loves
him and belongs to him only, a man
may enjoy being a rover—at home
wherever he may happen to hang up
his hat yet he has the feeling of
always being a stranger, that there
is no one to miss him when he goes,
no one who would be happy were he
to stay. If he Is ill or weighed down
by grief or care there is no loving
companion, no second self, to whisper
his hopes or fears to: no one who
cares whether he succeeds in life or
staggers along under his heavy load
and fails: no one who cares whether
he has a warm bed or sleeps out under
the cold, white light of the stars.
Parents must go from a man in the
course of time. Brothers ajid sisters
drift the whole wide world apart,
finding other heart ties, friendships
run their lengths and lapse, but the
wife of his bosom keeps close by his
side to the very end. The older he
grows the more indispensable she be
comes to him.
The man of middle age pays him
self a doubtful compliment in declar
ing himself heart-whole and fancy
free. Should this actually be the case
he should hasten to repair the dam
age at the earliest possible day. He
should not be wiser than he who has
said: "It is not well for man to live
1 alone.”
Man Must Live in the
Present—Not Past. 1
•
By Rev. W. H. Barraclouah. i
It is of the utmost importance i
to the man who would help his \
fellow man that he live in the •
present; that he keep in touch ;
with his own age. It is possible ■
for us to live too much m the ;
past. )
The ages that are gone have i
made their contribution to the ]
world's development, to its sum 4
of knowledge; but we are wast- j
ing time, if our study of arche- ■
oiogy does not assist us in the )
solving of present day problems. ‘
We belong to today, and if !
we are to exert any influence ]
upon it we must sympathize ,
with its needs and catch its '
spirit of progress and throw .
ourselves into its activities, that
we may share its achievements.

Marvels of Modern
War Surgery Shown
in Army Hospitals
"I have seen two soldiers, with
shrapnel bullets in their brains, sit
ting up in bed talking and laughing
with their friends. Is there no limit
to the marvels of modern surgery?”
writes an orderly in one of the London
hospitals.
Quite recently a Canadian soldier,
whose lower jaw had been partly car
ried away by a fragment of shell, caus
ing terrible disfigurement, was pro
vided with a new jaw. built with a
piece of the wounded man’s ribs.
In another case a lieutenant in a
Highland regiment, whose lower jaw
lad been almost completely blown
away, was doctored in a marvelous
manner. The surgeon put a new floor
to the man's mouth, actually induced
two pieces of bone to grow on the j
lower jaw, fixed complete artificial
leeth, and healed the remains of the
ups, with the result that now the
man is as normal as ever, and the
only trace of his mishap is a slight
scar by the mouth.
In another case the successful re
uniting of the spinal cord was made
for the first time in surgery. A sol
dier whose spinal cord had been com
pletely severed by a shell splinter was
so treated that in a short time he was
able to move his lower limbs and grad
ually recovered his sensory powers.
Another wonderful operation was the
extracting of a fragment of hand gre
nade from the heart of a Parisian ser
geant, the cure being established be
yond all doubt.

; LiCE ARE COMMON PESTS AMONG SWINE
Grand Champion Poiand-China Sow.
j ('From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
The farmer should frequently exam
ine his hogs about the ears, flanks, and
inside of the legs to see if they are
lousy. Lice are common pests among
swine, and vigorous and persistent
treatment is required to eradicate
them. They may be readily seen trav
eling among the bristles, particularly
in the parts just mentioned. The eggs,
or "nits,” are small white oval bodies
attached to the bristles. Dipping does
not as a rule destroy the vitality of
these eggs. Swine should be dipped
frequently in order to kill the lice that
hatch out of the eggs after the previous
dipping. These lice are blood-sucking
parasites, and by biting the hog and
| sucking blood they cause a great deal
; of skin irritation. Furthermore, they
i act as a drain on the vitality of the
hog, through the loss of blood which
; they abstract. When lousy the hog is
j usually restless and rubs on posts
{ and other convenient, objects. The coat
; looks rough and harsh. This pest is
transmitted from one animal to an
: other by direct contact, or by con
tact with infected bedding or quarters.
Dipping Swine.
To free hogs from lice they should
j be dipped two or more times at inter
vals. of about two weeks. Several
I dippings may be required before com
plete eradication is accomplished. Do
not fail at the same time to clean and
disinfect thoroughly the sleeping quar
ters. Cresol compound (IT. S. P.)
may be used for dipping and dis
infecting. For dipping, mis in the
proportion of two galloqs to 100 gal
lons of water; for disinlecting, in the
proportion of three gallons to 100 gal
lons of water. Although not always
as effective as might be desired, coal
! tar products of the kind ordinarily
sold as stock dips are commonly used
| to treat hogs for lice. For use they
are diluted with water in accordance
with directions supplied by the ruanu
I facturers.
Dipping vats are made of various
materials, but the most durable is ce
ment. i See Farmers' Bulletin 481,
Concrete Construction on the Live
Stock Farm, i The vat should be
set in the ground at a convenient place
where there is good surface drainage
away from the vat. A suitable size for
a vat in which to dip hogs is ten feet
long at the top. eight feet long at the
bottom, one foot wide at the bottom,
and two feet wide at the top. It should
be deep enough so that the hogs will
be completely immersed in the dip and
will not strike the bottom of the vat
when they plunge. If possible, the vat
should be located so that a two-inch
drain pipe may lead from the bottom
of the vat to facilitate emptying and
cleaning, otherwise it is necessary to
pump or dip out the contents of the
vat in order to clean it. Do not use
old filthy dip, but clean and recharge
the vat before dipping again if the dip
has become very dirty or if it has
stood a long time in the vat. The end
where the hogs enter should be per
pendicular and the entrance should
be on a slide. The other end should
slope gradually, with cleats to provide
footholds for the hogs for emerging
after dipping. A dipping vat is very
useful wherever a large number of
hogs is kept.
Hog Wallows.
Some farmers favor hog wallows;
others are strongly opposed to them.
Filthy hog wallows are a source of
danger. Hogs wallowing in or drink
ing contaminated water are likely to
contract disease. However, there are
many advantages to be derived from
wallows. A cool bath is very soothing
to a hog during the hot weather. It
cleans the scurf from the skin and pro
tects the hogs from flies. Crude oil,
sufficient to form a thin layer on top
of the water, may be poured into the
wallow about every ten days. This
will tend to keep the hogs free from
lice and other skin parasites. If the
skin becomes irritated from the oil,
its use should be discontinued. Small
Quantities of coal-tar dip are some
times added to the water in hog wal
lows, but there is an element of dan
ger in this practice, as poisoning may
result from the absorption of phenols
by hogs which lie in the wallow more
or less continuously.
On some of the larger hog farms
concrete wallows are becoming popu
lar. The cement hog wallow should
be located in a shady place and made
so as to contain from eight to ten
inches of water. A two-inch drain
pipe, as recommended for the dipping
vat, should be placed in the bottom
of the wallow to permit its being
cleaned out.
Other Methods.
In many cases a Tanner is not finan
cially able to build a concrete hog
wallow or a dipping vat. If this be
the case, the dip. properly diluted ac
j cording to directions, can he applied
! with a spray pump or sprinkling can.
! or else rubbed on every part of the
hog by means of a brush or a swab
of cotton wTaste. Care should be taken
not to apply the dip stronger than
directed.
Another method of controlling lice
is to tie gunny sacks or similar coarse
cloths around a post and saturate the
sacks frequently with crude oil. The
sacks should be tied at a proper height
so that the hogs may rub against
them.
Change Pastures Frequently.
Swine can be raised when they are
confined in limited quarters if the
quarters are kept clean, but they will
do much better and stay in better
health if they have plenty of pasture,
i Divide the pasture into convenient
areas, so that the hogs can be shifted
from one pasture to another. This not
only provides fresh pasture, but af
fords an opportunity to disinfect the
pastures by plowing and reseeding ot
exposing to the sun and weather.
Intestinal worms, which are rathei
common in swine, are contracted from
feed, water, and ground which have
been contamlnatad by the droppings
from infected hogs. Frequent change
of pasture is one of the best means of
reducing worm infestation to a mini
mum. Hogs, however, should not be
allowed to run at large on open range,
as this favors the spread of hog
cholera.
DISPOSE OF PESTS
THAT EAT UP PROFIT
Everyone With Sound Sense
Knows That It Doesn't Pay
to Feed Ticks and Lice.
I By n. A. SPENCER. Department of
Animal Husbandry. Oklahoma A. & M
College, Stillwater.)
Does it pay to dip sheep? Thif
question is” ashed during the spring b>
many beginners in sheep husbandry
Perhaps an answer may be suggested
by the following question. Does it pa>
to feed ticks and lice? Everyone witl
sound sense knows that it does not.
If the flock owner is anxious to rea
lize all possible profit from his flock ht
should attempt to dispose of pests thal
eat up the profit.
The flock may appear to have no
ticks, but a few stray ones may be
lurking here and there, ready to bring
forth an army of ticks if conditions re
main favorable. This is often the case
and the final result is usually about as
bad as if you could see ticks when the
sheep are sheared.
If the ticks are thick it may be wise
to dip as soon as the sheep are shorn.
Otherwise wait three or four weeks
after shearing so that there may he
sufficient growth of fleece to hold
some of the dip. Dip again in about
ten days in order to kill the young
ticks that may have been in the egg
stage at the time of the first dipping.
Any of the coal tar dips, such as kreso,
zenoleum, etc., used according to di
rections, will give very satisfactory re
sults.
SELF-FEEDERS GOOD
FOR ALL LIVE STOCK
Interesting Test Being Made With
Dairy Cow at California
University Farm.
If the self-feeder for pigs, because it
lets them follow naturally bodily de
mands of eating just what food their
system required, is such a great suc
cess, the self-feeder might prove equal
ly good for other kinds of stock also.
At the California university farm, just
as a feeler, not as an experiment that
would certainly prove anything, a dairy’
cow has been fed since lactation with
a self-feeder. In one place is alfalfa
hay which she can get to at all times,
another dried beet pulp mixed with
relied barley, which it is figured wiil
give with alfalfa hay an approximately j
balanced ration. One trouble has been |
that she has been too interested in the
barley to take enough interest in the j
other feeds, and that is expensive, but j
by increasing the proportion of beet I
pulp she has been made to show better
judgment.
The test may prove nothing for prac
tical purposes on account of expense
of grain and concentrates. However,
one noticeable fact is that her bodily
weight remains without any change,
indicating that the system is a physical
success, also the effect on milk flow is
excellent.
Guard Against Accidents.
If using a large, matured turkey
tom for your breeder, trim his spurs,
and the hooks from the hind toe. and
he will not injure your hens. Hun
dreds of fine hens are lost every sea
son unnecessarily when this little, sim
ple remedy will prevent the tom,-no
matt®? h*iT large, from injuring the
hens.
Avoid Sore Necks.
Harden the horee's shoulders gra4
ually. Sore necks pay no dividends.
Care tor Turkey Poults.
Turkey poults must be brooded en
tirely away from all other fowls and
fed very cautiously; and to protect
them from blackhead, keep a pinch of
"blue vitriol’' in the drinking water.
Nothing has ever been used that has
proved as profitable to turkey growers.
Early Chicks.
Look well after the early chicks.
They will pay well if given good treat
| ment; otherwise it is best not to have
; any at all.

1 Accompanying Industries Also
Prove Highly Profitable.
%
The cheese industry throughout
; western Canada today is in a highly
! nourishing condition and is bound in
| a very short time to become much
; more important. The war has created
j a great demand f^r that article, and
its use abroad has given it a lot of
useful advertising. The article known
as Canadian cheese is now sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches,
but by the ordinary civilian consumer.
: who, having used it, is quick to ap
preciate its value. This means that
. after the war there will be a demand
I created for it that would not otlier
| wise have been. Up to the present
j th; war needs have limited the local
supply, but w-ith the increased effort
that is now being put forth it is hoped
that this will be met. As a matter of
course the prices are high, and the
farmers who contribute to the cheese
i factories are making money.
The cheese season is now fully open
I ami there is every prospect of an ex
; cellent year because the high price
which obtained last year will undoubt
| edlv be maintained this season. West
; ern Canada has all the natural re
sources for the making of cheese, the
feed and the cool nights, two things
essential, and in time it is bound to
become one of the finest cheese coun
tries of the continent.
The lower foothills of Alberta, used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose, will in time produce
cheese in great quantities, and doubt
less will soon equal the famous up
lands of Denmark.
The cool rights mean the better
keeping of milk and cream and
cheese, and that is a great thing for
the industry, especially when com
bined with possibilities of cattle feed
such as exist on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward.
The hog market, which may be
classed as cn adjune. of farming, is
an exceedingly good one. and the lew
cost at which the feed can be pro
duced. coupled with the high prices
reabzed. make this industry very prof
itable.
One of the first thoughts that occur
to the mind of the average prospective
setiler is the likelihood of suitable
markets. In this connection the fol
lowing table will be illuminating. It
is supplied by the P. Burns company,
packers and exporters, of Calgary, and
shows the average monthly price paid
for hogs for the six years 1910 to 1915
inclusive. When one considers the low
initial cost of the land and the small
overhead cost of maintenance and
feed, these prices challenge compari
son.

A farmer of Monarch. Alberta,
claims the distinction of being the first
in the province to sell a carload of
hogs at the high price of eleven cents
a pound, live weight. The sale was
made a short time ago at Calgary, and
at that time was a record, although
prices have since gone as high as
$11.1234 per hundredweight. With
such prices available for hogs the
farmer has a market for everything
his farm produces, as there is prac
tically no farm product which cannot
be converted into good hog flesh. The
uncertainty of results which attends
grain farming even under most favor
able conditions is removed when the
settler goes in for raising hogs, beef
and dairy products. With Western
Canada's cheap lands, heavy crops, and
climate free from diseases of stock,
the stock farmer is as sure of success
as anyone can be.—Advertisement.
