Pointers
' Feeder pigs have, been, In In
creasing' demand- during tho 'last
few years, chiefly from runners In
the, corn belt ami from men who
devote their time to tho business of
full en lag pigs. Other demands
come from garbage-feeding und
serum plants near large el lien,
feeder pigs generally weigh from
7ft lo Ilia pounds, sometimes up to
liio pounds.
There now nre on the market
small, compact sets for testing soil
acidity. Those are easily handled
and a fanner can test the fields
himself,. Many farms contain a
variety of soils, .and sometimes
only part of a field will be acid.
It is well to .make a number of
soll-acldliy tests In different parts
of a field to avoid unnecessary
applications of lime.
To determine fairly nccuratelv
the number of tons of hay in a
slack, multiply the- ."over," or the
distance from the ground on one
side over the top, to the ground on
the other, by Die width at Ibe
ground, then by the. length, and
then by 11.87. (icne rally h I cubic

A suckling colt that Is being
broken soon will become accus
tomed to the conditions and noises
associated with work If he Is tied
to his mother's truce when shy Is
worked. The. tie can be mude at
the union of the buck baud and Ibe
truce and should be short enough
to prevent the colt from getting in
front of the team. This practice
should be eont luued at short ln
lervals uud only until the colt Is
broken to lead.
The leaves of an alfaim plant
contain about two-thirds of the
feeding value of the. plant, und al
falfa hay should he put in the stack
or mow with us inuuy leaven as
possible. The hay should be bun
dled as little a possible after tt

lie fore It becomes brittle.

Eat vegetables for beauty
What we eat has to do with how we look
Eat vegetables for a healthy hence clear
and beautiful skin, is the way a recent
address by a professor of medicine might be
summed up. Specifically he men'ioned cab
bane, carrots and spinach. It may be news to
many women thnt the vegetable garden or
market is first aid to the beauty parlor.
There is nothing new about this, however,
to scientific and medical authorities. Good
skin, as well as good health generally, is
largely a matter of what we eat. In a very real sense, the chil
dren, women and men of the United States are as good as
their diet.
Every woman interested in feeding her family will be inter
ested in the results of a series of experiments recently conducted
by a group of nationally known women cooking experts. They
searched for a way to make vegetable foods so tasteful that
practically everybody will enjoy them. Their recommendations
are: (O Use very little water in cooking the vegetables. (') Add
a dash of suRiir to the vegetables while they are cooking.
Bear in mind that this dash of sugar does not make the vege
tables taste sweet. Sugar is nature's supreme seasoning. In this
case it brius out the delicate vegetable flavors, and it also im
proves the vegetable freshness and color. In addition to milk,
cereals, Ituits and meat, eat at least one raw and one cooked
vcgctablo a day. Remember cookies, candies, stewed fruits.
Ik! Mts or ice cream for dessert. A bit of swcot makes the meal
