Pasture for Hogs
It always pays to have a good pas
ture for pigs and particularly In a
season like the past year when all
grain feed Is bringing two prices.
Of all the grasses, etc, that we raise,
clover Is the best pasture for hogs,
unless It be alfalfa, and but few
have It. Of the clovers, June and
Mammoth, mixed, make an excellent
combination. If a little Dwarf Essex
rape seed Is sown It will add variety.
To those who have no clover pas
ture' coming on, let them consider the
advisability of sowing something
like grain and rape mixed. I prefer
barley to other grain. Turn on while
the barley and rape are small and
the pigs will keep It down short
enough so It will be tender. It will
get tough If allowed to get too large,
Don't fence off simply a hog yard and
then expect to have good pasture.
Give them a good generous pas
ture and then If it gets too big run
a mower over a part of it and let
It come up tender again. Rape must
be kept down to have the pigs relish
It. ' I have often seen a farmer fence
In an acre or two and sow to pas
ture for about a hundred hogs and
then wonder why they didn't have
pasture.
Plenty of range also has a ten
dency to stop them from rooting and
they will also keep much healthier.
A pig enjoys nice fresh grass as much
as any other farm animal and why
should they not have It when It is
the cheapest and healthiest hog feed
on earth? Forest Henry, in Pacific
Homestead.
Clearing Logged-off Lands.
The timber lands in western Ore
gon and Northern California are not
nearly so accessible as those of west
ern Washington. Neither is there
nearly so much logged off land, nor
Is this land so well adapted for agri
cultural purposes as that in Washing
ton. While the demand for farm land
In Oregon and California is well sup
plied by prairie and easily cleared
brush land, the necessity for reclaim
ing the logged-off land in these states
Is not pressing. On the other hand,
western Washington has but few val
leys that were not heavily timbered
at one time, and the demand for agri
cultural products far exceeds the local
supply. Consequently, the demand
for farm land and the idle-was ts of
cut-over land has brought the question
of clearing this land squarely before
the people. The character of the clear.
lng ranges from the heavily timbered
spruce and cedar lowlands through
the benches and side hills" covered
with fir stumps and a dense growth
of underbrush to the more Bparsely
covered hemlock ridges.
The spruce stump is thought to be
the most expensive to remove, owing
to the fact that it Is found only on the
deepest soil, where it roots deeply,
it often requiring a box (50 pounds)
of stumping powder to loosen a sin
gle stump five feet in diameter.
The fir stump Is the predominating
stump of all logged-off lands in Wash
ington and Oregon, and Is removed
by various methods described below.
The cedar grows to some extent
wherever the fir Is found and pre
dominates on low ground.
AH of the above trees have lateral
root systems and do not root deeply
except In loose or sandy soil, where
the roots penetrate to a depth of sev
eral feet. On flooded or swampy land
the roots are often partly above the
surface.
In the logged-off lands of the red
wood district of northern California
there has been little effort made to
clear land for agricultural purposes,
since the prairie land is plentiful and
the logged-off land is rough and hilly.
Some attempts have been made to
clear the land of every thing but
stumps and then to seed to orchard
grass for cattle range. This work of
clearing has been done for $10 per
acre. This method of making range
has proved a failure in most cases,
as the great quanity of brush and
the sucker growth of the redwood
stumps have almost entirely covered
the ground in two or three years.
It is estimated that the logged-off
land of northern California can be
reclaimed at about the same expense
as the fir stump land of Oregon and
Washington.
Most of the clearing that has been
done in Oregon was done by cheap
labor until recent years. The donkey-engine
method has been used in
some sections of the state recently.
- Ground has been broken at the
Alaska-Yukon-Paciflc Exposition at
Seattle for the great athletic stradium
to seat more than 5,000 people.
Pretty and Practicable Tea Tray.
Take a piece of satin of any shade
harmonieus with the color scheme of
the table or room; place a small lace
dolly in the center, and frame this
In an oval gilt frame. (These frames
can be found in any of the depart
ment stores, sometimes with inex
pensive pictures in them, for twenty
five cents.) A piece of white linen
with either the dolly or an embroid
ered initial In the center framed In
a white-enameled frame also makes
a handsome tray. The glass is easily
wiped off and the linen remains as
spotless as before it ' was used. A
piece of felt may be glued on the
bottom of the tray, to prevent any
scratching or marring the table In
any way. Woman's Home Companion

CORNER
Keep Breeding Dates.
In breeding sows, and more espec
ially those that are apt to farrow
early litters, a careful record should
always be kept of the breeding dates
so that the sow may receive proper
attention for a few days preceding
her farrowing time. Many a valu
able litter has been lost that might
have been saved had the owner been
aware bf the exact date of farrow
ing. No matter how great the num
ber of sows that are being bred it
Is a very small matter to keep a little
note book with the dates of service.
This is valuable not only to ascer
tain the date of farrowing, but can
also be used to ascertain if .the sows
are with pig. A sow in normal condi
tion will come in heat about every
twenty one days and If she has passed
two of these periods after service
there ii seldom any question about
her bolng In pig. This is of particular
value to breeders who are shipping
cut bred sows. A little attention paid
to this matter will often save dis
putes with customers. Ordinarily a
sow carries her pigs 112 days and
probably farrows nearer this date than
my other animal. Occasional varia
tions have been noted but these are
not numerous. A young sow will
some times farrow ITjO days after
service and occasionally an old sow
will carry her litter as long as 120
days, but but outside of these rare
Instances the average sow will far
row at from 112 to 114 days after
service with almost absolute cer
tainty. Don't run the risk of losing
a valuable litter of pigs because you
failed to mark down the date of ser
vice. Losses of this kind are some
time called bad luck, but here again
Is a case where bad luck should be
termed as criminal carelessness.

Stafford.
(Too late for last issue.)
Stafford never lacks for things real
ly essential to Its welfare, hence the
timely rain came as an expected
blessing.
The sick ones are mostly Improving.
Mrs. Esther Toedemeyer's baby is
recovering from the measles, and it
is though Amos Mays' is now taking
the disease.
It Is proposed we meet at the ceme
tery on Saturday, the 29th, at 10 A.
M., and bring our dinner, work till
4 o'clock in the grave yards, and try
to work over the whole ground in
stead of plots here and there where
each Is individually interested, as
there are many graves whose occu
pants have no friends even to cut te
fern from the headstones. Therefore
it is hoped that scythes, rakes, shovels
and axes, etc., will be brought in
plenty ro all can work with a will,
then placing our flowers upon the
graves, return to our homes feeling
we have tried to beautify the silent
city for the coming day.
John Wilkins was the next one to

can be quarried in large blocks and
sawed Into bricks or other products.
The company . has subjected the
brick to the most rigid laboratory
tests with satisfactory results The
Baldwin Locomotive Works has
been working with the product and

MRS. Ft. A. BALLINGER.
Mrs. Richard A. Balllnger, wife of

COLORADO'S ELECTRICAL HOTEL
One of, the magnificent new hos-
telries at Estes Park, Colorado, 50
miles northwest of Denver, is to be
operated by electricity. The entire
building, large enough to house more
than 300 people, will be entirely equip
ped with electric conveniences and
the model kitchen will contain a com
plete electrical range Jarge enough
to cook all the foods necessary even
if the hotel Is crowded.
Mr. F. O. Stanley, the proprietor of
this Twentieth Century hotel, acquired
a water power four miles away about
the time he was planning to erect
the new hostelry. At once he saw
the difficulties of transporting fuel in
to the park, so he consulted an elec
trical engineer from the General Elec-J
trie Company as to the feasibility of
tapping the water power for electric
ity enough to supply electric lights
for his new hotel and and also to do
the cooking. Being assured by the
englner that the plan was not only
feasible but more economical than
coal Itself, Mr. Stanley Immediately
planned to bring the electric cur
rent to Estes Park.
This summer, when the new hotel
opens, it will shine brilliantly o'
nights with hundreds of electric lights.
The streets and cottages of the little
summer village will also be-illuminated
with electricity.
In the kitchen the steaks, chops,
etc., will be broiled on a large grid
heated by the mysterious current. The
pastry and roasts will be baked in an
electric oven; the coffee will be pre
pared "in a large percolator and the
vegetables, soups, cereals, etc., will
be cooked in large kettles and stew
pans heated by electricity.
That this plan Is wholly within the
bounds of reason and that there Is
no reason why the hotel Bhould not
succeed In its new enterprise Is evi
denced by the fact that at the Sche
nectady plant of the General Electral
works, where sixteen thousand men
and women are employed, the cook
ing In both the large restaurants is
all done by electricity. It will be
no trouble for the chef and his as
sistants at Mr. Stanley's hotel to cook
the meals for the guests and to cook
them Just right and even quicker than
by any other method.
Electric heat has the - advantage
over coal in that the heat, in any
quantity desired, Is at the Instant com
mand of the chef. There Is no wait
ing for slow fires or poor cooking re
sulting from Insufficient heat.
The new hotel will be thoroughly
equipped with small motor devices to
chop and grind the foods, sharpen
knives, turn the Ice cream freezers
and do other chores about the build
ing. The electrically equipped laundry
will be another wonder about the
place.
'My child was burned terribly about
the face, chest and neck. I applied
Dr. Thomas' Electric oil. The pain
ceased and the child sank Into a rest
