Mi A Ilnril I'rtiiioaltlun. A young man visited his doctor and described a common Illness that had befallen him. "The thing for you to do," the phy sician said, "la to drink hot water an hour before breakfast every morning." "Well, how are you feeling?" the doctor asked a week later. "Did you follow my advice and drink hot water an hour before breakfast?" "I did my best, sir, but I couldn't keep It up more'n ten minutes at a stretch." Tit-Bits.

The hog U an omniverous animal, and need3 "roughage" and green feed for his best health and growth. A cer tain amount of grain feed 1s needed to grow hog; with the greatest profit, and still more Is necessary to fatten and fit them for market. When young animals have an abundance of range with a good supply of nitrogenous foods, like alfalfa, clover, vetche3 and cow iea3, corn makes a valuable addi tion to' the ration, but should not be given In excess, and will usually be found more profitable If mixed with shorts, bran or other feed combining a large proportion of protein. For young pigs bran Is not so good as shorts and ground cow peas may be used in the place of the latter when the price exceeds ?20 per ton. Feeding for the 'finish should not begin more than ten or twelve weeks before the hogs are to be sold. For the last six or eight weeks corn 13 un doubtedly the best grain, as the feed consumed during this time greatly In fluences the quality of the meat. Hogs take on flesh rapidly during the first weeks of heavy feeding, but longer feeding means slower gains. Quick work pays in fattening as well as in growing hogs, and when the animals are on good feed and fail to make a gain of at least one pound dally they should be sold or butchered. Market your hogs at 6 or 8 months of age, at which time they should weigh 200 to 250 pounds. A greater per cent of profit Is secured than If you keep them until 10 or 12 months old, because you avoid 60 to 120 days of dally animal waste. However, a hog which Is made to weigh 300 pounds at 1 year Is quite profitable. Grain Smuts. A dangerous parasite of many of tha cereal plants la the fungus that pro duces In the grain or head what Is known as smut. There are several well known kinds of smut, each of which is caused by a distinct specie3 of the fungus. The greatest loss from smuts in this country Is from th stinking smut of wheat and the loose 6mut of oat3. A considerable loss Is also due to the loose smuts of barley and wheat, which are .more difficult to control and prevent. They are widely distributed, and though they occur usually In small quantities the damage In the aggregate Is large. They often are entirely un noticed on account of their earllnesa and the absence of any conspicuous sign of them at harvest time. The stinking smut of wheat trans forms only the kernels Into smut balls which do not break until the wheat Is threshed and often remain intact in the threshed grain. The loose smuts of barley, on the other hand, early dis charge their spores, which are blown off sy the wind as soon as the smutted head comes out of the leaf sheath; they Infect the plant In the flowering stage and enter the embryo Inside the ovary before the latter rlnens into seed. An Infected seed developes a smutted plant the following year. The most successful method thus far found for preventing these smuts is a hot-water treatment of the seed. This treatment Is described In Bureau of Plant Industry bulletin 152, entitled "The Loose Smuts of Barley and Wheat," recently issued by the United States Department of Agriculture. The bulletin is a report of recent re searches into the life histories of these smuts and the determination of meth ods for their prevention. T rVHIST HE WEEKLY ORIAIN Why He Cot III.

Heal Type of JUlch Cowi, A cow with her second or third calf is the most desirable of all, and this Is undoubtedly the most profitable age to buy them. As milkers aud breed ers, they have all their best days in trout of them, and with sufficient time to pay handsomely. Young and old cows are very uibliuci m uppe.wuucB. The former have an unmistakable ap pearance of fullness of flesh and coat, while the old ones are more or less shrunk. The teeth give an indication cf age, and the horns are often looked to as a guide, the young having smooth horns, while those of the aged are wrinkled. If cross-breeds are bought, get them with the greatest tendency toward the best breed the cross has been secured from. Cows with a male or bull type of head are rarely good milkers. The head should be refined, neck thin, forequarters wide, square and robust, with deep, broad thighs. Dangrer of Barbed Wire. Barbed wire is all right, for stock cattle and makes a cheap fence, but it is hard to construct such a fence to turn hogs, and, owing to its danger ous characteristics, It is out of the question for horses, and even for milch cows. With the woven wire fence the post expense is not so great as that of the other kinds, as they need not be so heavy, and may be set a good distance apart. Heavy end posts are an abso lute 'necessity, and they should be set in the ground not less than 3 to 4 feet deep. If the line posts are 20 to 25 feet apart it is a very good idea to have every fourth post of good size, longer than the others, to allow extra setting. In setting end posts dig a big hole, put the post in, and begin to tamp and ram fram the very bottom, not filling it too fast, so as to get the earth about the post packed from the bottom to the top. The "dead man" plan of bracing a post is perhaps bet ter than any other. The "dead man" is a short post or heavy stone burled about 3 feet deep, 4 feet from the end posts, and with a cable made of plain galvanized wrire to the post top and around the dead man the post can be held for years as firmly as when set. Be sure to use galvanized wire, as black wire will not last more than six or seven years. A 30-inch high woven wire fence, two smooth No. 10 and one barbed wire at the very top, makes a good fence for any kind of stock, and can be put up for less than 40 cents per rod, exclusive of posts.

Systematic tests made, by the West Virginia Experiment Station prove that skim milk is a valuable food for laying hens. The first test covered 122 days. The twenty-two hens fed the skim milk laid 1,244 eggs, as compared with 996 laid by twenty-two hens fed a mesh wet with water. In another test sixty hens fed skim .milk laid 862 eggs in thirty-seven days, as compared with 632 eggs laid by a smillar lot fed no milk. Other tests gave about the came comparative results. The conductors of these experiments estimate under prevailing conditions, with eggs selling at 20 to 25 cents a dozen, that the skim milk had a feed ing value of k to 2 cents a quart They'll Want the Wood. The forest famine la not to be Invne dlate. said Mr. Pinchot at Denver. "We have forests In plenty for the present generation, and perhaps for the next, but In the years to come there will be famine a-plenty If we don't at this time Uke the stitch In time." DeatroyfiiHT Quack Grass. I often see directions given for kill ing out quack grass, but I think they are all inferior to the method that I employ. I would never try to drag out the roots with harrow or rake, be cause not all of the roots will be gath ered and those left will soon fill the soil again. The pest can most easily be killed right where It is, the roots furnishing an abundance of plant food, by using a double action cut-away har row. Xow, please don't think that any kind of a harrow will do, because it will not. If you rely on any except the one I have mentioned you will be disappointed. I have used cr.e to destroy quack grass matiy times, and am sure of what I am writing. If you plow before using the harrow, run the plow shallow just deep enough to turn over the quack roots, bottom side up; let lay thus for a week and then go over the field with the double ac tion cutaway harrow; then after a few days repeat the harrowing and keep at it, going over the field at in tervals of a few days until the pest is all destroyed. It is no use to think that If the field be gone over, perhv.ps a dozen times in one day, the quack will be killed, for the sun, as well as the harrow, must get in its work. The way to do is to go over the field once, then wait a few days for the roots to dry and repeat the operation. By being thorough In this the grass can be destroyed and a crop grown the same year if commenced early in the spring. F. II. Dow in Agricultural Epitocnist. Protecting Uirda. With very few exceptions, birds art, most valuable live stock on the farm. Even the so-called grain-eating birds earn their right to a home and pro tection by reason of the vast quanti ties of weed seeds they devour and the number of insects they destroy. Quails and meadow larks eat more in 6ects than vegetable food and a very large percentage of the latter is com posed of weed seeds. A single far.mer cannot protect the birds on his place against all kinds of destructive ver min. Including the town hunter, but he can combine with his neighbors, post every farm and secure his rights by helping to secure the rights of his brother farmers. .Xow Is a good time to begin.
