We desire to call attention to one of the common weaknesses found in all breeds of hogs. We refer to the mat ter pf poor feet. Some of the most in excusable mistakes that we have ever witnessed in a show ring have been made by Judges who placed little em phasis on the importance" of a hog walking squarely on his feet, says Iowa Homestead. When a hog walks down on his dew claws the trouble is generally due to one of two causes or possibly both. A long pastern is a faulty formation, and a hog with this weakness will general ly go down under heavy feeding in deed, he need not be heavy and fat to reveal the weakness to one who knows how and where to look for it. A sharp Judge ought to be able to detect it in a class under six months just as quickly as in an aged class where the animals are showing very heavy weights. The second cause of hogs going down, to which we referred, is a weakness ei ther in the tendons or in the bones. It is sometimes possible to find a fair ly cood formation in the length and shape of the pastern, and nevertheless the hog goes down. In such a case the weakness must be due to failure of the muscles to hold the foot properly In shape, and In such a case the physi ological weakness is In the muscles and not In the bone. "No Foot, No Hog." We find on turning to the scale of points of the various breeds that from five to ten counts are given for good feet and legs. While hi making up a scale this Is possibly all that could be allowed, it is strictly true, ns is often Bald of horses, "no foot, no ho; There is no 'weakness that seems to propagate so easily as the long pastern or the weak' tendons around the foot. It Is Important in the gilt and in the old sow, but it is doubly Important in the case of the male. The Idea of us ing on a herd of twenty or twenty-five sows a male with weak feet Is tho very acme of shortsightedness. Think of having on the farm 100 or 130 weak footed hogs, and yet this is just what Is likely to occur If a poor footed male is used. Iowa Homestead. NEWS AND VIEWS.

Thompson, tails City. A Life Work For a Man. Breeding good dairy animals Is not yet an exact science. It is an evolu tionary work, in which the painstak ing, patient, intelligent breeder is co operating with nature for the produc tion of the improved animals. And nature will not bo hurried, so the work of a breeder Is not the work of a few tentative mating of animals, show ing wonderful results in a few years. It is more nearly a life work for a man and one man's life so often so lamen tably short for the length of the work. The Merino sheep industry in Ver mont is again entering an era of pros nerity that presages a boom, according to an exchange. While by no mean, approaching the palmy days o thirty years ago, the industry is reviving, and each year for a decade past has shown an Increase in shipments of fancj strains of Merino breeding sheep to Africa and Australia. Within ten years past the bulk of the shipments have been to the Transvaal, in South Africa i-rd the leading Boer farmers are today breeding Addison county sheep almost exclusively. Nebraska's Stretchy Hog. We compliment the swine breeders of Nebraska on the wisdom they are showing in their breeding operations. They have not been carried away by pedigree fads, and today they are pro ducing what one might call a profitable farmer's hog. It is our honest convic tion that no state in the corn belt shows so many useful hogs as are seen at the Nebraska state fair. They coin- bine scale with a large degree of qual ity. We concede that as you go east there will be found rather more quali ty, but the reduction in scale, in our opinion, more than offsets this superior quality. Men who are breeding hogs and feeding them out for the meat market are calling for stretchy hogs, and the fine stock breeders of Nebras ka are just wise enough to satisfy this demand. No doubt the remarkable scale that is found in Nebraska hogs Is to some extent the result of the free use of that splendid flesh forming food, alfalfa. It makes bone and builds the frame, says Iowa Homestead. Intensive Farming. Dr. E. C. Switzer, a veterinary sur geon of Springfield, Mass.. has a four teen acre farm within the city limits on which he keeps thirty horses and cattle blooded Guernseys and Ayr shires. It Is needless to say that he makes the land pioduce three times as much as ordinary farm land, using tba latest machinery and quickest meth ods. In fact, ten acres support the thirty head. Rye, sorghum, millet, sugar cane and corn are raised, three crops in a season. On a three acre plat of rye thirty tons were cut. The six acres of corn this year is estimated to yield 200 tons. As much as possible goes into silo; the rest is stacked. A side industry is the preparation of fer tilizer and "0110 lawn dressing, which brings high prices. Country Geitle-mau. iL BEEF CATTLE.

Editor O Ilunnleutt in Southern Cultivator. Big Dividends on Blood. The demand for feeding steers is go lug to keep well bred thin cattle at a pretty fair price this year.

In starting a herd one thing should not be forgotten.
