THE CUHL IN
THE PIG'S TAIL
An old ii ixi 1 1 while looking ovrr tuy
herd of llerkshlro swltin not long Ufco
remarked to me: "There nrn soino Iiok
which I prefer to tin Iterkshlrcs, but
tfiero Is one fenttirn uliout your Iterk

you nlwnys have the curl lu their toil.
Ami, after nil, them In not so much la

lug nnd care that show thrift by tho
curl In the lull.
"On one occasion a fc yrnrs figo I
wanted to buy noiiio plx. nnd the mini
who was then farniliti; one of your
plneeM nuked me to come mid sen some
ho bad for sale. When I cmue to look
nt tin pig the mmi npolovtlr.ed for
their bad condition by telling me they
were bewitched nnd that be hail Imh-;i
thinking nhout going to commit n witch
doctor uliout them. The pigs were
mangy, Ihlll mid Imre nil the ear
murks of mitlnift. Their tails bung
down Alrnlkht nnd sorrowful looking.
Of course I knew there win no use In
arguing with n mini who believed In
witches nml things of that kind, but I
could fully nuree with him that there
was something the matter with bis
pigs nnd nilvlsed bltn to widen their
ration of nubbins nml dishwater, to

lilm I bud never fed anything so effec

iK'llevcd the trouble with Us pigs was
that their talis had lout their curl."
I feed my swine ooiiKlilcrnbl' corn,
probably more thnn the professors
would npprovM of ns scientific feeding.
To my mind Hint feeding Is most se
cntlnc that pnsluees the licst results
from n minimum cost, that keeps up
the curl In the tall nnd shows a good
profit. A careful, wnbhfiil feeder enn
use a great deal of corn lu bis swine

ing nn undesirable amount of fat.
Corn does not nil run to fat It con
tributes to the making of (leon ment.
blood, bone nml the repair of tissue. It
Is not nil clear carbohydrate. It bns
protein also, and one of Its grentest
recommendations Is that no feed Hint
we can use cnrrles Its nutrients In a
form so digestible ns those In corn, nnd
no feed Is more palatable.- W. F. Me

Naturally comparison was drawn be
tween tho vaulting prosperity of the live
mutton trade, the sutlsfuctory condi
tion of the hoc market nnd the rough
road the cattleman was required to
travel. Plckluic up the bill of fare,
one man said: "This price list Is a par
tliil explanation of the discrimination
against beef. A deceut stenk costs a
dollar, but mutton chops aro carded at
40 cents nnd pork chops a nickel less.
Tho nverago diner Is actuated by mo
tives of economy and orders the cheap
er article. The chop, pork or mutton,
Is enjoying a distinct advantage over
the Hteak, for tho reason that It costs
tlio cater less. And the fa-ther east'
you go tbo more pronouueed you will
find this disposition to eat chops. Bos
ton nud New York are the greatest
mutton consuming centers In the
world. We must furnish the consumer
with smaller but better finished beef.

tho demand in steaks was for a thick
cut, but a light stenk. In other words,

Calves brought up on skliu milk are

their body, nud their cout Is not quite ;

with their dams. However, the calves'
bavo learned how to eat nnd digest 1

Scoura and Thump.

"I)I1 rou over consider tvtmt 0 handl
tup It Is to a state to tiare poor roads?"
That qnesitlon wan naked by a promt-
hnt motorist tlie otticr tiny, the
New York American tiiid Journal, lie
bad boeti touring all anmnicr through
Niw fnIaiid and lind had a rim nee to
frt an Idea of wIkto tlio best roads for
motoring were located. Ill" remark"
on the aubject are worth aerloua exon
eration not alone by automoblll.ita, but
by legislators as well.
"In Masaehusetts tliere Is a system
of roads that Is not surpassed In Amer
ica," be said, "and that state gets tbe
benefit from the fine highways In mort
ways than one. It Is a paying Invest
ment. Any person who has ever travel-
ed through the state in a motor car
finds the riding so comfortable that be
wlnhes to repeat the trip.
"Not only that, but he prolongs. bis
stay In the state to take advantage of
the fine driving. Ordinarily accom
panied by two or three others, this
means an, expenditure for living ex
penses that brings money Into place
In the state where before there waa no
such revenue.
. "No one city has a monopoly on this,
for many of the smaller towns bave .
bad strangers within their portals who
never wouUJ bave been seen there but
for the roads that led them whither
they did not care. When they have lost
the way In going from one city to an
other Instead of displeasure at making
a mistake the delightful places that
presented themselves here and there,
coupled with the well kept roads, add
ed a zest to tbe trip.
"We bear a lot about the beauties of
this region or that one and plan to -

make a trip to see what tbe places are
like. We see them, to be sure, but the
discomforts experienced In making tbe
Journey often take away much of the
pleasure that otherwise might have
been enjoyed, .
"If Js'ewhampsblre, for Instance, had
a system of roads anywhere near llko
that of Massachusetts what a paradise
it would be for the motorists! Some
day the situation may be realized by
the people of that state and something
done to help the matter, but It looks
as If it were a long way oT.
"For example, there are roads hi the
northern part of the state where the
scenery Is simply ' magnificent that
could be put In fair Ehape for a few
dollars. I know of places' where the
expenditure of a couple of dollars a
day by a town to fill up holes and level
roads would In a week or two make
the highways 50 per cent better.
"At present they are abominable In
some places. When you find you have
to run a car at six or seven miles and
at times slow down to the point that
Just divides between actually stopping
and barely moving because of gullies
and holes, when the road is perfectly
level, too, for some miles, then some
Idea of the discomforts of motoring
thereabouts may be gleaned."
The writer within a few weeks trav
eled over a number of such roads and
found tbe conditions were not at all ex
aggerated. It did seem like practiced
negligence to allow the highways to re
main in that shape. It is not to be ex
pected that every town should set
about making the roads within Its
boundaries as bard nnd smooth as a
racing track, yet no valid reason ex
ists for letting them grow worse each
week, for in the end, when repairs are
Imperative, the cost is all thetgreater.
And what is true of one state is appli
cable to others, Massachusetts except
ed. Convict Labor oa Waahlmarton Roads.
The state of Washington is planning
to use convict labor In highway con
struction during the ensuing season,
and the proposition Is in the form of
an agreement by which the state la to
lupply the convicts, together with the
necessary guards, and pay for their
transportation to and from the peni
tentiary. The county sustains the cost
of their board, housing and medical
care and the expense of transportation
from point to point within the county
ind to supply superintendent, tools and
material, savs the Good Roads Maga-
rine. The connty is also to keep an ac
count of all materlul produced or han
flled by the convicts, and this cost Is to
be the basis of settlement with the
itate.
Making- the Hoad Attractive.
In the construction of n road the
work of beautifylug tho sides of the
highway should not be neglected, aays
the Pittsburg Press. Flowers, shrub
bery and trees should each bav a
place along the roadside. They refresh
tho eye and cultivate a love for the
beautiful In nature, making a trip over
the road a pleasure to be remembered.
The appearance of the roadside Is gen
erally a pretty good index to the char
acter of tho owner of the premise. X
clean, well kept roadside Is an adver
tisement for tho owner and adds value
to the land. '
