Animals Are Not Very Well Equipped by Nature to Withstand Sudden Changes of Weather-All-Pur pose House Plan is Given. Next to the feed supply, the great est concern of the careful hog raiser Dt, this time of the year is the housing uestion, says the Farmers' Mail and Breeze. Unlike other animals, his hogship is not very well equipped by nature to withstand sudden changes of weather. Hogs are very suscepti ble to cold. Unsuitable shelter is di rectly responsible for more hog troo bles in winter than many hog men will Sanitary, Comfortable and inexpenslve Hog House. believe. This takes in exposure ova* crowding, damp and filthy quarterS, and the score of diseases that can be traced back to these conditions. The ideal hog house is built on high ground, and preferably on a south or east slope. It is draft-proof but still well ventilated. Sunlight is indispen sable in comfortable, sanitary hog quarters. The broader the patch of sunlight on the floor the better for the pigs. A good all-purpose hog house plan is shown in the drawing. The. eaves on the north and south sides are four feet high. The north roof at the cen ter is ten feet high and the south roof is seven feet. A width of 18 feet allows room for a three-foot alley in the center and pens on each side seven and one-half feet in depth, if these are wanted. The pens are six I Ii |i I IF A Swinging Door. feet wide and the length of the house depends on the number of pens want ed. The windows In the high roof face south and provide sunlight in the north pens. One or two open windows will furnish plenty of ventilation but no direct draughts. It is a good plan to make the in terior partitions of movable panels. If the posts in the framing are set six feet apart they can be made to serve as corners for the - pens. Swinging doors hinged at the top are the most desirable as they are closed at all times. The accompanying sketch shows a good way to make them- The hogs soon learn to push them when passing in or out. Concrete makes the best flooring but is very cold for hogs to sleep on. A good supply of short bedding, or a plank overlay, will overcome this ob jection. At the end of the house handi est to reach with a wagon, the space for one pen may be set aside for feed bins..

EW PRACTCAL FARM HINTS ld That Will Grow Crop of Strong Weeds Will Likewise Produce Crops That Are Profitable. Did you ever realize that the field iat will grow an immense crop of g strong weeds will likewise grow a yod crop of farm produce if the soil rightly taken care of? Weeds use ant food just as much as corn or e nall grain. th The weed is the one crop that r aver ctops growing. It is right on r-1 Le job from spring until fall and it 6 esn't need much cultivation either. ' Potatoes should never be handled ! M Ith iron forks or shovels. If any iols are used they should be made of IIt ood, because the least abrasion of Le skin will often start decay. The home water system is no longer a impossibility. It can be installed k practically any farm home and it )es not represent prohibitive cost. Farm management is the thing that ca 0 It ly it at n< a] tc 11 fli st t tc B -- b a It 10 ti Take up good strong roots of rhu T arb; two-year-old seedlings being g< eat In autumn; leave them out 'until fter exposure to freezing, then crowd em together in boxes with a little all between and under them and set iem wherever wanted, or plant them ut on the cellar bottom. etermines the profit .of the farm, ef ciency is just as important here as an office. A good fence is a necessity for a ood garden. Some people grow gar en vegetables for their live stock, t no wide-awake gardener does it. Sweet potatoes or root crops may e kept in good condition by putting iem in the cellar between layers of and. Let the sand fill all spaces. The celery for winter use should be J earthed up gradually, banking the earth well up against the stalks, early to the top of the leaves. Gardens should be cleared from all _ amains of the season's crops and pre ared for the next year. Rotation of crops in the garden has r ae same arguments favoring it as ro Ltion in farm crops. OW A GARDEN MOLE LIVES ttle Creatures Have Remarkable Appetite, Feeding Entirely on Earthworms, Grubs and Insects. Moles feed entirely on earth worms, urrowing grubs, ardi on insects, and ave a remarkable appetite, together 'ith love, passion and hatred in en rgy and voracity. They'-are built particularly strong, ill of muscle, and have a hand, spade ke, suppied with clavs, making a pital di;;:~ing machine..

The Usual Scarcity of Harvest Hands of the Farm Househok4 In diversified farming it is essenltill that we give due attention to each branch of farming that Is being follow ed, and seek to harmonize them all. We must select only those branches which we find adapted to our farms and which will fit nicely Into our gen eral scheme of farm management and eliminate every possible waste. We can see farmers on all sides of us who are trying to do too many~ things. It Is a very energetic and ambitions man who can with a limit ed amount of capital make a success In more than one line of farming to which he has given his study and best services. Of course he may follow other lines of work but these other lines should be to a certain extent sub servient to his one or two chosen spe clalities. We must make a constant study to see that every particular crop may and does have its own proper time and attention, and Is not neglected to care for some other crop that needs attention at the same time. When a man has a field of beautiful and thrifty corn, he knows that the soil needs stirring after a rain, and If he allows It to get hard and lumpy, the crop will be damaged. If he has a few acres of small fruit that ripens at the same time the corn field needs cultivation, there Is sure to be trouble, for he can do but one thing at a time. Small fruit growing and mixed farming do not go well together, but orcharding and gen eral farming will make a good com bination. The grain Is in the bins and the corn is in the shock or silo by the time the fruit Is ready to har vest and market. Dairying and stock growing form an excellent combination, and one that will improve the fertility of the farm. Dairy farming and the growing of po tatoes or market crops make another good combination. The potatoes may be grown In the same rotation of crops that Is practiced 1n-growing feed for P P Prickly A fedts are usualb P P g fes vry quickb A positive specific for Bloi Drives out Rhemautisu and is a wonderful tonic and body F.

EISIFIED FARMING._ This Year Has Called 0at the Women to Hep la the Fede, cattle. The work may be dqze with1 the same help required to care .for~ the potato We take thd ordinary orop of corn and wheat asaesample. The west en farmer who grows a large acreage of corn and wheot finds that he must plant his corn early and push Its cnlti vaton to have It wenl out of the way: by the time wheat Is ready to. arvest. - ateplatted cora arid wheat both need attention at the same time, and one or the -other must suffer. Un der any cmabpatlon -the general farm er shouldgrcw as nearly as possible a.al==ce ration for the animals he Is feeding, and such fraits and vege tables as are needed to supply hiaj own table. . A second consideration in diversi led farming should be to grow a ra tional rotation of crops, a rotation adapted to the needs of the live stock and one that wml not dminish the fer-4 t~ilty of the soil for future crops. Corn, wheat and clover constitute an excellent rotation of crops, and this may be lengthened a year to admit a cash or market crop. Arzther matter to consider is that of the equipment or outfit that Is nec esary to handle the various crops to the most profitable advantage. As the best equipment necessary to properly conduct aline of farming i large and must Increase as the' busi ness expands. As a general rule I do not believe In 3 buying too much farm machinery. We need to keep up to date but unless a man Is careful he will soon have a small for chpery. The same rule applies with equal force to buildings, for in all lines of special farming as well as instc fazning, buildings are a necessity. As a rule 1 believe that we will find larger .profits in growing crops that may be bandied with as little expense for tools and equipment as Is conist. ent with economy.I i, Poke Root and Potassium) I Powerful Pennanentt Stubbomn cases Good results are yield to P.
