Mr. D. A. Drake,
Hitchcock, Okla.,
Dear Sir:
Please find enclosed money
order for one dollar for w’hich
send me the Clarion for another
year.
We have had a very bad winter
out here, lots of snow and some
rain. There hasn’t been any
farming done yet to speak of.
The ground is so wet I haven’t
plowed any yet and there has
been so m uch water on my place
that it drowned all- the frogs.
Busi- j My wheat looks good. I have in
154 acres and will sow 25 acres
of oats. Every body is well and
I don’t know of any sickness
around here. This is the nearest
heaven I have seen yet.
Yours truly,
___

Good pasture is invaluable in
growing pigs successfully.
Milk is the hog’s natural food.
Give him all of ityou can scare up

Consumers are demanding
pork with more lean meat. The
feeder and breeder should cater
to these requirements.
The feeder should try to keep
the pig steadily increasing in
weight from one-half to one.
pound each day on an average. -
Cleanliness is next to godlines
—and ahead of it with the milk
inspector.
A cow appreciates punctuality
in milking, as much as a man
does in meals.
Be sure there are no lice on the
young stock when they are turn-
ed to pasture.
Tnere is money in dalring in
spite of a prevalent notion to the
contarar.v, but it needs a com-
bination of good cows and good
management to get it out..
‘‘No foot no horse.” It won’t
take long for an ignorant skoer
to ruin the best foot.
Look out for the yearling colts.
Db not )et them get a setback as
spring approaches.
A stumbling habit may be
ciused by poor shoeing; or it
may be caused bv ignorant or
careless hitching.
A colt appreciates the cemptn-
tonship of man, and he should
have it especially during tbe first
year of his life.
You get a vinegar that is differ-
ent, one that has strength and
flavor, when you buy The Alton
Goods pure cider vinegar.
