OR AT LEAST NOT WORKING
Smith’s Machine Had the Horse Pow-
er All Right but He Thought
8ome Were Dead
They were talking automobile
reminiscences and Congressman Jacob
Johnson ot Utah recalled the expert
ence of Smith along a country road
The inexplicable thing bad happened
some ten miles from a garage and
Smith was mauling over the machine
with a monkey wrench when a farm-
er came along
For a while Hiram stood In silence
watching the efforts of the autolst
and then human nature asserted
self and he broke Into conversation
"Some car ye’re got there pard’
he remarked admiringly “What pow-
er la itr
"Forty bores - power" answered
Smith continuing to plug away with
the monkey wrench
"Forty hoss eh?" returned Hiram
atlll working hla eyes "What seems
ter be the trouble with It?"
'"Well as near as 1 can figure It
out" answered Smith with s sort of
cross between a ' sigh and a cuss
"about 39 of tbs horses ars dead"
Matter of Environment
The Mexican student was washing
hla first northern football game It
held bis interest firmly Hla face grew
flashed bis arms were dung out be
shouted hoarsely:
"Do you call thees a game?" he
asked of the man at his light
"Sure" was the reply "What would
you call It?"
' "In my country” said the stranger
from across the border "we would
call it a seven-day pitched battle!"
The trouble with the average man It
that he wants his club to be bome-llke
and bis borne to be club-like
NO GUSHER
But Telia Facts About Postum
- A WIs lady found an easy and safe
way out of the Ills caused by coffee
She says:
"We quit coffee and have used Pos-
tum for the past eight years and
drink It nearly every meal We never
tire of It
"For several years previous to quit-
ting coffee I could scarcely eat any-
thing on account of dyspepsia bloat-
ing after meals palpitation alck head-
ache — In fact was In such misery and
distress I tried living on hot water
and toast
"Hearing of Poetum I began drink-
ing It and found it delicious My ail-
ments disappeared and now I can eat
aaytblng 1 want without trouble
"My parents and husband bad about
tbs same experience Mother would
often suffer after eating while yet
drinking coffee My husband was a
great coffee drinker and suffered from
indigestion and headache
"After be stopped coffee and began
post am both aliments left him He
will not drink anything else now and
ws have It three times a day 1 could
write more but am no gusher — only
state plain facta"
Name given by Postum Co Battle

A Portable A-8haped Hog House With
The accompany cut showing a port-
able A-shaped bog bouse with chain
and singletree for hauling can be
built very easily and cheaply states
farmers' bulletin 666 It is construct-
ed of 1 by 13 inch plank with cracks
covered with batten It Is open In
front and should be placed facing the
south The floor is 8 feet wide and 6
feet from front to back and Is 'nailed
to three runners or -skids: The skids
may be made of lumber or polea about
6 Inches In diameter and flattened on
one side to which the floor Is nailed
A large hole can be bored through the
front end of the outer skids so that a
chain can he fastened to them to fa-
cilitate moving the house by the use
of a team A piece of 2 by 4 Inch
material la nailed on the outer edges
of the top of floor to prevent the
bouse from spreading at the bottom
Each aide of the house is made of
six pieces of 1 by 12 Inch plank 8 feet
long nailed to a piece of 2 by 4 lying
flat about 9 inches from the top of the
plank another about 3H feet from
the top and a piece of 2 by 8 nailed
edgewise about 11 Inches from the
bottom This should be braced at each
end of the underside by a right-angle
block of 2 by 8 Inch material nailed to
the rail and to the side of the house
The long piece of 2 by 8 will act as a
guard under which the young pigs
may take shelter when the sow Uss
down This will save many pigs tr on
being crushed to death
The back of tbe bouse Ota between
the two sides In a groove made by
nailing two pieces of 1 bjrJH-lnch ma-
terial lengthwise on the Inner side of
each side of the house Tbe house Ip
then "set up" on the floor and the
sides held together by nailing a short
piece of 1 hy S-lnch plank serosa the
front and back of the honse about
one and one-half feet below the top
This will prevent it from being blown
down by the wind or a storm A sad-
dle board made by nailing two p I-tees
of 1 hy S-lnch plank together can then
be pnt over the ridge of the bouse to
keep out rain
A bouse built thus can be moved on
the skids or can be taken down by re-
moving the I hy 6-lnch brace from the
front and the back of the house If
tbe bouse Is located In an open Held
where there Is danger of heavy winds
a guy wire should be secureiy fast-
ened to a stake driven deep toto the
ground This la a precaution which
will Justify the trouble required as It
may save a Utter of pigs from being
crushed In esse of a storm 8uch a
bouse can be constructed without the
take-down" feature and hy securely
nailing It will not need the guy wire
Some dirt may be thrown up at the
front of the bouse to the level of the
floor so that young pigs may enter
without trouble The material neces-
sary Jo build this house is as follows:
Thirteen pieces 1 hy 12-Inch by 15
feet for sides hack and floor of bouse
Nina pieces 16-feet batten
Three pieces 2 hy 4-inch by It feet
for framework
Two pieces 2 by S-lnch by 12 feet for
pig rail or guard
CUT OUT THE SHORT CHECK
Cruel and Senseless Practice In Driv-
ing Honse— Would Yield Greater
Returns With Care
Ths man or woman wlao drives a
horse with a short check rein drawing
his face up and expose bis eye to the
glare of tbe sun end the beating of
the rain Is guilty of a cruel and sense
less practice
It Is too bad for horaea to work on
the farm or to milk wagons through
tbe week and on Sundaye have their
heads drawn up to au unnatural posi-
tion and driven miles with their necks
hurting them
I believe they should yield larger
returns to their owners and also I be
Have God would bo well pleased with
kindness to all hla creatures
Cottonseed Meal for Hogs
The prevalent oplqjon that cotton-
seed meal la Injurious to pigs seems to
be borne out by tbe experiment station
of Oklahoma as Is shown In bulletin 61
T'lfls station concludes that cottonseed
Chains and Singletree for Haufing
One piece 1 by (-Inch by 26 feet for
saddle hoard
Three polea for skids
Nalls
Total 272 board feed of lumber 144
linear feet of batten three polea and
the nails Ae ' rough lumber suitable
for the construction ot such a bouse
can usually be secured for about fl2
per 1000 In the south tbe material
will cost about five dollars This type
of house Is suitable for practically all
parts of ths south as no extremely
cold weather is experienced and the
open front permits sunshine to enter
the house for several hours each day
Ia case a boy cannot obtain material
to build auch a bouse as has Just been
described he should get whatever ma-
terial Is available on the farm and
build a shelter for his hog It can
be made out of waste plank for any
shelter that will protect the hogs
from cold winds and rain and give
them a dry bed at the same time per-
mitting the aun to ahlne in during a
portion of the day will be quite an Im-
provement over conditions existing on
so many farms at present
A shelter to be need during the sum-
mer months may he- made by setting
four polea or posts Into the ground and
securely nailing 2 by 6-lnch material
around these about three feet from
tbe ground: upon theso a few light
poles may be put cross-wise and straw
or coarse hay plied on top The straw
should be piled higher la the middle
than at tbe edges and smoothed down
so the rain will run off This will fur-
nish shade during the greater part of
the day No shelter should be built
where water caa run under it from the
surrounding ground
Hew to Figure Costs In Feeding Live
- Stock
The grain and other feeds grown on
fths farm where' they are fed should he
charged to stock at ths market value
at the farm which la the price at the
elevator minus the coot of hauling
This Is the result of seven years ex-
perience In studying farm coat ac-
counting problems In tbs section or
farm economica of the department of
agriculture
The object of cost accounting la to
show an analysis ot the entire farm
business and tbe relative profitable
ness of each enterprise as well as ths
relative costs should he made clear
If the farmer Is to learn the truth
about the cost of his corn oats hay
and other feed able products he must
do considerable figuring and have a
good understanding of farm cost ae
counting methods On tho other band
the market values of grains and other
feedable products serve as a common
standard from which any farmer may
easily figure the cost of feeding them
to lire stock Tbe market price at
the farm la the only logical as well as
the easiest method to follow If live
stock are essential for profitable farm-
ing In so many sections why should
the lire atoek euthuslats figure to
eliminate tbs profits ot crop growing
so that the live stock may appeal
mors profitable?
meal can be fed In limited quantities
provided the bogs have plenty of range
and an abundance of grain la fed at
the asms time It Is not advisable how-
ever that gr In rations should consist
of mors than one-flfth cottonseed
meal Even then It la good practlct
to feed the meal for two or three
weeks then drop It out of tho ration
for a couplo ot wekes returning to the
cottonseed meal later Feed a light
grain ration and endeavor to give ths
hogs plenty of exercise Under these
conditions hogs may be fed the meal
without any danger of losing many
but tbe station suggests that great
care be exercised Further tests will
be made
