"HOGGING OFF" IS PRACTICAL
No 8etter Way to Fatten 8wlna With

Them Loose In Field.
Thero la no better way to fatten
hogs with profit to the owner, than
to turn them loose in the cornfield
and let them pick the com them-
Helves. This Is what is called "hog-
ging ofT corn."
It has been found In experiments |
by the Minnesota Experiment station
and by practical farmers In all parts '
of the state, writes A. R. Wilson, su-
perintendent of the Minnesota Farm-
ers' institute, that this method of
fattening hogs is a profitable one.
Every farmer who has tried It agrees
that It Is an economical method of
fattening pork. The time required to
husk and crib corn is saved. Not only
that, but the hogs get the corn when
It is fresh and more relished. No
wonder, then, the station found that
more pounds of pork could be mude
from a bushel of corn by "hogging
off." than by eating husked corn.
All that is necessary to make the
plan a feasible one Is to obtain

to give the hogs a large field to run

Some Kind of Protection From Irv>

When the hogs are turned out to

It Is composed of one-Inch roofing

A shed like this is very nice to have

models are of the cavalier type, fin-

away from the plainness of the design.
There are dainty little flowered silk
shoes, and those of flowered linen are
very pretty when worn with linen
frocks. The silk ones are of the Pom-
padour design as a rule, with yellow
or mauve backgrounds and bouquets
of blossoms sprinkled over them.
HELP IN PACKING THE HAT
Trimming* Built on a Separate Nar-
rower Bandeau Can Be Detached
From the Frame.
The stowing away of a number of
hats is one of the most difficult prob-
lems when packing. Kven the most
roomy ha' box will scarcely hold the
hats of this season, which are not only
large in circumference, but built high
with algrets and bows. To overcome
this inconvenience, hat trimmings may
be built on a separate narrower ban-
deau, which slips over the outside of
the crown of the hat and can be ad-
Justed to suit one's fancy.
This trimmed bandeau is removed
when the hat is packed and It will ac

Something More Than Mere Filling Is
Required by Young Animal—
Oon't Use the Whip.
(By MAT PEINTNER.)
A young and growing animal re-
quires something more than mere i
filling It must have nutritious and
tissue-building. blood-making food
It is much easier and cheaper to
put two years' growth on a colt the
first year of its age than it is to
"make up" for a year's Iobs of growth
In two or three years. A good growth
the first year of a colt's life costs less
than at any other age and Is twice
as valuable to the breeder—& fact
that Is too often ignored Spare the
feed and spoil the colt Is surely true.
In training the colt do not use the
whip simply because you have It. It
Is a very poor driver who makes a
blow the Btartlng signal. See that
..nere is feed and water In abundance
and a clean, dry bed.
Don't neglect the shoeing; It Is
vital on slippery roads or pavements:
nor the blanket In cold weather, when
the colt Is standing out. Don't over-
load' nor let the colt stand In the
un, nor where water drops on him.

It should always stand In such a
way as to afford the most protection

while still enjoying the pleasure and
the advantage to reduce the quantity
taken to a minimum When tea iti large
quantities is taken with meals, instead
of aiding digestion It retards it; fur-
thermore, it Is liable to cause wake-
fulness and nervous restlessness.
Tea should never be allowed to
"steep" Indefinitely, the additional tan-
nin that is thus extracted makes It
much more mischievous. No dietetic
error could be worse for the nervous
system than the practice of keeping a
teapot continually on the range, for
refreshment at all hours Even greater

When a shape Is found to be par-
ticularly becoming, several bands may
be built to harmonize with different
costumes. The wired band is made of
a bias strip of buckram large enough
to slip over and fit the crown at the
lower edge. It may then be covered
with a material to match the straw, or
with the same color as the trimming.
Kibbons or flowers around the band
form a pretty low trimming, or the
band may be left plain and Inconspicu-
ous, with a fastionable high garniture
massed at one side. These finished
bands may be turned and moved
about on the crown until the most
becoming angle is attained. Then
they are securely fastened with a few
pins.

To Avoid the Runty Pig.
Runty pigs stand a poor show at
the feeding trough with a bunch of
their husky brothers and sisters. As
they are crowded out of place natur-
ally they do not get enough to eat to
keep them growing and they stay
runty.
A trough arranged with V-shaped
partitions set strongly In the trough,
would give the little fellows an equal
•how with the big ones, and the
weaker ones could get their share of
food. A handy man can make such
a trough arrangement In an hour or
so. and the even growth of his pigs
would more than pay for his trouble.
Breaking ths Colt.
The earlier the colt Is made used
to the harness, the better broken the
animal will be when It comes time
for him to do some light work. It is
easier to keep colts from learning
bad tricks than to break them of
such habits. For that reason have
•very strap and rope tised by the
colta ao strong that there Is no dau-
ger of a break. Once a colt finds
out that he cat. get away from a
halter or other parts of the harness
there will be trouble, perhaps for all
time.

The levelness with which a horse
walks Is one of the best evidences
that his legs work In harmony.
Sweet clover and alfalfa feed heav-
ily on the lime which accounts for
the larger growth of young stock.
After a day's work clean the work
horse thoroughly, wash their legs
from the knees down and rub dry.
Don't leave the sheep In a dry, short I
pasture. Give them a chance In a
fresh pasture, or give a good grain
ration.

lage beef on the market than ever b«^

early spring.
