Management of Youpg TaskeYa• The atting and showina of swine It is at hatching time that we ap- an art in itself quite apart from predate haviag saeed the tame plai- t/oat of breeding. The careful breeder • who prides himself an the breeding •aad typiness of his hogs need not necessarily be unbeatable in ahe show ring. In large show classes. where the competitioa is keen, the winning individuals must possess other mien, fications thaa truenese to type alone, and probably one of the most import- ant considerations other than type is what may be called show condition. This show condition is found in its greatest perfection at our larger shows where breeders with years of experience at their backs are in keen competition with one another. For those breeders who are lees exper- ienced and wile may wish to take a hand in the game a few suggestions at this time may not be averse. Iadi- viduals which it is the intention of the owner to exhibit at this fall's shows should be selected at once. Tbis is important it maximum size and de- velopment is to be obtained, and every day that thie is delayed maans that xnueli more of a handicap for the in- dividual in the show ring. It is impossible to realize the de- sired remits by forcing at the last moment, at being necessary, in order to obtain full development, to bring the individual along gradually. Forced feeding results in excess fleshing, with retarded development of frame, or on the other hand it may result ip game - nese and lack of quality. Pasture, supplied with shade from the sun, and also, if available, running water, provide ideal conditions for the hog during the summer. These, com- bined with a well balanced neeal ratien fed in conjunction with green feed and skim milk, form a combination that is capable of giving the most favorable results. The meal ration which is selected for this purpose should be one cal- culated to develop bone and muscle &ging the initial stages of the fatting period, and for the latter stages a somewhat higher percentage of fat • g shoulde supplied. In order to appear to the greatest advantage the akin of the hog must be free from blemishesor roughness of any kind, and present a clear, healthy appearance.' One great source of trouble, more particularly with white -skinned hogs is that of sunburn. This can. largely be prevented if some‘ protection from the sun, either na- tural or artificial, is available where the hog may take shelter throughout the hotter parts of the day. These precautions are not sufficient, how:a ever,, if the skin of the hog is IV appear to the best advantage, so washing must be resorted to. It is not sufficient to let the washing go until the day before showing. Some considerable time before the hog is to be 'shown, at intervals of a few days, a thorough scrubbing with a eoft bristled brush, linseed soap, and clean water are advised in order to clean the dirt out of the pores. Cleanse with clear water, and carefully re- move all • soap. Such treatment re- sults in the freshness and bloom that Ls so attractive and desirable in show hogs. Frenquent handling of the hogs is neeSseary in order to have them ac- eustamed to the presence and also submit to the will of their attendant 'without undue disturbance. Fine powdered charcoal is useful in keeping clown digestiae troubles in chides. It can be bought for about five cents per pound at, feed stares or made by running ehaecoal through a feed grinder. If the charcoal is stored it must be in a rather dry place. It soon absorbs moisture and then loses /nude of its value to the chick's. Eye troubles and colds among grow- ing chicks result from overcrowding in dusty brooder houses. As soon as the brooders ate removed it pays to inat,all moats. Even if a few crooked breasts should result from early roost- ing they an leas loes than an epidemic of colas. Most poultry troubles ean be pre- vented. A greet many of theta: are difficult to cure.

The typical turkey hen resent e interference, but the •tante cards -willing that we share her responsibiUty and is ne of tbe eat - est factors of success in rearing the young. She evill allow ue to take the little ones from the nest Or to feed and care for them without becoming nervous and cross. When the bat& is completed she should be kept froni wandering away as she is instinctively inclined to do, and I have found the following method most satisfactory: • Take the hen and little ones care- fully from the nest to the house which is ready for them. This is a geed roomy, well ventilated house, the di- mensions of which sletuld not be less than three feet ley four feet, and four feet high at the front. Then tie a strong soft cloth to the shank of the hen and to this tie six or eight feet of clothesline. This is fast- ened to a weight (an old plow point is good) which is placed just outside of the house. After putting her down keep the little poults at a distance until she is accustomed to being tied. She will soon quiet down, call the little ones to- her and make the best of the situation. She can go ar and aut of the house and can be removed to fresh, grassy places cluriag the day, but is shut in with a wire netting door at night and during storms. After a week or ten days she is given her freedom but is brought back to the house at night and in stormy weather until they are old enough to roost. See that the house is kept edz.an aml dry. First feed is given when from twenty-four to thirty-six. hours old: This is dry bread ground fine and mixed with hard-boiled egg. Feed four time's daily, just a little at a time. After three days begin giving rolled oatsatenee a day at first, and later alternately vribh bread and egg-. When about cne week old start feeding a good grade of thick graira semetintes adding cracked wheat. At about this time also, a mash is added to the iation for the morning meal and is made as fellows: Finely chopped greens (onions, lettuce or dandelions), mixed with bread and egg and with rolled oats. A small amount of granulated charcoal may be added at times. Gradually discontinue the egg and bread and add more of the rolled oats and some bran to tbe Smash. Never prepare more than you want to feed at one tirae and never feed more than they -will clean up quickly. Continue this mash, chick grain and rolled oats, feeding four times daily for the first month or six weeks., cur until they are ready to go away on range. They are very fond of lettuce when taught to eat it from your hand, - Sour milk, thick clabbered milk, is a valuable part of the ration. Start giving when three or four day e old and continue theaugh the seaeon. Let them have all they will take twice a day. See that they have a. supply of fresh water at all times. Never overfeed. The amount given should not be more than they will clean up thoroughly in three or four miautee. Feed osi dean boards or trays and proyale grit (coarose sand'), oyster shell, and charcoal where they can reach it at all times A windbreak of evergreens is very useful on the poultry range during hot weather. Poultry dislike the hot dry winds. Often the windbreak is diffi- cult to start all in one year as some of the trees may die. 'It pays to fill in the vacant places for a. year or two until the solid line is well established. . • The wool vitiation has improved, materially of late. This market is tending upward and producers are re- adieMg more from their flocks than they have these past two yearn. This does net mean, however, that rejects and improperly prepared wool will not sell at a heavy discount below dear wool. It as, therefore, more important to the farmer that he exereiee care d judgment in getting the fleeces ready for market.

Uncle Daniel, passing through' the sitting -room, heard Katie wishing. "Come out -with me," he said; -na put you on an airplane." Katie, with her dell in her ATMS, ran out after her uncle. "This will take you up in the air." "Why, Uncle Daniel, this is only just the swing." "Well, can't you make believe?

Tastes Change Rapidly:. , If your child has a roma te him- self, he will take pride in making it beautiful—that is, if you give him full liberty to decorate it as he thinks best. The tastes of ehildren differ Widely. You cannot make. a boy Or an out-of-door, athletic girl love and cherish a dainty pink -and -white room. On the other hand., the r00111 of boyish mucleness and simplicity will chill the heart ea. a girl whose tastes run» to frills and fine needlework. Then, tao, the tastes ef a child change as he grows older, A girl may at first show an alarming, affece tion for gaudy posters :and sentimental pictures and may clutter up her dress- ing table with photographs and use- less teinkete, but thin is only a pass- ing phase. la she is given cha.nee she will get over it •into the realm of good sense and good taste.

Herwev,ee, soine cases it has remelted in some sickness and death of horses because of colds and pneumonia con- tracted when standing in a corta plac.e after being warmed up to a consid- erable extent. The lighter bateeas of horse, including trotting and driving horses, seem to fall this class, but it is possible that draft boeses, too, are affected just as intleh. A system used in, some plates is to dip the lege and about one-half of the body of the horses, leaving the sides and back covered with the original coat of hair to be disposed of in nat- ural shedding. This appeals to many farmers because it Ieavea the legs of the horses clean and the baie does net hold se much dirt when the legs get muddy. Clipped' in this manner the diet is easily bruebed off and the horses , relieved. With the half -and- half treatment a heavy &at horse cannot ,000l off se, quickly, even though warmed up considerably and- there as less danger from sickness. , While this style of clipping presents a ra.ther odd appeaerace, it is not long until the top zoat begins to shed and with good rdlebiag and currying the difamence te soon undleservable.

Perhaps it is becateee they are notoriously hard' on furniture, Whatever the reason, the boy between ten and eighteen is apt to be the one Who 'always receives, the most unclesie- able room and the raost unattr.active furniture. The dresser minus casters or drawer . knobs, the bed .that sags in the middle, the wain and faded rug, are thought "good enough" for Johnny.
