Hogging down corn is an easy way of feeding the hogsand harvesting the corn and usually everything is in its favor. This fall, however, it may be well to be more careful than usual about the ‘‘hogging.’’ Corn will be cash this fall and winter. Anyone who gets that melancholy feeling these splendid autumn days should come out and help the busy farmer fill silos, thresh, shock corn and plow, also fill his hide so full of apples, plums, grapes and other eat- ables that he will forget his melan- cholia and the high cost of living for a month. It may be the proper thing to in- crease the limit of parcel post pack- ages to 100 pounds, but it will not do to forget that if someone is to get something for nothing the other fel- low must pay something for nothing. It is not too early to begin cleaning up the orchard for winter. No grass should be left around the trunks of the trees where the mice can make their winter quarters, dead limbs and water sprouts should be removed, in _ short, a general clean up should be made. It pays. = The little gasoline engine will turn the hand separator and do good work if the right kind of pulleys are used, but it should be partitioned off in a room by itself or at least have the exhaust connected up outside. The. smell of gasoline must be kept away from the cream. ‘ Where it is possible to do so a rath- er long, heavy belt should be used on agas engine. It gives a steadier mo- tion and seems to add to the power. It is ‘‘school time’’ again. After a vacation, the children are glad to get back together, but the grind willsoon tell and the boy who is interested in the work at home will beg to stay out of school to make a hand. Corn is going to be corn this year, whether the user of it raises enough for his own needs or whether he must buy it. It will pay to feed to best possible advantage—certainly not to shovel it over to the hogs into a mud hole. The price of coal is not as high now as at this time last year. The ‘weather has been so hot no one has wished to be found guilty of hauling coal for the winter supply, but winter SUFFERED AWFUL PAINS For Sixteen Years. Restored To Health by Lydia E.

Covering seed with a harrow looks like guess-work to me now. The old-style horse power, with its attendant equipage of tumbling rods, knuckles and speed gears, has gone entirely out of fashion. Steam and gasoline have driven them ‘away back” and have taken a great load off man’s best servant, thehorse. Ihave two lengths of tumbling rod I am keeping as a relic and also for handy bars about the place. The time to tie acorn shock is as soon as it’s finished. A stiff wind, the other day, proved this beyond all possible doubt, as most of the shocks that were not tied were blown and twisted every which way. The galvanized iron pail is handiest and lightest to handle, but its extreme lightness is proving its undoing, for most of them are being made of too light iron to prove durable. If some manufacturer would only use a heavi- er guage of iron, even at a 20 percent advance in price, it would bea cheap- er article to buy in the long run. All indications point to higher pric- ed meat by another summer than ever has been known in this country be- fore intimesof peace. Bothpork and beef will be high because the grain and other feed required to make it will be high. Even the yellow legged rooster and the old Tom turkey will; #e* be roosting high. When the Farmer Prospers Whene’er the farmer goes to town to sell a load of oats, Or market sixteen bags of beans, or ship a load of shoats, The business men along the street are sure to treat him well, They ask him what he sold, and how much more he has te sell; They find out how much seed it took to sow a certain field, And then inquire about the prospects for a bumper yield. ; They’re always happy when the farmer's raising thrifty flocks, For if he does not prosper business soon goes on the rocks. Whene’er the weather man says that there’ll be no frost at night : The business men along the street all chuckle with delight, Because they know that ears of corn increase in size and weight Each time the weather man reports that Old Jack Frost is late. The business men along thestreet are glad when pumpkins thrive Downon the farm, for pumpkins keep the canning plant alive. At times when farmers prosper busi- ness men can sell their stocks, But when the crops fail business mighty soon goes on the rocks. The farmer can’t get rich too quick to suit the city folk. Whene’er the farmer sells his steers he buys his wife a cloak, And if he gets a good price for his corn and oats and hay He buys a railroad ticket and goes out west to stay All winter, and a portion of the mon- ey then is paid To section men for laying track and building railroad grade. The section men, of course, then go down town and buy some socks, But if the farmer doesn’t prosper bus- iness hits the rocks. 2 —Howard C. Kegley. | Mrs. W. C. Heddon is Dead ' Mrs. W, C.

Some came ahead of time in order to get work during their spare hours. It is thought possible that the dry summer may keep some away who ‘otherwise would have come. One effect of the drouth is that the Uni- versity Employment Bureau has re- ceived more applications for work than usual. By arule of the curators, the tui- tion fee of $10 a semester, which was formerly required in the profession- al schools of the university, has been done away with. - Instead the library, hospital and in- cidental fee, which is paid by stu- dents in all departments, has been in- creased from $5 to $10 a semester. Under the old ruling students in the professional schools were requir- ed to pay $10a semester more than those in the academic and agricultur- al departments. Real Estate Transfers. Chas L.

From the Journal. Huston.—Sophia Simpson wasborn October 20th, 1822, in Portsmouth, Ohio, and died September 4, 1913, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. H. L. Fair, in Adrian, aged, 90 years 10 months and 14 days. H. H. Burk living five miles south- east of Adrian, lost his house and part of the contents by fire last Friday. Owing to the dry weather all efforts to save the building were unavailing. Mrs. Alex Goodbar found her four- weeks-old son dead in bed Thursday morning at 9:30 o’clock. The babe had been quiet longer than usual and the mother went to the bed and found it dead.
