BE pete oo tol es Pigs for.Six? Tf you had to sleep out doors these cold nights with _no more clothing than you wear in suminer, wouldn’t you appre- ciate a house Most animals have a good fur coat but the hog has almost nothing between his skin and the weather. You may be the exception to the rule, but many times the old mofher pig and her babies are not properly housed the very night they need it the most, the result is the pigs die and you lose their value. Our individual farrowing house six feet square and four feet, six inches high will only cost you $3.85, the price of two pigs; and you know it is not unusual for you to lose as many as five and six pigs from one litter when they - are left out. in the cold February and March rain and snow. And do you expect to make a success raising sheep and allowing the young lambs to be born out in the cold March*and Febru- ary storms. Mr. Jessup just north of Butler tells us that he lost almost all of his lambs last year for the lack of shelter. This year he has built a good warm house for his sheep and has saved almost all of the lambs. Don’t put off building these most necessary houses for your animals.

We expect his ar- rest today.” Deteetives are searching for the man suspeeted by Doherty. An analysis of a sample of the soup today showed unmistakable traces of arsenic, according to Dr. John Dill Robertson, head of the City Health Bureau.
