HOGS AN AID TO THE FARMER. D Some people farm it for the love of Nature, and some for the amusement and glory that they get out of it, but almost everybody farms it in order to make a living. This last class, farmers of and by necessity, are the ones I.appeal to. With them, how to properly feed, clothe and educate their familiee are the®prime factors in life. The grocery bill is their greatest ex- 8e, and pork, or its products, is the gest single item on this bill It each family will produce its own pork it will materially increase its prosper- ity. This can be done, too, with very little trouble and at only a nominal expense if all the kitchen scraps, dam- grain and other waste products of the average farm are used for this purpose and at the same time a small plece of tillable land is set aside and for a hog sture. ‘A good way to the hog business and at the same time a sure way to get & pork supply for nothing is to fence about one acre of land hog- proof; also cross-fence it so as to make two lots. In these put a port- able hog house and plant each lot in whatever crop will make the surest and most abundant pasture in your lo- cality. .If the right crops are used green forage of some kind will be in| one or the other of these pastures nearly all the year round. A good pure-bred sow should be bought and she should give her owner | two_litters of biz strong pigs each year. With plenty of green pasture and waste from the kitchen and a very little grain the sow and litter can be well cared for. Then if the pigs are fed heavily on grain from the time they are six to eight months old they will be ready either for making the finest .home-cured bacon, hams and ymausage or for the local market. Y00 MANY BAD EGGS. Bad eggs cause Connecticut farm- ers a loss of thousands of dollars an- nually. Government experts estimate that five per cent, of the egs market- ed have developing chickens and that thres per cent. are .‘rots” due to the! embryo - decaying. All these losses could be avoided by keeping roosters out of the flocks, thus having only in- fertile -eggs produced. Infertile egs produced by flocks in which there is no male bird are the onty kind that can reach the consumer in good condition during the hot sum- mer months. The only object in hav- ing & male bird in the flock is to get fertile eggs for hatching purposes. Now that the hatching season is over, farmers are advised to sell off all the roosters or shut them away from the hens. * - ALFALFA. It is time to begin to plan for the alfalfa plot. Alfaifa’ stands drought better than clover, and probably the Toss from winter killing will usually be little if any heavier under favor- able' conditions. £ "The essentials for success are, in )? a well drained field with a natu- ral slope, preferably to the south, and a—finely prepared seed bed. This is easily provided if a fleld that has -grown early potatoes is selected. Lime 3 amount of two tons air slaked, or ce that amount of ground lime- stone, should be applied per acre ex- cept in limestone sections. .

Those best birds that have { worked hard during the breeding sea- | {son and that have thrown strong,! hardy, vigorous chicks should now be! given a summer vacation. If at all| | feasible, the males should be seggre- | gated. Any hens that have not stood {up well under the work they were]| { called upon to do should be culled from ! | the flock and marketed, thus leaving | | quite to themselves only the’ pick of | | the breeding stock.

St R ST TRANS-ATLANTIC FLYER IS STANDING TESTS. —_— Alights On and Arises From Water With No Difficulty—Flew 60 Miles an Hour. Hammondsport, N. Y., July 1.—Speed trials and a bench test of the new propellers marked the day's work on the Rodman Wanamaker-trans-Atlan- tic flving boat. At noon Lieutenant Porte, who is to pilot the boat, took the America out for the longest trip she has made in the air since the trials began.-a week ago. He flew off down the lake for several miles alighting on and arising from the water several times in the course of the trip and ap- parently having no difficulty in bring- ing the machine to planing speed on the water. On a trial against time over a marked course the machine showed a speed of sixty miles an hour. During this test the motors were run- | ing at twelve hundred revolutions per| m:)r:)ute instead of their maximum of 1300. _ A weight carryving test with the new propellers was planned for this aff- ernoon, but rain again interfered with the programme. A bench test of on of thg propellers showed static thrust, equal to that of the standard propel- ! lers installed for the preliminary tests but it is cla‘med for the new propellers that they will go relatively better un- der actual flying conditions than on the test block. Lieutenant Porte leaves tonight for 1£e New York but expects to return before sailing for Newfoundland to make certain that the permanent changes to be made to the hull have the desired effect. He said tonight he! hardly expected to be atle to make the ! Friday boat for St. Johns. | BANK MESSENGER LOST $65000 OF SERVANTS' SAVINGS Money Entrusted to Him Went in Bucket Shop Speculation. Philadelphia, July 1.—Thomas Lou- ry, once a coachman and later a mes- senger for a big banking firm in this city, was given a hearing In court today to explain how he lost ail but 32 cents of 365,000 entrusted to him for Investment by servants in the wealthy and fashionable section of the city. “I had done a little speculating with my own money,” he said, “and made a bit and lost a bit. A woman who worked in the household - where I ‘worked heard of my luck. She gave me $200 and I made $42 for her and gave her the money. ~ After that the servants worried me to death to take their money and speculate for them.” Loury told .then how he lost in bucket shops over a period of years money entrusted to him. “Then, as I see 1 said the court, “vou robbed these peor servants and then the bucket shops robbed you?” “That’s about it,” said Loury, sor- r-o;:v;‘full!r,be oury became a bank messenger in the firm of the banker for whom he ‘was a coachman, for more than twen- ty years.
