FIGHTING LICE ON HOGS. How to Keep the Imvrtji In Snl»Jee tioa In a Problem That In Pu*. slinftf >1 nn y Farmers. Ever since we began raising hogs the hog louse has given trouble more or less —generally more. It is one of the drawbacks 1o successful hog growing. Lice must be kept in sub jection if the pigs are to do their best. The average farmer has more to do than can be looked after properly, and this is one of the things that is apt to be neglected. There are many preparations that will kill every louse it touches and it is no great task to apply them. But we should bear in mind that when the herd is once infested with them the nits are hatching all the time, and one or two applications do but little good. The fight must be kept up for weeks, sometimes months, and there must be a careful watch for them always. It is important to know what will kill hog lice, but it is far more important HOG LOUSE; HIGHLY MAGNIFIED. to know how to apply it with the least trouble, and then apply it regularly, at stated times, until the pigs are clean and thrifty. Then do not think the herd will be free from the pest for a term of months or years, but keep a constant watch and be ready to begin another war on them. I have used coal oil, kerosene emul sion, decoction of tobacco, carbolic acid and some of the "sheep dips," and know that all of them are sure deatk to the lice when properly mixed and vigorously applied. For cheap ness and effectiveness the kerosene emulsion is preferred above all the others. I have applied all these, ru' '"'ng on ■with cloth or sponge, by spraying with a bucket pump and with the knapsack sprayer. A very thorough job may be done by washing with a sponge, but this is not practical in the case of hogs being £>-own for mar ket. and these are the Oi that gen erally need treatment The bucket pump cannot be shifteu about the pens readily enough to be of any great value. It seems to me that there is but one best, practical way to apply these washes, and that is with the knap sack sprayer. With it, the work can be done so easily and perfectly that I have come to regard it as an abso lute necessity on the hog farm. We have had one of the best for several years, which cost $6.50, and if a new one had to be bought every second year, I should consider the money well spent. In spraying hogs it is not best to do the work while they are merely eating slop or other feed. Thorough work cannot be done in this way The hiss of the nozzle and the spray striking them will scare the most hoggish hog away. The better way is to get the hogs in a close pen, get the mixture in the tank, get the tank on your back and get yourself ovet In the pen. Try to remember that the mixture costs but a trifle, and don't save it. Spray them until every hog is dripping wet all over, and there will be no lice In that bunch for a few days. Then repeat the proc ess. It is but little trouble, costs but a few cents, and will pay better than ar.y other way that amount of money and time can be spent.—Ohio Farmer Next Summer** HOB: Pasture. Hog raisers should be looking for ward to the hog pasture for next year and preparing for it. It often takes as much time to plan successfully as to execute successfully, hence we cannot begin too early to plan for the new campaign. It is a mistake to suppose that any one kind of grass or plant will serve as a hog pasture all through the year. A number of forage plants should lie available. The first of these is blue grass, which comes in in the spring and will carry the hogs forward to the time the young clr.vcr is high enough to eat. When the clover gets too old to be succulent, there should be a field of rape available, and after that may come cow peas in sections where cow peas can be grown.- -F'*rm ers' Review. Gooite Market fit Wnnan, At Warsaw, Poland, they hold a goose market every year in October. The geese, about 3,000,000 in number, are driven to Warsaw from all parts of the country. Many of them come from distant provinces and as a con sequence have to travel many miles over roads that would wear out their feet unless some means were taken to protect them. This is done by driving them through tar poured upon the ground and then through sand. The operation is repeated several times, and by the time they are ready to start their feet are completely cov ered with a hard crust which etfec. protects them from all injury, I FILLED ALL REQUIREMENTS.

"Ma \v its you should pick her out a book,'' saiu a freckle-faced girl to the bright young woman in charge of the free library of a New England village; "and she don't want l serious one, she says, nor she don't want a love story, without it's founded on fact. Nor of course, she don't want anything she's ever read before." The librarian tapped her pencil thought fully on the desk, without a trace of de spair which a chance listener to thisdialogue expected to see on her face. "Nor she don't want anything that's chopped up into short stories, she says," continued the girl, bent on the librarian's further enlightenment, "and she wants con siderable going on, and a lot of pictures, ma does. And she told tne partie'lar to say she didn't want no di'lec' stories: she says she knows well enough how folks in the country talk." Still the librarian thoughfully tapped her pencil, apparently waiting for further in structions. "She wants a real sensible book, the kind grandma likes and I like, too," volunteered ma's" emissary; then suddenly she leaned over the librarian. "Say," she whispered, hoarsely, "if there's one of the Robinson Cruzo books in, ma said you'd better gimme that." "Certainly," said the librarian, pleasant ly, and a moment later the well-thumbed ropy of the famous adventures had changed hands, and the happy possessor of it de parted wreathed in smiles.
