Dir:!idav Party.
A preaching appointment took
Rev. and Mrs. John Mellott from
home on Saturday and Easter
Sunday. When they returned
home Easter Sunday evening
they were not a little surprised
at seeing so many persons about
the house. The first thought
that shot through their minds
was, that something terrible had
happened. Mrs. Mellott was
taken from the buggy and rushed
nto the house by Frank Skiles
and Sheridan Hann; but when
the door was opened and she saw
a well filled table with every
thing ready for a big feast, it
occurred that her friends were
pulling a joke over on her, for
then she remembered that it was
her fiftieth birthday. Those
present were: Rev. and Mrs.
John Mellott, Mr. and Mrs. Still
well Truax, Mr. and Mrs. John
Strait, Mr. and Mrs. Sheridan
Hann, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence
Mellott, Rev. and Mr3. W. R.

Feed For Young Pigs.
Before weaning young pigs it
is well to accustom them to a
grain mixture or a slop of sweet
milk combined with grain. The
Pennsylvania State College Agri
cultural Experiment Station has
obtained excellent results with a
grain mixture of corn meal four
parts, and tankage one part. The
addition of skirnmilk increases
the rate of grain. If skirnmilk
is fed with this grain mixture
the amount of corn meal may be
increased to six parts. Other
mixtures recommended are corn
meal eight parts and tankage one
part, or skinnni'k three parts and
corn meal one part.
If possible pasture crops should
be used for growing pigs. For
quick growth of pigs, two to four
pounds of grain per hundred
pounds live weight daily in addi
tion to pasture crops is required.
The amount of grain fed should
be governed largely by the ap
petite of the pigs. They should
be fed all they will consume with
out waste twice daily.

I have just bought some Security Calf Food which is guaranteed to take the place of whole
fresh cow's milk for calves and pigs. You can veal a calf, if fed properly with this food, in
from four to five weeks old. This food is something entirely new for this community and I
positively believe it will pay any one who is feeding calves to try it. Money reiunded if it
does not give satisfaction. Thanking the people for all the past favors and hoping for a con
tinuation of your patronage, I beg to remain Yours truly,
