Barley, shorts, bran, and mangels, with skim milk, Mr. Wieneke con- siders an ideal ration for growing pigs, and barley pnd wheat-fed, or finely ground screenings, with a few mangels, make as good a finisher as can be had in any country. All these can be produced cheaply and abun dantly in the Prairie Provinces. He always tries to have plenty of pas- ture, and finds that fall rye makes the best in the fall and early spring, but for the rest of the growing sea- son alfalfa is the best. In 1916 he had a field of alfalfa which averaged four and a half tons to the acre, and which was cut three times. For those who have no alfalfa he recom- mends a mixture of barley and rye sown at different times during the summer. He also feeds chopped rye to pigs of all ages and grown hogs. varying as to the age of the animal and finds it one of the best feeds to produce growth and muscle, Hog raising has been making big money for many farmers in Western Caneda this year. To the small farmer they are indispensable, afford- ing him a steady income. Every week prices are rising, apd a few in- stances of sales made by farmers in Alberta this year will be illuminat- ing. In April Jast a number of farm- ers of Ben' Accord, Alberta. clubbed together and shipped & car contain- ing 86 hogs, weighing 17.400. on which théy realized $2,563.51. after payment of freight and expenses. In June a farmer of Crossfield, Alberta, shipped a car of 84 bogs to Calgary. Their total weight was 20 000 and the net amount realized by this farmer was $3,000. In September a Gleichen farmer shipped two cars of bogs in successive weeks, on the first of which his net receipts were $3500 and on the second $4039. The price of which the hogs in the latter car were sold was $19 a hundred pounds In the same month a car load made up by a party of twelve farmers of Leduc, Alberta, and sold at Edmon- ton, realized $2,123.61. Another car, from Sangude.' Alberta, made up by five farmers, netted the owners $1,580. The price of the hogs in these two cases 'was $17.50 a bun- dred pounds. A farmer of St, Al- berta. Alberta. sold 79 hogs at Ed- realized $3.39%%50, or an average of $42.53. The initial cost and the cost of talsing them he estimated at $20 so that his product amrunted to $22.53 per hog. 5 C.W., 85%¢; tra No. 1 T815¢; No. No. 3, do., 79%e¢; ex- feed, 79%c; No. 1 feed, 2 do., 73%e¢. -Barley-- No. $1.29: No. 4, $1.34; rejected and feed, $1.16.

It is the latést version of Germany's-psalm of hate, and ap- parently was widely distributed among the German invaders in the advance into Italy:--- "Son of Germany in arms: "This is our intoxication, Glory to the artillerymen of ours.

The life of the vanquished is absorb- ed by the wictor; the slayer becomes owner of the life of his slain. "See now how in the breast of thy sacred country is coniained the life of the world. Do not stoop to femiu-~ ine pity toward women and children. The son of the vanquished has been often the victor of to-morrow. What is the worth ot victory if to-morrow we have the revenge?

The man had. been severely 'burned about the legs in a fire in ah ouflying village, and with the other injured persons had been placed on.a passing freight train to be taken to the nearest hospital. The man pulled a tarpaulin over himself, and so, when the others were removed, he was overlooked. The train arrived at Krugersdorp during a Saturday evening, and .the truck was shunted into the station yard. The whole of Sunday and Monday the native remained without food or water, under the tarpaulin, and he was only discovered on Tuesday at- ternoon when a checker went his rounds. Railway men were on the point of placing mealies on the truck when they noticed a movement under the sail, and the native, semi-con- scious and partially damebied, was found unable to 'move muc n "Burn, kill kilt, kil close examination it was found that "Such is the life of glory." his lower limbs were in - white . state, and lie was remov 0 : hospital.
