WHY IS A HOG?
If a hog does not, in his daily
growth< give due recognition to
the fact that the sole end of his
existence is the making of pork,
then what is he here for? The
farmers' Institute to be held
Tuesday, February 20, will discuss this, the life mission of the
porker, and, advise with farmers
as to the methods by which the
largest amount of pork may be
placed upon the frame-work of
the hog in return for the feed
given him. Also as to methods
of slaughtering and caring for
farm use, or of so preparing
the animal for market as to
fetch the highest price. It will
be shown how a slight variation
in the ration may have a large
influence in determining the
figure at which the hog, when
sold, shall "tip the scale."
Convenient Shos Horns.
A problem which has agitated the
feminine mind for some time has been
successfully solved at last. A way in
which women may reach their feet unaided, even though corseted, comes to
relieve those who are overburdened
with obesity. How is this feat accomplished? It's simple if one possesses
one of the new shoe horns which have
a three-foot wooden handle attached
to the horn. This novelty is imported,
and though the price may seem high,
the relief purchased with one of these
toilet accessories is certainly .worth
the price.
What Could She Mean?

hanging around bothering me." Miss
Pert—"You do a great deal of serious
work, do you not?"—Baltimore American.

WHAT THE INSTITUTE OFFERS
The Farmers' Insuitute brings
to the assistance of our local
farmers in the work of improving crop production and bettering the life of the farmstead,
all the specialized learning of
the experts at the School of
Agriculture, all the results of
the work done at the .State Experiment Station, and all the
information gathered from wide
observation and comparison of
processes on many farms. The
opportunities of" the Institute
are offered at the season of the
year when it is most easily
practicable for farmers to avail
themselves thereof, and few
are they who can afford to lose
them by a failure to attend the
meetings.

DOLLARS' WORTH OF INFORMATION
If it should be announced that
the state would next week send
a group of men to this town to
distribute bags of gold dollars
among the farmers, the amount
for each 'o be apportioned ac-
CO ding to the number of intelligent Questions asked by him,
how many of them would stay
away; and how many would
fail to prime themselves in advance with interrogations? but
the reservoirs of useful information which the Farmers' Institute workers will keep "on
tap" (hiring their stay here, will
be worth more than bags of
gold; and they will be emptied
for the benefit of questioners
every day. Sought for, and tip-
plied in the work of the farm,
the information thus distributed
will increase production, multiply the satisfaction of agriculture, and brighten the life of
the farm home.
