IN THE WORLD OF SPORT Jim Thorpe May Take Up Professional Hockey. 0 TIMELY HINTS FOR FARMERS Do Not Complain Newspaper subscribers who are in arrears should bear in mind that a dun is not an impeachment of their integrity, but simply the outcropping of a publisher's necessity. For instance, a thousand men who owe him from one to four dollars each. It is a small amount to each individual, but to him the aggregate is large. In stead of becoming indignant be cause the publisher asks for his honest dues, the deliuqueut sub scriber should be grateful to him for waiting so patiently and in ad dition to paying up, express his appreciation of his kindness and uncomplainiug indulgence.

log troubles are- due to too much dirt ami too much corn, says Kansas Farmer. Corn is a fat producer, but not a muscle Imlldur, and an exclusive corn diet during the growing period not only fulls to supply the element! needed by the autmal, but Is produc tlve of digestion troubles and weak uessea in the system which invite disease. Corn is a good element in the ration of miy bog at any time. Then1 Is nothing better, but it must be balanced by alfalfa, clover or some other nitrogenous feed during the growing period of pigs a ud the breeding periods of hogs. There Is only one period In the life of the bog when au exclusive corn ration should be used, and that la at the lust end of the fattening period of market hogs.

There is no time Id the life of a bog when be should notj have clean, dry sleeping quarters and pure drinking water. Hoth worms and cholera come with filth. Photo by American Press Association.
