It  is  natural  for  a  hoi?  to  -wallow, 
a  wallow  close  to  the  feeding  grounds,  to 
which  add  Dr.  Hess  Pip  and  Disinfectant 
occasionally.  The  hog*  ynll  constantly 
pass  back  and  forth  from  the  wallow  to 
the  feed  trough;  while  the 
the  lice  and  cleanse  the  akin,  the  DRIP 
will  destroy  the  gorras  of  disease  and  the 
worms  that  pollute  the  ground.

cans,  outhouses,  etc.  Good  alike  for  home

Business  in  dried  apples  is  very  po<.r.  I .urge 
quantities  that  under  normal  conditions  would 
have  been  exported’  are  held  ill  storage,  waiting 
the  close  of  the  war.  Fresh  apples  are  usually 
wo  plentiful  and  comparatively  cheap  that  dried 
apples  are  not  popular  in  local  trade,  although 
peaches,  jirtlhes  and  apricots  are  largely  used.

apples  iu  Considerable  variety  are  on  band. 
The  highest  price,  i?4  to  $5.  is  for  Northwestern 
Greening  from  Virginia,  whore  it  is  a  Fall 
apple.  This  variety,  which  originated  in  Wis 
cousin,  was  mentioned'  in  the  files  of  The  U. 
X.  V  30  years  ago.  It  Is  a  handsome  apple, 
more  hardy  than  the  Rhode  Island  Greening. 
Commercially  ii  as  beau  more  saceemful  in  the
