THE CHRISTMAS
SPIRIT

AFTER a year of strife and
confusion the world is about to
declare an armistice for the ob
servance of Christmas. It is
curious how the essence of
Christianity gets itself recog
nized and practiced in spite ot
the world, the flesh and devil.
In this time of good will
everbody becomes Christian,
for Christmas is is simply the
substitution of the spirit ol'giv
in# for the spirit of getting.
When Jesus was born in
Bethlehem there came to the
i world a new concept ion of God
and of his relations to man.
The Child lying in the Bethle
hem manger will forever sym
bolize and express the world
moving truth that God is love
and, therefore, He gives Him
self to and for men made in
His image
Tradition records that when
the Wise Men from the East
journeyed to Bethlehem to wor
ship the new-born Child, they
brought gifts.
The gift of God is life etern
al. here and hereafter. When

1 his divine spark animates the
bosoms of fcwfri, they, too, be
gin to give.
Giving is the chief business
of life for God and men alike.
What a man gives he has. He
loses all else. Earthly immort
ality lies in whatever one gives
to one’s fellows in service and
friendship and healing.
1 wonder if we shall ever be
able to practice the Christmas
spirit the year round!
If that time ever comes we
shall find the most of our per
sonal and social problems, per
plexities, animosities and fail
ures are unnecessary. If we
want spring and summer and
golden harvest, we must have
the sun.—Dr. Charles Aubrey

WHY DO SO MANY
FARMERS BUY MEAT?
J. W. Recknor in Farm
& Ranch
It is indeed surprising how
many farmers fail to raise
their own meat supply. Go
into any grocery store and sew
for yourself how much bacon
and lard the farmers buy. If
we look into the matter a lit
tle closer, we shall find that
many do not even butcher but
one or two hogs a year and
that others only slaughter half
enough to last till next hog
killing time. We must say
that as long as farmers depend
on the stores for their bacon
just that long will they be in
a hard rut.
The first step is to procure
a good pig or two. When we
say a good pig, we mean a
purebred; for anything short
of the best is not good enough
for the farmer who labors
from sun to sun, striving to
make a living for himself and
family. We prefer a Poland
China or Duroc Jersey. But
before buying bacon and lard,
get any kind of pig and fatten
him. Then, at the first oppor
tunity get the purebred pig..
Our argument for the pure
bred is because you can place
the razorback with him and
give both of them the same
treatment and the good pig
will show a gain on every side.
In just a few months, you can
leadily tell the difference, ev
en at a distance as far as you
can see. Aren’t we right when
we say we are for purebreds?
Many farmers could almost
raise their own meat by feed
ing the pigs scraps, from the
kitchen table. In many farm
homes we find that practically
all table wastes are used to
no advantage whatever. Some
; farmers have more dogs than
they really need and the same
feed which it takes for those
dogs would feed a pig or two,
thereby saving the meat bill.
It is wise to plant a few pea
nuts each year to run the pigs
on in late summer. Peanuts
are fine to fatten hogs and if
corn is fed two weeks before
killing, the peanut hog cannot
be distinguished from any oth
er hog. One nice thing about
peanuts is that the hogs can do
the harvesting themselves. This
way of getting the peanuts
harvested saves much labor.
Quite a few farmers plant
peas in their corn just about
laying by time and then when
the corn is gathered the pigs
are put on the peas. Besides
getting peas, the pigs find
scattered ears of corn, which
helps greatly. Whipporwill
peas cannot be excelled for
growth of small hogs and the
pigs. Therefore, it would pay
well to have a patch of peas
to put the pigs on every sum
mer, either planted in the corn
or to themselves.
Then after you have worked
so hard trying to provide feed
for the hogs do not fail, to give
them a shade in hot weather
and plenty of good fresh unit
er. Every summer we see hogs
penned up in pens with scarce
ly any shade and practically
no water to drink. Plenty of
good water cannot be dispens
ed with in growing pigs.
In the winter, hogs should
have a dry place to sleep. We
cannot expect much out of a
hog that has to sleep under the
house or barn. A comfortable
sleeping shed can be provided
with a few pieces of solid lum
ber.
