times. The invincible Frenchman
and the undauntcd Englishmen met
to try conclusions, and on the issue of
that contest, it is not too much to

recapitulate the events of that mem

In 1927 Wellington's political life
in England began, and early in the
following year George ". called on
him to form ministry. Though a
member of the Tory party it was to
Wellington's credit that he was the

Where maize can be grown to per-
lection it will probably continue to be
one OF the chief food materials for
fattening swine, but in colder climates
other foods must be grown for this
purpose. IL. I. French, Of the Ore
gon Station, has continued the expert
ments OF feeding wheat TO pigs, and
the results are especially interesting
to farmers, who find the market price
of wheat about the same as that of
corn. In the rate of grain produced,
the results compare favorably with
those obtained from feeding corn.
Chopped wheat proved to be better
than chopped oats, and there was 49,
pounds of gain for each bushel of
wheat consumed. The quality of the
meat was all that could be desired in
fat pork. There was good thickness
of fat, and, at the same time, good
distribution OF lean meat. The pigs
We're eleven months old when slaugh-

twice each day, nt eight i'll the morn

ration was weighed out, and allowed
to soak until the time for the next
feed. A handful OF salt was added to
each feeding, and charcoal was given
to them twice week. The breed was

Every farmer should remember that

The Atlanta Constitution is con.
vlnced that no money-making scheme
is too rascally for some men, as wit
ness the gang lately arrested in New
York, which for years has been plum
dering insurance companies and cruelty
killing horses in order to secure in
surance money. They renteda stable,
filled it with fine horses, good har-
nesses and carriages, getting as large
insurance upon the contents as was
possible. Then a lot of worthless
horses, worn-out wagons, etc, vera
substituted and the stable set on fire.
The gang is known to have destroyed
more than dozen stables, involving
the death of 100 or more horses. The
law having got these rascals in it's
clutches, it is to be hoped dose will
be given them that will serve as u
warning to others.

THE CRADLE OF GREAT MEN.
Distinguished PubIicist Says the West

The typical Americans have all been
western men, with the exception. let
us say, of Washington. Washington
had not had much of European cult
ure. The qualities that made him a
great commander and a great presi-
dent were qualities which would have
made him an equally great frontiers
man. You can not imagine Hamilton
or Madison, or Livingston. or John
Adams, or the Pinckneys living toler-
ably on the frontier. They are not
Americans in the sense in which Clay
and Jackson and Lincoln are Amcri-
cans. We may wish that the typical
Americans Of the past had had more
knowledge, 4 more cultivated appreci-
alton OF the value OF what was old and
established, a juster view Of foreign
nations and foreign politics; that they
had been more like Webster and less
like jackson; and we NAV hone that
the typical American of the future
will be wiser and better poised. But
in the meantime the past is to be un-
derstood and estimated rs the facts
stand, and only Il thoroughly sympa-
theUc com Drchension oil these men
who have actually been the typical
Americans will enable Us to effect that
purpose. The fact that Clay rather
than Webster, jackson and not John
Quincy Adams. represented the forces
which were really predominant and

ment is commentary enough on any
theory that makes either of the pecul-
lar sections of the Atlantic seaboard
