American Chamber Of Commerce In Manila
Appeals to Congress In Aid Of
Chinese LsbOrers.

Manila, Jan. 27.-The American
chamber of commerce here has for
mulated an appeal to congress In
which 1t earnestly prays for tho en-
actment Of laws allowing China
men to enter the Philippine islands
under such restrictions as the United
States Philippine commission may
enact. The present restrictive law
concerning immigration, continues
this appeal, is of no benefit to the
Filipinos. Cinnamon, if admitted,
would not enter into competition
with local labor and their entry into
the islands is imperatively needed as
the tobacco, hemp and sugar lands
of the archipelago are only par
TALLY cultivated. Without this legis-
lation the country cannot be proper
ly developed. Building in Manila has
been badly retarded because of this
lack Of labor and for these reasons
the American chamber of commerce,
composed entirely of American citi-
zens representing commercial inter-
ests, respectfully prays for immedi-
ate action in this matter.

THE METCALF CHARGES


Washington, Jan. 21.~-The sub
c, mmittee of the senate committee
on pensions will possibly make re-
port to-day upon their investiga-
ton of charges against Col. Wilder
y, Metcalf, appointed pension agent
at Topeka. The evidence that has been
offered has been so thoroughly con-
Acting that the members of the
committee are undecided whether
to take further evidence. The fact
has been established that two Fill
Pine prisoners were killed. No evil
dence has been introduced to show
that Col. Metcalf had any personal
knowledge of the killing at the time.
The subcommittee will report the
facts to the full committee and ask
for Instructions. The Indications
are that the confirmation will be
made without further inquiry into
Col. Metcalf's connection with the
incident.

Schurman yesterday made a state

yesterday that he believed the policy

DOES 1T PAY?

Sunnyside, Wash, Nov. 20, 1902
Does it pay to fatten hogs on grain ?
Mr.. j. A. Rush, living one mile and a
half east of Sunnyside has large
herd of swine grown on alfalfa. At
the high price of grain he was unde-
cided whether to fatten the hogs or
sell them for stockers. One week ago
he weighed two shoats and put them
in a pen and fed them wheat chop,
soaked-all they could eat. When
they were put in they weighed ia
and 100 pounds, respectively. Seven
days later they weighed out 1874 and
1919, respectively. During this time
they were fed SO pounds and made a
total gain of 40 pounds, or two-fifths
of a pound of pork for every pound of
feed, or for $1.15 worth of grain he
produced 1920 worth of pork. There
is probably no kind of stock that will
yield better returns than swine wisely

Wheat Fed Hogs.

A splendid monument to the advan-
tages of diversified farming among the
wheat belts of the Inland Empire is
seen in the case of A. L. Swaggart, an
Athena rancher, who has one of the
finest herds of hogs in eastern Oregon.
Mr.. Swaggart, whose bunch numbers
It's, says he can make 81 per bushel
for every pound of wheat he feeds to
these hogs. He says further that it is
a real benefit to the wheat to have
hogs running over it in the winter.
Mr.. Swaggart claims that the grain
is checked from running too much to
straw on rich ground and that it heads
out better when swine have pastured
on it during the winter and early
spring months. AS a proof of this
statement he points to a field where
this was done last winter, and where
he harvested so bushels to the acre
this summer. He adds the remarkable
claim that wheat where no hogs were
run on the same ranch went 10 bushels
less to the acre.
200 hogs year, getting as high as
seven cents a pound on foot some
times. His estimate of 81 a bushel
for wheat is based on a hog rate of
only five cents per pound, liveweight.
A ready market is found on the coast.
Mr.. Swaggart is a pioneer in the hog
industry
