CONCENTRATION POLICY.
Senate Committee Hears Defense Of
One of Reasons for Spanish War.

BY Associated fGeSS.i
WASHINGTON. May 23-The Senate
Committee on the Philippines to-day
heard the testimony of ooionel A l.
Wagner. assistant adjutant general of
the army, who spent two and a half
years in the Philippines. He was ques-
toned about the concentration camps
and described the system of executing
the details OF ore particular camp In
that camp the people were assembled
according to villages so that the people
would in all cases have their old neigh
bors near them and so far as he had
been able 10 observe there was no evil
dence of want among the peopla thers
congregated Moreover they were sur
prisingly contented They were at liberty
to go outside the line from 800 to 500
yards but beyond that distance was
what was called the Dead Line" be-
yond which the people were not permit
ted to go.
Colonel Wagner also said that one of
the principal purposes of concentrating
the native people in the Philippines was
to protect them against the Ladrones
wh'c,, had been admirably accomplished
so that in many cases what was called the
Dead Line was in reality life line
It has also been established to facilitate
the collection of SUPPLIES so as to starve
our the Ladrones. The army had been
much like a blind giant. 1t was strong
enough to cope with the enemy but was
not able to see where the danger was.
The policy had been necessary to pro-
tect life and property and he did not see
how any other policy could have been
successful.
The witness said the people were fed
and given medical supplies and the sani-
tation of their camps looked after. The
American camps in the Philippines could
no more be compared to Wevler's recon-
centrado camps in Cuba than could mercy
be compared to cruelty.

IDEAL FEED FOR HOGS.


regard skim milk as valuable part
of the hog ration, worth at least 80
cents per hundred pounds, when mixed
with grain either whole or ground,
writes j. II. Crowley in the Kansas
Farmer.
That is, if dollars worth of feed
be used for hogs, 80 cents worth, or
100 pounds of skim milk, would make
the ration more valuable than if the
whole dollar was used for grain with
only water instead of skim milk. This
skim milk keeps the hog healthy, and,
therefore, thrifty, preventing consti-
patton and it's attending evils, especial
ly swine plague or hog cholera, the
dread of all farmers raising hogs. In
fact, l cannot recall a case of hog
cholera or other disease among hogs
where skim milk formed good part
of the hog ration. Ihave in mind nota-
bly, the case of one of our station
patrons who recently sold a nice,
thrifty hog on this market weighing
some 400 pounds, fed and raised wholly
on skim milk from this station, which
shows that we can make porkers equal
to the best granted and more healthy
than those fed on grain alone. If this
result of feeding skim milk can be OBJ
tanned In one instance why can it not
be obtained in many and by any
farmer.
