Hogs for Bacon.
hester Qnd.) Herald.

Winchester Qnd) Herald.
Prime bacon hogs can be grown as well
or better in this country than anywhere in
the world, and if there is demand for
leaner hogs they will be forthcoming. Ii
need not be expected. however. that feeders
will take the pains the Danish, English or
Canadian feeders do fussing with ground
stuffs of different sort without getting equal
compensation. The pea, rye, barley and
shorts fed hogs are calculated TO be worth
close to cents per pound more on the hoof
than corn-fed bacon hogs, and IL that is
true packers will have To make up their
minds To give at least 81 per 100 premium on
that class OF stock To get il. Peas, barley.
rye and mixed grains are as easily raised in
this country corn, but corn-feeding Is
the simplest and easiest method of hog
feeding and therefore much cheaper here
than any other kind.

PURDUE WAS GAME.
Chicago Papers Say Lafayette Team
Played Well Against Chicago.


The defeat of the Purdue eleven by Chi
cago Saturday was not as much of a sur
prise to the followers OF Purdue as it was to
Chicago. The Chicago team believed it
would score victory, and had represented
that q smaller score than 40 10 would not
be satisfactory, yet Purdue held the Ma
rooms down TO p to 0. The Purdue men, OF
course. hoped for victory, but they be-
lieved they would go down in defeat. They
fought hard to keep the score as small as
possible and they succeeded well. One of
the Chicago papers, in discussing the game.
published the following:
The Lafayette eleven played a strong
game on defense, and the fact that Chicago
scored sixteen points in the first half. only
to be held to s in the second, proves the
gameness OF the visitors. They were out
weighed by the Maroons several pounds
per man, but fought all the harder APP
parently as the game advanced.
while their defense WIS superb. how
ever. In the offense the visitors did not
show so We'll. Their backs tried the famous
Harvard tandem taught by Cults, but
started slowly, hit the line with but little
force, and were able TO gain their first
touchdown but once against the stubborn
Coach Cults said OF the game:
The Purdue team was whipped I'm the
urst nall, just as the weaker teams in the
East are defeated. But, considering the
prestige OF the stronger eleven, the Purdue
men fought well. L am satisfied with their
effort, but not with the outcome because
/ wanted the game for Purdue. III the Pur-
due team had played as well in the first as
IN the second half the score at least would
have been lower. Chicago has a good
strong football team. The Chicago back
field Is exceptionally good; yes, the whole
back field. i was impressed by that back
field Bezdek Is a particularly good full
back. and Eckersall and Schnur are un-
doubtedly brilliant"
Coach Walter c. Mccormack, Northwest
srn timekeeper. said:
I'm the first place, Chicago greatly out

the man. / believe, and even If the teams
had played the same football, Chicago

On form the Purdue team is stronger thar
the Indiana University eleven. Indiana lost
to Chicago by a score OF 80 to In a shorter
game. OF course, IL must be considered
that Indiana was not in the best of shape

One of the most difficult matters is TO

to contend with in midwinter is the freez-

AN UNBUSINESS-LIKE DEPARTMENT

AS regards the Post Office Department
in particular, the country perceives
more clearly than ever before that this
great business service ought to be com
pletely and severely reorganized on a
business basis. The public confidence
in it is shockingly undermined. The
Postmaster General, who as n cabinet
officer is one of the presidents general
advisers, is never in Office long enough
to become an expert i'll the administra-
ton of his department Thus, the bust
ness rs a whole never centers in the
hands of any strong man who under
stands it. There are four assistant
postmaster generals, among whom the
direction of the immense business of the
department is divided up in an illogical
and arbitrary way. This prevents con
centration and makes for bad manage
ment. Enormous as is the business
each assistant postmaster general has
to transact, he is seldom man of
whom the public at large has ever heard
and he seldom stays in his place long
enough to know thoroughly his own
quarter of the service, whereas it is not
considered etiquette in the department
for him to know anything about the
other three quarters. The American
postal administration, which ought to
be the best in the world because =, f the
progress, wealth, and intelligence of
our people and the large use they make
of the mail facilities is falling behind
that of almost all civilized countries
simply because the department lacks
expert administration, and because the
great private transportation interests
that absorb half the postal revenue are
much more influential at Washington
than is the public demand for better
service on business basis. From The
