Money In Hogs

W. J. Townley, hog raiser in Union,
Oregon, has demonstrated by feeding ex.
periments that he can secure $42 05
worth of pork by feeding 1856 worth
of feed. He selected six hogs of about
equal possibilities for the experiment,
separated them into three pens of two
each, and weighed at the end Of each
week, giving each pen separate classes
of feed To the first pen he fed a mix
ture of two parts shorts and one part
bran for period of 90 days. To the
second he fed chopped wheat for 40 days.
To the third pen he fed mixture of
shorts, chopped wheat and bran to the
ratio of 10 to Z to 8. The summary
showed that the six hogs consumed
1929 pounds of various kinds OF feed
during the experiments. The aggre-
gate cost of this feed at current prices
was s2s.66. The gain in pork was 647
pounds, which at $3.50 per hundred
weight was s42 05.
Mr.. Townley claims that each bushel
of clean, milling wheat fed these hogs
produced $1.l0 worth of pork, besides
increasing the value OF the original car
cass 81 hundredweight.

o1the National banks in the United
States entitled to place in the "Roll
OF Honor" distinction given them be-
cause OF their surplus and undivided
profits being greater than their capital
stock. In the United States are about
1850 National banks, and of this num-
Der only 500 get mention in the class
known as the Roll OF Honor. Both the
First National bank and the Yakima

this prominence in the financial world
which speaks volumes for the manage
ment and standing of these worthy in
situations of which our city is so proud.
