EXPERIMENTS IN HOG RAISING.

A ColfaX dispatch says:
Efforts TO encourage the hog indus

Judson. industrial agent of the Oregon
.ailroad & Navigation company who
IS now here in the interest Of the cold
storage plant which COlfaX citizens are

siastic in advocating diversity of

out a statement which he said should
Re in the hands Of every farmer who
8 interested in lettering the cOndi-
ton of the country.
He declared that eastern Washing
on and Oregon are natural fields for
he production of pork and that it
an be produced at a cost less than
hat in the corn growing states. He
advocated experiments along the line
II hog feeding, and gave a number of
instances of pork brought to his notice
while at work in the various sections
f the Inland Empire, through which
le is constantly travelling. He gave
out the following statement on this
subject:
"Kiddle Bros, the extensive live
stock shippers and feeders of Island
City, Or, are now feeding about 1000
head of hogs, and Mr.. Riddle says
they are producing one pound of FORK
with three pounds of wheat. W,
hogs al cents per pounI live weight,
Mr.. Riddle says they get S1.lO bushel
Tor their wheat when fed to hogs.
They now have 4SO head of hogs
weighing from 230 to 300 pounds each,
II in 81 IF Hvo
acres of alfalfa They feed these hogs
a small amount of millfeed and have
lot of them constantly ready for
market. They have had this number
Of hogs and pigs in this small field
since April l, yet will cut three tons
| of hay per acre from the field. A new
lot Of hogs are put in the field when
one lot is shipped out. This firm ships
to both Portland and Omaha.
Maj. Townley, of Union, Or, who
| is an extensive ShorthOrn breeder and
grain farmer, says that he has been
| making a series of experiments during
| the past winter in feeding hogs and
! has been able to produce one pound of
! pork from three pounds of wheat, and
| that at the present price of pork he
can realize from 81 to $1.10 per bushel
| for his wheat when fed to hogs. In
some Of the tests made a pound Of
pork was produced with less than
three pounds Of wheat fed. He now
| has on hand about 23O0 bushels Of last
years wheat which he expects 10
market by feeding to hogs and selling
| the hogs.
Prof. H. T. French, of the Univer-
sity Of Idaho, who was formerly pro-
fessor of agriculture in the Oregon
| agricultural college, told me that he
made a number of tests and expert
| ments while with the latter institu-
! ton, and found that he could produce
pound of pork with three pounds
of wheat fed to hogs. 1t seems to me
that when such good authority as
| these men say this can be done it will
pay the farmers of the Palouse ccun-
try to Investigate and see if they can
| not improve on their present methods
and produce more pork, for the de-
mand in the Northwest is constantly
increasing at more rapid rate than
is the production Of this necessary
| staple"

SHORT IN ACCOUNTS.

Baker City, Or.-AbOut a week ago
the travelling auditor of the 0. r. &
N. came to Baker City and checked
up tie accounts OF the station. It
was known at the start that Cashier
George w. Breaw was short, and be
was dismissed from the service of the
company, although he assisted the
auditor in checking the station.
Two or three days ago Mr.. Breaw
left the city, and yet there is nothing
to show that he went away on account
of his shortage. The exact amount
of the shortage is not known, but 1t
understood to be less than 5000, al
though Agent Hallock does not care
to talk about the matter until the
return Of Sheriff Brown, who went in
search of the young man. Breaw was

WIFE ON THE STAND.
Mrs. Douglass Accuses Her Husband
Of Cruelty.

VI SfuCIlJ.
Seattle.-The attorneys in the
Douglass divorce case, On trial before
Judge Tallman, consumed Thursday
morning in wrangling over the admis-
sion Of the deposition OF Rev. Hugh
W. Gilchrist, who testifies that Mrs.
Douglass admitted to him infidelity.
The defense argued that it should not
be admitted as testimony because it
had been cOnfided to the pastor in his
professional capacity, and was there
fore of a privileged character. Judge
Tallman ended the controversy by adj
hitting only that part Of the depOsi
ton which related to the conversation
in Mr.. Gilchrist's room between him
self and Mr.. and Mrs. Douglass.
Mrs. Harriet Douglass, mother OF
the plaintiff also occupied the stand for
a short time She alleged that she
personally knew of the unseemly con-
duct on the part Of her daughterin-
law, and testified as to her own will
ingness to care for her grandchildren
should they be awarded to the care
of their father
The defendant, Mrs. Mabel Doug
lass, took the stand in the afternoon
for the defense brought out the fact
of the partial deafness of Mrs. Doug
lass, to which her attorney stated he
intended to prove that she misunder
stood the question of Rev. Mr.. Gil
christ when he asked if she was
guilty Of improper conduct, and had
| Terminated herself unknOwingly.
Mrs. Douglass also testified that he1
husband had supplied her with practi-
cally no clothing since their resi-
dence in Seattle, and that she had ben
compelled to appeal to her mother
Her husband, she said, allowed mis-
wife no money for car fare or other
necessities, except with the greatest
reluctance, and he permitted the rain
| to pour on her bed a week before re-
pairing the roof.
The defendant then denied the
| charges against her. She denied that
she had at the time made a confession
to either her husband or Mr. Gilchrist
and stated that her words. ooh. if
| hadn't told you'll expressed only re-
| greet that she had admitted to her hus
band writing certain letters, and for
which admission, she says, he threw
her to the ground and choked her

authority for the statement that since
July l, however, the withdrawal of de-
pOsits has been larger than for many
years. One reason for this rs said
to be the number of strikes that have
been on this summer; another is that
the low price Of stocks has tempted
many depOsitOrs to take their money
from saving banks where they can
get only 3 or 312 per cent and put it
into dividend paying securities.
In the near future a seven story
business house will stand on the site
of the present Boss Tweed home

old mansion that Tweed. disguised
with wig and gold spectacles, escaped
in 1878 while officers with warrants
for his arrest were watching the

one of the rear windows and made
his way to Florida. In Spain he was
recognized from one of Nast's car
toons.
