PROFIT IN RAPID GROWTH.
Some Reasons Why Early Spring
Pigs Should Be Marketed in
October or November.

1t is claimed by the Indiana expert
ment station that for pigs narrowed
in March, April, or May, October and
November is the proper time for prof
itably converting them into pork. It is
late enough to usually avoid the severe
weather Of the season, and enables
them to be grown during the summer
season and fattened before the winter
sets in.
1t offers an opportunity to have the
pigs do their growing during that sea-
son of the year when grass or pasture
is in condition to be used. They can
actually be reared at less cost than
during any other period Of the year. 1t
is possible to plant green spring crops
that will furnish cheap feed for the
filters and sows, and do much towards
promoting the development of bone
and flesh. From experience of feeders
at the experiment stations, the pig in
creases with greatest profit until six or
seven months old, when it has reached
the maximum. After that the gains
require a larger amount of grain to
produce a given amount Of pork, and
they should be fattened and disposed
of.
One bushel of corn made 1879 pounds
of pork at six months old, at seven
months old one bushel made 1872
pounds, and at eight months old, one
bushel made 1876 pounds. While there
are varying conditions that have their
influence upon the amount of gain
made, it is a general principle that
after six or seven months the amount
of grain from a bushel of corn is on a
decreasing scale. These gains do not
come up to the ones that have been
secured by individuals. 1t may have
been partially in the quality OF the
pigs, as there is great deal in the
characteristics of the animals. We
know farmers who have sows and
boars that can scarcely feed little
enough to keep them from getting too
fat. They have such propensity OF
assimilation which is out of all pro-
portion compared with others.-Mid-
land Farmer.

The experiments made by the Agri
cultural Department with the Guaternalar
ant as destroyer of the boil weevil have
proven successful, the ant killing the
weevil but not injuring the cotton. The
growers have been awaiting the report o.
the Department on the experiments with
interest, as the weevil has undoubtedly
caused more damage to the crop than al
other agencies of loss, ii being most de
structiye enemy to the plant. The plant
ers are still very skeptical as they doub,
that the ants can be propagated in suf-
ficient numbers to cover the large acreage
of cotton, or that they will be able to sur.
vive the mild winters of the South even
These are matters, which the Department,
will determine by further experiment,
the success of which means SO much tc

FRIDAY, AUGUST s, 1904.

That both old parties are unit on the
money question and are satisfied for the
banks to continue to run the finances Of
the government without hinderance,
there is no room for doubt. The repub
lican platform declares for the gold
standard, while the democrats are silent
on the subject but have candidate who
made himself solid with Wall street by
his gold-plated telegram. Whichever
party is successful the banks will Icon
tinue to issue the paper money and draw
on the United States Treasurer whenever
there is money stringency. No such
thing as government banks, where the
borrower would receive the benefit of a
low rate of interest and any profit accruine
from the use of the money in the u. S.
Treasurer's hands would go to the whole
people, aud not a few bankers only,
will ever be as long as Wall street is per.
mitted to run the government.

Editor Haddaway Dead.

George L. Haddaway, editor Of
the Easton Ledger, died at the
Hotel Avon, Easton, on Friday.
He had been in feeble health for
several years, but had been confin-
ed to his bed but two weeks. The
immediate cause of his death was
general debility and brain trouble.
Mr.. Haddaway was born in Broad
Creek Neck, near Long Point, Tai
bot county, on December Is, 1912,
and was the son of William Had
daway. In early manhood he
taught school in Broad Creek Neck
and st. Michaels. While in st.
Michaels he purchased the st.
Michaels Comet and became its
editor. In 1882 he purchased the
Easton Ledger of Julius A. John
son and shortly afterward removed
to Easton, where he has resided
ever since. Mr.. Haddaway was
for six years, from 1873 to 1883,
collector of taxes for Talbot county,
and during the first term of Presi.
dent Cleveland he, was deputy col
ector of internal revenue for the
Eastern Shore district.
Mr.. Haddaway is survived by a
widow, who was Miss Annie Faith
full, of Queen Anne's county, and
one son, Rochester Haddaway, now
living at Fort Worth, Tex. A
second son, Arthur f. Haddaway,
who was connected with his father
in the management of the paper,
died several years ago.

democratic champion created sensation,
as well as scandal, by getting so drunk
he was compelled to hang to post while
attempting to speak in the joint debate.
