~ l The yaius sof corn for pork produc- i
ton was hong since recognized; outs
changes in economic conditions have 4
Increased the price Of corn during the \
past few years and made 1t necessary
for the farmer to consider what gratn
crops he can, grow or feed ass sub
.stitute for portion Of the corn 70 a.
to cheaper the cost OF production ana
1t the same time improve the quality
Of the pork, writes John r. Fain, o
the Tennessee experiment station. Ths5
cheapness Of corn In the past has - one
sense been 8 detriment to the progress q
swine husbandry; 1t has encouraged .
too general use of this cereal for the de-
yelopment OF the choicest quality q
breeding animals. When corn wa1
very cheap It was . common practice
to shut the hogs up in q filthy pen
and feed them an unlimited quantity
without regard to cost. This made
fat hogs Of what IL generally known
as the lard type" Close confinement
and heavy. feeding impaired the stam-
ina and vigor of the animals and UNI
doubtedly resulted In undermining the
constitution of the brood SOW. and this
with the unsanitary, quarters caused the
destruction Of large numbers Of hogs
by the dreaded cholera. ss,'ss
Hog breeders now realize that a.
open range with n grass and forage
crops IL = desideratum Of the greatest
Importance to them. Under such COM
ditions superior quality Of pork e
obtained with 4 better admixture q
fat and lean. Al can be easily under
stood from these facts and many 9TH
ers which might be adduced, ,condi-
tons with regard to swine feeding have
materially changed. Hence 1t becomes
necessary to determine what grains may
be substituted to advantage for q part q
the corn formerly fed and to utilize fully
such by-products of the farm as slopa
and skim milk, which were frequently
allowed to 60 to waste, but which arr
now known to have q high feedini
value. r.

MISSING CHILD'S BODY

Josephine McCahill. who has been

that the body was placed there with
In c day or two. An examination OF the
body disclosed that 1t was badly ce-
composed, but that ii had not been
mutilated. IL has been learned that
children OF the neighborhood have
been accustomed to hide In the chin
neys while at play on the roofs and
the police now believe that the Nc
Cahill girl might have climbed onto
the chimney and fallen into It.
Twice before the body was found.
well-dressed young woman called AT
the McCahill home and said that she
had a presentiment that the child
would be found In the chimney. On
her second visit she expressed sur
prise that a search OF the chimney
had not been mado on her previous
suggestion. She refused to give her
name or address and the police are
now trying TO find her. 1t was after
her second visit that the investiga-
ton was made which resulted In tho
finding OF the body.
After leaving her home on May 2
to play In the street the child was
seen in Third avenue with a man. Do
scribed as tall and dark. She had a
bag of candy in her hand. but was
crying. That is all the police have
had to work on. Their search had
proceeded on the belief that the man
was an Italian and that the girl would
eventually be found in one OF the Ital-
ian colonies In this or some nearby
city.
