HEAVY HOGS.


A few years ago there was a demand
for heavy lard hOgS. Now the ten
dency is towards smootb, even hogs Of
medium weight of from 225 to $50
pounds Of early maturity. Hogs Of
this weight should be free Of surplus
fat, possess smooth shoulders, we'll laid
in with the line OF the bndy, hams
moderately heavy, firm flesh with
fianks we'll down so rs TO furnish large
development OF belly meat. The hack
should be Of good length, width and
smooth, showing an absence Of large
patches Of fat above the hams. The
best cuts Of the hog are taken from the
back, lOin and sides, hence the impor.
lance Of good length and sides are
desirable. The careful breeder Of pure
bred swine keeps informed on just such
points and aims to produce the market
demand. The scrub hog has no place
on the farm and since the packer
and his trade have called for a GER
tain type Of hog, it stands the hog
raiser we'll in hand to meet the demand
through careful breeding and feeding.
Medium weight hogs, through the de-
mands Of trade, have disposed OF the
old time 800 or 900 pound lard hog -
The Stockman.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Sailing or
ders are now in preparation for the
third division of the second squadron
OF the North Atlantic fleet, which. in
command of Admiral Charles D. Sigs-
bee, is about to sail from Tompkins-
vile on long cruise in foreign waters.
The squadron has been ready for sea
for several weeks, but it's departure
has been delayed because of the dis
order In the southern part of Russia,
and the interna tional naval demonstra-
tion in Turkish waters, the govern
ment, 1t is said. wishing to avoid any
move that might be interpreted as af-
fecting either situation.
The state department now regards
the Mediterranean situation as war
ranting the appearance of the Ameri-
can warships in a friendly cruise. 1t
has been more than a year since n
division of battleships, in command of
Rear Admiral A. S. Barker cruised
in the Mediterranean, and it was de-
cided last summer that the flag should
be known there at the first opportu-
nifty by squadron of cruisers.
Besides the armored cruiser Brook
1yn, Admiral Sigsbee's flagship, the
squadron consists of the protected
cruisers Chattanooga, Commander
Alexander Sharp; Galveston, Com
mander VIM. G. Cutler, and Tacoma,
Commander Reginald f. Nicholson.
After a cruise in the Mediterranean
and a number of points the squadron
will then separate, the Chattanooga.
and Galveston taking leave of the
flagship and going to the Asiatic sta
tion.. With the Brooklyn and Tacoma,
Admiral Sigsbee will continue his
cruise down the east coast of Africa.

cape of Good Hope and crossing to the
east coast of South America, visit
ing the larger ports there.
Admiral Sigsbee's squadron will re-
turn to home waters in the late spring
or early summer of next year, when he

CHICAGO. Dec, 16.--Dreyer's convic-
tion ana sentence to the penitentiary
followed the failure of the National
bank of Illinois and the firm of Il. S.
Dreyer g. Co. Dreyer who was treas
urer of the West park board, had de-
posted more than 100000 of park funds
in his bank and large part of this
money. it was claimed, had been un-
lawfully transferred to the account of
f. S. Dreyer & Co., and used in real
estate deals.
The Indictment of Dreyer was fol-
lowed by one of the hardest fought
legal battles in the history of law. The
case was carried to the supreme court
of the United States and every resource
that lawyers could suggest was used
TO keep Dreyer from going to the peni-
tentiary. After his conviction he was
confined in the Jail in this city for
thirty-two months while his case was
being fought in the courts. He has
been confined in the penltentiary since
1892.

R0UVIER'S DECLARATION
Premier Says France Has No Desire
to Attack the Sultan's
Sovereignty
BY Associated Fress.

PARIS, Dec. 16.--The chamber of
deputies was crowded today in expec-
tation of a debate on the governments
foreign policy. Intense interest is man
ifested i'll the formal declaration from
Premier Rouvier concerning Morocco.
This, following Chancellor Won Bue-
lows statement. in the German Reich
stag, is in the nature of an answer and
an announcement of the governments
position. M. Rouvier's declaration
proved very moderate. He concisely
explained the desires of France in
Morocco, saying:
I'VE never dreamed of attacking the
sultan's sovereignty. 1t is our special
position which we maintained and
which now will be presented at the con-
ference. This is based upon the geo.
graphical contiguity of Algiers and
France. We desire liberal regime
in Morocco assuring equal treatment
for all powers. France merely wishes
to conscientiously safeguard her rights
and retain the full exercise of her lib
erty."
The premier's declaration was en-
Enthusiastically received.
Former Premier Ribo, leader of the
opposition, declared that all parties
should unite in sustaining the govern
ment and thereupon further discus
sion was postponed by the decisive
vote of 500 to so, which was inter
preted as being parliamentary ap-
proval of NJ. Rouvier's statement.

LONDON, Dec. 16.--According to the
st. Petersburg correspondent Of the
Fremdenblatt, Count Witte said one
day this week:
"The emperor is truly a kind and
worthy man, clean in his life, unsel-
fish and earnestly laboring for Rus
sia's welfare. But some of his kins-
men are among the worst men in Eu-
rope and the emperor knows it.
How could / advise my sovereign,
himself humane and just. to lay the
whips of the Cossaclks across the faces
of the men and the backs of the wo-
men whose economic collapse is trace
able to the grand ducal libertines, liars,
thieves and degenerates? / might ad-
wise him what to do with these
wretches If he asked me. but the af-
fairs of the imperial family are not
within the range of my Office"
The correspondent adds that Witte
spoke with blending of bitterness and
sorrow. In all the present turmoil,
Witte seems to be the only statesman
who keeps his head. He braces him
self with a truly ma agnificent heroism
to stem the tide of the financial panic
which seems about to flood the coun-
try with bankruptcy. M. Jaures COM
pares him to Mirabeau, in that he Is
the Last bulwarlk of the monarchy"

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SANTA BARBARA, Dec. 1.-THE
counties committee of the California
promotion committee passed an i'm
portant resolution this afternoon asking
congress to carry out the following
recommendations for federal aid for
California:
I'VE recommend increased ap-
preparations to be expended in conduct
ing exhaustive surveys for the purpose
OF determining what waters within the
state are available for federal control
and distribution; liberal and continu-
ing appropriations for the improve
ment and maintenance of the neviga-
bility of the rivers and harbors of our
coast and for the construction of such
breakwaters, light houses, quarantine
stations and Notifications as may be
advantageous An early determination
or the International rights on the
Colorado river and the solution with ali
practicable speed of the engineering
problems of that stream, to the end
that all homes already established may
be safeguared; appropriations for the
purpose of enabling the agricultural de-
partment to maintain a large corps of
experts in the exploitation of the possi-
bilities of California agriculture, viii
culture and horticulture; the establish
ment Of experimental stations.
1--WE strongly advocate the final con-
summation of the recession of the Yose-
mite valley and the Mariposa big tree
grove to the government and the unit
ing of those two areas with the federal
reserve now known as the Yosemite
National park. We recommend the
prompt purchase of the Calaveras big
tree grove as an addition to the Ma
tional park area.
1--WE recommend the temporary with
drawal of the territory known as the
Einnacles i'll San Benito county and
that this territory be added to the Ma
tional park system.
I'VE urge active support of the forest
reserve policy, especially by more ade-
quate provision for the maintenance,
improvement and extension of the re-
serves.
1--WE recommend the policy of the
forest service in raising a revenue for
this purpose by selling matured timber
and charging a moderate fee for the
use of the range, but believe this should
be supplemented by more liberal cow
gressional appropriations. For tile
same purpose and to facilitate the de-
velopment of timber consuming in
dustres we advise the repeal of that
section of the statutes which imposes
processes of advertisement in forest
reserve timber sales in California
which are not required in other states.
We also urge greater activity in re-
planting denuded areas and the acquisi-
tion of private property where 1t is
necessary to the highest usefulness of
the reserves"
Speakers this afternoon were: Gov
ernor Pardee, Il. w. Holland of Sonora,
Frank K Mott, mayor Of Oakland; l..
w. Jefferson of Hollister and e. #.
Thomas of Santa. Barbara. The COM
mittee adjourned until June 16.
