A Succession of Grazing Crops
For Hogs

Prof. Andrew NJ. Soule, dean and
director OF the Experiment Station at
Blacksbnrg. in writing on this subject,
says:
Any farmer can select six acre
tract OF land convenient to his barn
and divide 1t of as follows: The tract
Of land selected should be rather long
and narrow and q roadway should be
left along one side. Divide the land
into six equal areas by means OF per-
manent fences.
The hrst area should be seeded to
grass. In some sections blue grass Will
be used; In others, orchard grass; and
still others, Bermuda. The temporary
or permanent shelters for the hogs
should be- erected on this section OF
lard. These need cost very little, for
suitable shelter for a BROOD SOW an d
her litter can be built at a cost Of
SS. 90 oil $1,000
Section Two should be seeded to
sorghum as early In the spring as pos
slble. After it Is grazei down, seed to
winter oats and hairy vAtch, or erin
son clover may be used. This will
furnish some late fall aud early spring
grazing.
On section three SOW cowpeas as
early 10 the spring as possible. After
the cowpeas are grazed down, put N
crimson clov3r which will be available
early the next spring.
On section four plant Spanish
peanuts.
On section five prepare the land with
the graetest possible care, and seed al
ialia. Alfalfa will be the most desira-
bic OF all the grazing crops as 1t can be
grazed over two. or three times during
7 a single season, and will remain on
the land for several years, il well
established.
Section six may be devoted to ar
tlchokes to furnish feed through the
late fall and winter.
Some grain should be fed to
the hogs on grazing crops-one to
three pounds per day depending on
the age and size of the animal. An ear
OF two OF corn will often be all that is
necessary. By using grazing crops
the corn can be made to 20 much
further and better quality OF pork
obtained at lower cost per pound.
Hogs kept on grazing crops are under
the very best sanitary condition. The
plan suggested will provide grazing
for 25 or so hogs depending on the
character of the land and the crop
| season.

MARTIN FOR THIRD TERM

The Legislature Of ! Virginia
yesterday reelected Thomas S.
Martin to the United States Senate
for another term Of six years. HIS
new term will begin March 4, 1907.
The action of the Legislature was
in obedience TO the wishes OF the
people of Virginia, as expressed at
the polls last fall, when Senator
Martln was named as their choice
over the brilliant Governor Mon
tague, whose laudable &m6ition
was to step from gubernatioriai
to senatorial honors. The people
SPOKE overwhelmingly in favor OF
Senator Martin, and, the Legisla-
ture simply went through the form
of confirming the peoples choice
That Senator Martin has made a
good representative is conceded by
all, Democrats and Republicans
alike. He has looked after the
business interests of his con-
stituents in remarkably prompt
manner, and it has been his boast
that he serves friend and opponent
with equal fidelity. When first
elected to the United States Senate
over General Fitzhugh Lee in 1894,
Senator Martin was comparative
ly unknown to q large number OF
virginians. He has grown on the
PEOPLE, however, and in the heated
campaign Of last summer and fall
he won many supporters by his
manly and dignified bearing, and
by his splendid record in the SEN
ate.
A hurried caucus was held by the
Republicans, and Congressman
Slemp was voted for in. opposition
to Senator Martin by the five Re-
publicans In the Senate and twelve
in the House, -tt

Matrimony on Decline?

The matrimonial market in
Rockbridge during the year 1905
wac not as brisk as the preceding
year, as shown by fewer marriage
licenses being issued from the
County Clerks Office in Lexington.
Whether or not this is due to the
hssitancy of the presiding genius
to "take his own medicine" is an
open question.
There we're I4O licenses issued
during the year to whites, against
1877 the year previous; and % to
cclored, against % the year before.
May and July were the dullest
monthe, each being credited with
five Licenses while November and
December had to their credit II
and 81, respectively. There were
Ave divorces granted in 1905.

To Make Hens Lay

The greatest egg producer has been
discovered by John Miller and Omer
Fravel, says the Toms Brook writer
In the Winchester News Item. 1t y an
electric current arranged 80 as to shock
the chickens. Theirinventlon Is board
netted with wire and connected to an
electric battery.
Feed for the fowls is scattered there
on and when the board Is filled the
electricity is turned on, and Its work
ing is magical. As soon as the shock
comes the chickens fly In every direc-
tIon and come OF hem even drop eggs
In flying through the air.
The hens before being experimental
upon were only laying eriodicaiiy
while now they are producing most
regularly.

sWANsON's AMBITION

There has been much specula-
ton as the to the future ambitions
of Governor elect Claude A. Swan
son, and the assertion has been
frequently made that he has It in
mind to run for the United States
Senate to succeed Senator John
w. Daniel. Mr.SwansOn, however,
has always denied that he intended
seeking future hohors at the hands
Of the people of Virginia.
"The ambition Of my life has
been to become Governor of Vir-
Qinia," he has recently said. IL
have gratified that ambition after
much hard work, and am going to
try to make the very best Cover
nor Virginia ever had. / may not
succeed but my friends will know,
and will.havs the satisfaction OF
knowing that tried"

Winter Gives Way to Spring

A good-sized slice of spring
weather was served up to the resi-
dents of our community last Sun
day, when the temperature caused
the thermometer to register way
I'D in thu sixties. OvereOats and
wraps were discarded and the
fitful succession Of cloud and
sunshine were gentle reminders Of
uncertain and coy April weather.
All through Monday and Tuesday
the sticky weather made fires I'M
comfortable, and the Thermometer
continually lowered between so
and 65 degrees.
The unusually mild spell in mid
January has no counterpart in
past years so far as he memory OF
the coolest inhabitant" can re-
call, and the present winter is
unique and a record breaker. The
balmy days lead one to think that
the "good Old smmertime" is not
far distant.
Notwithstanding the unusually
mild weather for the past few days
az cold wave was predicted to
reach this region yesterday, and
last night the weather man "made
good" the reorganization. This
morning the thermometer register
ed 80 degrees, and some little ice
was fol med.
