MOORE ON
HOG INDUSTRY
Idaho Particularly Adapted
For Their Successful
Raising

Superintendent Prem Moore Of the
Idaho experiment station at Moscow
has contributed the following inter-
esting paper on hog feeding In Idaho
to the Gem State Rural
1.-THE great demand for pork pro-
duct and the remarkably good price
paid for hogs should wake up the Pa
louise farmer to the fact that this In
dustry would add greatly to his reve-
nue.. BY converting wheat into pork
he can receive from 80 to 80 cents per
bushel for his grain and have no sacks
to buy. The first thing necessary is
to breed hogs best adapted to the To-
cality Breed for spring pigs that
they may get the benefit of the spring
pasture. While the pigs are small
fix trough in a dry shed where the
old hogs will not bother them. Keep
chopped wheat so the pigs can eat
when they wish.

they are running with the SOW and they
will grow very rapidly. After wean-
ing feed the pigs as before until the
pasture gets better and the pigs get
well started. Then the chopped wheat
may gradually be reduced
How to Feed Pigs.
The growth of the pigs can be great
ly increased by contriving a light feed
of the wheat. Plenty of fresh water
and good shade through the warm
weather should be provided. After har-
vest the hogs may be turned on the
stubble field to pick up the grain left
by the machine. This will all be clear
profit.
When the stubble is cleared up the
hogs are then brought to the feeding
pens to finish. To get the best results
hogs require we'll sheltered feeding
floor, with plenty of light, and asmal'
lot outside for exercise.
Before hogs are placed on feed they
should be perfectly clean Dipping IS
good plan. Then the animal is lr
condition to convert every bit of food
into gain.
Hogs should not be fed too much

News From Idaho and Washington

This cannot be done without quite
a loss to the producer as the best re-
suits are those which bring quickest
returns, and no other animal brings
so quick returns all told as the pig,
when rightly managed.
Cause Of Many Failures.
1t has been said that hogs cannot be
raised with profit in Idaho, and why ?
Simply because they have been mis-
managed.
No man can successfully and profit
ably rear hogs and keep them in close
confinement on a grain ration only,
as I learn has been the custom here.
But let the farmers enclose q pasture
of one or more acres of god alfalfa,
with plenty Of water, ana q good stock
of hogs. the experiment win prove a
valuable lesson to them.
The cost Of raising pigs after the
manner described above is merely
nominal The only cost apparent is
from the time the pig is penned for
fattening, which vii be about two
months, at which time eight bushels
of ground feed is used, which at har-
vest time is worth from 80 cents to
81 per hundred pounds.
Hog Raising and Dairying.
The pigs are fed the bi-products OF
the dairy. which to- them is worth
about Is cents per hundred pounds, and
which otherwise would be waste.
Judging from the above the results
should be just as satisfactory in Idaho
as in any other locality.
1t needs no keen prophetic eye to
clearly discern in the not far distant
future that the great leading indus
try of the irrigated sections of Idaho
mus of necessity be the dairy: when
with the hog as an indispensable ad-
tjuncet the yet uncultivated thousands
of acres will TEEN with life and pro-
ductivity.
Who shall dare foretell the untold
millions of wealth that shall be borr
therefrom? Then will the star of Idaho
shine a gem resplenent in the galaxy
of stars that stud this great and glori.
GUS republic.

WORDS WHICH MEAN NOTHING.
Woman Criticixes CommonpIaces Used
 in Polite Society.

We have many commonplaces in so-called polite intercourse" said a woman who does bit of thinking for herself, and one of the most meaning less of them. to my mind, is the ex- pression frequently heard; Now, be sure to call upon me if can do any thing for you 1 say, meaningless, because, when 1t is said, it ought to mean great deal, and, as a matter of fact, in the great majority of cases. it doesn't mean anything at all. It's instructive, though rather disheart- ening, to take people who give this sort of invitation at their word, and see the surprise upon their faces. They can do something for you, you have decided and, therefore, you bring the matter to their notice. It may be an introduction, a loan of book, or the doing of an errand. You are, indeed, made to feel that it is more blessed to give than to receive. No one likes to be a suppliant, you know. and it is even worse to be made to realize that you are a sup plant
 I'd prefer to have an out and out refusal without explanation, of request which I had felt privileged to make, than a grudging consent given with the very evident air of confer ring favor, Oh! I don't get caught very many times in this way, as I grow older, but occasionally I do, and it's because l think a good many oth- CTS do. as we'll, that I'm freeing my mind. What l plead for is a little more sincerity in conversatios- cially when the lack of it is likely to lead to embarrassiP 'tuations."

MADE CHANGE IN FORMULA.
Judge Was AIways Perfectly Willing
 to Obiiqe a Lady.

A young woman whose father had been one of Judge Kelleys political lieutenants, once applied to him for position, which he promised to get for her the next day. The judge was busy, and the following day when the young woman called he had forgotten all about her case; but upon being reminded. apologized profusely and told her to call tomorrow
 The next day the young woman again appeared. but the judge had again forgotten and said Please call tomorrow" This kept up for several weeks, and the girl was get ting tired of it. The next time she called. the judge walked hurriedly into the room and began the same old formula:
 My dear young lady, you will have to call tomorrow. as am very busy today"
 But, judge" said the girl that is what you have told me every time l have come every day, and you have always said to come tomorrow
 Il beg your pardon" said Kelley with great smoothness. Call day after tomorrow. Sunday Magazine.
