IRVINGTON MERCHANTS TO

Dealers Will Give Half a Day to Their
Men Because They Can't Afford
to Do So Saturday.

For the first time in years. the Irvinston
retail dealers have come together on a
plan to give their employees a half holi-
day, and tomorrow AFTERNOON the stores,
large and small. will remain closed till
Thursday morning. This plan will be fol-
lowed out each wednesday all summer.
Competition with the city made 1t impos-
sible for the grocers and butchers 10
close Saturday afternoons and evenings;
Some of the stores in the past have tried
closing Saturday afternoons and reopening
at night, but this plan met with little
favor from the clerks, who found 100
little time to carry out any plans in the
few hours Before the reopening.
In the past the smaller stores have held
aloof from any arrangement, fearing the
loss of trade, while the larger stores
would not close unless the smaller ones
consented to do likewise.

HINTS FOR FARMERS


Brood sows should be fed differently
from those animals Intended for fat
tenIng purposes. says Professor Ken
nedy OF the Iowa station. Corn, while
an excellent feed for fattenlng hogs.
should be used In very moderate
amounts for breeding animals. IL
should not form more than one-third
OF the ration. This Is due TO the fact
that corn is fat and heat producing
feed. The ration OF the brood sow
should be OF heterogeneous nature, SO
az to have a cooling effect upon the
system. sows which have an album
dance OF exercise can Withstand more
corn feeding than those that are con-
fined TO the pens. A ration OF shorts
and oats or some gluten feed or any
other feed stun which Is fairly rich In
nitrogen VIII give good results.
Probably one OF the best rntions VIII
be mixture OF one part corn. one part
shorts and one part oats. In some In
stances bran il used instead OF shorts
for feeding OF brood sows, especially
where mature animals are kept for
breeding purposes. Oil meal, while
used to a considerable extent for breed
ing stock and for fattening hogs, must
be fed with great care 70 the brood
