An Iowa subscriber writes Wallacess
Farmer that he has q large number Of
spring pigs and quite o number OF last
years pigs left on account Of the poor
and prairie sod. and 100 acres In clover,
which he would like to save for hay.
He wishes TO know what haA been our
experience In carrying through hogs on
grass.
We would not advise carrying hogs
through exclusively on grass o the
simple reason that they can n pos
sfbly hold enough of 1t to. give them
much over g. maintenance ration. Grass
is from so toe90 per cent water. Hogs
have been carried through on our North
Platte farms exclusively on alfalfa, but
the rate of growth Is very slow. Clover
should be of about the am general
character as alfalfa. but not quite SO
good.
Hence we would advise our corre-
spoiident to take part Of his clover
meadow for a hog pasture, II possible,
and feed them some corn at the same
time. AS early as the frost was out
of the ground he should have sown
some rape, which by this time would
have been high enough to turn in on.
BY h time oats are harvesed or even
In the dough stage he can feed them
oats. and he should ave some OF the
earliest variety of corn possible In order
to carry them through.
In short, nc matter what the price OF
corn, we would feed some corn to young
hogs until corn Of this years growing
is o~btainable. 1t is only a question of
about 80 days. or 60 If oats are fed, and
a pound or two of corn per head a
| day Will not amount to very much. even
at a high price.
We called the attention Of our read
ers this spring to the possibility Of their
being short of grain during the sum-
/ N nao orr, a Nd ,rrro %hN.~o -, 49,
for 1t by sowing rape and a patch Of
early corn and utilize clover pasture.
The Missouri experiment station con-
Quoted an experiment recently to which
we have made previous reference; but
the facts ELECTED may have some bear
ing on this problem. They fed diff
ferent lost of hogs as follows: Corn
meal and middlings, corn meal and al
falfa, corn meal and clover, corn meal
and blue grass, corn meal and skim
milk. With corn meal and middlings
1T required 6.18 pounds Of grain to make
n pound of gain; with corn meal and
alfalfa, 4.01 pounds; with corn meal
n clover. 4.35 pounds; with corn meal
n blue grass, 5.31 pounds Of grain to
make a pound of gain.
These figures show the vast superior
ity of alfalfa and clover pasture in con-
nection with corn as a feed for hogs.
They show also that alfalfa is superior
to clover, but not SO much so as one
might expect. The hogs on corn meal
and middlings cost $4.07 for every 100
pounds of gain when corn was worth
40 cents a bushel and shipstuff $1S a
ton; on corn meal and alfalfa, $500;
on corn meal and clover, 1925; on corr
meal n blue grass, 1886; and on
corn meal and skimmilk, $3.50. If the
farmer can secure 100 pounds of gain
with corn meal and clover for 1925
when corn is worth 40 cents a bushel,
1t will be seen that he can afford to
pay even the present price of corn and
still make pork at a profit.

to the Fruit Distributors at Fargo

la has been warned from here Of the
increase, of which it had not been
and has joined with Yakima
and wenatchee in protest, All this
has been done by the shippers The
matter is one which affects growers
and those dependent on the growers
more than it does the shippers. but
growers have taken no action. The
Yakima Commercial club has been
asked to act in their behalf and will

Twenty Laborers Strike.

Twenty concrete laborers quit work
this afternoon on North Second street
where the George Milton Savage COM
pany has its concrete mixer in opera
ton and where concrete base for paw
ing brick is being laid says the Yaki-
ma Republic.
The strikers demand $3.50 per day
or straight pay for the time they are
laid off. They claim they are given
irregular work because sand and
gravel is furnished only at intervals.
Because of the irregular work they
have but little coming at the end OF
the week, they assert.
Superintendent Anderson refused to
pay the amount demanded or make
any concessions whatever. He told
the men to go and that he would find
plenty of men who would be glad to
work for $2.25 per day whenever they
could get the work, regardless Of its
irregularity.

IOWA WILL VOTE
DIRECT FOR SENATOR

Des Moines, Iowa, Aug. 27.-Late
last evening Governor Cummins is
sued his proclamation for the special
session of the legislature to amend
the state primary law, fixing Monday,
August 81, as the day for convening.
The proclamation sets forth the
governors reasons for convening the
leglslature-his belief that an over
whelmlng majority Of the people of
the state are in favor of expressing
their choice for United States sena-
tor in the primary election.
Nearly 1000 republicans were In
conference here today in an effort
to allay the factional strife that has
torn the party during the last few
years and which is believed to men,
ace the success Of the republican tick
ct in this state.
The feature of the occasion was
Governor Cummins' announcement
that he had decided to call special
session Of the legislature to dispose
of the senatorial matter, which since
the death of Senator Allison has
to renew the old fight.
This special session will be asked to
amend the state primary law to per-
NIT the republican voters to select
the senatorial candidate at the regu-
lar election in November, instead Of
leaving 1t to a legislative caucus.
