Pork production is one of the most
profitable farm industries in Georgia,
especially when conducted in connec-
ton with dairying and upon land where
plenty of cheap range, forage and root
crops can be secured. The most salable
kind of pork is that which contains u
large proportion of lean meat, as the
lard and fatty portions of the hog are
cheaper in price and troublesome to
handle, says a Georgia bulletin. The
type of hog that produces large share
of lean meat Is rapidly becoming the
most popular in America, and Is known
as the bacon type" examples of which
are tie Yorkshire and Tamworth
breeds. All the present breeds of hogs,
however, can be fed in such a manner
as to produce the same results, by
proper combination of protein or nitro
geneous feeds which produce lean meat,
and starchy or carbonaceous feeds,
which produce the fat.
There is no question that the cheap
est method Of growing pig from wean-
ing time until ready for the final fat
tening or finishing period, Is to use
good range or pasture, supplied wltE
acorns, mast or Bermuda grass, and in
addition some root Or forage crop, such
as rape, peanuts, chufas, cowpeas, arti-
chokes, potatoes and sassava, with per-
haps a small quantity of grain. But
the usual idea of stockmen, when TAX
ing up pigs weighing 125 to $50 pounds
for the purpose of hardening the flesh
and finishing for market, is to feed
them in pens almost entirely Oh a diet
o. corn for six or eight weeks. This
practice will invariably produce more
of the soft fats than by feeding upon
q properly balanced mixture.

MAN FINDS $4.95, NOT HIS OWN,
IN HIS ovERCoAT.
Will Start Bureau of Inquiry to
Locate Real Owner. Who
Made Mistake.

NEW YORK, December Fritz Nor
ris was riding uptown in trolley car.
reading his newspaper and minding his
presented to him without his knowledge
and under circumstances which have
caused him some uneasinesS.
The uneasiness also probably applies to
the donor of the money, who didn't know
he was donating. and no doubt he VIII
be delighted by the return of his funds.
Mr.. Morris is not averse to surrendering
the S4.9j under proper conditions.
Mr.. Morris was riding homeward We'd
sitting beside him apologize for offering
81 bill in payment of his fare. 1t
was the smallest money he had. The con-
ductor changed the bill
His neighbor apparently put the change
in his overcoat pocket. At least so
thought Mr. Morris until he arrived home,
when in his own overcoat pocket he dis
covered exactly S4.9J
The deduction is that the stranger made
mistake in the pockets. as $49o has
never appeared automatically in Mr.. Nor
were close together and the hand evil
IDENTIFY got in the wrong pocket.
Mr.. Morris Is an honest man and he
doesn't want to be under suspicion of be-
ing criminally nimble with his digts.
Therefore. If the loser will call at Mr..
Morris home and tell what car line he
lost the money on. the time of night and
manner he will receive the money.
MIR. Morris expects to arrange Office
hours for the claimants and Is making ar
rangements for keeping the line moving.

MIR. Ozmun did not reach Boston until
yesterday morning. and went at once to
the Hotel Bellevue. The first thing he
did was to send his trousers down to a
tailor to be pressed. Half an hour after
ward a wall of distress sounded from his
room. About that time a frightened
tailor came hurrying up the stairs. In
one hand he held the trousers: in the
other 500 in gold which had rolled out
of the pockets as he started to press
the trousers.
Mr.. OZmun said he had to buy some
thing and couldn't have delivered his
speech if he had not got his money.
