TWO GOOD LITTERS
OF PIGS A YEAR
Where This Is Accomplished Is Compare
lively SmaII-Some Good Points About
HoSs-By e. T. Robbins.

A mature SOW can raise two filters
as successfully as one, and with no
extra feed save that required for nour-
ishing the second litter. Where only
one litter of pigs is raised yearly from
mature sows, it is difficult to keep
them contented during the summer
and fall unless they are fed so heavi-
ly as to become too fat
An old SOW which has raised litter
of March pigs and is bred again for
September, will keep in good, thrifty
condition during the summer on
clover pasture alone, says Orange
Judd Farmer. II she is sucked down
thin in the spring, because she was
insufficiently fed at that time, she
needs but little grain during the sum-
mer on good pasture to put her in fine
condition again. One litter is enough
for SOW in her first year. In her
second year and thereafter she is not

the pigs get as much growth as pos

necessary to have the spring pigs
come in March. OF course pigs need
good shelter and careful attention at
that time, but one can better afford
time TO care for them in March before
field work is we'll under way, than tc
take half as much time to devote to
the young things in April, when plow

ing.
The fall pigs will need less care at

Saginaw Valley Isolated.

The attempt of Saginaw valley bust

freight rates from the Atlantic coast,
has been turned down by the inter

The commission holds that investi-
cation fails to reveal discrimination
against Flint, Saginaw and other
points in the valley The Saginaw val
ley lies well to the south of the
through lines between Chicago and
New York, which Detroit and Toledo
get the benefit of. This comparative

Iron Mining Booming.

There has been a steady increase
In the shipments of ore during the
past month or six weeks, and there
will be an exceptionally heavy move
ment during the last two or three
months of the season. The Jones &
Laughlins Co., one of the largest Of
the Independent concerns, has notf
fed its mining department that ap-
proximately 100000 tons of ore will
be needed this season. Last year the
company's five producing mines
shipped less than 100000 tons to
Pittsburg.
The mining companies now want
all their men to put in full time, as
ii is important that the shipments
from the pockets be not interrupted.
The ore movement from the stock
piles on the Marquette range is
heavier now than at any previous
time this season and the tonnage
being shipped direct from the pockets
is also much greater.

State senate's First Catholic Chap

Holding the dignified position of
chaplain of the senate, Father Henry
H. Wyman, rector of Old st. Mary 8
church in San Francisco, one one of
the most honored and beloved of the
Catholic clergy in California, is the
| first preacher of his faith to be dis
| tinguished by election to that office in
all the sixty odd years that California
has known legislatures.
The honor came to Father Wyman
unsought and almost unthought of.
surprising him, when his mind was
| deeply engrossed in matters directly
concerning his beloved church Some
one had spoken to him about allowing
his name to appear as a candidate. Not
long afterwards he received a tele-
gram from Senator Wolfe informing
him that he had been chosen for the
chaplaincy. His friends had been at
work in his behalf.
Father Wyman has been rector of
Old st. Mary's church on California
street, San Francisco The church is
being rebuilt now. after having been
destroyed by the earthquake. under
the venerable rector's direction
AS Paulist Father Wymans labors
are directed principally to missionary
work. and his travels have taken him
all up and down the Pacific coast,
from Seattle to San Diego Several
years ago he conducted a series of
meetings in Sacramento that were
quite successful.
Now 60 years of age, Father Wyman'
has been a shepherd in the Catholic
church since he reached young man
hood. OF Puritan stock whose ances-
tors arrived in Massachusetts early in
the year 1853 he was born and reared
a Congregationalist in the town of
Westminster in Massachusetts, which
was also the birthplace and early
home of General Nelson A. Miles. whom
he distinctly remembers as a school
mate.
After passing through the public
schools, Father Wyman entered Brown
university and was graduated in 1871
At the end of five years he had become
converted to the Roman Catholic re-
ligion. After serving nineteen years
in missionary wok he was assigned to
st. Mary's church.
Father Wyman has attained to some
distinction in the field of letters, hav-
ing written, among other things, book
bearing the title Certainty in Re-
ligion.''
Nobody has been found who can say
offhand if the assembly has ever had
Roman Catholic chaplain in It's his
tory. Grove L. Johnson says it hasn't
within his memory, and Sergeant-at-
Arms Stafford can't remember any
Sacramento Bee.
