BRITISH ELECTORS
UPHOLD LIBERALS
Returns Indicate That New
Parliament Will Be Prac=
ticaIIy Like the Last

LONDON. Dec Sat the close of the
polling today in the general elections,
the standing of the parties is as fol-
lows:
Government coalition - Liberals 147,
laborites 2S. nationalists As, independ-
ent nationalists 6. Total 226.
Observation-Disclosures 1913.
The fifth day of the elections ended
with the parties still running neck
and neck and with the prospect that
they will come under the wire in al
most precisely the same relative posi-
ton they held at the start. Returns
had been received UP to midnight from
the voting for 419 members, and the
result is a unionist gain Of two seats
in that number over those held by
that party, in the last parliament.
BOTH PARTIES DISAPPOINTED
Both parties went into the election
predicting great gains. Both are now
convinced that the new house of com
mons viii be practically identical with
the old.
The conservatives argue that Premier
Asquith's bid for a sweeping indorse-
ment from the country has not been
obtained therefore he cannot be justi-
fed in fastening upon the nation such
radical changes as home rule and the
disarming of the house of lords.
The coalitionists insist that the voters
by returning them to power indorse
their policies and direct them to carry
out their program in its entirety.
Forty-four seats were balloted for to-
day. The liberals gained Radnorshire
and Bedford, while the unionists gained
Eskdale. The contests were close nearly

SORGHUM FOR HOGS.

The Alabama experiment station
finds that sorghum pasture for fatten-
ing hogs has very little TO recommend
il. When used with corn, it gave bet
ter gains than corn alone, but the
gains were not profitable when the
sorghum was cut and carried to the
hogs: they made better gains when
allowed to Craze. Excellent gains were
made when the juice was extracted
and fed. but for this purose the Juice
was worth but Is cents gallon The
expense of extracting the juice prohib-
it's its use In every case. sorghum
was much inferior to the legumes, and
since it left the land poorer, its use
for hogs was discouraged where le
gumes could be grown.-Farm and
Ranch.

He then goes on and cites incidents
where even on large. acreages, such
as 12O acres, the production today
has been as high, as 10000 barrels
per acre, and the'land' still producing
heavily.
The investor with sufficient Judg-
ment to see these great possibilities,
and the optimism, (which generates
nerve to back this Judgment, will be
literally swept to fortune on this grea
flood of oil which flows through the
proven fields of California. The OPP
timism and courage of the pioner
oil men of California have made them
milIionaires. They learned the truth
of that great saying: Zone good
investment is worth a lifetime of Ia
bor." What optimism and oil have
done for others. they will do for you,
for really only the surface of the pos
sibilities of California oil have been
scraped There are today numerous
new companies just starting to de-
velop their land, in which stock can
be bought at extremely low figures.
Within two years We will undoubtedly
find the stock of the great majority
of these companies listed on the. stock
exchanges, and paying the same kind
of generous dividends that so many
of the other companies are now pay
ing after perhaps only two years of
operation.
