FEEDING HAY TO HOGS.
Alfalfa Gives Best Results, but All
Legumes Are Valuable.

| G0Hutnoo FNTc Ndlu6Dtos
At the Kansas experiment station the
writer divided number of hogs into
two equal lots and fattened one lot on
all the grain they would eat and the
other lot on all the grain and dry alfal-
ia hay they would eat.
For every 100 pounds gained by the
hogs fattened on grain alone the hogs
fed alfalfa hay and grain gained 173
pounds. The hogs showed gain of
S6S pounds of pork per ton of alfalfa
hay fed. The same weight of grain
that was worth 81 fed alone brought
$1.40 when fed with the alfalfa.
AT the Nebraska experiment station
hogs fattened on grain alone made corn
worth II cents a bushel, and when al
falfa hay was fed with the grain the
corn brought 81 per bushel.
In a careful experiment made by
Professor r. J. Kinzer at the Kansas
experiment station with fattening hogs
fed corn and alfalfa hay 100 pounds of
alfalfa hay saved ninety-si pounds of
corn, and he estimated that 1920
pounds of pork were produced from the
alfalfa hay from each acre.
Growing pigs should have constant
access to alfalfa hay whenever pas
ture cannot be furnished. 1t saves
grain. lessons the cost of feeding, fur
nishes exactly the materials needed
for developing bone, muscle and the
vital organs, makes more of the grain
digestible. stimulates the appetite and
keeps the bowels active.
Alfalfa is much the best hay for
hogs, although the hay from any leg
ume makes profitable hog feed-hay
from Canadian field peas. the clovers,
cowpeas and peanuts. Hay from tim
othy red top and similar grasses has
little value as hog feed. The leaves Of
early cut corn fodder cured green and
sorghum cut when the seeds are in
milk make good hay for hogs. although
not nearly equal in feeding value to
the hays previously recommended
The leaf of the hay is the valuable
part for the hog feed; the stems are
too woody and are detrimental in any
plant which is used to make hay for
hogs. The plant should be cut when
1t has the most leaves and is In the
best feeding condition and the hay
cured In way to preserve the leaves
as green and fresh as possible.
Fattening hogs need only moderate
quantity of hay. enough so that they
will consume seven to eight pounds of
leaves with each bushel of grain.
Breeding hogs and growing pigs should
have every day when not on pasture
all the hay they will eat. consuming
the leaves only.
Hog raisers are often advised to cut
or grind the hay or to cut and soak it.
The hay should be fed whole and dry.
The stems are too woody to be digesti-
BILE and are detrimental to the other
feeds. Is Il careful test conducted by
the writer there was a loss of over 1
per cent from grinding alfalfa hay for
hogs.-H. NJ. Cottrel, Formerly Of

TO SAVINGS
BANK DEPOSITORS.

The Lamoille County Savings Bank &
Trust Company of Hyde Park, Vermont,
will receive your deposits on the most
favorable terms consistent with safe and
conservative banking.
Among the many reasons why you may
properly give this bank the preference in
choosing place for depositing your saw
ings it suggests the following
FIRST.-The Bank is a Vermont insti.
tuition Aside from its deposits in reserve
cities, it has never loaned dollar upon
notes which were not either secured upon
Vermont property or had strong YER
mont guarantor.
SECOND.-1n its more than twenty
two years of existence it has been so
painstaking, conservative and carful in
the investment Of funds placed within its
keeping by confiding public that it has
never lost single dollar by bad note.
THIRD.-It pays four per cent inter
est, compounds semi-annually without
action on the part of the depositor, and
pays all taxes on deposits, whatever the
amount of the deposit may be.
FOURTH managers are men
known to the people of the State as ul-
ira conservative in matters of invest
ments-men who never speculate on Wall
Street or own speculative stocks of any
kind.
FIFTH.-Absolute safety and not those
high rates of interest which can be Sc
cured by taking chances, has ever been
the guiding principle of this bank. 1t
never owned note upon which it re-
ceived more than six per cent interest.
SIXTH.-It has now passed the Two
Million Dollar mark in assets, fact
which speaks louder than words of the
faith and confidence felt by the people
of Vermont in this strictly home Savings
Bank. No other Savings Bank located
in small village like Hyde Park. APP.
proaches the Hyde Park Savings Bank in
growth, fact which cannot be explain
ed upon any other theory than that of
absolute confidence in the panstaking
watchfulness and sound judgment of
the men who direct and govern in the in
vestment of the funds entrusted to its
keeping by discriminating public.

Grange Work In the State In a
Most FIouriShing Condition.

This Is Owing Somewhat to the Fact
That State Master Healey WASTES
So Much Time Visiting the Oranges"
Under His Jurisdiction.

Under His Jurisdiction.
A neighbor of State Master L. II.
Healey of Connecticut is reported to
have said that "Mr. Healey is one of
Dur best farmers, and 1 don't see how
he can waste so much time visiting
oranges" From the enthusiastic man.
ner in which Mr.. Healey sets about his
grange work and the persistence
which he manifests in following it up
we rightly infer that he is simply car
rying into the grange field the same
systematic methods as prevail in his
farm work. He is an intensive farm
er, owning but eighty acres of land,
but he makes those acres return as
great a profit as some men realize
from twice that number
1t is greatly to his credit that he was
able to report at the state grange
meeting In January a membership Of
15,O00-not so small for the area of the
Nutmeg State. He attributes much Of
the success of the grange in that state
to the work of the press. and the only
reason it does not do more, he says,
is because we do not give 1t the op-
portunity.
The Connecticut state grange is in
most fiourishing condition 1t has a
good balance of funds in the treasury,
and it is working in harmony with all
agricultural activities of the state.
The committee on resolutions at the
recent meeting reported favorably on
the proposition to request the national
grange to publish in its proceedings
the amount of money received from
each state grange; also that an item
lied account of the money received
from each subordinate grange should
be included in the annual report of the
state grange. Past Master Hale pre-
scented a resolution, which was adopt
ed. providing that 5000 be given to the
Postal Progress league for the ad-
vancement of the parcels post agita-
ton and that $1,000 be placed at the
disposal of the executive committee to
use for the Inauguration of the parcels
post 1t was further voted that the
state master be made n trustee Of the
Connecticut Agricultural college, The
grange approved of the restoration of
the two years course in the Agriculture
al college. The committee on public
health favored a proposition that all
cattle imported into the state should be
accompanied by n certificate showing
them to have been tested 10y the tuber-
culin test within sixty days and found
free from tuberculosis. The question
provoked considerable discussion, but
the resolution prevailed The PROPOSE
ton to allow Pomona and subordinate
oranges to nominate officers was de-
feated. Favorable action was taken
for agricultural education In the high
schools.
In connection with the state grange
work there is a flourishing Patrons
Fire Insurance company as we'll as a
Patrons Exchange, which is proving a
money saver Tor its membership.

CONGRESS RESTS;
COMMITTEES ARE
HARD At WORK
No Session of Either Branch.
Reciprocity Bill
Hearing.

WASHINGTON, May l0.-Neithar
branch of Congress was in session to-
day, but there was more or less activ-
ity Of committees Of both.
Interest on the Senate side of the
capitol lay chiefly in the continued
hearings on Canadian reciprocity be-
fore the finance committee. Farmers,
paper manufacturers and wire manu-
%facturers had obtained reservations OF
time In which to address the commit
tee. Some of those who talked wers
before that body when the last Con-
gress considered the subject. They
seemed to direct TIER remarks largely
to the new members of the COMMITTEES.
OF these Senator John Sharp Williams,
of Mississippi, took probably the most
active part in questioning the wit
nesses. senator La Toilette also showed
his interest by a number of questions,
as did Senator Kern. of Indiana. and
enato Johnson, of Maine.
The House committee on territories
again considered statehood for Arizona
and New Mexico. delay having been
caused because of insistence by the
Republican members that New Mexico
be admitted without the necessity OF
voting on a proposed amendment.
There win be a report of the minority
when the resolution is submitted to the

WON'T RUN
FOR SENATORsH|P;
TALK Of ROWLAND
William F. Morgan Also Mem
tioned-- Simpson May Be
Shrievalty Candidate .

Former Senator Everett Colby has
declined to consider a suggestion that
he become the Progressive Republican
candidate for the State senatorial NOM
nation in the primaries this YER. Mr..
Colby feels thai his health would suffer
from the excitement Of a political cam
paign. The former senator has been
travelling in continental Europe. He
will be In London tor the coronation
ceremonies in June, and will arrive
home in time to lend at least his moral
influence to the Progressive Repub-
lican fight this year.
The desire that Mr.. solby should be
the Progressive leader in the primary
campaign was official, unofficial as
we'll, being shared by the rank and
file, and might be characterized as
unanimous. If there can be spon-
taneity about 4 wish that extends as
far back as the time that Mr.. Colby
suffered a reverse three years ago, the
desire was also spontaneous.
Howiand or Morgan.
Mr.. Colby being out of consideration
the question is: Who shall lead the
Progressive hosts as candidate for
senator? William Fellowes Morgan. OF
Short Hills, is II to whom the Pro-
gressives look in the time of need. He
Is ever willing to help their cause with
time, energy or money, and there is
no doubt that he would be asked to
enter the senatorial primary II there
was any lack of timber. Mr.. Morgan
has served in the Legislature, was a
candidate for sheriff, but has never
sought office for the mere sake of pos
sessing office. he is considered an
ideal a for the Progressives to pick.
Harold j. Rowland, OF Verona, an edi-
tor on the Outlook, is also regarded
as a likely person for the senatorship
race. Mr.. Rowland ran against former
Congressman r. Wayne Parker for the
congressional nomination in the Sew
enth district last September. and made
a strong showing. He gained some
prestige from the fact that Theodore
Roosevelt christened his entry into
politics with some kind words. Mr..
Roosevelt, who is an associate editor
of the Outlook, would undoubtedly
come into Essex county next fall to
make one speech calculated to help
Rowland. Whether Rowland runs or
not the Progressives will probably have
Roosevelt here to make one address
that will be at least of indirect aid to
them.
II is probable that the Progressives
will also have a candidate III the pri-
maries for the s~hrievalty nomination,
but one name has SO far been heard
in this connection. that of Walter
Simpson. the secretary of the Progress
sive Republican League. 1t looks as IL
Mr.. Simpson will be In the race.

BUSINESS MEN CALL
OFF PAVING CONFERENCE.
Will Appear, However, at the
Board of Works Meeting.

The conference between the Board of
Works and the Market Street Business
Mems Improvement Association sched-
uled for II O'Clock tomorrow morning,
which was called at the request of the
association for the discussion of wood
block for Market street was called off
this morning when Secretary John r.
Covington informed the commissioners
that no member of the association
would appear at the City Hall until
the meeting of the board In the after
noon.
The conference was arranged yes
terday. Mr.. Covington called up Com
missioner Mungle and asked that the
board meet the business men. Mr..
Mungle agreed that a public hearing
be held at which the press be repre-
scented. Covington agreed to this. This
morning, however. he called up Com
missioner O'Connell and said that 1t
would be unwise for the business men
to leave their Offices in the morning
and appear again in the afternoon
The commissioners, of course, are sat
is7ed with the arrangements.
1t is believed that the meeting of the
association with the other improve
ment ASSOCIATIONS In n boaru OF
Trade rooms yesterday Is responsible
for calling off the conference. At the
meeting yesterday the associations
came out for wood block as opposed
to everything else. Lee Ottolengui was
for arranging some sort of compromise,
but he was voted down. Therefore, it
is said, there is no need for a confer
ence tomorrow. but a formal demand
for wood block will be made at the
meeting In the afternoon.
