a clipping from theHerald to the

clipping the Journal used from

give us credit for what don't be-
long to us. The article referred
to says there is not enough
money in the valley to be spared
for such an undertaking, " refer
ring to the testing of wells as re-
CARDS our irrigation district. The
necessary money for these tests
is not only in the valley, but in
the bank ready for use in max
ing such tests. The $4,000 asked
of congress is not to test wells
already drilled, but to drill other
test wells" Forget that libel

Ell Paso, Texas, May 9TH,
conference will take place in ,
tent about half way between tn,
Madero camp and the fedora
stronghold at Juarez. Ropes
have been stretched around.it fol
some distance and curious spec,
tators, especially those with cam.
eras, will be kept at a distance
to prevent annoyance to the
negotiators. 1t has not yet been
decided who will be admitted to
the conference for both sides, but
it is probable that senors Braniff
and Obregon and probably gov
ernor Ahumada of Chihuahua,
who is expected here tonight will
argue the governments case.
For the revolutionists, DR.. Vas
quez Gomez, Francisco Madero
ST., and senior Pine Suarez, pro-
visional governor of Yucatan, will
be the sold representatives of the
insurgents present.
Judge Carbajal was introduced
to Francisco Madero, sr,, early
today at breakfast in a local no.
tel, and other members of the
Madero family were later pre-
sented to him. Judge Carbajal
has been besieged by newspaper
men since he arrived but as he
does not speak English he has
been able to avoid them. He was
asked this morning what he be-
lieved were the prospects for
peace.
They are very bright" said
judge Carbajal.
DO you carry proposals to be
made to the revolutionists or
have you been instructed
merely to transmit their ideas to
the federal government for con-
sideratlon?" taa
I have full power to act. I
will receive the revolutionists'

Rumors of confessions by mem-

ment that he would request the
resignation from the house cal

iterated his declaration that he
would not accept any confess

fessions to escape prosecution
through the immunity bath.
It is still reported here that de-
tectives have secured evidence

FEEDING YOUNG pigs


I If no milk is available use middlings
and ground corn or six parts ground
corn and one part tankago. The little
pigs also learn to eat the green feed
and when two months old are weaned
Having learned to eat we'll, they will
feel the loss of their mothers very
little nor are their digestive organs
deranged by any sudden change of
feed
This system Of feeding is continued
until the early sorghum, Spanish pea
nuts. and later soy bean lots are ready
and the corn and cowpeas. 1t is i'm
portant that the pigs be given plenty
of clean water and shade and kept
free from lice by using any cheap
heavy oil or five per cent solution
of any OF the standard coal tar pro-
ducts used for this purpose. Farmers
must not forget that size is largely
the result of feed as we'll as inheri
tance, and while the pig may inherit
large size. it requires constant, liberal
feeding to develop it,
In our experiments this year we are
arranging to determine the number Of
pounds of pork per acre that can be
derived from the different crops east
ly grown in this state. We would al
so be glad to get in touch with farm
ers who are feeding pigs this summer

The Laurens advertiser. (Laurens, S.C.) 1885-1973, 1911-05-24

At this time of year most of the
sows have farrowed their spring lit
ters and it is very important that the
little pigs be kept in a thrifty, grow
ing condition and developed to maturi-
ty at a minimum cost. A fender
around the narrowing pen made of
poles or scantling about ten inches
from the wall and eight inches from
the floor will save the lives of many
little pigs and prevent the SOW from
crushing or injuring them.
Until the pigs are Il month old the
only way of feeding them is through
the mother. and the amount of milk
given by the SOW has a decided effect
on the future Development of the
young pigs.
Our plan of handling hogs at Glenn
son College is to keep the SOW with
young pigs in the farrowing pen which
has small lot adjoining for three
to four weeks after farrowing, then
turn them out on green rye, clover,
and Bermuda grass pasture or rape.
which are the only green crops we
have at present, Separate small
movable houses are provided for each
SOW and in addition to the feed given
the SOW, which consists of little
corn and wheat middlings. the pigs are
middlings made into thin slop, and

Hit and Tally Record for
One Ball Day Smashed

All marathon records of the
national pastime were smashed to
smithereens in yesterdays big
league games. In the eight con-
tests played more runs and more
hits were furnished the fans than
ever before seen In one afternoon.
Altogether jig tallies were hung
out on the scoreboards. OF these
sixty-seven fell to the American
League. and seventy-five to the
National Tom Lynch's circuit
furnished ninety-one base hits
while Ban Johnson's athletes
pounded the ball for eighty-six
safeties. The White Sox and
Phillies, with twenty and nine
teen runs respectively, led their
leagues in run-getting. The Sox,
with twenty-one hits, proved the
heaviest hitting aggregation or
the sixteen. Detroit was the only
club which failed to get run.
The Yankees, Athletics and Red
Sox were the only clubs which
played errorless ball. Six of the
clubs scored ten runs or more.
Twelve clubs hi. into double fig
ures. In two different innings
the Phillies tailed eight times
before the third man was retired.
Pittsbure scored seven runs in the
ninth inning.
