SWINE.

The swine industry of Kentucky
deserves much more attention than
it now receives. Not only should
the number of animals produced
annually be increased but also the
breeding and feeding should re-
ceive more careful attention.
To begin with, we cannot afford
to raise any but the best hogs. BY
this we do not mean any particu-
lar breed, but we do mean that the
animals should belong to some
breed. A good grade is better
than the average grade, to say
nothing of the scrub. In two all
important particulars is the pure
bred animal superior; first, more
economical gains are secured for
the feed consumed, and second,
when the animal is ready for
market it will command the top
price, whereas the scrub will
probably sell so cents lower. just
here it is we'll to remember that
this so cents reduction must be
taken from our margin of profit,
which is narrow enough already.
Inheritance largely fixes the pos
sibilities of an animal, furnishing
the detailed plans and specifca-
tons beforehand, while the feed
ing later builds the structure and
maintains it. Some feeders advo-
cate cross breeding of hogs, hold
ing that the cross bred animals
make better feeders. Even if we
grant this to be true, the same
feeder will admit that the second
cross is very poor. Then in order
to keep stocked with animals of
the first cross we must be continu-
ally dependent upon the pure
breeders for fresh stock of the
two breeds concerned, always pay
ing fancy prices.
One of the best features of any
kind of stock farming is that it
stimulates other farm activities.
The feed should nearly all be pro-
duced on the farm. One impor-
tant principle in feeding will be
mentioned here. The young,
growing animal requires a ration
much different from that of the
mature animal. The most impor-
tant period of a pigs life is the
time between weaving and his at
tanning 140 pounds weight. The
growing animal requires much
protein and ash to produce muscle
and bone respectively, the purpose
being to grow a frame upon which
to lay a pad of fat. |
To meet the requirements of
growth, suitable food must be pro-
vided. The cheapest gains can no
doubt be made by providing alfalfa
or clover pasture and giving a
supplementary corn ration. In
this case alfalfa provides the great
er part of the protein and ash.
The profitable feeding of pigs in
winter is somewhat more difficult
than in summer. In the winter
season in this latitude, the lack of
alfalfa pasture can be largely
atoned for by young rye. This
should be sown heavily, about four
per acre, drilling both
ways.
Skim milk is one of the best
Known supplements for corn in
'eeding young swine, and we will
10 ourselves no harm by making
IN effort to produce more skim
milk, for the dairy industry is
highly profitable. Soy beans and

ATTELl is A HAS-DEEN;
THOMAS GETS VICTORY
Fight Game in New York is Put
on a Sounder Basis by
the Scrap

NEW YORK. Sept. ll.--The bout
between Abe Attell and Harry Thorn
a. the English crack. at Madison
Square Garden last night mad two re.
suits: Attell IS now in the has-been
class and the fight game In New York
seems TO be on a sounder basis.
From the tap OF. the gong I'm the
first round Abe put forth his best
efforts to retrieve his somewhat dam
aged reputation. He fought cleyerly
and showed that he. was after Thom-
as scalp every minute. As the bout
progressed, however, the former
champion slowed down perceptibly
while his opponent. encouraged by
Abe.s waning vitality, put on extra
steam and wound up with decisive
victory.
Today Sheriff Hamburger, who al.
tended the bout. sent this report TO
Gov. Dix: ~ ~.

simple boxing exhibition, and a con-
test that might be conducted in any

Tigers 9, Nationals 8; Overcoming
A Seven Run Lead is Some Stunt

The Tiger seventh could hardly be
called batting rally. as there, was
only one hit But ii counted three
runs for US. One error. two bases
on balls, one man hit and a clean
single did the business.
Three hits and two bases on balls
resulted IN three runs for the Tigers
In the eighth with four needed to tie.
Cobb's triple placed him on third
in the ninth after he had two strikes
on him. IL looked as IL he might die
there when Veach famed and Louden
flied short to Milan. But Gandil let
Onslow's slow grounder through him
and the score was tied.
The Tigers winning run came in a
spectacular way. Bush. the. recipient
OF pass. was on first with two down
when Crawford clipped a hit to left.
Shanks got II back to Foster to get
Bush going to third. Foster tried to
get the ball to second to get Crawford,
but threw wild. and DOME scored.
II took lot OF substitntions TO win
that game. Covington and Willett
both pitched excellent ball for a short
time. Every Tiger catcher was used.

CHANCE CAM I SEE REASON
FOR FAvORIAG RED S0X
Thinks That in Pitchers Bat
tie, Giants Will
Win Out

NEW YORK. Sept. 1i.--While
admitting that there was still bare
possibility that the Cubs could nose
out the Giants. Frank Chance. man
ager OF the Chicago Nationals, show
ed today that he does not count this
probability by discussing the out
come Of the worlds series between
the locals and the Boston Red Sox.
Chance insisted that he could see
no good reasons for making the AM
erican Leaguers favorites.
"A worlds series OF seven games
Is never a good test Of the general
strength of the teams" said the
noted manager whose team clashes
with the Giants this afternoon for
the last time this season. THE re-
suit always depends on the pitching.
With such pitchers as Mathewson
and Tesreau for the hard work. and
the others to help out the Giants
ought to win. Joe Woods, Buck
O'Brien and Bedient ma ybe good,
but they are no better than the two
Giant stars. Matty and Tesreau are
both physical giants and can stand
an immense amount Of work.
eff were TO bet money on ball
game I would rather have Matty
pitching than any man in the world.
He Is unQuestionably the greatest OF
all pitchers other great men have
come and gone but for years he has
been right there at the top. He can
always be depended on to pitch an
game This stun about
Matty being all In Is bosh.
"Tesreau is one of the most prom
ising young pitchers have ever
seen. The strongest point in his
favor Is that nothing ever bothers
him. He has wonderful spit ball
and speed and the beauty of his
work Is that he never gets excited
and no amount OF. joshing can rattle
him.
"The Red Sox have a wonderful
outfield, and hard-hitting team In
general, but they are not so fast as
the Giants on the bases. But II is
useless to discuss individual players
as the result will surely be up to
the pitchers"

Bu RALPH 2. YoNKER.

When John Dubuc returns to his
home In Montreal the first part OF
October there will be royal wei
come awaiting him.
Dubus is the FIRST Montreal citizen
to make good In the big leagues and
SO the residents of that beautiful city
are going to make him appreciate his
honor.
Montreal IL composed of q few Eng
lish people, most OF whom have to
speak French in order TO be able TO
find their way about the city, and
Frenchmen. So when Jean returns to
his home town most Of the city will
be out TO see him.
Montreal may like It's soccer foot
ball and Its iacross and it's hockey
but II isn't forgetting baseball all this
time. John Is liked personally as
well as for his great pitching this
summer here and In past years at
Montreal, so there will be enthusiasm
to spare when Johnny comes march
ing home.
Dnbuc hasn't been in evidence
much lately, For some time previous
TO this week he was not even I'm uni-
form. The cause has been a sore arm
which he has had treated by an oste-
opath and which Is just rounding into
shape again. Jean expects to be able
to pitch by next week.
There has been kink In the fling
err. The whole forearm has been
swollen. John says that for a time 1t
was three times It's natural size. The
cause, he thinks, is overwork. For
while when the Tigers were short OF
men Dubuc had to work his regular
turn and then finish game here and
there. The last game he finished in
Chicago put him In misery.
Strange to say there has been no
pain whatever most OF the time I'm
the arm. A sharp twinge In the fin-
gers OF his right hand Shas been all
besides the swelling and q general
feeling Of uselessness Of the arm.
Jean says that he Is due for big
increase In salary during the coming
year. As he has been valuable
man and President Navin Is willing
to meet the demands Of those who he
thinks deserve consideration, II Is
probable that John will return to De-
troit next spring a much higher paid
man that he is now.
Dubuc owns a very profitable pool,
and billiard room and bowling alley
In Montreal and he has an oppor-
tunity to get into a paying cafe busi-
ness. He is in baseball because he
believes II will pay him financially.
SO II he doesn't get what he wants
he says that he'll quit the game.
Besides the emoluments coming
from his business In Montreal. John
has- some mining stock that Is In the
luclg colurnn and is paying good divi-
seppdS

Bill Loiden continues TO play the
best kind Of game In the infield.
Bill Louden can thank his lucky
stars that he is In the big league now,
and the Tigers can thank theirs thar
they still have Bill.
II Il hadn't been that Jim Delahanty
was slowing up and that Charlie
'OI.eary was getting little away
from his youth, IL is very likely that
Louden would have been shipped
back to the minors soon after the
season began.
The fans here remember when he
was going 50 badly that he had to be
taken out of the game altogether.
The Tigers were so absolutely dis
gusted with him then that he would
have been shipped back to the minors
sure II the club hadn't been hard put
to II for inhelders. casA
George Stallings, who recommend.
ed Louden to the Tigers, has always
said that Bills logical position Was
at second and since being placed
there he has played a wonderful
game. ~
Jennings IL confident that Loudeu
is going to hit around ESQ next year.
This hitting, combined with bis great
fieIding. will make him one OF the
best infielders in the game.
And this is the man who nearly
went back.
The Nationals found ,Boehler and
his splitter easy yesterday and took \
bie lead on him in the FIRST inning
which he never made up. BY using
pinch hitters and Coyington and VIII
lett 20 stem the tide. the Tigers tied
in the -ninth. when Cobb tripled and
came home when Gandil let Ed On
slows roller through him.
Bush's walk. Cobb's double and
Fosters error In trying TO get Cobb
resulted in the winning run.
