A nice lunch, consisting Of banana
salad with cherries. nut loaf, light

by the hostesses at midnight. Little
red hatchets were passed to each as a

The announcement of Colonel
Roosevelt that he will accept the
republican nomination for presi-
dent il rendered to him, gives a
new aspect to the preconvention
political situation, The contest
on the republican side is now
between President Taft and Col
onel Roosevelt. Senator La
Toilette is practically left out.
As for the effect OF the announce
ment on the democratic situa-
ton, this weeks dispatches indi-
cate considerable agitation and
it is even proposed to postpone
the democratic nominating con-
vention in order to give more
time to deliberate after the re
publican candidate has been
selected. Who will be the repub.
lican nominee is the question for
the adherents of Taft and of
Roosevelt to decide. While the
more powerful OF the business
interests will rally to the presi-
dent, Roosevelt's greatest
strength will undoubtedly be
developed among the rank and
file of the party. A vast number
who wanted to vote for Roose-
Welt in 1908 but were obliged to
take second choice, will again
flock to his standard, believing
that he is the man from whom
The common people may expect
greater service than can be
gotten from any other candi-
date. Even il Roosevelt should
fail to get the nomination, his
entrance into the campaign will
cause the contest to be wrapped
around with ali interest and
INFUSED with a vigor that other
wise might not have been ex-
pected. Taft and Roosevelt are
both strong men, and both will
be expected to put up the strong
est kind of a FIGHT.

What to Feed Hogs.

According to figures that w. L.
Carlyle, dean of the agricultural de.
partment Ut the University Of Idaho,
has made during the course of bis
study OF the tastes, desires, ambitions
and general aspirations OF the hog
family, he has found that it takes is
per cent Of the total amount OF food
given to 6o-pound<pig to maintain
or to support that pig, the rest going
into the animals flesh to make him
increase In size and weight. At the
same time, 1t takes Is per cent 10 a
t00-pound pig, q per cent Ia a l5O-
pound pig and SO per cent In a 200.
pound pig to get the same results.
He also has discovered that it takes
224 4 pounds Of dry matter in the
feed to make 50-pound pig gain 100
pounds, 3l2.2 pounds in a $50. pound
pig, 395 8 pounds in a 200 pound ami.
NAL to produce the same gain. From
these facts that the dean has gath
cred, be shows the farmer that the
earlier 10 life that he can get his hogs
to eating grain, the greater and better
will be the gains that he will make.
He points out that alfalfa will Just
about support pig without giving it
a chance to make any gain 10 weight
or size. The more grain that the
farmer can get down the threats Of
his animals In addition TO the alfalfa
feeds. the better results he will get
from his hogs on the market, the ex-
pert says. The study Of the main
tenance figures show that it takes
Just twice as much to support a 300
pound pix as 1t does 5O-pound ami
mal, the proportion of the amount Of
feed necessary to keep the older ami
mal alive without allowing it to gain
flesh being just twice as much as the
younger one.
Reform 10 the care OF the hog
seems to be the deans ambition, for
he urges the farmer to minister to
the tastes Of the animal as though it
were the youngest 10 a family of IL.
lie believes 10 giving the pig food
that he likes, not things that he eats

The ideal thing 10 hog raising, he says.
Barley, mill stuffs, wheat, peas, rye,
oats, corn are all recommended by
the expert as the basis OF the food.
though he doesn't want the farmer TO
forget that they should be properly
mixed In order to get the maximum
food value from them. He advocates
the use OF roots, beets, mangels,
tarnips, carrots. potatoes and other
things OF the kind 10 order to keep
the hog from getting tired of his
menu and wishing that he could
