the economic standpoint the outlook
is slightly better than year ago.
Trade conditions are sound. Liqui-
dation has been thorough. There is
little or no overproduction. Stocks
Of merchandise are generally light.
Credit is sound. Commodity prices
are still high but often declining. La
Dor is generally Well employed and
getting good wages. These are ia
vorable factors. The unfavorable are
the unrest of Labor and the prospect
of fresh strikes next year, especially
in the coal trade. From the political
standpoint the outlook is far from
encouraging. This is a presidential
year. AS already shown there is
much unrest. Radical tendencies are
running strong, and while parties are
maneuvering for public favor all sorts
of erratic and threatening proposals
are imminent Undoubtedly there
will be more talk than action. I'm
der such conditions capital is neces-
sarily timid and new enterprise will
be checked until the final outcome can
be fairly guessed. We thus have a
conflict between favorable economic
conditions and unfavorable political
conditions. In time the economic will
prevail, but in the interim the political
may rule, which means a cautious
but hopeful policy for 1911. These
opinions are based on the assumption
of international peace, though It must
be admitted the foreign situation
contains seeds of trouble, and the un-
expected may happen-witness the
narrow escape from collision be-
tween England and Germany last
summer.

URGE ESTABLISHMENT Of

This especial interest is in the hands
OF the division of mechanical science

County Judge Johnson of Morton
county, in recalling some Of the
, things that happen about his office,
remarked to tine Tribune man as they
were sitting in the Office of a local
lawyer enjoying a social smoke and
swapping "reminiscences. "Say, have
you ever heard OF exchanging brides
inside Of week, and then having a
man ask to scratch the names out
of the lice1se secured for one g1rl
and want another substituted? Well
I've seen it done. A Russian in the
southern part of this county secured
through the mail order plan a wtfe-to-
be, tr at least he thought SO. He had
agreed to leave her, at his death,
81 1000 in his will, and had it drawn
in that way; but just as she arrived
here she received letter from her
son in Canada, WHO wrote that IT she
would come up there she could get
home in three years which would
be worth a thousand dollars. She
told the man she was to marry that
since she could get a home and 81 900
in three years, she didn't think it
worth while to Live with him Is or 20
years and wait for him to die to get
that money, 50 he had better get an
other woman. Inside of week the
man appeared IN the judges office
and wanted the name of woman No 1
scratched out and the name of No. 2
! written in. He took a new license
! and The wedding followed in a couple
Of days. Now that's not so slow for
getting into the harness, is It?
"A similar case happened in the
same court" he continued, "but this
time it was not q Russian who asked
for the exchange. but a young man
who had been fitted by his sweet
Meart on the eve of his marriage. He
came in on Saturday and took out his
license and within the week returned
and wanted another because he had
been thrown over by the first girl and
had lost no time in getting in touch
with another and popped the ques-
tim. For real speed in matrimony,
Morton county has all the others
backed off the boards" concluded the
genial Judge, as he relghted his

the little country of Graustark, where
the attractive young lady is a reigning
princess. The princess il about to

PROFITABLE FEEDING
OF CHESTER WHITES
Difference Shown Between Hog
Given Penty Of Feed and
One Neglected.

The result of different treatments OF
hogs came to my notice last spring,
when a neighbor sold two average
pigs eight weeks old to man who did
not have any other hogs. He bought
the two hogs to make pork the next
fall and, of course, wanted to give
them good chance to do their best.
They were fed wheat middlings, milk
and scraps from the table, in addition
to the pasture they gathered. They
were grade Chester Whites, farrowed
in April. These two pigs dressed be-
tween $50 and Its pounds each when
about seven months old.
The pigs that had not been sold and
out of the same litter were allowed to
run on pasture! and when corn was
ready to feed they were fed enough
corn to put them In pork condition,
but when slaughtered at about the
same time as the other two they only
weighed 65 to 10 pounds each. There
was difference OF nearly 100 pounds
between these well-fed hogs and their
mates not SO fed, and it is wholly due
to different treatments. 1t is easy to
see which was the most economical
pork producer the weIl-cared-for hog
or the one which got enough feed to
barely live until fattening time The
difference in value was almost $40. as
pork sold at 10 cents pound here
last fall. The two well-cared-for hogs
did not eat near SO worth OF feed
from the time they were separated
from their mates until they were
