SOCIOLOGICAL CONGRESS
Governor Ben w. Hooper, of Tennes'
see Calls Meeting of Personal In
terest in Conditions in South

Governor Ben w. Hooper has is
sued a call for Sociological Con-
press to convene in Nashville May Z
10th, to consider the South along So
Geological lines.
The Governors of all the south
ern states have been asked to seno
delegates and already more than a
hundred delegates have been appoln-
ted.
Governor Hooper in his call mem
lions the fact that the National Con-
ference of Charities and Corrections
is composed largely of persons who
have no real information with regard
to conditions in the South or OF the
proper remedy for the evils that all
Southerners recognize, that there is
no academic body in the South that
is equal to giving advice and letting
in light upon these subjects, hence the
need of leaders along this line in the
South meeting together to consider
the needs of this section intelligently
and devising means by which prac-
tical application can be made of the
methods that have proven successful
elsewhere. The cardinal ideas COW
cred by the program are "Child Wei
fare" "Prison life and Reform,
"Public Health
Among those who have been asked
to speak are Miss Jane Gordon, Ber-
nard Flcxor, Dr.. Hastings Hart, AL
cxander Johnson and Mrs. Kate Wal
Ter Barrett.
In addition to the regular program
there will be definate steps taken to
esta blish in the South an lnter-Church
College for the training of social
workers similar to the school of PHI
Ian trophy, in New York, Chicago and
Boston.

the southern students. In the last
two years there were $50 students

They are doing excellent work. con-
Sidering they are working among

Dry Farm Methods.

Some complaints have been made
that the so-called dry farming meth
DDS do not succeed in very dry years
and that hence these methods are
wrong. Plants will not grow without
some moisture and the season of 1911
was unusually severe in its heat and
drought because it followed two other
similar seasons Immediately The
preceding seasons were not so bad,
but the rain came at such time OF the
year that there was comparatively lit
tie moisture in the soil during the
growing periods. This, however
should not argue against dry-farming
methods, as they are simply good
farming methods which are applica-
bic in a greater or less degree to
every section OF the United States
Dry-farming methods do produce
good results in three seasons out of
five and are more likely to produce
results every year than any other
method which has been devised

SOME HOG INFORMATION.

Change the hog nesting frequently.
Usc>a scrub sire and your herd will
soon run all to nose and bristles.
Sheep delight in eating sweet Glow
cr, and it keeps them in thrifty CON
dition.
A runty pig is more the result of
neglect by its owner than OF breed
or birth
Have a care how you feed corn to
hogs on full feed that is considerably
wormy,
Regular. systematic feeding should
be practiced with hogs just the same
as with any other stock.
Brood sows require mixed diet
and one containing plenty OF protein
and not too fattening quality.
Though hogs are proverbially dirty
animals. they enjoy clean drinking
wafer as much as the other stock.
A big, hot bran mash, with pint OF
, flax seed Jelly, &C week will help
the horses to shed their winter coats.
A chilly hog takes on fat very
slowly. his rations going toward
maintaining bodily heat instead of
producing flesh.
II you want to know the dollar and
cents difference between pure bred
and scrub hogs, try shaping up one
of each kind and selling them
Hogs in the fattening pen should
be supplied with large quantities of
clean. pure water. 1t is required to
properly digest and assimilate dry
feed like corn.
You cannot reasonably expect a
hog to do his best on single grain ra
ton, any more than you would ex
pect horse to keep in good flesh and
do the maximum amount of work it
fed on hay alone
While clean, dry bedding is essen
| ial in the hog house. the matter can
be overdone If there is not sufficient
nesting material for the hogs to crawl
into it and cover up completely, they
will chill when they come out
