The Navajo-Apache Telephone system have been making re- pairs to their line in the town of Taylor, consisting of rebutting and strengthening their poles on the main line running through Taylor.

This company expects to spend considerable money on extensions and inn provements to their system dur ing the spring and summer.

scnuHAH.-nE PASSED
THROUGH DEFINING SATURDAY

Madame Schumann-I Ieink, the
great German singer, passed through
Deming on the Golden State Limited
last Saturday, en- route from her
sons home in San Diego, California,
to eastern points. When seen by
representative of the Graphic the fa-
nous Diva whose voice has enthused
u million people and charmed mil
lion dollars into the toe of her sub
stantial German stocking, spoke of
many things in the few minutes of
her stay here. She is well pleased
with the country of her adoption and
especially the West, which she says
is magnificent" The son whom she
has been visiting near San Diego is
II rancher and Madam takes an in
telligent interest in everything that

MAKE UP OF A HOG RATION
WITHOUT USE OF MILK

Where dairying is not practiced,
but where it is desirable to grow
hogs, one should plan on growing
plenty of alfalfa pasture. The pig
is to have all of this crop he can
eat, all summer long. His ration
should include plenty of water. AT
least sixteen pounds per 100 pounds
of little pig and more in hot weather.
For our concentrated protein and
mineral supply We should look to
tankage. We should use only as
much as is necessary. We should
use some shorts or mill feed and as
much corn, barley or rye as possible,
and yet not over supply the neces-
sary carbonaceous portion of the ia
ton.

HOG BREEDERS NOT
CAREFUL AND SKILLFUL

\ great many breeders are not
careful and skillful in selecting ami
mails for breeding purposes, is the
declaration made in an Idaho bulle-
lin. gifts are bred nj four 10 five
months of age and permanently
stunted, and the young boar is far
more popular than he deserves. 1t
is certain that mature animals are
more efficient and successful rs pro-
ducers. and il is undoubtedly true
that too many old boarS, well known
for success as breeders, are sold for
breeding purposes ut a sacrifice or
sent to slaughter on account of I'M
popular size.
Likewise, old sows are the best
breeders and. if retaining their
breeding powers. should not be sacli-
feed or replaced by gifts. The rela-
tive efficiency of old and young sows
was tested at the Iowa Experiment
Station.
Fifteen gifts bred at eighteen
months averaged seven and two
thirds pigs per litter. Sows twenty
four months old averaged nine and
six-tenths pigs. Pigs from gifts
weighed an average of $50 pounds
at birth; from the 2-year-old sows,
2.63 pounds at birth. When six
weeks old pigs from the gifts had
made an average daily gain of .32
pound, the pigs from the older sows
had gained 40 pound daily.

poiniment or election of an advisory
board by the Chamber of Commerce
for the purpose of advising new set
tiers upon various questions which
arise in connection with development
of farms in the valley. Ii is Mr..
Cooper's idea that many mistakes
could be avoided in this way. and
much money saved. "Of course"
said Mr. Cooper, "all mistakes would
not be avoided in this way, and many
men would pay no attention to such
advice after it was given; but do
believe that there would be enough
trouble. expense and worry saved to
instify the appointment and opera
lion of such board. Besides,
board such as suggested could advo-
cate many helpful things through
the public prints and in other ways

Perpetual Motion,

One may well be sure that there is
no perpetual motion machine" For
this purpose machines have been con
structed from time immemorial. but
nothing has ever come Of it. Men have
gone mad on the subject, but without
any practical results. 1t was demon
strated long ago by Sir Isaac Newton
and De la Hire that perpetual motion
is impossible of attainment. Even the

edge, will run down in the course OF
