Use SUPERIOR Boar,

The influence of prepotent sires In
all kinds of live stock Is q subject
that confronts every farmer. and this
applies with great force to swine.
The boar represents one-half OF your
herd. A superior boar ia the only
kind that should be used. Yoked
with ordinary sows you will get good
results. but an Inferior boar coupled
with inferior sows brings disastrous
results. The raising and lowering
the standard Of all kinds Of live stock
depends largely upon the sire.

There is wide interest In informa-
ton for growing alfalfa on dry land.
and many attempts to seed alfalfa are
made each year, but with almost as
many failures. Quite often. due to
poor preparation of the soil before
hand and trying the ordinary thick
seeding method which over pastures
the soil moisture, the result is fall
ure. but there are. however. success
ful attempts in growing alfalfa on dry
land.
The experience OF a dry land farm
er who started right will be of inter.
est to many who are thinking of try
Ing to seed alfalfa.
February 0, 1912. Mr.. H. f. Hess Of
Deer Trail. Colo, addressed an In
quiry to the Colorado experiment sta

Il am living on a homestead eight
and one-half miles southwest of Deer

that from description his deeply plow-

on. and that his plan. outlined should
give success.
Under date Of Feb. 2. 1918. Mr..
Hess again writes. as follows:
After receiving your letter de-
cided to try Baltic alfalfa. as you
seem to think 1t equally good for hay
and better yield than the Grimm.
II bought two and onehalf pounds
OF the Baltic alfalfa seed and. after

FORE RIVER co. AFTER BIG JOB
Bids for Ore Vessels to Run from
htt United States to Chill.

Quincy, Mass.-The Fore River
Ship Building Company have filed
bid for the construction of a feet
of ore vessels to run between this
country and Chilli.
Charles NJ. Schwab, president OF the
Bethlehem Steel Company, which re-
Gently took control of the Fore River
Company, is reported to be interest
ed IN ore fields in the South Ameri-
can country. His interests would be
especially well served, it is believed
If the contract for the ore boats
should be awarded to the Quincy
concern.
1t is understood that it will be pos
sible to construct the vessels and
have them completed in time for the
opening of the Panama canal, which
will give them a quick and direct
route between the coast of the east
ern Atlantic and points in Chill.
In the light of the bids for the
ore vessels, it is considered signifi-
can't that there is larger working
force at the Fore River Ship Build
ing Company's plant at present than
at any time for a long while. The
number of men now exceeds 1000.
Business at the plant has material
ly developed since the Bethlehem
Steel Company took control, though
the number of employees is said to be
even larger in proportion to the
volume of contracts than at former
times.
The considerable quantity of work
which the old company had on hand
before the Pennsylvania concern step
ped in is being rapidly completed.
The big Argentine battleship Riva-
davia is to have her trial trip next
