STOCK
CARE IN HOG BREEDING PAYS
Breeder Must Choose the Breed That
Most Nearly Conforms to His
Particular Purpose.

Hogs are peculiarly susceptible to
environment and rapidly improve or
retrograde through the infusion Of
ease with which they take advantage
of improved conditions and the won
derful improvement to be noted in
form and size, no other class OF live
stock furnishes more satisfaction to the
conscientious breeder. He has many
different qualities to choose from, all
good, but not all alike suited in tenn
permanent to one locality OF one meth
cd OF management.
Then, again, different types attract
different tastes, and the breeder must
choose the breed that most nearly
conforms to his particular purpose
and preference. remembering always
10 select animals showing strong in
the points and characteristics of the
breed chosen. says the Orange Judd
Farmer.
In breeding for improvement in any
variety much can be accomplished
Improvements may be discernible with
each effort IL rightly conducted and a
breeder may reasonably expect salts
factory results in molding hog to his
own ideas within three or four genera
tions. With such rapid progress swine
breeding proves extremely fascinating
but great danger lies hidden in such
rapid progress.
Stimulated by each pronounced inn
provement Of the shape of ear, length
of leg, color or formation of body, the
breeder must not overlook the fact
that the farmer is essentially practical
lie cares little whether the ear has an
artistic droop or stands upright
whether the hair Is straight, curly
black, white or red. He wants hog
that will produce the largest amount
Of revenue in the shortest time with
the least expenditure. To this end II
stands the breeder in hand to have for
bis ideals a hog large in size. strong
In bone. with well-shaped hams and
shoulders, one that will fatten quickly
and cheaply.

EARLY DRAGGING OF ROADS
Not a Laborious Job and viii Save
Farmer Many Times Cost of
Such Work During Year.

Nothing adds more immediate yalu,
TO our farm land than accessibility
TO markets. such connecting link be-
tween the farm and market being a
good road. The early dragging of our
dirt roads is certainly to be com
mended Just as soon as the frost be-
gins to come out OF the ground. the
farmer should commence dragging.
This Is not laborious job. good
team can put the road between him
and the first crossing toward town,
even II half mile away. In good con
dition In a half day. and he will save
many times the cost OF such labor or
expense during the year. Besides the
additional value It adds to the farm
there is that personal pride that we
all owe 10 every community. and
especially 70 ourselves.

MAINTENANCE OF THE ROADS
King Road Drag Is Proving Blessing
TO Rural District Of West-lmple-
ment Is Easily Made.

The immediate interest of rural dis
tricts in the good roads question cen
ters in the practical plans for making
the roads as good as possible without
the addition of imported material. This
applies, especially, to prairie regions
where there is no material for sur
facing without thu expense of shipping
II in. With no material at hand, it will
necessarily be a long time before any,
with the exception Of the main trav-
eled roads. can be treated. While
the building of permanent roads
sible, anything that can be done to
Improve the condition of our roads will
become a great blessing.
The King road drag for maintaining
dirt roads is proving a blessing to ru-
raj districts of the West, with the addi-
ton of drainage and the use Of country
graders. Thousands of miles Of cOun-
try roads in the central West will be
maintained this year In splendid con-
dition through the use of the King
road drag, says the Iowa Homestead
The drag is easily and cheaply made
at cost of not to exceed 81. A begin
ming could be made by our readers
} this spring by maintaining in hrst'
class condition the dirt roads adioin'
ing their farms Why not take the In
itlative and start the movement a.

features of the roads is their width.
Another Is the gutter and curbing,

in the county is 20 feet wide and the
width varies from that up to GO feet.

Chicago, Dec. 2.--Today's session Of

II was difficult process and the
Interrogation failed In some instances
of obtaining definite reply. One
question involved the apparent over
tapping of the preparatory running
and terminal delay periods for which
specific pay Is requested. Sheean fin
ally interpreted the witness analysis
as showing that an engineman would
be paid five or six hours pay for
two hours work
The demand that engineers and
fremen at terminal or end of run are
automatically released: when used
again they begin new day." resulted
in another tangle when Sheean called
to mind a railway division the -termi-
nails Of which are three miles apart,
and considered this in connection with
the proposed schedule of pay for
overtime. Witness finally decided at
the end of the thrcemile run the en-
gine crews delay was over and
that on the return trip new day be-

minister of foreign affairs at Santiago.
The fear Is expressed by the Chilean
officials that Germany's alleged viola

regard the territorial jurisdiction of
Chile and perhaps cause them to send
their warships within the three-mile
limit to stop German depredations

Summary of War
NeWs of Yesterday

The German reichstag has voted a
new war credit of $l,250, 100000 and
the imperial chancellor, Dr. Won Beth
mann -Hollweg, before the German
house of representatives has declared
that the future can be regarded with
every confidence,
1--WE must and will fight to "a sue
eossful end" said the chancellor, our
defensive war for right and freedom
At the same time the chancellor as
serted that the apparent responsibility
for this greatest OF all wars, lies
with Russia, while the real RESPONSE
bility falls on the British govern
ment.
Germany's action as mediator be-
tween st. Petersburg and Vienna
would have been successful, the impe-
rial chancellor further declared, had
England warned the Russian govern
ment that she would not allow a con-
tinental war to develop from the Aus
trian-Servian conflict, and thus
obliged France to restrain Russia
from undertaking warlike measures.
