THE BENEFIT OF !. !.
ALFALFA FOR HOGS

In number Of experiments
when they were allowed to be iudg-
es as to the amount of alfalfa need
ed they made greater and cheaper
gains than when feeders figured it
out for them by allowing them a
oertainsRrcportim of alfalfa meal
or chopped alfalfa with varying
amounts of corn.
Nebraska that thoroughly test
ed this matter. The object was to
find out the most profitable form
in which to feed alfalfa, and how
much of it to feed in proportion to
the corn. Alfalfa was fed as hay in
a self feeding rack; chopped with
corn, and as meal with corn. In all
the tests, the rack method com.
pared we'll with the others, in most
cases the net cost per hundred lbs.
of gain averaged about fifty cents
less.
Am average of five years test at
that station gave daily gain of
fifteen pounds when hogs were fed
corn with alfalfa in the self
feeder. When they were given
nine parts of corn and one part OF
chopped alfalfa hay the daily gain
was LAG costing sS.S7 per 100
pounds Of pork gain, as compared
with only $3.7S when the alfalfa
was fed in the rack The actual dit
ference in the amount of alfalfa con
sumed was not much; neither was
there much difference in the amoun
of corn required to produce lou
pounds of gain it being 436 with
alfalfa in the rack and ABB when
it was fed chopped. The greater
cost of the chopped alfalfa made it
slightly more expensive.

SUNDAY LAST AN
AUTOMOBILE DAY

The delightfully."- warm weather
last Sabbath brought out large
number of autos.
Indeed it seemed that everyot..
who had a machine was on the
road with their families from early
till late.
The conditions of the roads here
about just after their first dragging
coupled with spring like weather,
with the Thermometer at 70 degrees
was probably the cause of SO many
being out for JOY ride.
The auto dealers are preparing
for a good run OF business this
season; and gasoline dealers are
likewise looking forward to a live
ly trade in their line.
But woe be to the man or COM
pany who unloads poor grade of
gasoline on this market hereafter.
Another dose like that of few
weeks ago will bring State Oil
Inspector here double quick.

TRAIN CONDUCTOR
CAN MAKE ARRESTS

1t is not generally known that
a conductor in charge of a train
has all the rights OF an officer OF
the law. He has the right to ar
rest or take into custody any one
who causes trouble in any way eth
er at station or while the train
is enroute. But very few conductors
assert their authority. Whenev ven
trouble of amy kind comes up. they
usually telegraph to the next stop
ping point, requesting officers tC
meet them there and the men who
have caused the trouble are point
ed out to the officers. This howev-
er is not necessary for the con
ductors can take and hold by an!
means any law violators and carr,
them to the end of the route il
they so desire.

RELATIONSHIP between
ROADS AND SCHOOLS

The rural population Is more win
ing to support better schools TO-DAY
than at any other time.
/, II is being realized that all edu-
cational activities or agencies must
De less correlated, and more than
all else, that they must be made ac-
cessible to the children In manv
countries where bad roads prevail
most of the schools are of the an
tiquadated one-room variety. They
are usually located along bad roads,
which during the winter when the
schools are usually in session. be-
come so nearly impossible as to
make it difficult for the children To
reach them. This condition causes
irregular attendance and restricts
the educational opportunities of
the child. Not only this, but it i'm
pedes the economic consolidation,
of these smaller schools into larger
stronger graded with high school
courses, directed by competent
principal and corps of teachers.
On the other hand the countries
which have improved their roads,
the schools are easily reached, the
average attendance greater the
efficiency largely increased and
economic consolidation made pos
sible. Shall we improve the roads
and consolidate our schools?

PROPOSED MEDIATION
 AIDS MARKET TRADE
Popular Shares Sell in Large
 Blocks al Opening Session.

10:45 A. M.-The advance in stocks was continued with the opening of the market today. Progress of negotia tions for settlement of the Mexican problem treasured traders, who bought more confidently. A good demand existed for the popular shares, which were taken in large blocks. There was not the same scarcity of offerings, however, that characterized yesterdays trading, and while the movement was almost uni- formly upward the early advances, with few exceptions, were held down to small fractions. The improved Mexican outlook was reflected in ad- vances of a point in Mexican govern ment fives, of 2 IA in the Mexican fours, and of two points in Mexican Petroleum.
 C1ose-The market closed heavy to- day. Early strength was not main . tained, prices yielding on raiding of special issues, selling of stocks re- gently bought to support prices and decreased buying for short account. Speculation dragged in the late af- ternoon the market suffered from the effects of renewed continental pressure against Canadian Pacific and a. sc- we're break in Rock Island collateral bonds. Some shares sustained losses of a point or more.
