NO LONGER A GENTLEMAN.
a Device Invented Whereby MIR. Hog
Is Compelled to Earn
His Living.

MIR. Oliver Hill, residing just north
OF town. had on exhibition on the
street last week a device which is
termed hog motor by which the hog
grinds his own feed. The machine is
what might be termed a feeder and
grinder combined, and is somewhat
difiicult to describe any more than to
state that the grain is put into the
top OF a cylinder shaped receptacle
which has buckets at the bottom
where the ground grain enters and
the hog in roofing for the grain re-
wolves the cylinder by the pressure
OF his snoot, thus grinding more
grain, and consequently more root
ing
The exhibition attracted a large
crowd not only OF farmers but our
town people as we'll, who seemed 10
take much interest In seeing the hog
work, and the incident brought to
mind an item that appeared In the
Farmers Almanac way back In 1914:
"Dr. Franklin used to repeat an
observation OF his negro servant
when the doctor was making a tour
to Derbyshire, Lancashire. etc., In
England. Everything. massa,' says

smoke work, dog work, man work

everything work here but the hog.
He eat, he drink. he sleep, he do no

And again, as Mr.. Hill puts 1t, af
ter supper when he is taking his ev
ening smoke, he has the satisfaction
OF watching his hogs grind their sup
per. and when he gets up In the morn
J Ing the hogs are operating the motto
grinding their breakfast. and tn,
!, happy conclusion Is reached that tn,
hog is no longer a gentleman on hi
, farm.
Mr.. Hill states that last winter h
fed bunch of hogs with this motor
and that they received no other feed
ing except what they ground them
r selves. and when he marketed ther

they averaged 100 pounds each, an

WANTS FIGHTING MEN

Railroad

Because he believes the army ana nay

Representative Warren Worth Bailey o.
Pennsylvania introduced in the House
today a bill to put these forces to work

of explanation as to his views on the

Bailey said:

blessed thing actually worth while. We

WHARVES STILL INTACT.
No River Piers Seriously Disabled
by Floating Ice.

Though heavy ice dr,fted with the
river currents during the --eater part
of the month OF February and early in
March the wharves on the river. it is
stated, escaped serious damage and those
that were injured can he quickly re-
paired. Somerset beach, the longest pier
on the Potomac, is said to have had a
few piles broken, but they do not in any
way interfere with the use of the wharf.
AS general thing. following j heavy
freeze about half the wharves on the
river have to be rebuilt and their escape
this winter is looked upon as remarkable.
/. The wharf at Winthrope, Md. better
known as stump Neck, where the United
States Marine Corps has a rifle range
and station. IS to be rebuilt. but ice had
nothing TO do with making its rebuilding
necessary. The pier. which was built
about sin years ago. has been unfit for
service for several months past and the
steamers have had to land freight there
by small boats. 1t is stated the contract
for rebuilding the pier will be awarded
shortly and the work on it started in
the latter part of the spring.
