To one Of these four groups belongs

What about a classification Of the

there not be species OF this lately
evolved genus Of males in favor Of the

First, there is the humbie-minded

every plank in the suffrage platform
simply because he feels his own insig-

to give up his own vote for the cause.
He usually marries a militant

tion has been. There is no difference
The clothes for youth, the clothes for
middle age, have been the same
But this year there is a difference
between the clothes of youth and the
clothes Of maturity And the difference
has come about as a result OF the fash

evening frocks, young and old alike

with regard to complexion rather than
age.
But with heavy brocades and rich
veIvets in high favor for evening wear,
the situation has of necessity changed.
The debutante in a frock OF brocade,
weighted down WIN jet and gold and
silver lace, is out OF the question And
as this is a season of brocade and gold
and silver and Jet, the debutante must
have her own styles.
She has. Not only does the fabric OF
her frocks differ from the fabrics Of
maturity; the styles differ too. For OBJ
yiously the fashions that could be at
tractively worked out in heavy and rich
fabrics lose force when developed in
sheer and thin fabrics

Avoid every possible way Of carry
ing infection to your hogs
An ounce OF prevention is worth a
pound Of cure" is an old saying, but in
this case it is everything.
The object OF the pig clubs is to
show the boys how better and cheap
er hogs may be produced by the use
OF improved blood and the growing Of
forage crops. Il also aims to encour-
age the homecoming Of meats and the
growing Of forage crops while discour-
aging the use Of high priced feeds. The
work of the boys pig clubs is planned
to complement the work Of the boys
corn clubs by showing the boys how
they can profitably sell their corn
through hogs
The boys in these clubs learn how
to Judge hogs and to select them for
breeding or market purposes They
also learn practical ways in the man
agement feeding, sanitation and pre-
yention OF diseases Of swine. all Of
which information proves valuable
with respect to other forms Of i've
stock work.
A not unimportant detail of the
work to the boys themselves is the
money which they are enabled to earn
by marketing their product They also
come to realize sooner or later that
farm life has it's interesting side, and
that success in the farming business
is well worth while.
Any boy between the ages of ten
and eighteen may become a member

at least one pig If he becomes a mem
