WHY RAISE HOGS?
% Not Put All Your Eggs in One
Basket,

The disastrous results following the
hog cholera scourge last year, and the
more OF less unsatisfactory conditions
surrounding the feeding and marketing
of cattle is directing more and more
of the local farmers to look for a SUD-
stantial safe crop which they may
count upon with surety to net them
equally as much or more than their
feeding operations.
The most logical subs utute for the
hog and beef method of cashing farm
produce which is now available, is the
canning factory To local growers
within five or six miles radius of Mar
shalltown this proposition is especially
adapted While it is generally ac-
cepted by farmers that the fertility OK
their farms can not be maintained py
selling their crops harvested. and IS
true in regard to general field crops;
it is. however in the matter of pro-
duce for canning factory removing less
fertility than by the method of selling
MS crops thru stock. 1t is a fact that
the different crops Of produce such as
sweet corn tomatoes, cabbage and
pumpkin contain on an average OF 81
per cen, water. the balance being prin-
cipally in the nature of crude fiber
which contains little or no fertility;
hence it is shown that there is not any
more fertility removed by the above
crops than there is by dairying. BY
raising a small amount of stock the
fertility of the soil can be actually in
creased in this way from year to year.
1t is we'll known fact in the old coun-
try, that the most productive and
highest priced land is largely used in
the truck raising business.
With the method Of intensive farm
irg and proper management. these
crops can be made TO yield large re-
turns at the following prices as given:
Sweet corn-s7 per ton.
Tomatoes-s10 per ton.
Cabbage-s6 per ton.
Pumpkins so per ton.
Hom:ny corn-70 cents a bushel.

1t will be welcome news to the women
Of Marshalltown and vicinity to learn
that the American College OF Dressmak-
ing of Kansas City, Mo-, is going to open
up branch school here. This is the same
institution that so many Of our women
have seen advertised 80 extensively in
the different fashion magazines for so
many years. There is not another insti-
tuition of it's kind in America that is SO
universally recognized as the leader in
this particular branch Of feminine en-
deavor. They have upwards of 10000
students enrolled in their home study
courses living in every civilized country
on the globe. This large enrolment Of
itself speaks volumes for their superior
course Of instruction.
The phenomenal success Of this insti-
tuition is due to two reasons: First, their
splendid system of drafting, cutting, fit
ting, ETC., and second, the method of
teaching. Students Of the American Col
lege are taught in the same manner as
those in Public Schools or Universities
and use text to study from. The old
method as used by other dressmaking
schools-that of teaching orally without
text-has not proven to be success, as
has been demonstrated a great many
times. With the American System, the
student has Is complete lessons to finish,
in addition to her 40 days training in
actual practice in the sewing and tailor
ing departments. Students are given an
examination on each lesson to prove that
they are qualified on each division Of the
work. Other schools having no text, re-
ouire the students to pass no examina-
ton and the majority Of them leave the
school with little knowledge of the work.
A great many Colleges, Universities,
School to be open Monday, February q,

American College Of Dressmaking
To Open a Branch School at Marslal!toxn

Girls Schools and Academies have
adopted the American System on account
of the unique method of teaching and
RECENTLY the course was adopted by the
United States Government for use in the
Indian Schools. The supervisor Of sew
ing recently stated in one of her letters
that since using the American System
she finds it makes great deal OF differ
ence in teaching and she likes the course
better all the time, and thinks it is by far
the best course she has ever seen. The
Kansas State Agricultural College OF
Manhattan, Kansas, has adopted the
American System for use in the Unlver-
sity Extension Department: Another
endorsement comes from the librarian at
Washington, D. c., in which ne states
that the text book the american Ores
Maker is the best that they have on
their shelves. Other endorsements come
from the best authorities on the, subject
such as Miss Wright, Superviso Of
Sewing in the Greeley, Colorado, High
School; Miss Myrtle L. Wilson, super
visor of Sewing of the Little Rock
Schools, and a great many others.
In addition to the full course, short
sewing course will be given, where the
women can bring their material and be
taught to do their own sewing. A great
many of our women are already familiar
with this plan and no doubt will take ad-
vantage of same.
The Supervisor in charge OF the
American College at Marsha!ltown will
