suits being as follows: Hogs, per 100,
pounds, $3.50; corn, per bushel. .47
cents; wheat, bushel, 70 cents; bar

35 cents; rye, bushel, Sc cents; milo,

cents oil meal, ton, $50; tankage, ton,
$40; bonemeal, ton, $50; shorts, ton,
s24; alfalfa meal, ton, SIS; chopped
alfalfa, ton, SO; alfalfa hay, ton, sS.
Feed other than alfalfa for con-
venience is termed grain" in the re-
suits given. Where chopped alfalfa
or alfalfa meal was a part Of any
ration il the experiments, all the
grain was ground The alfalfa meal
was mixed with the grain; the
chopped alfalfa was put in the trough
and grain poured over it The feed
was moistened with water after being
put in the trough. The feed was
weighed separately for each lot Of
hogs, at each feeding time. In all ex-
periments the hogs were weighed
every second week.
The animals had access to water at
all times, unless the weather was such
that the water froze. During such
times water was supplied three times
each day or as often as there was any
indication that the hogs cared for it.
Water was supplied in the fields by
means Of gravity water system that
kept fresh water In cement troughs at
all times.
Results: The feeding Of various pro-
portions Of alfalfa in a ration Of corn,
as alfalfa hay, chopped hay and as
meal, indicate that the rations rank as
follows:
/. 100 parts corn, alfalfa hay in a
rack.
2. 90 parts corn, 10 parts chopped
alfalfa
5. 80 parts corn, 10 parts alfalfa
meal.
4. 100 parts corn alone.
5. Is parts corn, Is parts alfalfa
meal.
6. rs parts corn, rs parts chopped
alfalfa.
I. so parts corn, so parts chopped
alfalfa.
8. SO parts corn. SO parts alfalfa
meal.
The first three rations stand closely
together.
OF the many rations tried for fat
tening, none has been found the equal
Of corn and a small percentage Of
alfalfa.
A summary Of results indicates that
the cost of feed to produce a 225-
pound market hog was s3.35 per 100
pounds, and that keeping the hog
until it weighed 325 pounds increased
the cost to s3.57 per 100 pounds. This
includes only the cost of feed and does
not include the cost Of labor, equip
ment, unusual risk, or interest on in.

Girls Trap Catches Mouse.

At last new way has been dis
covered for catching mice. And a
Broadway show girl is the discoverer
of the new device. 1t happens that
she chanced across the scheme purely
by accident. She purchased dozen
oysters in the shell and left them on
the table in the kitchenette Of her
apartment while she went to her
boudoir to have few bouts with the
rouge box When she returned to the
kitchenette she found firmly caught
in the shell of one of the oysters

TOLL OF DEADLY SHEEP TICK
Animals Infested With Parasites Yield
Poor Wool and Are Difficult
to Fatten.

It is more than futile to worry over
the competition Of sheep from South
American pastures if we permit, un-
needed, competitors to draw the life
blood from focks. Thousands Of
fiocks in the United States are being
preyed upon by ticks. Since scab has
been eradicated from some states
some men have relaxed their efforts
and ceased to dip their sheep. Sheep
infested with ticks yield poor wool
and are difficult or impossible to
fatten. There is no excuse for ticks
on a sheep farm. Two thorough dip
pings at intervals Of ten days or two
weeks will kill them; afterward it Is
only necessary carefully to dip any
sheep that may be bought before it is
put with the flock, and the flock will
remain clean. Many an American.

indian Clam Digger Has Trained

In the far northwest lives an Indian
chief who rejoices in the name Of
Prince Of Wales. Moreover, he is the
son Of the duke Of York, a famous old
Hudson Bay chief.
The prince, who has a contract to
supply the local cannery with clans,
has a flock Of geese on his ranch on
Scow bay which he has trained to dig
clans. According to report he often
has to get up in the night and go to
the beach for the clans in order to
take advantage of the turn in the tide,
and on these occasions he Is accom-
panied by his geese.
The prince has graciously permit
ted them to do this, but has taught
them to pick up the whole clans and
drop them into pail He reported
that two or three of the geese have
become so proficient that they do the

Of Challis Wrandall There was some
thing uncanny in the persistence with
which that ruthless despoiler Of peace
forced his way into his dreams, to the
absolute exclusion Of all else. The voy-
age home was made horrid by these
nightly reminders Of man he scarce
ly knew, yet dreaded. He became
more or less obsessed by the idea that
an evil spell had descended upon him
in the shape Of a>ghostly influence.
The weeks passed slowly for Hetty.
There were no letters from Sara, but
an occasional line or so from Mr.. Car

her, nor was he to expect anything
from her. If her intention was to cut

MUM system. In fact, he has calcu-
lated that the abolition Of the day
rate would produce net saving Of
about twenty per cent in labor cost
He Is also convinced that the piece
work system would actually result In
better workmanship because the pres
ent day rates are too low to appeal TO
good shopmen.
This has been the result on most
roads where the piecework system has
been introduced. But it seems to take
a long time to overcome the prejudice
against workman earning more than
the ordinary wages Of his craft even
when his production is corresponding
ly greater. After all, the prime con-
Germ OF an economical management

COST OF FATTENING SWINE
Profitable Ration Is Amount Of Feed

(By w, P. sNYDER.)

(Sy w. e SIS IOE1SI
One of the chief problems before
the pork producer is, What is the most
profitable ration to feed? The proper
standard from which to determine the
most profitable ration is the amount
of feed Of a certain kind required to
produce a unit at which the increase
Is made. These are the same In all
parts Of the country, while the cost OF
the various kinds Of feeds and there
