YOUNG HOGS BEST
FOR MAKING PORK
Dean Henry of Wisconsin Gath
ers Considerable Data on
This Interesting Question.

Young animals make more pounds
of gain from their food than when
older. Dean Henry of Wisconsin
gathered a lot Of data on this and
found that 3S-pound pigs required 293
pounds of feed to make 100 pounds of
gain, 7S-pound pigs required 400
pounds of feed; 128-pound pigs, 437
pounds of feed; 174-pound pigs, 4S2
pounds; 226-pound pigs, 49S pounds;
271-pound pigs, 511 pounds, and for
the 330-pound hogs it took 535 pounds
Of food to make the 100 pounds OF
gain, or nearly twice as much as for
the 3S-pound pig. This emphasizes
the Importance of pushing the hogs
from the start in order to make the
most economical gains. 1t has been
found at the North Dakota expert
ment station that April pigs can be
made to weigh 200 to $50 pounds by
November 1.

delves, and the more industriously and
intelligently, the more to the benefit OF
his fellow men. Many humble tiller
of the soil has left behind him infor-
nation of untold value, sometimes dis
covered largely as the result of mere
accident.
How much, after all, do we know
about the elements which go to make
up the soil as yet? The geologist, for
instance, has been able to tell us much,
and yet is there not as much that he
can in no way explain? Hugh Miller
observes that the richest corn lands of
England, those at Strathmore, and the
poorest, those at Milbury, are both
underlaid by the same rock, the old
red sandstone. Yet many a man will
stoutly affirm that the character of
the underlying rock determines in a
great measure the character of the
soil above.
Some say that certain soils are abso-
lutely essential for certain crops, yet
learned scientist utterly disproved
the statement by growing grapevines
upon as many different varieties Of
soil as he could obtain, and drying and
burning their leaves and submitting
their ashes to chemical analysis; so
demonstrating that they contained the
same substances in almost precisely
the same proportions, no matter what
80 saI, J,
had been grown. Is the composition,
of the soil in reality vastly more COM
pick than we realize?

and useful books, and inquiry into the

1t is related of certain wel[intend-

great many years ago, that he de-
termined to set to digging for coal in
the vicinity of the hamlet where he
lived. His judgment was poor, of
course, for no traces Of coal had ever
been found in that locality; but his
courage was good, and he continued to
bore with will, until at last he start
ed an artesian we'll, which has contin-
ued to run to this day, and which has
proved of great value to the neighbOr-
hood ever since.
Was it not so, too, with that foolish
old Spaniard, De Soto, who set out to
find the fountain Of perpetual youth?
His first purpose failed, but he never

T|LLMAN CASE
IS SUBMITTED
YOUNG MAN OF LOGAN COUNTY
CHARGED WITH NUMBERING
HIS SWEETHEART.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Little Rock.-The case of Arthur
Tillman, who was convicted in the
Logan County Circuit Court of muir
dering his sweetheart, Amanda Ste.
phens, March 10, 1913, was argued be-
fore the Supreme Court. The case
was up for argument once before, but
on account of the exceptions of the
defendant to the instructions Of the
court to be noted, the case had to be
reargued on that point.
Judge Robert j. White of Paris, and
Gen. w. e. Atkinson of Clarksville,
former attorney general, presented the
case IN behalf of the defense, while
the state was represented by Assistant
Attorney General John P. Streepy and
A, S, Hays Of Russellville.
The theory Of the defense Is that
Tillman is innocent Of the crime, and
that 1t was committed by another man.
Counsel for the defense offer to in
troduce testimony showing that an
other man would have had motive as
great as that which the state has at
tempted to fasten upon Tillman, for
the commission OF the crime, but the
court ruled it out.
The Tillman case attracted consid-
cradle attention about this time last
year when the body Of Amanda Ste
phens, the daughter Of a prominent
farmer, was found in an old well near
Delaware. Rocks we're tied to the
body with telephone wires, and there
was evidence TO show that she had
been shot.
Suspicion pointed to Arthur Tillman
who was known to have had improper
relations with the girl A warrant was
sworn out for his arrest, and he was
taken into custody AT first opportu-
nifty he escaped from the officers and
was later recaptured and brought back
for trial.
