THE. PRODUCTION, or HOGS.

TO produce pork prof1tably
hogs must feed and Craze con-
tinuousIy on pastures and. crops
} particularly planted for them, is
the advice Of experts Of the
} farmers cooperative branch Of
, the bureau of plant industry,
department of agriculture. Very
seldom is the growing Of hogs
for slaughter a source Of profit
unless proper grazing and feed
ing methods are followed.
In the spring. summer and fall
there are. many. crops for pas
turing hogs. but during the win
ter the crops to select from are
limited. On almost every farm
the production and keeping of
hogs in winter is expensive and
generally it is not profitable. for
the reason that large quantities
of corn are fed without products
Of green crops. More winter
grazing is needed. for which
many crops are, adapted. The
most reliable are. however. rape,
rye. oats. wheat and barley.
For grazing purposes these
pasturing crops for hogs should
be sown on specially well drain
ed and prepared land that is
either rich or has received q lib
eral application Of manure. Good
winter pasturage is not obtain
ed except on the best drained
lands.
The seeding should be heavy
to insure thorough planting.
The young plants will grow
slowly in the winter and many
plants will be needed to furnish
plenty of pasture. Crimson clov-
er will do we'll with rape. rye,
oats. wheat and barley and will
mean an improvement on the
land. = -.. .r--

one OF the stars of the National League

at once to the team in Boston. Mar

he would report at the offices OF the

IF his demands are not then answered
he will depart for Havana to care Tor

The utter failure OF Detroit to hold

those with whom We have talked there
are row but two teams in the race
Washington and Philadelphia. The pre-
ponderance is still with the Athletics,
although there are still many who are
ranked as capable Judges who think
that unless the mackmen's pitching
staff can gain many points in general
effectiveness it cannot offset the ad-
vantage which THE Griffmen will gain
through the desperateness of their play
and their ability to get runs on the
least possible number Of hits.

AGRICULTURE EXPERIMENTS
CONDUCTED BY SCHOOL

Traverse City-Practical work is
being directed by the teacher of agri-
culture in the Traverse City High
School. A number of projects were
laid out early in the calendar year
for the students in the agricultural
courses, and now the reports are be-
ing received. One project which has
proved very successful was conducted
by William Hanshaw, who expert
mented with the raising Of an acre
of potatoes. He selected the seed and
prepared the ground which adjoined
another field, which was used for
check purposes. The potatoes were
given the same treatment in both
fields, except that more attention was
given to spraying upon the expert
ment acre. The difference in yield be-
tween the two plots of ground was
at the rate of "a bushels to the acre.
The sprayed plot made returns at the
rate of 224 bushels to the acre and
the unsprayed field made returns of
100 bushels to the acre. At current
prices the sprayed potatoes harvested
from an acre were worth $500 more
than those taken from the unsprayed
field. This is considered proof of the
value of spraying. Seed has been
selected from the experiment field for
next years crop, and it is believed
that even more favorable results will
be secured.
