and kept record OF his pig or pigs for
at least four months in order to com
pete for prize.
g. The members of the club must
agree to study the instructions of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture that will be sent them.
Z. Each member must show at least
one pure-bred pig at the county exhib-
it must show the winners at the State
Fair.
This is the plan on which the work
in Georgia is based. In addition to the
prizes at the State Fair next fall, therl
will be special section for pig clubs
at the Georgia-Florida fair at Valdos-
ta Members of the clubs-girIs can
join as we'll as boys-will have three
sets of prizes to compete for, at the
county fairs, at the State Fair, and in
judging class at the State Fair.
Many of the breeders of pure-brnd
hogs in Georgia have agreed to sell
members only pure-bred gifts at wean-
ing time next spring for $1,000. Thesl
pigs usually sell for SIS to $25, but the
breeders are cooperating to get thc
club started on a pure-bred basis. This
is a campaign for better hogs; for
more pure-bred and registered hogs;
for more meat and prosperity in Geor-
gia.-Call Of The South.

Boys Pig Clubs are now being or
ganized in twele counties in Georgia
for the purpose of building up a pure
tired hog industry that will reflect
credit on the state; that will produce
more meat and keep more money at
home. 1t is the next step in the Boys
Corn Club by which the boy is taught
how to market his crop on four legs in
stead OF four wheels.
At the present time Georgia is spend
ing about forty million dollars. a year
Tor meat, in addition to what is pro-
ouced in the state. Most of it comes
from the corn belt states where it
costs mere to produce than it can be
produced for in Georgia-where more
can be produced in a given length Of
time than in states farther north. In
other words, Georgia spends a large
sum for something that can be produc-
ed better and cheaper at home.
The objects Of the Boys Pig Clubs
are as follows:
l. To stimulate an interest in swine
production and to teach how to raise
cheaper and better hogs by the use Of
improved blood and the growing of for
age crops.
2. To increase the number Of hogs
raised en- the farm in order that meat
raised at home and that required to
feed the extra farm labor may be pro-
duced instead of being bought. Il IS
estimated that Georgia spends forty
million dollars a year for meat, il
addition to what is raised in the state

3. To complement the work of Boys
Corn club by showing the boys how
they can proftably market their cora
in the form Of live stock.
4. To teach the boy how to judge
hcgs, and to select them for breeding
or market purposes.
.. To encourage the growing of TO-
age crops and discourage the use 4
high-prioed feeds.
6. To instruct the boys in a prac-
teal way in the management, reediu8

The Following Are the Rules That

County.
l. Any boy between the ages Of tea
and eighteen may become a member.
2. Each boy must secure at least one
Ipure-bred pig if he becomes a member
Of the club.
3. Each boy must care for his pig

Democratic leaders are indulging in
some talk of defeating Reed Smoot in

successor of Isaac Stephenson, of Wis
consin, and Coe I. Crawford, of South
Dakota But they are not counting up

will have two opponents in the Repub-
lican primary. Benjamin Dimmic1
and Representative Ainey. Mr.. Dim
mick is being supported by the anti
Penrose element in the Republican
party; Mr.. Ainey, who had the support
in 1912 Of Progressives as we'll as reg
ulars, is making a get togther" cam
paign in the hope of Munseyizing the
Republicans Of the state.
The leading candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination is Representative A.
Mitchell Palmer, who expected to be 4
member of the cabinet, and was offered
one Of the only two positions in the
cabinet, he, a sa Quaker, could not
accept-that of Secretary of War. He
could not have accepted the post of Sec
rotary Of the Navy, but was not offered
that. However, he is receiving the full
support of President Wilson in his race
for the Senate, this evidencing in a
practical way in his having been given
control of Pennsylvania Federal pat
ronage. Mr.. Palmer is being opposed
for the nomination by William Abbott
Whitman, a business man Of Reading.
Then thare is Clifford Pinchot. Des
pite the embarrassment caused by the
allegation that he has only a paper
residence in the state, Mr.. Pinchot is
campaigning for the Progressive nom
ination and probably will get it.
All indications point to a three P's"
contest in the election-Penrose, Pal
Tier, and Pinchot. What the outcome
will be no sane man in the state or out
Of it will attempt to prophesy at this
time.
In no other state are political condi-
tons so uncertain so chaotic There
has been no settling down since the up
heaval of 1912. In municipal contests
the Republican machine has come
back" in measure, but there still is
bitter Republican opposition to Pen
Iroseism;" there still is a Washington
Progressive party financed and direct
.e1 by William Finn, and there still is
a Guffey wing of the Democratic party.
Roosevelt won Pennsylvania by
plurality of 51,SO7 over Wilson. TAFT
received 273,305 votes, 174,121 less
than Roosevelt. Even his most enthuS-
iastic supporters do not believe Pin
chot will be able to poll anything like
the Roosevelt vote.
Many Pennsylvania Republicans have
returned to their old allegiance, but
the Progressive organization still has
life. 1t is possible that Pinchot may
poll a sufficiently large vote to defeat
Senator Penrose, even if he cannot be ,
elected himself.
1t is this possibility that gives Pres
ident Wilson and the Democratic ma
tional committee their hope that Pal
mer will be able to obtain the plurality
necessary for his lection.
