Local and Personal Mention
THE PIERCES.

Last Saturday night, the first number OF
leI5-l6 Lyceum course was given, and, as
we predicted, the people were given an OPP
portunity to see two finished artists and to
compare their work with what had been
presented before.
There was smoothness and finish about
the work of the Pierces that held the audi
ence from the start and before the first act
was over they were. prime favorites
Ii is hard matter to describe such a
performance. Those who were there have
the scenes indelibly impressed upon their
memory, while those who were not could
never be made to see no matter how graphic
the description.
The fact that every number of the pro-
gramme was encored was sufficient to show
that these artists had captured Ducktown
and should they appear here again they
will receive a warm welcome.
The Y. M. C. A. management deserves a
word of praise Ter this effort on behalf OF
our people Not being money-maklng
proposition-bu but OTTER loosing one--the
directors strive each year to bring higher
class Entertainments than on the previous
wear. The well-6lled house, last Saturday
night. was an indication that their efforts
are being appreciated and they are well
pleased.

Pig CLUB
Why Not Join This Club and
Learn The Scientific Art OF
Live Stock Feeding.

A new feature Of agricultural
progress, in Marion Crittenden
county is a boys pig club. Mr..
j. Robt. Bird, county agent, is
cooperating with the state pig
club agent in the organization Of
the club, and a large member
ship is assured.
All boys between the age Of
ten and eighteen should Join the
pig club. Those that are mem
bers of the corn club should join
the pig club also All members
can make themselves some mon
ey by following instructions in
feeding their pigs, and the boys
should welcome the opportunity
TO make money for themselves
Prizes are given also and a boy
has the chance to double his pro
fit by winning one Of the prizes.
Furthermore, he learns how tC
care for and feed live stock.
This knowledge alone is worth
many times the effort he will
have TO give to raising his pig
and reading instructions.
Pig club members in other
states have made good profits,
and some of them are saving
their money and will go TO col
lege on their earnings from grow.
ing hogs.
Girls join the pig club too and
have made good records some
times beating the boys.
Last year pig club member:
won in every class in which they
entered at the Louisiana Stat,
Fair in Alabama. In GeorgiI
they have made wonderful rec
ords. There ought TO be as gooC
results in Kentucky.
In case a boy wants TO buy
pure bred pig, the breeders ar,
making special prices to pii
club members which will affor
a great saving.
For further information writ
to T. +. Stokes. State pig clul
agent, Experiment Station, Lex
