How To Care For Brood Sows

The care of the brood sow is very
important if one expects to make
much profit from hogs. First the
brood sow should be fed the best feed
that can be provided. Bone and mus
Gle is the foundation Of hog. | pre-
fer corn, oats and wheat, ground and
mixed about equally. Alfalfa hay or
ground alfalfa sbold be fed with
grain of any kind.
The sow should not be fed much
corr nor any great quantity of any
kind Of feed during the last ten days
or two weeks before farrowing. She
should have a well ventilated house
! with dry bedding. prefer individual
houses as at narrowing time one sow
is liable to trouble another. Hog
houses built "a" shape are best as
the sow is not so likely to kill her
pigs. No great amount of bedding
should be given for many pigs are
smothered because Of too much bed
ding.
Houses built in "a" shape out of
shiplap lumber will cost from $5 to
81, according to size, but these houses
are warm and comfortable. If the
weather is cold at farrowing time
lantern hung in the shed will keep it
warm.
The sow should not be fed much
after farrowing for few days but
should be given all the pure, clean
water she wants to drink. After the
pigs are week or ten days old it is
safe to put the SOW on full feed again.
The sow and pigs should be fed equal
parts of corn, wheat and oats, ground.
Economy hog powders are the best
hog powders / know of. Reed Boi-

orers take pride. In that time Mr.
Parker has been absent from his place

were unavoidable. He has seen the
school grow under his constant and
untiring labor to twice its formec
size and he carries with him the cor
dial good will and appreciation of all
who have laboredowith him in this
noble enterprise. George viii Rob
ertson has been elected as super
intendent for the coming year and will
have the cordial support of Mr.. Parl;

DRINK IT'S WORST FOE.

these three deadly foes is drink" +"
David Lloyd George, chancellor of the

federation, the members of which were
unanimous in urging that in order to
meet the national requirements at the
present time there should be a total
prohibition through the war of the

should apply not only to public houses,
but also to private clubs, so as to op-
crate equally with all classes of the

MEXICO HAS CHANCE
FOR FISH HATCHERY


If Mexico wants the state fish
hatchery located here it might easily
receive the benefit of the $4,000
which the state will expend on the
site N the next few years and at the
same time acquire public park that
will bring thousands of visitors to the
city.
FREE WATER SUPPLY AND
ACCESSIBILITY TO A RAILROAD"
are the two requisites according to
statement of John P. Woods, Of
st. Luis, president of the fish COM
mission and one of the three men who
will select the site. The C. q A. or
Burlington lakes, could likely be
secured for water and their accesi-
bility to the railroad is ideal.
The Commercial Club of the city
may land this beautiful park if just
a little interest is shown in the mat
ter. There is nothing difficult in the
situation that should block Mexico
getting this hatchery.
Several cities are already making
an effort to secure this hatchery. The
railroad lakes with their large supply
of water and accessibility to the
tracks as well as the central location.
of this city and its splendid railroad
facilities makes it an ideal point for
this institution. Mexico has the
water and the state. With little con
certed effort it is quite likely we can
secure this hatchery. 1t is at least
worth making try for.

CREW OF "a LOST.

Honulu, Hawaii, March 27.-The
American submarine, F-4, lost since
Thursday morning off Honolulu Har-
bor,was located Friday afternoon. Her
oic efforts were made to raise the
stricken craft, but after having been
submerged for more than 80 hours it
was regarded as highly doubtful
whether any cf her crew of 21 men re-
manned alive.
To lift the little vessel to the sur
face, it was found necessary to send to
the Pearl Harbor naval station for a
derrick and crane. This involved
much loss of time and it was thought
probably that the fate of the crew
might not be determined until day
light.
