The Feeding Of Hogs.

(COutlnued from last week
The small. weak bones so COM
monlv seen in many herds Of swine
in Louisiana are very largely due
to a lack of calcium. This can be
supplied at a very low cost in the
form Of finely ground raw rock
phosphate, finely ground oyster
shells or bones, or by simply keep
ing a supply of air slaked lime in
the drinking water. The raw
rock phosphate. oyster shells and
bones contain. not only an ample
supply of calcium but they contain
as we'll supply of phosphorus and
in the proportions needed.
The animal uses energy for two
general purpose, namely, for heat
production to keep the body tem-
perature up to normal and for work
both internal digestion of food
circulation of blood, etc. y, and ex-
ternal as for instance in moving
the body. If more energy-produc-
ing God is fed than is necessary,
the animal will usually fatten, and
this store of fat will be used up
during periods when there is a
lack of energy producing food or
when in case of the brood SOW
nursing her young, it is impossi-
Bile for her to consume enough
food to make good the tremendous
drain on her system. There are
two classes of food which are used
to supply energy to the animal body
and these are carbohydrates and
fats. Common examples of car
bohydrates are starch and sugar,
while every one is familiar with
such fats or oils as cotton seed oil +,
olive oil, lard, tallow, butter fat ,
etc. Both carbohydrates and fats
contain the same chemical elements
though in different proportions,
and both perform the same uses
to the animal. The elements
present are carbon, hydrogen and
oxygen. As these goods contain
no nitrogen, they cannot form
muscles of any of the internal or
gans. They simply furnish the
power to operate the machine"
and the machine is composed of
protein and mineral matter. 1t
is as impossible to develop the
muscular and bony framework of a
pig without protein and mineral
matter as it is to build a steam
engine without iron. ---E. L. lord

Last Interview With von Jagow

8 Loyal Belgium, by E. Waxeiler, which has just been published at Lausanne, I find the following hitherto unpub- Iished report given by Baron Beyons, the former Belgian minister to Ser lin, of his last interview with the German foreign minister, Herr Won Sagow, on August 3.
 Herr Won Jagow exclaimed: Relieve me, j1 Is with bleeding heart that Ger many resorts to such a step as the violation of Belgian neutrality and personally I sincerely regret 1t, but 1t is a question of life and death to us."
 Baron Beyen observed that the from tiers of France were extensive enough to make it unnecessary to pass through Belgium.
 "Frances frontiers" Her Won Jagow replied, "are too strongly fortified. Be- sides what do we ask of you? Simply to permit us to pass through Gnhin- dered, not to destroy your own rail roads. tunnels and bridges and to let us occupy the fortresses we need"
 Baron Beyens said that if Belgium would listen to a similar proposition from France, Germany would surely accuse her of treachery. The implied question remained unanswered and Baron Beyens asked: "Have you any leproach whatever to make against us? Have we not for three-quarters of q century Iulll1leu Ill our OpllSulOHH toward the powers that guaranteed our neutrality? Have we not given Germany many proofs of our .oyal friendship? How does Germany now threaten to repay for this? By making our country the battlefield of Flu roper"
 Herr Won Jagow replied: Germany has no reproach whatever to make against Belgium which has always be- haved in the correctest manner pos- sible"
 s'Then try to realize" said Beyens, ''that Belgium canont possibly give you any other answer than the one she has just given you, or lose her honor among nations. Nations are like indi- viduals and there is no special code of honor for them any more than for individuals You must admit that"
 1T do admit that fully as an indi- vidual." said Herr Won Jagow, nut as foreign minister have no opinicn to offer"

STATE SCHOOL NEWS

The vote on Consolidation in the
Lowes's Cross Roads Section has made
several facts stand out prominently.
First, if consolidation will require
children to go long distances to school,
voters will oppose consolidation unless
their children are transported to the
consolidated school.
Second, the cost of transportation
would be very high if the distances are
great, over the very poor roads.
Third, high cost of transportation
will not be assumed by taxpayers, with
the landowners practically escaping a
share of the increased cost of the i'm
provement.
Fourth, the change that must precede
other changes for the improvement of
the rural school, is a change in the
school-tax system.
Fifth, Consolidation of School and
Good Roads go hand in hand as desirable
betterments in rural life.
Sixth, the decision of two districts
for consolidation and four against con-
solidation, with one district not voting
at all, has thus contributed very material
advantages to the consolidation cause.

head charge in no State should be equal
to the difference here shown unless
something is radically wrong some-
where. The maintenance fund is crea-
ted by the receipts from registration
and license fees, added to direct State
tax of one cent per 500.
In what | have written l have taken
no account of the State aid roads, in
the building of which the State assumes
so per cent. the county 40 per cent, and
the abutting property owners 10 per
cent. These roads, when finished, pass
into the control of the counties, with a
marked difference in their condition af-
ter use when compared with the State
roads. Wear and neglect are every
where apparent just as they are found
in most of the States outside of Mary
land.
Delaware might find much to study
and to adopt from MARYLAND in road
maintenance. In original construction
both States are on a parity in macadam.
Wear of traffic cannot be materially
different in either case. What Mary
land has done Delaware ought to be
able to do, and considering the near
ness to each other, with all the oppor-
tunities that exist for observation and
comparison, it would seem that Della
ware might profit immensely by the
accomplishment of her near neighbOr.

An Ancient Leo of Mutton.

There is a genuine antique leg OF
mutton TO be seen In Bourne, in Lin.
conshire. More than half century
ago a visitor called at a butchers shop
there and purchased a leg of mutton,
saying he would take it away later
But the customer never returned, and
year after year the joint has awaited
him until. hanging from one of the
rafters of the quaint old shop, it has
become one of the fixtures and has
passed with the business from one pro-
prietor to another. During the more
than fifty years Of waiting for its pur-
chaser the leg has withered away and
is now shrunk to the semblance of a
club of knotted wood.-London Taller.
