Moving picture advertisements,
shown upon the great ocean liners,
constitute a new method OF advertis-
ing which seems to promise good re
suits. Large firms are having films
made, picturing thei1. places Of bus
mess and the products handled. The
steamship companies which are con-
Gttnually alert to supply diversion for
their passengers to lessen the tedium
of the trip. are glad to exhibit these
films in their salons.
Some of these pictures are exceed
ingly valuable in showing the pro
cesses OF manufacturing One of the
most complete is. provided BY an au-
tomobile company 1t depicts the
different processes in the manufac-

Growing Forage for Hogs.

An acre of rape, cowpeas, alfalfa
Or other good forage crop will support
from ten to twelve tifty-pound hogs
for three or four months says Pro-
lesser r. r. Snapp in a recent circu-
issued by the West Virginia expert
,ment station. The author points OH
that where good forage is available,
growing hogs need but little grain
and thai hogs can be made to put on
8flesh at mnchles cost where they are
given pasturage along with the grain.
rather than grain alone Many West
Virginia farms have small fields, an
acre or two in area, that are more or
less inaccessible and difficult TO han
die. These strips could be planted TO
hog forage crops with a very small
amount Of labor, if a good fence is
provided. the hogs can harvest the
crops for themselves.
This circular-No. 10. gives a
complete list Of suitable forage crops
together with planting and cultural
directions. 1t is free Of charge and
may be secured BY addressing the ag-
siculture editor at Morgantown.

the national motto Of Salvador.
There are few places In the world
where YOU can see such sturdy women

The women are tie merchants or

bear contain their wares, incredible
