When you buy an automobile you buy
two kinds Of service. First:-The service
given and guaranteed by the car itself.
Second:-The service given by the maker
and the dealer while the car is in use.
The service the Maxwell car gives is
known. $4,000 satisfied Maxwell owners
have given the car the rough and tumble acid
test of fully eighteen months service. The
Maxwell has shown that it is able to stand
up under the severest use. In cities, over
country roads, through mud and sand and up
the steepest mountains, the 1915 Maxwell
has made good for $4,000 owners.
THE SERVICE THAT THE MAXWELL
MOTOR COMPANY GIVES
The service that the Maxwell car gives
cannot be questioned. Any automobile
owner from time to time requires service

Hogs are the most economical pro-
ducers of meat Of any animals on the
farm when they are properly fed, but
when they are not, they produce meat
at greater cost than any other class
of farm animals. 1t is not economical
to keep the hogs shut up In small
pen and feed them nothing but grain.
Ip nature they have the run OF the for
est and consume such feeds as roots,
herbs, grasses and grains in their sea-
son We often handle hogs as though
we thought they could not consume
any kind OF feed other than grain
Hogs on many farms are kept In small
enclosures or in small pens where
they can not receive any kind OF green
feed and hence the gains that are
made must be made with the more ex
pensive grain feeds. 1t requires from
~ to lbs. OF grain to produce gains
with feeds under these conditions,
which leaves but little profit when
grains are high priced; while under
pasture conditions pound of gain
may be produced with 21S to lbs. of
grain. There should always be pro-
vlded pasture crops for the hogs the
same as for any other kind OF live
stock The farm should always be
fenced so that the hogs can be turn
ed into any of the fields after the
crops are removed and obtain such
feed as may be left from the harvest.
An abundance Of suoculent green
feed should be provided throughout
the summer. During June such crops
as soy-beans, cow-peas, sorghum and
sweet corn may be sown for the hogs
and will be ready for them from the
middle of July and through August
the most difficult seasons OF the year
to provide pasture. OF these pastures
soy-beans are the most satisfactory,
for the hogs like that pasture better
than cow-peas or sorghum. Hogs will
eat the leaves OF soy-beans much more
readily than they will the leaves Of
cow-peas Sow the soy-beans In rows
and keep cultivated until well grown.
Turn the hogs In when the soy-beans
are Just forming the pods. At this
stage the hogs will begin by foraging
on the leaves, and the pods will con-
tinue to form and ripen. even though
some of the leaves are being fed OF,
and the hogs will obtain a greater
amount OF nutriment per acre than
they would II held from the soy-beans
until they are ripe. A greater gain
may be made per acre than by leaving

then turning In the hogs, Do not turn
in too many per acre for the greatest
good can be obtained from the crop II
1t not pastured so heavily, but that IL
will last for at least six weeks. Ordi-
narily from to ~ shoats may be turn
ed on per acre. Better results will be
obtained II the forage crop is supple
mented with some grain, such as corn.
Feed the grain, such as corn, at the
rate OF 2l9 to 3 per cent Of the live
weight OF the hogs For example, II
the number OF head be IL and the total
weight should be about 1900 pounds.
the total feed for the day would be 80
to 36 lbs. of grain in addition TO the
forage consumed. Ordinarily hogs
will not make gains on forage unless
the forage crop is supplemented with
grain; but with the addition OF little
grain very cheap gains may be made.
Sorghum may be sown as either soy
beans or cow-peas. 1t contains too
much coarse material to be well util-
lied as a forage crop for hogs. Al
though it is a coarse forage 1t is better
than nothing, and, in fact, IL pastured
at the right stage may be very use
full crop. When intended for hog for
age II should be sown with the grain
drill with every hose running and at
the rate of one bushel per acre. Turn
into II when 1t is about inches high
and at the rate Of 10 to Is shoats per
acre, according to crop. This crop
should be supplemented with some pro-
tein feed, such as cottonseed meal
with copperas. If copperas is fed with
the cottonseed meal at the rate OF one
pound of copperas for every SO pounds
OF the meal no harmful results will
follow its use. Make a solution OF the
copperas by putting . pounds Of the
copperas In so gallons OF water, and
then feed OF this solution 2 quarts for
every pound of the cottonseed meal
that is fed. For hogs that are forag-
ing on sorghum. feed from Y to Y lb.
OF cottonseed meal for every 100 lbs.
OF live weight. In addition to the cot.
tonseed meal they should also be fed
from to ears OF corn per head per
day.
BY following the above plan hogs
may have plenty OF pasture throughout
the summer months when 1t is usually
most dificult to obtain suitable forage
crops for this class OF animals. Gains
will be made very cheaply and the
profits will be large.-C. A. Wilson.

Old Landmark Burns.

At the sound of the FIRE alaEm about
ten thirty o'clock on last Tuesday night
a large part of the population of Som
erville gathered in the northern part
of town where the old Simon Walker
residence was on fire. 1t caught from
some unknown cause in an out build
ing and the wind was blowing exactly
toward the residence proper and it was
soon in flames. Work to check these
flames was to no avail and those who
had gathered set to work to save the
contents of the building. Most of the
furniture and other things in the house
were saved, but the entire building
rapidly burned to the ground. 1t was
occupied as a residence by a negro
doctor, Powell, and was owned by the
Catron and Walker heirs, the former
living in the fourth district and the
latter in Memphis.
Thls is the first residence to burn in
this city since that of H. S. Shaw in
the extreme southern part of town
some two years ago, and is the fourth
to burn in decade or longer, the last
being those of F. H. Lightfoot and
Mrs. Laura Stalnback on Somerville
street.
While the Walker house was burning
large and dangerous sparks were being
carried by the immense suction from
the fire and the strong northeast wind
to other property some hundred yards
away and these other houses in the
danger zone were constantly watched
by their owners and others and were
kept wet with water applied to their
roofs, the long dry spell of five weeks
making them particularly suspectible
to danger of fire.

Newell. who in 1912 sailed as Baptist
Missionary from America across to
France, she az you know was the first
lady Missionary to sail from the Liberty
Land across the seas. Her mission
life being in the hearts of the parents
when the deceased was a child she was
named for the noted missionary. This
good woman who has gone from US
was one of the best women we ever
knew. She was a cultured woman, and
best of all, she was Christian mother,
a clean character and gentle spirit.
She never spoke harmful Of anyone
but always had good kind word for
every one. She loved her children,
her church and her God. She is gone
but her influence still fingers and will
be felt for years to come. Her funeral
was conducted by Rev. j. " Carlton,
her former pastor, and the body was
laid way to rest in Betheny cemetery.

Courage VS.. Decency.

The other day an excited individual
rushed into newspaper Office with a
choice bit of scandal burning his tongue.
1t made no difference to this person
that the scandal affected the daughter
of his neighbor that the mother of the
girl was seriously ill-that the brother
was just entering what promised to be
a successful professional career. The
scandal was rich in flavor. and he
wanted TO see it in the paper. He told
the editor about it, with every evidence
of the keen relish of the scandal con-
nCisseur, but impressed upon the news
paper man that the source of his in
formation must be kept inviolably
secret. When the paper came out, the
man returned to demand why the story
hadn't been printed. Short, sharp
words followed, and the visitor called
the editor coward and left, vowing
that man who was afraid to print the
news had no right to be an editor. To
our mind, that editor was brave man.
The informer who demanded that his
name be kept secret, was the coward.
The editor ran paper in a small town.
So closely related we're the lives Of the
inhabitants, that the editor knew every
detail of the story before his visitor
called on him. But he could see no
profit for himself nor glory for his
paper in printing an item that would
bring sorrow to the gray hairs Of
father, disgrace to brother and pro-
badly serious consequences to a sick
mother. If the news appetites of his
readers were so voracious. he thought.
as to demand this costly food, be would
refuse to pay the price. The editor
was right. Many things he has to print
which he would rather leave unsaid.
but the scandal which has only its
''spice" to recommend it should have
no place in the columns of self-res-
pecting paper. We would rather build
than tear down. We would rather
print the things that help and encour-
age and uplift than to hold up the mis-
takes of some unfortunate to the seorn
and contempt of his neighbors.
Decency is not lack of courage. II it
were. we would rather be decent than
courageous.

The most welcome harbinger of
spring comes in the shape of an
announcement from L. M. Good
stadt, of New York City, that the
Ben Greet Woodland Players are to
visit US this year. Open air per-
formances given by this excellent
company of Shakespearean players
are an annual event throughout the
country, and Shakespeare has never
been more pleasantly presented in
the open air than by Mr.. Greet's
players. ~
The natural settings of real trees
and shruhbery used as back
ground combined with the artistic
lighting effects at night are treat
worth remembering.
The company engaged by Mr..
Greet is composed of players whose
talents are. sublimely suited to open
air presentations. And it is gener-
ally known that their performances
are far more convincing than those
of company which depends large.
ly upon the assistance of four walls,
painted scenery, and the psycholo.
gy of a switchboard.

JUST WHAT IS 0STEoPATHY?

1t is customary 20 discredit the
thing we don't understand: or
which we don't believe in. And
what We believe in is largely a
matter Of training or association.
What we understand is what We
hay STUDIED or had explained to
us. Have you EVER seriously turn-
ed your attention to OsteOpathy
as means Of helping you in your
bodily distress?
OSTEOPATHY has been misrep-
resented so often by persons with
their own AK to grind-often d
literal ak that not as many folks
know of its true worth as really
should for their own health's sake.
OSTEOPATHY isa system of treat
ment whereby pressure or relief is
directed to the nerve centers con-
trolling disturbed tissues, and re-
ducing them to their natural r
normal state. This process iber-
ates the natural remedies manu-;
featured by the body itself. In
other words, it is THE REINFOCE-
MENT OF NATURE. Osteopathy
has been practiced for over THIR-
TY YEARS, has been upheld by the
courts when introduced as evil
dence, and has CURED THOUS-
ANDS of persons who have suffer-
ed with "chronic" and so-called
favourable" diseases. No drugs are
internally administered Manipu-
Iation, diet, hygiene and exercise
are the most important weapons
of the Osteopath in combating
physical ailments. The principles
of this manipulative surgery can
be understood by anyone very
easily.-adv.
