What the effect may be upon the South American
states if the United States goes in strongly for

South Americans. Suspicion of the United States has

MIIITARISM AND IT'S EFFECT.

That the conversion of the American republic into

relations this country with the South American states

between Chile and Bolivia and Peru, there has

ment of Agriculture.)
There are three general methods of
producing hogs for market: Dry-lot
feeding; feeding on pasture and for
age crops; and feeding on dairy by
products. BY dry-lot feeding is meant
feeding in confined pens; forage
crops include alfalfa, Bermuda grass,
blue grass, etc, and the crops which
require to be planted each year; and
dairy by-products are skim milk, whey
and buttermilk
A ration for a young, growing ami
NAL requires a larger percentage of
protein than one for fattening or for
mature animals. AS the shote increases
in age and size the protein may be
gradually cut down until the stand
ard for fattening hog is reached.
Forage crops have been used more
economically as source of protein
than purchased feeds and have the adj
vantage of supplying it in palatable,
succulent form. Alfalfa probably fur
nishes the cheapest and best forage
for swine when it can be grown Even
during winter alfalfa hay can be fed
in racks and with ear corn furnishes
a well-balanced feed for almost all
kinds of hogs
Glover, cowpeas, soy beans, pea
nuts, rape, rye, oats, wheat. vetch and
Canada field peas are all valuable
forage crops for swine of any age.
The proper grain ration to feed with
them consists of such feeds as corn,
barley, etc, with the legumes, and
with the nonlegume plants the use of
a small percentage of tankage and oil
meal will be found advisable. The
amount to feed will depend on the
rate of gain desired. If rapid gains
are sought, full ration of grain
should be used, but il economy is
more desirable smaller proportions
of grain will be better, while If it is
only desired to carry the pig crop
over period of low prices they can
be kept on minimum grain ration.
1t is best, however, to keep them
growing, and to do this a small
amount of grain, two or three per cent

CONCRETE ROADS GAIN FAVOR
Highways Are Expensive to Build, but
Are Proving, Especially In Call
fornia, Everlasting.

Investigations by the department Of
agriculture have shown wonderful
increase in the popularity of roads
with heavy concrete base. Such roads
are expensive to build, but are proving,
especially in sections like California,
almost everlasting. The best invest
ment California has made has been
her good roads. There have been
some mistakes; there have been dis
appointments because of the inability
to cover all sections, but there have
been enough benefits secured from the
good roads to amply compensate for
all they have cost.

CLOVER BETTER FOR

Late Pasturing and Cutting Are
Especially Dangerous-Give
Crowns Protection.

A thin seeding of grain is the best
insurance of good stand of clover. A
half bushel or three pecks of grain as
nurse crop will protect the young
clover plants. and at the same time
give them room to grow.
Winter killing is often brought about
by not allowing the clover to make a
good growth in the fall. If the farmer
cuts his, clover late or pastures it
down SO that it goes into the winter
without good protection to the crowns,
he often finds much of it dead in the
spring. Late pasturing and late cut
ting are especially dangerous to tho

MOST OF FALLAClES

(By r. r. HABNER, Idaho Experiment

There is no doubt that the more

our means of prevention and the more
rational our treatment of the same.
The reverse is equally true. II our
knowledge is based on a fallacy, our
prevention and treatment is bound to
result in a failure.

mails and their diseases have been
handed down from one generation to
another, and the most of them
haven't the least ground for existence.

class

the zodiac during which castration of
animals is highly unsafe.

ton of drugs which is specific for a
certain disease, regardless of its form,
intensity or complications.
3. That we can cure systemic dis
eases by such magical treatment as
