PORTUGAL MAKING
 WAR PREPARATIONS

Correspondence of the Associated Press
 Libson, June 3.-Thece has been great activity with regard to the Portuguese navy and :ts arsenals during the last three months, since the state of war was declared in this country. Besides the repaired ves- sells, five ships-two of which were German-have been fully equipped and armed. Strenuous efforts are being made to obtain crews for other ships-36 at Libson, and 67 in all, in cluding those in the colonies and islands. Sweepers and dozens of pa trols have been annexed to the naval division, and those as well as two de- stroyers and two torpedo boats are constantly doing coast service. The sweepers nave fished up all the mines spread by the Germans, which clsed so many disasters near the lar.
 The defense of the Port of Lisbon ic we'll organized and divided into N':;ous sectiods, composed of bat tcries, semaphc-es. pilots, etc., the whole forming zone called here "The Field of War" Strict orders forbid the entrance of any ships after dark and at any time without an "initialled" pilot.

when pork values are as low as they were in 1915. The vast majority of members had carefully selected high grade and pure-bred hogs, and to this improved blood, as we'll as the better feeding methods, can be attributed the large difference in favor of the aver age final value of pig-club hogs in the fall-$21.43, as compared with the estimated average value of all hogs on farms in the United States on January 1, 1916, $8.40. The pig-club mem- bers have shown their ability as a body to raise pigs successfully. They have raised good pigs, cheap pigs, and profitable pigs.
 Many are keeping their gilt pigs for breeding purposes. Some already have found it profitable to breed as we'll as to feed pigs. Fifty-six mem- bers reporting on their sows and lit- ters reported an average profit of $47.32. With the membership for this year doubled and most of the old members again on the rolls, the pig work should prove of even greater economic value in the future.

ALLEGED SLAYERS 0F UNCLE TAKEN
 ID MISSISSIPPI
Constable Green Will Col lect Reward of 32O0 for
 Arresting Williamsons.

Otis Williamson, aged 21, and Cooper Williamson, aged 19, white, and brothers, were taken to Simpson county, Miss, last night by Deputy Sheriff J. w. Pickering and former Sheriff B. c. McEnnis of that county to answer to charges of murder in the first degree. They are accused of having shot and killed a white man named Doe" Nichols, at his home, the night of Thursday, Juen 8, in Simpson county.
 The men were arrested here about 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon by Con- stable Clint Green, and soon there after they were turned over to the Mississippi officers, having admitted they were the men wanted, and having agreed to return to Mississippi with out requisition papers.
 The Mississippi officers have been here several days, believing that the men had come here, because they have an uncle here, named Finley. About noon yesterday they sought the as- sistance of Constable Green, and he soon ascertained the men were here, hauling bolts for the Bennett Head ing mill. He visited two camps with out locating the men, although he learned positively they were in this vicinity. A third camp, the Richards camp, above the Hebrew cemetery, was visited, and here it was learned the men were employed at that camp. One of the men was captured while he was unloading his wagon at the heading factory, and the other while he was coming into the city with a load of bolts.
 As a result of the capture of the men, Constable Green will collect the sum of $200 from the state of Mis- sissippi, a statutory reward of $1O0 for the arrest of each having been off, fered by the governor.

PIG.CLUB RESULTS.
Arcuses Interest in Live Stock and Provides Profitable and Instructive
 Work for Members.

The pig-club work has been carried on by the bureau of animal industry of this department during the past year in cooperation with the state agricultural colleges of Alabama, Ar kansas, California, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, and Texas. Pig clubs were organized among the farm children and proved means of arousing fur same time furnished profitable and The economic objects of the pig how to raise better swine cheaply; to give the members means of earn ing profits; and to afford the mem- bers practical insight into the busi- ness side of farming. Indirectly, the improvement of the swine of the country and the general introduction of better and cheaper swine raising methods are purposed.
 Each pig-club member is required to keep a record of his pig-feeding work and report this at the end of the state contest Many unusually suc- cessful records have been made. These are not typical of the work, but rather represent it's possibilities. A sum- mary and the averages of the work of many members give a better in- dication of the value of the pig-club work.
 In the 13 states named, II ,632 mem- bers were enrolled last year in the pig clubs. Not all were active mem- bers, but most of these raised pigs. While great many reported more or less completely on their work, 1,608 members from II states, with mem- bership of II 1,032, reported complete ly on weights, values, gains in weight, costs of gains, and profits. No fig ures are available from California and Oregon, except as to the number of members.
 The figures following are compiled from the complete reports. Seventeen hundred and eighty-three pigs were reported, or an average of Ill pigs per member. The majority of mem- bers took weanling pigs to feed in the spring and reported their results in the fall. The average weight per pig at the beginning of the feeding period, which averaged 166h days, the pigs weighed 194k pounds. This was an average daily gain in weight of 0.93 pound, at cost of SODA per pound. This low cost of gain can be attributed, it is believed, to the better feeding methods practiced and the wide use of forage crops by the mem- bers.
 The original value of the pigs averaged $5.24. The average final value was $21.43, a gain in value of $16.19. This gain in value cost $6.91, giving an average net profit per pig of $9.37 and an average net profit per member of $10.29.
 These figures are strong indica- ton that improved swine, raised in the right way, are profitable even

LARGER POSTAL DEPOSITS.

Larger postal savings deposits will
now be accepted at the postofice.
This is made possible by an import
ant amendment to the Postal Savings
Act just approved by the President.
A postal savings depositor may now
have an account amounting to $1,000
upon which interest will be paid.
Formerly $500 was the maximum
amount he could have to his credit.
This enlargement of postal savings
facilities will be very gratifying to
thousands of depositors who have al
ready reached the old $500 limit and
are anxious to entrust more of their
savings to Uncle Sam. Another fea-
ture of the amendment that will
avoid further embarrassment to the
public and to postal officials is the
doing away with the limit on the
amount that could be accepted from
q Gepositor monthly. Under the old
law only 500 could be deposited in
a calendar month. The amendment
abolishes this restriction. While the
Postal Savings System has already
proved a signal success as is shown
by the fact that more than half a
million depositors have over eighty
million dollars standing to their
credit, still it has fallen short of
meeting all demands of the public
because of the restrictions wiaicn
have been eliminated.
