ASSOCIATION SIGN
FAMILIAR TN FRANCE

Boulougne, Feb. 1O.-(Correspond-
ence of The Associated Press. THE
inverted triangle symbol of the Young
Mems Christian association is one of
the most familiar signs in northern
France.
The association is everywhere in
the war zone. Its workers speed
about in small cars and its wagons
carry stores from one town to anoth-
er. Its huts increase every month;
and in some places its work is now
being extended by small depots in
remote villages placed under the
charge Of non-commissioned British
officer, and opened for a few hours
each day.
The regular "huts" of the associa-
ton are great rOomy one-story build
ings that hold from four to five hun.
dred men, with kitchens and living
rooms for the workers. The princi-
pal business carried on therein is a
sort of simplified army canteen setting
at cost price those articles which are
in universal demand, such as trouser
buttons, cigarettes, cakes and tea.
At one hut a few miles from Bou-
logne the daily turnover from this
class of trade is $4,000 a day, mostly
in amounts of two to four cents.
There are also books and papers,
tables for writing letters, billiards,
and various kinds of instruction. Men
often gather in large numbers to hear
a lecture on the history and archi-
lecture of the town: French classes
and bible classes jostle with moving
picture shows and concerts.

Burgundy snails. of which Partisan

come from Burgundy, says DIR. Beril-

the war a large part OF those con-

Bavaria; some of them are now COM

Thoroughness with which the United

Il became known today that a secret

Don ku is in San Francisco prepar-

has applied TO the government for
merchant papers, Merchant papers
are issued only to Chinese who have

Motivation In Education

Under a motivated situation they are

About Fall Pigs.


More fall pigs can be raised in Iowa
with 'profit-but it is we'll to market
them in April, says the animal hus-
bandry department at Iowa State col.
lege.
September fall pigs rightly handled
may be made to weigh better than 225
lbs. a handy, demanded weight by
April of the following year. 1t is be-
ing done.
A simple ration Of corn, meat-meal
tankage and ~skimmiil4 or buttermilk
is excellent. Allow rock salt at free
will. Feed all feeds according to the
free, choice system, that Isl put each
in a compartment and let the pigs eat
at will. Oats for fall. pigs, do not pay
if one has plenty Of meat-rlleaf tan
age and milk or plenty Of either.
With zoe corn the Iowa station has
made gains on fall pigs for $5.14 per
hundred lbs. This compares favorably
to spring pig costs.
A return of $1.10 bu. of corn after
crediting other feeds, when hogs sell
at So makes fine showing for the
fall pig and for the free choice system
of swine feeding. -.
Why not feed small fall pigs as out.
