Feed For Young Pigs.

Before weaving young pigs it
is well to accustom them to a
grain mixture or a slop of sweet
milk combined with grain. The
Pennsylvania State College Agri-
cultural Experiment Station has
obtained excellent results with a
grain mixture of corn meal four
parts, and tankage one part. The
addition of skimmilk increases
the rate of grain. If skimmilk
is fed with this grain mixture
the amount of corn meal may be
increased to six parts. Other
mixtures recommended are corn
meal eight parts and tankage one
part, or skimmilk three parts and
corn meal one part.
If possible pasture crops should
be used for growing pigs, For
quick growth of pigs, two to four
pounds of grain per hundred
pounds live weight daily in addi-
ton to pasture crops is required.
The amount of grain fed should
be governed largely by the ap
petite of the pigs. They should
be fed all they will consume with
out waste twice daily.

TO politics. No party can go before
the nation on platform of sacri-
fcing to peace and win. The military
spirit, the fighting spirit, always wins
in popular elections. w. ]. Bryan
may be right in his contentious for
peace. History will very likely prove
that he is, but Bryan nor any other
man can be elected on that platform.
Every loyal citizen believes in pro
gress with reference to the army and
navy, and especially with reference
to the latter. The government is
spending about two hundred and fifty
millions a year on the navy now, and
it does seem that this sum is quite
enough to keep the American navy
where it can cope with any other
navy. While the country believes in
progress and in protection Il does
not seem reasonable now that thCre
is a demand for hysterical prepara-
ton for war. We have no enemies
and there are no countries of the
world able TO became a formidable
enemy and will not become so for
many years.
For the life of us, we cannot see
any good reason for fear or haste
or hysterical preparation for war.

McLEMoRE FOR INTERVENTION

Congressman McLemore of Texas
has asked that the Mexican border
situation be turned over to the border
states for settlement. The congress
man favors Intervention, or he would
not want the border affairs turned
over to the border states. If Texas
and Arizona had the right to con-
troll international affairs, there would
be fewer Americans killed and fewer
horses and cattle taken from this side
and there would also be many more
Mexicans killed, and the strife would
have but one result. and that result
would be open hostilities within sixty
days.

THE PER CAPITA PAYMENT

A few days ago in Washington Con
gresham Harrison of Mississippi ask
ed that the per capita payment amend
ment to the Indian appropriation bill
be held over until such time as he
had appeared before the committee to
oppose IT, Congressman Carter of
this district agreed to the postpone
ment and asked the privilege of reply.
That date has arrived and we have
not before us just what happened be-
fore the committee, but the results
have become known and those re-
suits show that Congressman Carter's
first fight with the Mississippian has
resulted in a complete victory for the
Oklahoman. The committee on In
dian affairs raised the amounts of
the per capita payment, placing the
sum to be given each Chickasaw at
5000 and each Choctaw $500 and re-
ported it out from the committee by
unanimous vote. The report shows
that the Mississippian did not have
as many as one man on the Indian
committee to take his side of the
question. The next fight will come
on the floor of the house, and while
congress has been in session since
the first of December, Mr. Carter
has been working industriously
among the new members making them
acquainted with the situation as it
exists. As the fight before the COM
mitted resulted in so big victory
for Mr. Carter, it is reasonable to
presume that the fight before the
house will result in victory for the
Indian of these two nations.
The people of the state are hopeful
that congress will take a sane view
Of the situation and make payments
to the Indians. When reduced to
its last analysis, there is nothing more
to the question than the simple prin-
ciple of debt paying. The govern
ment has in its possession the money
which belongs to the Indians. It has
agreed to pay these sums out an
nually in per capita payments to
of the tribes. and there is
no more reason that the government
should fail to keep its obligation than
if the money were due from an in
dividual.

THE PRESIDENTS CHANGE

There is a marked difference in the
tenor of the presidents remarks now
and those made year ago on the
subject of preparedness. 1t is inter-
esting to analyze the situation to ar
rive at a satisfactory solution of the
cause of the change of the president S
opinion. 1t may be that he has learn
ed some facts with reference to inter-
national affairs which he does not
feel like revealing to the public, If
conditions confront the country that
endanger our liberties. then the presi-
dent is justified in making change.
Still another cause might be the mere
contagion of fear. The president has
been obscesSed for months by
thoughts of war. He has been han
ding questions with belligerent ma
tions. and naturally the trend of
thought is toward war and its pre-
paredness, and the fear which has
seized Europe has amounted to a
contagion which has swept over every
country at peace.
A third cause might be attributed

IPROCRESS|VES ARE
IN GREAT DEMAND
Republicans Bidding High to
Get Wanderers Back Into
the Fold

New York, July members of the
late lamented progressive party are
finding themselves very much sought
after personages just now. 1t appeared
fairly well established today that one
reason why neither the democratic MOI
republican campaign managers had yet
announced the full membership Of the
campaign committee was because they
both hoped to corral number of pro
gressives for this WORK.
1t is known there will be six progress
sives on the committee Of 10 which will
direct Hughes campaign. Vance Me
Cormick, democratic national chairman
reiterated his declaration that Wilson 's
reelection was assured because the pro-
gressives were "men of principle, u
most of whom could not bring thmselves
to go back into the fold under men
they have dubbed bosses.
One of the stunts which republican
leaders are anxious to put into force is
ocular demonstration of the entente cor
dale which has been restored between
the republicans and those who bolted
four years ago. With this idea in view
it is understood big meeting to wind
up the campaign, with Roosevelt, Taft
and Hughes on the same platform is al
ready being discussed.
