Pigs on alfalfa pasture will return
more profit per pig II fed a grain ra-
ton equal to three per cent of their
weight, according to data of the North
Platte (Neb.) experimental substation.
The pig is a pork-producing machine,
aod like other machinery is most
profitable when run at full capacity.
A pigs stomach is so small that 1t
will not digest enough alfalfa alone
to make profitable growth. Pigs
cannot produce the best gain when
on pasture alone or when on pasture
supplemented by only a small amount
Of grain.
Tests made ut the North Platte
substation show clearly that two and
one-half to three pounds of corn daily
per 100 pounds Of live weight of the
pigs produce not only the greatest
gain but the greatest profit. The
higher the price Of corn, the smaller
the profit In favor Of the heavier ra-
ton. However, on market quot
ing corn at 20 cents and hogs at IN
cents, the 8 per. cent ration is still
the most profitable.

FREAK WAGeRS ON RECORD
Offer Proof That Men With Gambling
Instincts viii Bet on Anything
Under the Sun.

In the good old days" extraOrdin-
they are today. In 1910, for instance.
London Answers says, Lord Digby
staked ESQ that he would walk five
miles round Newmarket Heath In
certain time, barefooted and stark
naked, and had the misfortune Of los
ing by the narrow margin of half
minute, the king and all the court be-
ing witnesses Of the performance.
In the latter half of the eighteenth
century Liverpool scientist bet
brother scientist that he would read q
newspaper by the light of a farthing
dip at distance of 80 feet. The
wager was cheerfully accepted. The
first scientist merely coated the inside
of shallow wooden box with sloping
pieces of looking glass, so as to form
concave lens, placed it behind the
farthing dip and easily read the small
print at the distance named. The win
ming of the wager was witnessed by a.
Liverpool dockmaster, who ultimately
applied the idea to lighthouse re-
quirements and evolved the modern
reflected light.
About two years ago, during Il
yachting trip OF members of the Mer-
sey docks and harbor board, A. w.
Wilmer, leading Liverpool cotton
broker, was presented with a pair Of
wooden shoes for his birthday, and
another member of the board offered
to contribute a sum of money to two
charities If Mr.. Wilmer would go to
the cotton exchange wearing them.
For sweet charity's sake Mr.. Willmere
appeared .On change wearing the
wooden shoes and the stakes were
handed over to him.
Perhaps the limit was reached in a
certain town in Canada, where a man
propelled a green pea with a tooth
pick for about eighty yards along the
pavement within half an hour of the
stipulated time and won his wager.

HOUSE SCALES ARE
VALUABLE HELP
State Farmers Adviser Talks
About Importance of Hav-
ing Them on Hand

Every housekeeper should have a
set of scales and measures to weigh
and measure her purchases that she
may be sure she is getting what she
has paid for" says Mrs. Jean Kane
Foulke. farm adviser on home eco
nomics, in the bulletin of the State
Department of Agriculture. Even
when dealing with the same firm for
length of time it will be often found
to pay to do this at least once a month.
These household scales may be tested
by the local sealer on request just as
any commercial scales are, so that
they can be kept true and in working
order.
IF the housekeeper fms 11er pur-
chases vary much or often in amount
from what the dealer has told her,
she can protect herself and her neigh
bors by reporting the same to the coun-
ty sealer whose business it is to at
tend to such matters. There need
be no hard feelings" connected with
the transaction for the complainant's
name need not appear, the sealer hav-
ing authority to investigate and eX-
anime all weights and measures in his
Jurisdiction at any and all times with
out explanation.
Then, too. l would advise every
house keeper in Pennsylvania to write
to the State Bureau of Standards at
Harrisburg and provide herself with
the reports or bulletins for 1914-15
which will give list of the "toler-
ances" allowed by law on various ar
ticles, showing what various contain
ers must hold, such as boxed cereals,
etc, and also how package, jars and
baskets of fruits eggs, etc, must be
marked and numbered to show con-
tents and weight. These reports will
be useful tothe ordinary customer but
will be invaluable to women or girls
and to Canning Clubs who purpose to
market articles themselves and wish
to keep within the law. The laws are
very simple and plain but the penalties
are heavy for breaking them. There
fore, they should be we'll understood
by any one proposing to market or
sell.
I'm cases where it is inconvenient
to have the household weights and
measures tested by the sealer, they
can be tried out" with some other
| weights or measures in the neighbor-
hood that have recently had State in
spection. 1t is important that the
weights as well as scales be true and
| to be certain of this, some test must
be made. as many of the cheap appar-
atus such as are found in most houses
! are run out" by the manufacturer by
| the dozen and may be found to vary
| considerably in consequence. 1t would
hardly seem necessary for housekeep-
ers to go to this extra trouble did we
not find it a common item of news
that such and such dealer has been
found to have been giving short meas
ure to his customers. Sometimes
! through ignorance of the dealer him
| self as might come from using old and
worn scales of measures made incor-
rectly by the manufacturer, but alas
more frequently it is found that false
bottoms. light weights and trif1ing
with the balance of scales has been
the trouble. 1t has not been due to
accident or ignorance but to what
we politely call the tricks of the
| trade"

subject. Mr.. Lewis reply was

the county's right to lay this
class of pavement under its
own engineers without paying
any contractors profits Mr..
Lewis said:
with reference to the pos
sibility of a city or county do
Il ing its own work without in
fringing on patent rights, we
| do not believe we are compe-
tent to state definitely that il
can be done, although many

show that it is being attempt
ed, and | believe in most cases
without payment of any roy
atty"
The reply is sufficiently en-
couraging to warrant a thor
ough investigation of the plar
by the county court in the
event this county ever under.
takes any hard surface work
either with bond money OF
regular tax money. 1t is a
known fact that a large paving
company has to add material
| ly to its price to meet overhead
charges and to pay promotion
expenses. There are people
who believe that municipal Oh
county paving of the same class
may be had at a price from 2I
to so per cent under the con.
tractors price. The signifi-
canoe of such a saving is easily
apparent.

line to be known to lovers of
the pastime.
There may be a connection
between the fact stated above
and the success of German
strategy on the battlefields OF
Europe. Modern battles are
won not by the charging,
sword swinging commanders
pictured in the histories of old,
but by generals who sit at
camp tables far to the rear
and check over the problem in
a cold blooded manner. When
a general gets too close to ac-
tual fighting he may lose his
perspective and place undue
Importance on facts that are of
small significance when the
general engagement is cOnsid-
cred. He must forget human
ity and think only of the goal.
The fighting in France is in
the nature of a giant chess
game and just now Verdun is
the castle the German players
are after. The fact that over
so days of battling still sees
the city uncaptured gives evi-
dence the French also have
some knowledge of the game.

at their own risk, yet has refu-
ed to warn American citizens
to keep off certain Atlantic
liners.
For the same reason the
government does not give a
citizen who is in another mans
home or upon his ranch the
same rights that are granted
him when he is upon a public
road.
Each European nation con-
trolls its own territory and to a
large extent may govern for
eigners as it sees fit. The oce-
an is a highway, beyond the
three mile limit, and subject to
international law, not to the
law of any one country.
To argue we should consider
the the ocean in the same light
as the territory Of nation al
war is to contend there should
be no distinction between a
mans rights upon the public
domain and upon the private
property of another. A little
thought should make the mat
ter clear to anyone. 1t is well
known a farmer may turn a
bull loose in his own pasture il
he wants to do so and it is up
to the tresspasser to look out
for himself. But to turn the
bull loose on a public road is a
different matter entirely. The
same principle applies to war
fare and illustrates why ouI
government makes a DISTINCT
on in the protection afforded
citizens in warning countries
and when upon the high seas.
