n Pleasure is not an end but an Incl
dent of life. 1t is meant to hearten
us and invigorate us we travel the
path of duty. We misconceive of life's
essentials when we put pleasure first.
When pleasure becomes the object of
a life the life itself is dwarfed into
such smallness that it cannot enjoy
true pleasure.

A wise old preacher, in picturing
the failure of the Prodigal Son to find
happiness, coined the epigram, "A
good time cannot come out of a bad
man" If the Gospels philosophy be
the true one. then the highest happi-
ness is normal and possible only to
the Christian, who alone is in harmony
with the laws and with the Lord Of
life. Good times are the prerogative
of the good. They have in them
selves the conditions from which hap
piness springs. The Joy of the Lord"
is a heritage of the redeemed and the
righteous.
happy Christian is a more effec-
tive argument for the gospel than a
whole volume of Christian evidences
Even our recreations should reflect
credit upon Christ. If our pleasure is
unselfish. spontaneous and genuine it
will surely glorify God. Indeed, if
our faith is not manifested in our re-
creations it is not very deep in our
life.
Pleasure and religion are not two

Stopping The Leaks
10 The Hog Business

With the present high price OF
grain 1t is necessary to make the hog
business pay that everything posi-.
bic be done to stop the wastes. This
is one of the seasons OF the year
when much can be done to stop many
o. the losses.
The season Is at hand when the
young pigs will be coming along and
everything should be done to save as
many of them as possible. This can
be helped greatly by proper care Of
the brood SOW Just before and dur
ing narrowing time. About two weeks
before the SOW is due to farrow she
should be put in a pen that Is light
and airy and her feed gradually
changed to what she is to be fed at
narrowing time. One should be very
careful In changing the feed at this
time as II is often easy to throw
a sow of feed and cause serious trou-
BILE. Constipation is the bane OF
hog raisers and should be carefully
guarded against at this one time In
particular; for should SOW become
constipated. at this time there Is
very apt to be loss of pigs.
After narrowing the SOW should not
be fed for about "a hours unless she
shows signs Of uneasiness. Ordinari.
ly she will not care for a great deal.
Plenty of fresh water should be Civ
ell her at all times but real cold icy
water should never be given a SOW
that has just farrowed. The chill
should be removed. A thin slop OF
shorts and milk is one of the very
best feeds just after narrowing.
Another method OF stopping the
pen which the sunshine reaches a
leaks is to have good light airy
good part of the day. 1t should be
provided with a good rail so that
the SOW will not be able to get the
pigs between herself and the wall
and mash them. This rail can be
made from most any kind G: a board
or pole so long as IL acts as pro.
lection for the pigs. 1t should be
six to eight inches from the wall and
like distance from the floor. Up
to narrowing time it costs no more
to keep SOW that farrowp a large
litter than II does one that only far
rows half as many.
After the SOW has done her part
of producing q large healthy litter
the one in charge should do every
thing possible TO help her save them
If the SOW is heavy and awkward Il
is often advisable to keep the pig
away from the SOW and return then
every two hours to suckle for few
days until they are strong enough t
keep ont of the dams way.
Another method of stopping some
of the Leaks is to have some earl,
pasture to turn on to so as to Gu
down the amount Of high pricet
gram lnut mas W Dc leu Wv
winter months.
Organizing community shipping as
sociations and shipping their owl
hogs to market is another method o
stopping the leaks. In most localitie
the expense of shipping and sellini
Is less than the buyers profits. 9th
erwise there would not be so man,
buyers in the business as there are
This is a profit that the farmers ar
entitled to and is within easy reacI
OF them II they so desire.
BY watching the business careful
ly and stopping the small leaks, wha
would otherwise be a loss can b
very often turned to profit.-O

Oil Production From

inc output of petroleum in the IL
ma Indiana field, which includeo the
areas of oil production in northwest.

esl barrels in 1915, according to sta
ustcs compiled under John ID. Nor
throp, OF the United States Geologic.
III survey, decrease of 792.952 bar-
reis, or l6 per cent, from the OUTPUT
OF this field in 1914. The decrease
was due In part to the fact thot the
output In 1914 was exceptionally high
but chiefly to the fact that market
conditions were not such as tn in
spire the quest and DEVELOPMENT or
new wells to Offset the normal de-
cline Of the old wells.
The average price at the wells was
96.4 cents barrel and the total
market value was $4,l14,22s. a de-
crease OF 21.S cents, or Is per cent
In average unit price and OF $780,
1913 or 81 per cent in total market
value from 1914.
Tho field activity in this area was
slight throughout the year but show
ed n decided increase with the adj
vancing market for oil in the last
quarter. A total OF 435 wells we're
completed, 322 of which yielded oil,
the remaining 113 being barren.
In the Lima or northwestern Ohio
division field activity was conferred

that ranged in yield between 20 and
go barrels the first day OF production
The striking feature of the develop
ment in this division was In the TIFF
fin district, Seneca County, on the
County lnfirmary farm, Eden Town
ship, whore the Sun Co., completed
several wells that averaged. more
than 100 barrels in initial production
and one well finished early in Sep
TENDER, that was credited with $50
barrels on it's first productive day.
In the Indiana division moderate
field activity was confined almost eX-
clusively to the productive districts
in the Wabash Valley in the south
western part Of the State. Only Ave
new productive wells were reported
from the vast area of Trenton rock
production in the northeastern sec-
ton where the lacK OF activity Is due
to the almost total exhaustion of the
natural gas that was once 20 abund-
ant In this division and to the de-
pressed condition of the oil market,
which prevented the substitution OF
other more expensive fuels for drill
Ing and pumping the wells OF low
yield in this area.
In the southwestern districts mod
crate activity was apparent in the
Sullivan district. Sullivan County, the
Riley district, Vigo County and the
Oakland, City district, Pike County.
In the northern part of Pike County

oil pool OF apparently small areal ex,
tent on the Sutton and Finney farms

three miles west of Petersburg but

water.
Developments were nominal in the

LOUISIANA TO GET
BIG FISH HATCHERY

The proposed bill for the establish
ment of a $4,000 fish hatchery in
Louisiana and several other states has
been reported favorably to the house
by the merchant marine and fisher
les committee, according to a dispatch
from Washington. The bill specifies
that the site in the different states
shall be selected by the secretary Of
commerce.
Commissioner Alexander and E.
A. Tunlin, of the Louisiana conser-
walton commission, have been work.
inc for the bill. Mr.. Alexander went
to Washington and enlisted the aid
of the Louisiana lawmakers. Mr..
Tulian, who was in the fisheries de-
partment of the department of COM
merce, said Saturday that there are
several places in Louisiana where the
hatchery can bel coated.
A mighty good fish station to cost
$4,000 on the South Atlantic coast
in either Georgia, North Carolina or
South Carolina will be provided.

GOOD ROADS

The strength of the good roads
movement in Louisiana cannot be bet
ter shown than in the fact that on
one day this week, Monday, two par
ishes, Ouachita and Jefferson Davis,
voted A'' a million dollars each for
the cU...l. u..ion of better permanent
highways. Other parishes have given
money for their roads in sums as large
as one million dollars, but never with
as much unanimity and as much en-
thusiasm as the parishes mentioned,
one in north and the other in South
Louisiana.
In jefferson Davis the vote was
large, much larger than at similar
election of a year ago. An encourage
ing feature of the election was the en-
thusiasm displayed by the towns in
voting the money, they taking the po-
sition that although none of it will be
expended within their limits, they will
be the chief beneficiaries of a system
that will give better connection with
the neighboring towns. Jennings vot-
ed seven to one for the road bond is
sue, and Welsh ten to one. The first
work to be done will be to continue
a great highway to connect with the
splendid road just completed in Cal
casieu.
In Ouachita, the vote for the good
roads bond issue was still more unan-
imous, and the interest Of the town
of Monroe was even more marked
than that of Jennings. Although the
entire amount voted will be expended
in the country districts and Monroe
will have to pay three-fourths of the
taxes, only four votes were cast
against the proposition in that town.
In three wards not single vote in
opposition was cast; and the total
property vote was thirty to one in ia
vor of spending half a million dollars
on the highways.
1t is quite evident that Louisiana
is aroused, town and country, as to
the value and necessity Of good roads;
and with the present activity the state
ought, in the next few years, to en-
JOY that system it has so long lacked.
