INTELLIGENT CARE
TO SPRING LITTER
Comfortable House With Dry
Bedding, Milk in Ration With
Forage Are Essential.

"With the price of hogs soaring
around ten cents per pound the farmer
who gives intelligent care to his spring
filters of pigs can lay up a neat sum
for the automobile he expects to buy"
says w. H. Palmer of the agricultural
extension department, Ohio State uni
versity, Columbus. He interprets In
telligent care as a comfortable house
with dry bedding, milk or milk and
shorts ration by the third week of
pigs life, and clean place to eat,
with plenty of forage as they get older.
If little pen or creep is built near the
sleeping place they can be fed when
they are young and small, which pre-
vents the young porkers from losing
their pig fat" By keeping success
sion of forage crops for the pigs
through the summer the ration of grain
can be lessened and the profits in
creased.

CLOVER MAKES FINE
PASTURE FOR SWINE
System Outlined Which Has
Worked Well With Many Hog
Growers in Minnesota.

Plenty of tender. nourishing hog pas
ture of good quality may be had dur
ing the entire season if clover is
grown, say men at the Minnesota col
lege of agriculture. AS soon as the
pigs are strong enough, the brood
sows with their filters may be turned
into a clover field. If one-third to half
of the clover is mown about June 10,
the hogs will eat the young shoots
that spring up and will not bother the
uncut part of the field.
The rest of the field may be cut at
the regular haying time. By having
the pasture well stocked with pigs
and calves one need not worry about
taking care of the pasture for the rest
of the summer. By fall the pigs ought
to weigh from SO to 80 pounds each.
This system has worked well with
many hog raisers in Minnesota. In a
good season, one acre of pasture will
provide feed for three brood sows and
their pigs. Plenty of cot room and
trough room with proper feeding facil-
tiles ought to be provided in each pas
ture. The cots should be from 20 to
40 rods from the feeding place, so
that the pigs will get out into the pas
ture and take plenty of exercise.

{ of peas and oats, oats or clover, for
hay, in the latter part of June or early
in July, the land is plowed at once. 1t
is then disked once every week or ten
days up to the last week In July, when
the alfalfa seed is sown without a
nurse crop. Again, early potatoes may
be dug late in July and the land thor
oughly disked in preparation for seed
ing to alfalfa. BY either of these
methods crop is secured and good
stand of alfalfa obtained unless the
season be an abnormally dry one.
An early grain crop such as barley,
rye, or early oats may also be removed
and the land handled as outlined
above. If alfalfa is sown following
grain, it is important to plow very shall
low, or to disk the land twice thor
oughly, as soon as the grain crop is
removed, so as to start the grain that
has been left in the ground to grow
ing.
Time should be taken to terminate
and destroy the volunteer grain before
sowing the alfalfa, so that the grain
may not crowd the young alfalfa plants.
This method, however. has not given
such success as seeding after summer
fallow or after an early hay crop has
been removed.

(By A. C. Army. Minnesota Experiment
Station.)
With moisture and seed-bed condi
lions favorable, alfalfa may be sown
to advantage in July without nurse
crop. Summer seeding may be done
on summer-fallowed ground.
For summer seeding the usual pro-
cedure is to disk the ground early in
spring and then to use the disk and
harrow often enough to keep the land
mellow and free from weeds until July.
If the weeds cannot be kept down with
the harrow and disk, the land may be
plowed and the disking and narrowing
continued. Sowing the alfalfa seed
without an accompanying grain crop in
July, has given better results than SOW
ing in the same way in June or earlier.
This method has the disadvantage
of requiring considerable work with no
crop returns from the land for one sea-
son. However, good stand of alfalfa
is usually assured unless heavy rains,
followed by hot sun and wind, come
Immediately after the seed is sown,
and opportunity to clear the land from
weeds is afforded.
A modified summer-fallow method
may be used to advantage in many in
stances, also. In this, after the cutting

EASIER FOR UMPIREs
Fans Do Not Ride Them as in
Dark Ages of Baseball.
Attacking Arbiter Verbally and Some
times Physically on Every Close
Decision Was Deemed Prero-
gative of Players.

The senseless pastime of umpire
batting is becoming relic of the dark
ages of baseball.
In former years attacking the UNI
pire verbally, and sometimes physi-
cally, on every close decision was con-
sidered the prerogative of managers
and players, while many scribes ali
bied for their defeats by blaming the
poor judge of play.
| That time passed long ago and in
| telligent players today realize that
| nothing is gained and much may be
| lost by getting into rows with the UNI
pire, who is in full charge of the game
on the field and is as essential to the
pastime as the players themselves.
Any fair man who knows the big
league umpires will have to acknowl-
edge that they are fair-minded and
conscientious set of men, anxious to
do their duty to the best of their abil-
ity, playing no favorites and giving
each decision as it comes up exactly
as they see it.
Umpires, as rule, are much fairer

ner.
Umpires, on the other hand, are, as
rule, very fair and willing to admit
making a mistake. Their position is
a difficult one. The umpire behind
the plate, calling balls and strikes, as
well as making all decisions at the
plate and sometimes at third base, is
called upon to render as many as $50
decisions in the course of a single
game. The big majority of these he
gives accurately. In proportion to
the number of chances he has, his
mistakes are much fewer than those !

The baseball enthusiasts of Cincin
natl see visions of pennant floating
before their gaze this season. The
team that represents that city on the
diamond this year is acknowledged to
be about the fastest that Porkopolis
has ever seen. Competent judges OF
baseball ability who have seen the
Reds in action during the training trip
and in the championship games thus
far declare that the speed and power
displayed are no mere flash in the pan.
Cincinnati fans have waited 33 years
for the Reds to win National league
flag. They may be forced to wait still
longer, but this looks like the year for
the team to desert it's old haunts and
join the first division clubs.
Garry Hermann, the president of
the Reds, certainly made a tenstrike
when he cast aside his prejudices
against Federal league players and
signed Hal Chase to play first base.
The former star of the Yankees and
White Sox may be the most tempera-
mental individual in baseball, but he
is great player just the same.
He has tried in the past many a
play which failed to go through sim
ply because his teammates failed to
grasp the situation as quickly as he.
Working with such men as Charley
Herzog and Heinie Groh, two of the
smartest ball players in the game to-
day, Chase should show at his best.
Hal always has been and is today a

| dangerous hitter. He is especially ex
pert at hitting behind the runner
With a man on first base, Chase may
be depended upon to knock the ball to
right field. John J. McGraw, manager
of the Giants, declares the ability tc
perform just that feat the greatest
recommendation for any batter.
One of the strongest reasons for the
optimism of the Cincinnati fans is the
pitching staff of the Reds. There is
Fred Toney, who ranked second to
Grover Cleveland Alexander last sea-
son, allowing an average of 1.57 earned
runs to the game, Jean Dale is an
other clever, resourceful pitcher, who
ranked high last year
Pete Schneider and F. G. McKenery
are two young pitchers who are highly
praised by ball players. Earl Moseley
and Lefty Schulz, who saw service in
the American league before they
hoped to the Feds, should be of as
sistance too.
Second base may be the weak spot
in the Reds this year. At present Bill
Louden is filling the post. and filling
it in acceptable fashion, but Bill is a
veteran of long standing, and may
weaken under hard campaigning.
Charley Herzog, at shortstop. needs
neither Introduction nor defense.
Heinie Groh was the actual leader
among the third basemen, and, better
than mere mechanical ability, he is an
intelligent player.

QUICKEST GAINS BY
THE YOUNG PORKERS
Sow Should Be Given All Good
MiIk-Producing Food She
Will Consume Readily.

"By feeding the young porker
through the mother and later direct
ly from the trough, he can be mar
keted month earlier and return a
greater profit" says Joel S. Coffew Of
the animal husbandry department,
Ohio State university. To this end
the SOW should be given all the good
milk-producing feed she will eat.
When the pigs are a month old or
younger, they should be fed skim milk
In a shallow pan. Then a slop made
,f milk, shorts, bran and little tank
age should be given. The little pigs
should be fed In creep which shuts
out the sows or other pigs. Corn
can be added to the ration later.

For the chicks first meal the Iowa
State college poultry department rec
ommends the following mixture: one
fifth loaf of stale bread, one hard
boiled egg, one-fifth pound chicken
grit. Feed only what chicks will clean
up at time. For the second meal
feed mixture, one part by weight pin

USEFUL AS UTILITY PLAYER
Charley Mullen Fails to Make Good at
Second Base-Quite Handy Man
to Have Around.

Manager Donovan of the Yankees is
satiafied that Charley Mullen will not
do az a major league second baseman,
but considers him handy man to
have around, owing to ability as a first
basemen, a hitter, and the creditable
game which he can put up at second.
He can give a good account of him
self at the keystone sack, but it takes
a wizard to show major league form
at a strange position after playing
another place for several years.
