MAKING SUCCESS WITH PIGS
To Secure Thrifty Young Animals
Sunshine, Exercise and Yard -
Run In Are Essential.

The best thing for the young pigs
is to get them out on the ground and
in the sunshine. 1t is almost i'm
possible to secure thrifty young pigs
unless they have sunshine, exercise
and Il yard to run in.
The businss of breeding pure-bred
swine Is u business by itself and 1t
should not he undertaken by anyone
who cannot keep records straight and
who Is not willing to invest good
money for improved blood.
The most conservative course is to
select the breed most popular in your
vicinity and improve upon the COM
mon individuals by the use of i'm
proved breeding b0ars.
A large proportion Of the growth
obtained while the pig is less than
five months Of age costs but little act
ual money and to make the business
profitable 1t is essential that we secure
the most gain possible during the first
few months Of the pigs life.

STRIVE FOR LARGER GARDEN
Vegetables Will Be in Better Demand
Next Season, Both for Family
Table and Market.

Every farmer should make his plans
for large garden next year. Unless
your garden has been large enough to
supply your home with an abundance
Of vegetables even In very dry seasons
1t would pay you to enlarge.
Next year will be the time to en-
large II you have planned to have a
larger and better garden. 1t now
seems that vegetables will be in de-
mand both for the family table and for
the local market.
1t Is far better to have fresh vege-
tables to spare for the market or for
canning, putting away, ETC., than to
fail to produce enough. Make your
plans large and then carry them out.
Better living should be our object
next year. A better garden will help
make 1t possible.

ANNOUNCEMENTS.
For Police Judge.

Judge j. M. Argo this week
authorizes The Herald to an.
nounce to the voters Of Hayti
that he is candidate for the Of.
flee of Police Judge for re.elec
tion.
The Judge told the Herald he
didn't have any special promises
to make, but that he was stand.
ing squarely upon the record he
has made while in Office. stating
Chat his record was open to any
citizen of the city and would be
glad to have it gone over, in do
ing so was sure of their support.
He also said that he has at all
times served those who were
brought before him for the petit
offenses, with nothing but fair
ness on the part of the city and
the defendant, and tried at all
times to deal out justice. He has
at numbers of times gotten out
of bed at night and came up
town to try parties under arrest
so that they might catch the
train north, and thinks this is
only one instance where he has
been fair to both city and the de
fendant.
The Judge desires re election,
and says he will appreciate your
vote and influence, pledging you
a like record as in the past, and
making an effort to improve.

MANURE IS GREATLY NEEDED
More Fertilizer Than 10 Saved
Enrich Thin Places.

Manure is greatly needed on most
farms. The average farmer could use
a great deal more barnyard manure
than Is saved on his farm.
The time has come for more to be
produced. More animals should be
kept to consume the crops and better
facilities should be provided to save
the manure that Is vOided.
Not only should the garden and the
orchard save manure, but the thin
places on the farm should be enriched.
BY doing this the yield of leading crops
may be increased and in a few years
the farm will pay better.

fly, deserts the dropping flower
so soon as it begins to wither for
one more sweet and fair. There
is an animal, however, that is
above this; there is an animal
that, though all else fees, and
fails, and frowns, when the day
of life grows cloudy, and cold,
and chill; an animal that remains
true to it's friends through the
shadows and shades as we'll as
the sunshine and tlowers-it is
the dog: but you had already
guessed right, for all owners of
a good dog know how true these
words are.
When we must part from a
friend like this it is always sad.
Sometimes we take the little pet.
or the monarch of his kind, the
guard dog, as the case may be,
out the back way. when death to
him has come, and bury him in
the back yard, where the grass
will grow tender and green and
we can plant a flower of tribute
that will grow into bloom.
Is that too much to do for a
friend like dog?
Whether it is or not, DR.. F. A.
Mayes and wife did not stop to
ask when their little pet, Katie.
cashed in her checks on February
90, 1917. Katie, a wee little speck
of down, little bigger than kit.
ten, had been all that may be
kindly said of the best of her
kind, and was loved by the entire
household, as she so richly de.
served to be. Whether there is a
brighter and better world in
some far-off star, beyond the
range of mans limited vision,
where all good dogs will go to
gambol in some garden of fade,
less green, is not for US to know.
OF this we need not ponder, need
not care. All that is in the be-
yond is in the hands of him who
does all things well. 1t is enough
to know that, in the back yard,
under little mound, no bigger
than would be made to plant a
rose bush, or a blooming vine,
Katie, the little house pet, will
sleep peacefully on and on
through the days and nights to
come until time shall be no more.

Anderson has followed its fortunes to

COST OF PRODUCING SUGAR.

Correspondence Associated Press)
San Juan, Porto Rico, Dec. 90
The cost of producing sugar in Porto
Rico is approximately the same as in
Hawaii and about l cent a pound more
than the cost Of production in Cuba,
according to the unofficial statemnts
made here by members of an investi-
eating commission from the depart
ment of commerce, Washington, who
have been obtaining information as
to sugar production costs.
The commission, composed of five
members, has completed it's work af-
ter obtaining cost figures direct from
the books of twenty three sugar COM
panies in all sections of the island.
Similar studies have been made in
Hawaii, Cuba and Louisiana to de-
termine the cost of domestic cane
sugar production as compared with
the cost of porduction in Cuba.

KILLS TIMBER WOLF
WITH A PINE KNOT

Little Rock, Jan. 6.-An interesting
story comes from Hot Springs county,
about fight with wolf. S. E. Hen
~, a farmer residing ten miles from
Malvern, had great deal of trouble
from depredations made on his stock,
and started out to hunt down the
cause. He encountered a big black
timber wolf, and fired upon the ami
NAL, but succeeded only in wounding
him nthe foot. His Airdale dog then
attacked the wolf, which was getting
the best of the dog when Mr.. Henry
seized pine knot, and awaiting ia
vorable opportunity braine dthe wolf.

from the very nature of an eelctric,
it's expensive mechanism and it's de
luxe finishing, the price of these cars
always has been at high figure, not
excessive in proportion to the value
offered, but quite beyond the means
of many motorists.
"Gradually, as the years have
brought new production methods and
consequential decreases in building
cocts, price has been lowered.
Undoubtedly still lower price
would add many more thousands to
the ranks Of eelctric car owners
Whether further decreases can be
made is matter of speculation. The
quality must not be sacrificed and
present day material costs would tend
toward an increase rather than low
ering of construction COSTS"
