Ten-Year-0ld Kentucky Pig Club
Champion.

Earnest Cornelius, a little ten
year-old boy, living at Bond,
Jackson County, Kentucky, in
the heart of the mountains, and
being a member of the 1916 Ken
lucky Pig Club, is perhaps the
happiest lad in the State Of Ken
lucky, at any rate among the l,
200 or more pig club boys in the
State.
Earnest made known his de-
sire to become a pig club member
early in the year to County Agent
W. R. Reynolds, his persistence
being so strong that his father
Jecided to let him try his hand,
and got him the best bred Duroc
pig to be had. requesting the
county agent to make the selec-
ton.
Prince Henry End was selected
and weighed on May 20, together
with all the other club pigs in
the county, balancing the scales
at 46 lbs. Earnest was at the
little railroad town of Bond to re,
ceive him, and on that day started
a contest that has in all prob
ability resulted in the lowering OF
the state record as to cost pei
pound production and daily gains
in pounds. Little Earnest was
present everywhere that day pro
pounding questions to the county
agent as to feeding methods
sanitation, etc., and how well h,
followed instructions are to b,
seen in his record. Earnest die

gether to feed and care for hi
pig, but did that himself, Will

town, all had to see him, and the
free show was the occasion of
much talk and gossip, which
spread to all quarters of the
county. County Agent Reynolds
remarked that a great portion of
his time was consumed in answer
ing questions regarding Earnest
Cornelius pig.
Prince Henry, starting on May
Goth at 46 lbs, added to his
avoirdupois so rapidly that at
each weighing for the first three
months, an average gain of l $40
lbs. per day was made, and at
the close Of the contest, October
Goth, he had grown from a 46-lb.
pig to a 470-lb. hog, making q
daily gain of 2 $40 lbs, or a
total of aga lbs. for the Isl days,
at a cost of 1893 cents per lb.
His daily menu consisted of
ground corn, middlings, tankage,
buttermilk and grass pasture.
He was kept clean and healthy,
having before him at all times,
charcoal, wood ashes, salt and
copperas; crude oil being used
for a disinfectant.
1t was a Chistmas gift indeed
to this little mountain boy when
he was informed by County Agent
Reynolds, on Christmas Eve that
he had defeated more than 1000
boys, and was the winner of the
State Challenge cup. No sooner
had he been informed of this than
he began to ask questions about
the ownership of the cup. When
informed that he would have to
win again next year in order II
hold it, he remarked: THE mil
will whistle at midnight for me
next year, and | will do my best
, TO win."
This incident has created a stil

Chilean coast ports. africa is also
railroad port for the inland high coun'
try, but is not otherwise notable, save
as a strategic military post for Chile.
Iquique, the next port, is the Sec
ond and until quite lately was the
first nitrate port of Chile-a big
sprawling town, about the size of Cal
lao, but cleaner and more businesslike.
It lies in an open stretch of sandy des-
ert, closely walled in by steep noun
tans, some 1000 to $500 feet in height
which are surmounted with difficulty
by the nitrate railroads through aid OF
switchbacks.
No vegetation exists here save by
constant care and irrigation, so it Is
not a lovely spot. The harbor is full
of shipping activity; some loading nj
trate, and there are a number of in
termed Germans. BY the way, the KOS
mos" line has interned vessels in near
ly every west coast harbor from San
Francisco to Valparaiso, riding hlgh
in the water, and with seaweed nearly
two feet long trailing from their hulls.
Iuuique streets are dirty, unpaved
and not very attractive, though the
stores are not bad.
