Cubs Down Giants

New York, May 25.-After absorb ing a lot of punishment during the past week Fred Mitchells trained bearcats from, Chicago turned about face in their tracks on the Polo Grounds yesterday and clawed the Giants up a. bit.

BACK TO THE LAND


Most of the people in the cities are
working for some one else and spend
their incomes as fast as they get them
In case of sickness or discharge they
have no resources. When gray hairs
begin to grow thick, the condition of
the city worker is pitiful, and it will
be all the more aggravated during war
times when the cost of living is out of
sight. One of the surest and safest
ways for those who do not have the
habit of saving, to acquire it and Sc
cure enough property to make them
selves safe in case they lose their po-
sitions and have difficulty in finding
others, is to buy land A small saw
ing will make the first payment on
small tract of land. A little saved
each pay day will soon amount to en-
ough to cancel the entire debt. The
small place can then be improved out
of the regular savings and self-sus-
tanning home finally can be developed
or it may be sold and the money ap-
piled on the purchase of larger tract
Once the land habit has been acquired
by person thoroughly in earnest it
steadily grows. Soon the pleasure
from owning and improving the land
overtops the satisfaction that comes
from spending the money for city
amusements.

not, we cannot guess, and it is this un-
certainty that turns the drawing into
tragic lottery.
And yet with this uncertainty-with
the possibility of death at the end of
the passage or on the way, there is no
faltering among the young men whose
fate or luck has cast them for the or
deal. There are none overly anxious
for this struggle against the modern
implements of war; but there are few
would if they could shirk the duty
which is laid upon them.
Nor will there be any challenge that
the drawing has been other than fair.
Under the system followed it would
have been human impossibility to
have juggled the affair so that some
might be favored and so escape. 1t
bore on all alike. Side by side with
the man on the farm, and from the
shop, will be found the man of means.
of social position, of prominence.
Each class has been touched by the
lottery, and each will hold his place
in the ranks of this great army if
physical requirements of the examin-
ing board are met.
The end of the drawing brought re-
Taxation to all, for all were interested
in the outcome. Few families but had
son or some relative among the reg
istrants, in whose interest they were
wrapped up, and so to all it was day
of tension.
The next step will be the summon
ing Of those selected for examination,
then the order for mobilization, and
the farewell that may be for time
alone or it may be forever.

A LOTTERY OF LIFE

The drawing for membership in the
first contingent of the selective army
may well be referred to as lottery
of life, for it dealt with the problem
of life or death for many. 1t is the
intention of the government to send
hundreds of thousands of the young
men whose names were drawn to the
trenches in Europe to battle in the in
terest Of humanity and the right to
live free from monarchial dictation,

will give their lives as a sacrifice that

are who will return, but many will be

while spared, will prove of little for

KEEP the SPRING PIGS
GROWING THROUGH SUMNER

Keep the spring pigs growing all
through the summer. 1t is the pigs
business during this time to develop 4
good frame, to grow bone, muscle, and
vital organs, and to lay on fat. Pien-
ty Of pasture, some grain, exercise,
and good sanitary quarters are all ne
cessary if the spring pigs are to be
thrifty and profitable, say specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture.
Give the spring pigs plenty of good
pasturage. They should be kept on
pasture as long as possible and gain
the benefit of its cheap nutrients. es-
pecially mineral and protein, and its
tonic and digestive qualities. But
pigs on pasture alone, even alfalfa,
need some grain supplement. But
amount of grain or other concentrated
feed used would depend on how much
pasturage is available, on the cost
factor of grain or other feeds, on the
age and condition of the pigs, and the
time at which the farmer expects to
market them. To be ready for the
early fall markets, spring pigs must
be fed heavier grain ration than
pigs intended for the winter market
Less protein supplement is needed
when pigs are run on leguminous
pastures. Under most farm condi-
tions the pigs will gain well on a l to
2 per cent grain ration. The self
feeding method makes for cheap and
rapid gain. If the grain ration is
limited, the hand feeding method is
better. By feeding once a day in the
early evening, pigs take greater ad-
vantage of the pasture and Craze
hungrily during the cool of the morn
ing or the evening. Plenty of fresh,
clean drinking water always should
be available.
Pigs on pasture usually get enough
exercise. They should have a clean,
dry, well ventilated shelter to guard
against exposure to storms, and to
supply shade. A concrete wallow will
add to the pigs comfort, and layer
of oil on the water will keep down lice,
as will an oiled sack on rubbing post,
or sprinkling the pigs with crude oil
every two weeks.
To supply mineral matter and
tonic, the following mineral mixture
is good. 1t always should be access
ible. Dissolve the copperas in hot
water and sprinkle over the mixture
Copperas, 2 pounds; sulphur, 4 lbs;
Stacked lime, lbs; salt, lbs; wood
