RAISE MORE HOGS
PLEA TO RANCHERS
Especial Correspondence

Especial Correspondence
RENO. September 26.-The supply
of hogs during the past week has
continued light; quality good. The
market has been very active and has
reached higher levels. There is every
indication that prices will continue at
the present high point, with the pos
sibilityA of going even higher.
Hogs weighing $50 to 300 pounds,
if averaging over It's pounds --151ac
If averaging under It's pounds---15Ac
Hogs averaging 100 to 150.-----.1 1312c
Heavy rough hogs..--------------------------1 Ac
Feeder hogs
Weighed and delivered at Reno.
There is no avenue open to the
rancher to make more money than he
can by raising hogs. At the present
price of feed stuffs, hay, pasture and
grain, hogs shsould be produced at
not over ten cents per pound. This
price including freight to the market
These high prices, of course, indi-
cate that there is an unusual shortage
of hogs. consequently of provisions of
all kinds. If every farmer and rancher
in this State who is in a position to
do so would secure at least two sows,
and those who already have hogs
would add to their herds at least two
sows, they would make very hand
some profit on their investment.
Believe this question should be Sc
riously considered by everyone, as
there is no meat that can be supplied
the army under certain circumstances
to as good advantage as pork, and
everyone that can do so should place
themselves in position to increase this
supply.
The market on fat steers has be-
come stronger and there is some talk
of an eight-cent market on No. steers
and ia to 71a cents on No. 2 steers.
Fat COWS are still available in large
supply with the top at 619 cents.
The wool market continues the
same; prices unchanged.
Hides have shown considerable
decline and are now selling at around
IS to 10 cents, a drop of about 10 cents
per pound, or $5 to $6 per head of
cattle

HATTIE HIGHLANDS WRITES OF BRIDES
 AND MATTERS OF GENERAL INTEREST

went to the Boys club dinner on New Year evening, and wish that you could have seen that splendid bunch of boys at their banquet which, as you know, is given each year for them by the three Birmingham daily papers. There were several splendid talks made, and the one that impressed me most was pr. Stuart's when he told the boys what the word "newsboy" stood for. Name, every time, work, save, boss. owner, yours. He said first you have to have name then be there every time and save and if you did these things you would be the boss, then the owner and then the pa per's yours. Now, wasn't that clever, and will bet the boys won't forget that, either I questioned a little fellow later on to see if he remembered it, and he was very proud to tell me what the let ters in 'newsboys' stood for.

 The Rotogravure pictures of The Age- Herald continue to be of interest to every one, and when I saw those proofs last evening I felt real proud to think that an Alabama paper could carry such a popular feature. On the front page was three brides and one who has been mar ried such short time. and is so pretty and young looking you might say four brides. Mrs. Balpha Lonnie Noo1in of the University of Alabama, who was the lovely Miss Willie Lucille McNaron of Albertville; Mrs. John B. Reid, Jr., g pretty and attractive young woman, whc was Miss lone Harrison; Mrs. William Lille Brown, who was the lovely and popular Leona Plosser and Mrs. Jessie Lewis, who was the lovely Evelyn Rey- holds, whose wedding was one of the brilliant events of last year.

 There is another visitor here, who has been so popular and going around so much I wonder she can survive it. She is Pauline Haywood of Chicago. who Is the guest of Elizabeth Wyman. She has been given dances, luncheons, din- ners and teas and I don't know what all ever since the first minute she arrived.
 One of our own girls, Josephine Evins, shared some of the honors of Miss Hay woods parties, too.

 suppose that you saw Annie Henley's engagement announced to MT Mover. Well, I hear that they are going west to live and I certainly am sorry, although am very fond of Anne, I seldom see her except for a few minutes at time on the street passing, but I do know that Birmingham and Alabama is losing one of their very finest and loveliest young women and that scores of friends will bid her reluctant good-by
 MT. and Mrs. Avant have issued invi- tations to the marriage of their daughter, Agnes, to Edwin Dillon on the afternoon of January r at Temple Emanu-El. l saw friend read the invitation very closely and then said: Well Hattie. what on earth is she doing marrying at Temple Emanu-El?" I said: You old stupid thing, don't you know that Dr. Edmonds breaches there, and that the Avants are among his very strongest ad- mirers Speaking of the Avants, I wish you could see the girls now. as there are not two prettier or more attractive young girls in all Birmingham than Agnes and Freda. I know that Agnes will make a | lovely bride, too.

1N DEAR BECKY: We have been hav- II ing some real spring weather down
 here and you who are in the land of ice and snow, I know wish for dear old Birmingham and Alabama.
 * .; *
 We have about quieted down after the holidays and the rush of Christmas and have sent most all the boys and girls back to their respective schools after giving them most glorious time. We are be- ginning to think of spring clothes and the shops here are already showing many at- tractive things for the new season. We all have been attending the white sales being held at most all of the well known shops and I heard that a number of the young spring brides were buying quite a number of things and were spending most lavishly
 Speaking of brides, I don't believe that I ever saw so many such real young brides in one season as we have had. Some of these girls look just like high
 
 school girls and seem too young to have left the mother nest" The engagements of several others have been announced who are just as young, too. One young girl laughingly said: And you have to stay married so long, too"
 | saw man, quite young looking, too, d few days ago, all in smiles, and thought I knew why the smile, but I waited patiently for him to speak (can you believe it),. when he said Jennie (that is his wife) is a grandmother, in the cutest little way. I asked. him how about you; aren't you grandpa, and he said :Well, it doesn't pay to talk about yourself" But he certainly is tickled to death with the new honor, and he says, ''the boy is the finest in town" There are quite a number of beautiful affairs being planned for Mr and Mrs. Charles A. Stillman of Illinois, who are the guests of the Cabanisses, on Highland avenue The Stillmans formerly made their home here and have just scores of

FRIENDS AND FLOWERS

When idly through the winter woods
| stray,
| feel the breath of Death on every
hand;
Brown leaves whir1 signing as they
sadly fall,
And trees, once verdudous, now
leafless stand.
The grass is dead, and cen the plants
that heal
The ills OF man now wither and
decay;
Sad is all Nature, and the shiv'ring
winds
Bring added gloom to the funeral
day.
When flowers are many and the earth
is green,
We crush, or pass them by without
thought;
But when we find one on a winters
day,
What dreams of happiness the day
has brought!
Oh, could we keep the flowers! glad
some thing!
Whose beauty and whose fragrance
cheer the heart;
But winter, with his breath of iciness
And lack of sunshine, bids them
soon depart.
When friends are many and our lives
are glad,
We often drive this friend or thai
away
With cruel jest, or mayhap careles.
