Judicial Pun.

A. certain judge was trying case
where dealer sued a steamship com
pany for the loss of some pigs in fire
on board cross channel boat. 1t came
out In evidence that the steamer had a
large deck load, and here the damage
was greatest.
The judge thus began his charge to
the jury:
Gentlemen, to put these pigs on
deck was rash act, but to fry them
was rasher."

CORN VS.. PORK
BY HAMLIN GARLAND
of the ViuiIantes.

If the war goes on Gas it seems, likely
to do) we may come to Doctor Kel
logg's way of thinking and cut out
the raising of pigs altogether. He es
Inmates that it takes nearly ten pounds
of corn to make a pound of pork, and
that when we get the pork we are
worse off than If we had none. This
I suspect. is true, for /, under orders
of my doctor, have had no pork of any
kind for three years.
Kellogg is an extreme vegetarian, of
course, and his statements must be
read in the light of that fact. And
yet he has logic on his side. Why
continue to feed the most vital food
of the human race to droves of ami
mails whose flesh is admitted to be un-
wholesome to many people and without
which all of us would be better off?
Another curious reflection comes in
when discussing the raising of any
kind Of flesh food. How much of the
corn or oats goes to supply energy for
exercise on the part of the animal?
Every time a pig or steer takes a
trot or a gallop around the yard a
considerable amount of food is used
up in muscular action. This sounds
like joke, but it isn't, it is seri-
Gus observation on the part of vegeta-
rians.
The Germans, with their usual eff
cheney, have taken these matters in
hand. They have decreased the num-
Der of pigs not only to save food, but
to preserve a certain balance in the
ration. We may yet come to Kellogg's
point of view and begin the re-
duction of pork raising to save corn,
retaining only enough pigs to act as
scavengers of the kitchen refuse.
This much we can do, we can feed
our hogs with care. / wonder how
many Western farmers still feed their
pigs as they used to do by throwing
the corn into the pen? At that time,
with corn at Is cents bushel, it didn't
matter how much was trampled into the
mire, but now the case is different. We
are careful to clean our own plates,
and vet am not sure that the farmers
are making their cattle feed go as far
as it might by careful rationing. Ami
mails used to be overfed on our farms.
Are they being scientifically fed now?
Corn and wheat can win this war,
and when the final choice is made pigs
must go, cotton and wool be reduced
in amount, and cattle be raised without
exercise and in the most economical
way.
AS I write these things I am sud- |
denly taken anew with the wonder OF |
the changes that have come to this |
America of ours. That we of all ma
lions of the world should be seriously |
how to conserve our food |
supply, makes clearer than any other
measure the appalling blight which the
war, with its destructive agencies, has
thrown over the entire EARTH. 1t is in
credible but it is true. 1t is not only
rue, but is becoming each day more
,ital in our thinking. How shall we
'eed the allies, ourselves and the waves
If the North sea?
We must double production, we must
ave, and we must use with scientific
precision.

You bring Loves tender mercies in your

Above all flags you lift the conquering

And hold, invincible, Loves battle line.
o League of Kindness, in your far-Hung

You weave chain that reaches to Gods

And where blind guns are plotting for
the grave,
Yours are the lips that cheer, the arms

When all will love and all will lift as
