MERCER NEVER LOST FAITH
Prosecuted Belgian Cardinal Always
Confident That God Would Save
the Unhappy Country.

Cardinal MERCER, archbishop of Ma
lines, Belgium, was not actually i'm
prisoned by the Germans, but his free
dom was restrained. His offense was
the issuing of a pastoral letter to his
people in January, 1915, In which he
said: Il have gone through most of
the places in my diocese which have
been wasted. What have
seen Of the ruins and the ashes passes
anything that, in spite of my most
acute fears, could ever have mag
ined. Churches, schools, char
liable institutions, hospitals, converts,
to considerable number, are unfit for
use or are in ruins. Whole villages
have almost disappeared. God
will save Belgium, my brothers, we
cannot doubt it. Let us say, rather,
he Is saving her. Is there a single
patriot who does not feel that glory
has come to Belgium? Which of us
would have the courage to tear out
the last page of our history? Which
of us can look without pride on the
splendor of the glory that our muir
dered country has won?"

OBTAIN TWO LITTERS A YEAR
when Sows Are Given Best Of Feed
and Care This Is Good Way to
Increase Production.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
1t Is common practice among farm
erS to require their sows to produce
two filters a year. Although the sows
have had good care, they will natural
ly be run down somewhat in condition,
because the greater portion of the feed
consumed has been utilized for the
production of milk.
The sow needs q rest before she is
bred again, and the time for this Is
between the weaving and breeding Pc
RODS. Intelligent feeding will bring
the sow from thin condition into a
good, strong, vigorous condition in a
short time. When this Is done she will
be In proper condition to assume her
duty when breeding time arrives. II
the sow is bred LII thin, rundown
condition, she must resume work i'm
mediately, and she will naturally be
weak and subject to the inroads of dis
ease. A little cold contracted in this
condition may cause death, while
strong, healthy SOW will resist such
attacks. It is the general belief that
sows in good vigorous breeding condi-
ton conceive more readily, thus short
ening the narrowing period for the
herd. Alfalfa, rape, clover, or any pas
ture which is palatable to swine, with
some grain in addition, is excellent
feed for bringing the sow back to
breeding condition.
There is no good reason why a sow
should not produce two filters year
when properly handled. To accom-
plish this the sow should be bred to
farrow, say, for example, in March, and
bred again to farrow the early part
of September. A sow bred about No
vember Is will farrow about March g
to 8. The pigs should nurse eight
weeks. The SOW should be rebred by
May 20 so as to farrow on or after
September 6. The pigs could then
nurse until November 3. The chances
for probably rearing two crops Of pigs
from sow annually are undoubtedly
far better in regions of mild climate
and short winters than where the win
tiers are long and severe.

Don't ignore the little pains and

received shelled corn and whole soy
beans in equal proportions, while the
other received the same quantities Of
shelled corn and whole oats. The av-
erage gain Of each lamb during pc
riod Of 10 weeks was 1872 pounds when

1852 pounds of roughage were required
in the oats ration. In another expert
ment the same rations were fed for IL
weeks to two lots of nine lambs each.

gained 119 pounds In weight and pro-

HEAVY STRAIN ON HIGHWAYS
Roads That Stand Traffic In Normal
Times Now Called Upon to With
stand Motortrucks.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Apparently the point has been
reached where the demands of traffic
have exceeded the strength of the
average road to meet them. High
ways designed to Withstand the
pounding of ordinary loads, that have
stood up under imposts they were in
tended to sustain, no longer appear
to be adequate to meet the present
day conditions. Congestion on our
railways, possibly more acute in some
sections than in others. has put upon
our roads transportation burden new
er expected and consequently not pro-
Eided for by the engineers who design
ed the highway systems of the states.
Roads have been designed with the
same care as given to other structures
and with the same regard for the pur-
poses for which they were constructed
and the burdens they were called upon
to bear. Widespread failure is DEM
onstrative Of the fact that roads can
not carry unlimited loading. Their ca
pacity is limited. II it is exceeded
habitually and constantly, then they
cannot survive.
The products of our farms and of
our factories must be moved. The
wants of our urban dwellers must be
met. But the needs of our country in
volved in this great conflict are para
mount to the needs of single communi-
ties, and thus when avalanches Of
freight destined to fill the greater ne
cessity made imperative the partial
closing of our vast system of rail trans
portation to the smaller, the relief ap-
