Salt For Hogs

It Is just as essential for hogs to
have salt as it is for other farm ami
mails. The body of a hog requires a
certain amount of mineral to build
up his bones. Probably you have mo-
ticed shoats that were weak in the
back and would frequently drag their
hind parts, or may be you have had
a young SOW become paralyzed after
'arrowing her first litter. Along with
insufficient exercise, those conditions
are due to a lack Of salt.
Ordinary barrel salt is the best to
Use. Rock sale 8 difficult to eat and
loes not readily dissolve. Salt should
be fed in some sort Of a self feeder
so that II will be before the hogs at
al times. 1t should be protected
III times. If you have not been feod-
ing the hogs salt you had better start
n easy by feeding small amounts at
frst and gradually work up to full
.eed. DR.. C s. Weaver, Inspector in
Charge, State College Extension Divi-
sion.

Auto Incense Unfair

Pierre Dakotan--Thc state auto de-
partment is out of number plates and
the prospect of getting more is not
decidedly good. This number plate
business is certainly a great waste.
For a single car it does not seem
much, but when the plates are stack
ed up in the state house in dray load
lots II shows that there is a great
waste OF material that should be
eliminated from the annual item of
destruction that Is now going on. AS
a. matter of fact it strikes US that
this whole auto license is unfair and
a farce. The automobile is just as
necessary nowadays and in fact more
So, than the common wagon and yet
no one had the temerity to propose a
special "a on the old surrey or the
blackboard. So far as keeping up
roads is concerned that is now recog-
nized as a commercial and economic
necessity and the whole auto tax
business is there fore a waste. The
man with a a should be taxed on
its value the same as a man with a
wagon. For the purpose of recognize
ing motor cars in case of damage, it
might be well enough to compel every
a to have a permanent number. The
car plate matter must consume many
carloads of oatmeal every year
throughout the country and the
amount of waste in the production
and distribution of these plates Is it
self q good sized sum.
