CARE FOR BROOD S0WS
NECESSARY TO BRING
BEST QUALITY lITTERS

The SONS that VIII harrow IN
March and up to the middle OF
April have already been bred. If
these sOws produce good, strong,
vigorous litters and set these piss

Cor from now until the day Of far

RANGES 10 the sows narrowing good.
strong. vigorous litters is lack Cf
exercise. During the cold and
snowy weather hogs like TO lie
around the sleeping quarters and be
comfortable. That. however. is just
what they should not do all the
time. advise the specialists OF the
United States department Of agri-
culture.
Exercise Necessary.
The proper exercise for a brood
SOW is that which she will take vol
UNFAIRLY and not through force.
They should get their corn ration by
hustling for II i'm the stalk field and
not by getting it fed around the
sleeping quarters on feeding floors,
or ia troughs. Feed them ear corn
during the winter months and scat
ter il out In the stalk fields. The
manure spreader is good imple-
ment TO use in scattering this corn.
Don't be afraid it will be wasted,
for it won't. You can readily regu-
late the amount fed so that il Will
be picked up clean. and YOU will
find next spring that there is not a
bit of the corn lying around to 80
to waste.
Add Protein TO Corn Ration.
Protein feeds in the form Of
shorts. tankage, oil meal, or alfal-
IA hay should be supplied. Self
feeders can be used for these feeds,
and il is quite successful to grind
the alfalfa hay. Sows will cat a
larger percentage of alfalfa hay fed
in the ground form than when fed
in racks unground. This alfalfa
is generally cheaper on the corn
belt farms than any of the other
protein feeds and is a good balance
10 the corn ration.
BY following a few of these sim
pie methods the sows will be
brought To narrowing time capable
Of producing good strong pigs.
Every hos grower knows that if he
is going TO have pigs that do their
best from the start they must ne
cessarily be strong and vigorous at
narrowing time The proper care
of the brood SOW is not difficult and
should be carefully looked after by
every hos grower.

PARIS CONFIDENT OF
CERMANY'S SURRENDER
ARMISTICE OR INVASION
ALTERNATIVE FOR FOE.
Details as to Internal Revolt
Accepted as Neither Ficti-
tious Nor Superficial.

Paris, Nov. 9.-(5:45 a.m.)-Germany
will capitulate between now and Mon
day.
French opinion. which Is remarkably
restrained and conservative, Is unani-
nous in this view.
There is no tendency to exaggerate
happenings in Germany. but it is felt
that the Germans have had enough to
make 1t imperative for the government
to make peace at the earliest possible
moment.
NJ Copies, writing in the Figaro
fairly sums up the views Of all edi-
torial writers when he says:
"The details of revolutionary move
ments in Germany are lacking. but we
learn enough from hour to hour to feel
already that they are neither superb
cial nor fictitious. Do they contain
deep-set revolution? Are they but
riots due to the reaction Of defeat
What authority does the republic pro-
claimed at Munich possess? These are
questions which concern Germany
alone"
While Germany is rejecting on the
allies terms. Marshal Foch continues
his blows without intermission. The
German army may break at any mo-
ment. There were signs OF a new re-
treat from the Scheldt yesterday, and
the French are along the Meuse over
a front of fifteen miles. The alterna-
tive for Germany now Is armistice OF
invasion--not evasion.

Vain EFFORT TO
CHECK ADVANCE
Twenty-Five German Divisions
Thrown Into Savage Bat
tie on MeuSe.

With the American Army North OF
Verdun, Nov. 7.-(Delayed.)-Q. N. 81
Twenty two German divisions (264,-
900 men), have been thrown INTO the
savage battle on the Meuse riveC in
vain effort to check the rapid ad-
vance Of the Americans. The Yanks
started the seventh day Of their new
drive less than four miles south of
the historic city of Iedan, while the
French were only slightly less than
five miles away and are both driving
ahead in a northeasterly direction.
(Since Mr.. Ford's cablegram was
filed, it has been announced that the
Americans have captured the western
outskirts of Sedan)
The glare from the burning titles OF
Sedan and Mouzon lighted the way
for the advance of the khaki and hori-
zon blue columns during the night.
The Franco American forces today
were less than nine miles from le-
zieres, q vital railway junction behind
he German front.
east of the Meuse river has reached
depth of nearly three miles, which
was brilliant exploit considering the
difficult character Of the terrain and
the intensity Of The enemy's defense.
Two fresh divisions were thrown
into the battle on that eide of the
river which is an index Of the er-
mans desperation.
The Americans have maintained a
continuous advance, driving across
fortified woods, hills and canals. and
past the snaky bends Of the Meuse
river. Marshes were encountered and
crossed.
At dusk yesterday the Yanks reached
the western outskirts of Mouzon, which
was in flames. The left flank reached
Coinage.
The enemy's supreme task today was
the holding Of the heights of the
Meuse, which he had retained since
1914.
Renewed Advance.
The American troops east OF the
| Meuse river renewed their advance to-
day, progressing north Of Danvillers ir
the race of machine gun resistance.
There was sharp machine gun and
artillery activity along the Meuse dur
ing the night in the region of Sezey
and Wadelincourt.

North Of Journal we are estab-
lished on the east bank of the Scheldt
about Herinnes and Berchem.
(These two towns are about nine
miles apart.)
| Maubeuge was the last important
| French fortress In the hands of the
Germans. Before the war 1t was con-
sidered fortress Of the first ass and
guarded the Namur-C Charleroi -oute
into France by the way OF the Sambre
river.
The town is situated on both banks
Of the Sambre river and was founded
In the seventh century. Several famoxF
battle fields of French wars prior to
1900 are in close proximity to Maui

in the autumn of 1914 after heavy
fighting with the British and French.

French forces today continued their
push toward the Belgian frontier, with
the Germans persistlng in their de-

The Germans used artillery and ma

needed more time to break contact
with the French.
At other places OF the front the
progress Of the French was maintained
with undiminished speed. Nothing but
the prompt signing of the armistice

Germany's answer to the allied terms
for an armistice is not expected TO
reach Marshal Foch's headquarters
until the middle of this Saturday
afternoon at the very earliest. The
courier left for Spa, the German head
quarters, Immediately after the terms
were delivered and the enemy had been
given seventy-two hours in which TO
send his answer.
Few details of the terms have been
divulged, nor have any of the dramatic
chiefs headquarters been reported
Nothing but the briefest dispatches
have told of an event the consequences
of which will affect the whole subse-
quent history of civilization.
America was represented at the
meeting by Vice-Admiral William
Sims.
In the meantime, the allied armies
are grimly sticking to their task OF
driving the foe from the soil of France
No one can exactly locate the line
where the contending armies are nght..
ing today. 1t is known, however, that
the French have reached Mezieres and
that the British have captured Avesnes
Il is probable that the Germans now
hold a strip of French soil not over
six or seven miles in width from east
of Valenciennes to the south bank Of
the Moselle river.
Farther south the line runs along the
frontier, but is nowhere more than
coupis Of miles west of Germany's do
main.
This fact and the obvious ability Of
the allied armies to complete theii
triumph over the enemy may bring
about a quick decision by the military
chiefs of Germany. Emperor William
is at Spa, 1t is said. and 1t is consid-
cred possible that the armistice mis-
