AND NOW THEY ARE COOKING
TOBACCO TO MAKE 1T BETTER

For good many years The American
Tobacco Company have been conducting a
series of experiments having as their
object the Improvement of smoking
tobaccos.
And it is interesting to know that one
of the greatest of their discoveries was one
of the simplest, and that was, that cooking
or toasting tobacco improved it in every
way. just as cooking most foods improves
them.
They took real Burnley tobacco, grown
in this country; toasted it as you would
toast bread; moistened it to replace the
natural moisture driven off by toastins
made it into cigarettes, called them
LUCKY STRIKE, the toasted cigarette, y
and offered them to the public.
Theresult has been the greateetdemand
ever created for any tobacco product in a
similar length OF time.
The change produced by toasting is not
only most wholesome, but the favor is
greatly improved, just as cooking improves
meat, for example.-Adv.

Serious Attention Demanded at

Litters This Year.

= Good Quarters Are One of
Best Investments.
Save the war littersl

Save the war littersi
Every owner of brood SOW, wheth-
er he lives on a large farm and has
many, or whether he is a suburbanite
and owns one, should feel a personal
responsibility to see that the pig lit
tiers born this spring are received
with the utmost care. That means the
matter of providing proper housing
for the brood sows, and their young
should have immediate attention. Saw
ing every pig possible in order that
one of the most urgent war needs of
the natiOn-more pork-can be sup
piled, should be the aim of every man
who owns hogs.
The high mortality among young
pigs in some parts of the country can
be materially reduced if proper hous-
Ing and feed are provided for the sows.
Investigations of the mortality among
pigs on the reclamation projects show
that approximately one-third of the
pigs born die before reaching the wean-
ing age. Losses on several northern
projects last season were even above
tklis average because of a severe sea-
Son. According to one investigation
which covered about fifty herds, repre-
senting $50 brood sows, the average
loss was about 80 per cent, while some
farmers lost so to 20 per cent of the
pigs.
Death Rate Is Large.
That the average death rate of
young pigs, not only on the projects,
but elsewhere is unnecessarily large
and that losses are in large measure

The visitor had dropped in 'just for

three hours after the minute was up.
Little Freddie had formed several

postponed till the departure of his

ing things.
Dear little manr gushed the visit
tor. And what is he thinking about
so deeply?"
Il was wondering If 1t wasn't time
for you to be going" said Freddie.
"Hush" said his mother. Then,
turning TO her guest: you mustn't be
offended Mrs. Smith. Children will go
hurting out the truth without think
ing, but they don't mean anything by
it"
Then Mrs. Smith recollected that she
had only three minutes In which to

PERSONAL ATTENTION TO
PIGS WILL REDUCE
HIGH MORTALITY.

Faithful. personal attention to
the sows at narrowing time, even
though 1t means long hours of
hard work by day and by night,
is the only assurance that the
1918 war filters can be made to
reach the necessary high aver
age. The hog grower who Is on
the job at this season will be
able to save the lives of many
pigs that might otherwise perish
in passing through the hazards
of the first few days. In ex-
tremely cold weather the pigs
will be in danger of chilling IN
less the hog house is heated.
To remedy this, place a few
heated bricks in the bottom of
basket or small box. Cover
with chaff or straw and put a
cloth over the top to keep In
the heat. Unless the sow OBJ
jects too seriously the pigs may
be rubbed dry with a soft cloth
and placed in a receptacle as
fast as they arrive. The de-
tails of attention which the SOW
and the pigs need at narrowing
time are set forth in a recently
revised publication of the Unit
ed States Department of Agri-
culture. Swine Management"

both before and after the pigs are

both before and after the pigs are
born.
1t has been found that the larger
losses usually occur on farms where
the housing facilities are poor. In
one investigation 1t was learned that
where good hog houses were used,
the average number of pigs raised in
litter was 5A, while on farms where
the housing was poor the average num-
Der reared from each litter was only
3 ITO. The average saving, therefore
where good houses were used, amount
ed to more than two pigs to the litter.
There are many kinds Of satisfac-
tory hog houses which can be built at
comparatively low cost. Anyone of
these will soon pay for itself in the in
creased number of pigs saved. Both
the individual house and the colony
hog house have place on the hog
farm. Both give very satisfactory re-
suits If they are properly constructed.
If only one can be had the colony
house usually Is to be preferred, es-
pecially where large number of sows
are to oe kept. The narrowing period
there are many sows. In such cases
each pen in the house may be used for
two or more sows during the period.
Assuming that two sows use pen and
that by reason of the satisfactory quar-
tiers provided two additional pigs are
saved In each litter, 1t would not be
long until the hog house paid for IT.
self. Good quarters are one of the
best investments the swine grower can
make.
Satisfactory Houses.
The satisfactory hog house provides
warmth, dryness, abundance of light,
ventilation, sanitation. and comfort.
To meet these requirements the house
need not be expensive. AS matter of
fact, many expensive hog houses are
not satisfactory, because they do not
possess all these requirements, while
many less expensive ones properly
planned and built give excellent salts

suggested plans of buildings may be
obtained from field representatives Of
the department of agriculture or from
the state agricultural colleges.

pecially in her feeding. is equally i'm
