THE PROFIT IN HOGS

With hogs rapidly climbing to.
ward the $40 mark and conditions
indicating that they will maintain
that mark, the question of further
attention, with profitable results, to
the hog raising industry is suggested.
This year, as was forecast, is seeing
the highest prices for hogs and when
the low cost of production is con-
sidered 1T should encourage the hog
industry and help to show greater
activity from now on. There are
so many economical ways in which
food can be procured for hog rails
ing. Phe hogs can pick up the fallen
fruit and vegetables that are left
as well as cleaning up what is left
from the grain fields. Many farmers
are reporting that the actual cost of
raising their hogs does not amount
to IL cents pound, and deducting
this from the price of $40 a hundred
leaves an excellent margin of profit.
Furthermore, another thing to be
considered is the shipment of hogs.
Farmers should ship to the nearest
depot where there are packing house
facilities. Not only does this get
him quicker. returns on his invest
ment, but in addition it saves shrink
age and enables him to get the mar
ket price he intended to get when
he shipped his hogs. Whereas, If
he ships great distance, the market
may be depleted when his shipment
arrives, and he also has shrinkage
to consider Those who needed the
words of the wise last year and de-
voted much of their efforts to hog
raising this year are now reaping
the benefit.
Barley is also recommended as hog
feed. Also those who planted sue
cessive crops instead of one season
crops are in better position to profit
On their hogs thru proper and in
expensive feed.
Farmers of Utah, southern Idaho
and Nevada have recently had their
attention directed to the Ogden mar
1et thru the high prices prevailing
1t the Ogden Union stock yards. The
maximum price paid during the past
week was $18.35 per hundred. This |
s the amount that was paid for fin
shed hogs. Such animals can be
eadily produced, farm experts say,
any great amount Of grain,
t the farmers will use care and eau
ion in handling them. High protein
eeds are advisable to bring this
Luick and complete finish to animals
which have been raised largely on
'asture and alfalfa.

HARDEN WARNS PRUS-
SIANISTS OF COMING
RUSSIAN STORM

WASHINGTC4[, D. C.-Another
violent attack on Prussian policy,
with warning of the storm brewing
in Russia and a frank tribute to
British and American soldiers fight
ing for their ideals has just been
published in the Zunkunft by Maxi!
MILAN Harden, the free-spoken Ger
man editor. An official dispatch
from France Thursday quotes ex-
tracts from the article, commenting
particularly upon the action of the
German censOrs in permitting it to
appear.
AT the moment when the fire of
Slavic hatred coming from four cor
ners of Russia Is developing into one
immense fame" Harden asked, chow
can our rulers think of finding sup
porters for thrones and supplying
candidates for them? Are our rulers
DESTROYS of supporting the plans of
the adversary and uniting in one
fire all the sparkling flames which
are burning or smouldering between
Vladivostok and Sebastopol; between
Murmansk and Fiume?"
Harden declared the soul of mod
ern Germany is dominated by the
idea of bondage, is summed up in
down on your knees"
you think that the British and
Americans are such as the conserva-
tive papers represent them" he
wrote. "They have proved them
selves to be very different on the
User, at Arras and at Dormans They
have shed the best of their blood.
spent hundreds of thousands without
dreams of conquest simply for their
ideals. Does this in any way cor
respond to the picture that you have
drawn of them?"

!. W. W. DEFENDS
SABOTAGE Use
Haywood Says it is the
Strongest Weapon of
Working Glass;" He
Tries to Justify Their
Strikes.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES was defined
as the biggest, strongest and most
wholesale weapon of the working
class" by William D. Haywood, gen
eral secretary and treasurer of the /.
w. w., at the trial Tuesday of 100
leaders of the organization, charged
with violation of the espionage law.
I'VE believe in using sabotage to
protect humanity, said Haywood.
1T prevents dishonest employers
from adulterating food products and
other necessities of life. Sabotage
must be used if the capitalistic class
is to be put out of business.
ut is the only practical means of
protecting humanity from being rob-
bed and poisoned
The witness referred to a recent
strike of hotel employers in New
York, where is was alleged the strik-
ers used mickey finn" powders and
sting bombs and said he disapproved
OF such methods. He said at the
time he made speech to the strikers
in which he advised them to punish
their bosses by serving double por-
tons of food to the patrons.
Haywood attempted to justify the
callign of the strike by the l. w. w.
to compel the release of members
illegally arrested. He said many of
the members accused of being evad-
ers of the army draft were in reality
arrested because they were strikers.
Haywood said the general strike
called by the l. w. w. last August in
the west was called off because the
rank and file of the organization
to return to work and not be-
cause large number of the leaders
were arrested by the government.

in poultry growing requires expert

knowledge.
The United States department OF
agriculture, thru it's boys and girls
poultry club work, is imparting to
thousands of boys and girls expert
information that will contribute
largely to their success in life.
Encourage your boy or girl to join
poultry club-and encourage your
community, if it has not club, to
organize one.
You can be contributing to the sue
cess and prosperity both of your child
and your neighborhood. ..
Determining Chickens Ages
A common way of testing the age
of dressed poultry, as described by
home economics specialists of the U.
S. department Of agriculture, is to
take between the thumb and finger
the end Of the breastbone, furtherest
from the head, and attempt to bend
1t to one side. In very young bird,
such as "broiler" chicken or a
green goose, it will be easily bent,
like the cartilage in the human ear;
in a bird year or so old it will be
brittle, and in an old bird, tough and
hard to bend or break.
Tricky dealers have been known to
break the end of the breastbone be-
fore showing the bird, thus rendering
the test useless.
Poultry Manure Valuable
Poultry manure is more valuable
than the manure of any other COM
mon farm animal, it's analysis shows,
and is particularly we'll adapted to
Poultry raisers should
either use it on their own gardens or
sell it, thus increasing the profits of
their flocks.

UNITED STATES
LIBERTY LOANS
Growing with Increas-
ing Ration. Fourth
One to be Huge Sum.

The United States entered the wal
on April 6, 1917. Eighteen days
later by practically unanimous vote
congress passed the liberty loan bono
bill.
On May 2 the first liberty loan
was announced, on May IA the de.
tails were made public, and on the
fifteenth the campaign began anG
closed one month later. The issue
was for $2,O00,000,OO0, the bonds
bearing 81 per cent interest and
running for 1880 years. The bonds
carried the conversion privilege, en-
titling the holder, if he chose, to con-
vert them into bonds of a later issue
bearing a higher rate of interest.
Four and a half million subscribers
from every section of the country,
representing every condition. race,
and class of citizens, subscribed for
more than 3,0OO,O00,0OO of the
bonds: Only $2,0O0,000,0OO was
allotted.
The outstanding features of the
first liberty loan were the promptness
with which it was arranged and con-
Quoted, the patriotism of the news
papers, banks, corporations, organ
izations, and people generally in
working for it's success, and the
heavy over-subscription of more than
SO per cent. Another notable fea-
ture was that there was no Interrupt
tion to the business of the country
occasioned by the unprecedented de-
mand upon it's money resources.
The second liberty loan campaign
opened on October 1, 1917, and
closed on October 27. The bonds
of this issue bear 4 per cent interest
and run for 1925 years. They carry
the conversion privilege. 1t was an
nounced that SO per cent of the over
would be taken. Nine
million subscribers subscribed to
$4,617,532,000 of the bonds, an
oversubscription of "a per cent.
Only $3,S0S,I66,150 of the bonds
was allotted.
This campaign was marked with
the same enthusiastic support of the
public as its predecessor. The labor
and fraternal organizations were es-
pecially active in this campaign, and
The women of the country did eff
cient organized work which greatly
to the success of the
loan. The men in the army and navy
worked for and subscribed largely
20 the loan.
The third liberty loan campaign
opened on April 6, 1918, one year |
exactly after our entrance into the |
war, and closed on May 4. The |
ponds of this issue bear " per cent |
interest and run for ten years, are
lot subject to redemption prior to
and carry no conversion
privilege. The loan was announced
or SO, 100000, but the right was
'eserved to accept all additional SUBJ
'criptions. Seventeen million SUBJ
cribers subscribed for $4,170,O19,-
$50 of the bonds, all of which was
,llotted.
A great feature of this loan was
Is very wide distribution among the
eople and thruout the union and the
act that the country districts
