SEPARATE BOAR FROM sows
Practice Of Permitting Him to Run
With Herd is Frowned Upon by
Many Swine Breeders.

The practice Of letting the boar run
with the sows Is generally frowned
upon by swine breeders. There are
many reasons why the herd does bet
ter II the boar IL kept separate. Ne
worries the rest Of the hogs as well rs
himself when he Il with the herd. The
waste and possible injury to the boar
by too much breeding. II more than
one SOW comes In heat at the same
time. is useless and can be avoided
by keeping the boar alone and turning
the SOW In TO him. This assists In
keeping records. The owner knows
when the SOW was bred. Also know
ing when she Is due TO farrow. he can
be prepared for this event, which may
be the cause of saving one or more
pigs. Small litters as well as weak
pigs are as often the direct results of
letting the boar run with the sows as
they are due to a poor brood SOW.
And to use a boar whose breeding
powers have been impaired by unwise
herd management Is a financial loss
to the owner.

ANTI-SPY BILL
UP IN SENATE

WASHINGTON, April German
spies, propogandists and persons max
ing disloyal utterances were denounc-
ed in the senate today when an effort
was made to rush through a house bill
providing penalties of 20 years impris-
onment and $4,000 fine for interfer-
ence with government bond sales, acts
intending to interfere with the army
draft and disloyal statements.
I'VE have got to do something to
catch these scoundrels and spies all
over the country" said Senator Over
man Of North Carolina. People are
taking the law into their own hands on
the ground that congress is not pass
ing necessary laws. We hear reports
OF mobs everywhere"
Senator Lodge Of Massachusetts de-
clared the bill would mot catch sin
gle spy" asserting that spies do not
do their work publicly or openly or
make disloyal utterances. German
propaganda has been "notoriously con-
Quoted" and the bills purposed to
broaden the espionage law, Senator
Walsh Of Montana said. He said some
federal courts have made strained
construction" of existing law and dis
charged persons who have denounced
the president and the nation and OBJ
structed the draft and bond subscript-

TAF7'S DOCTOR
TO SPEAK HERE

Dr. Charles E. Barker, health adj
vocate and former physical adviser to
ex-President Taft, will give series
of health talks in Richmond, April II
to 10.
Dr. Barker believes in health as a
patriotic duty, pointing out that it is
our duty now to be at our highest
point OF fficiency. If the men in the
camps are to be put in the best physi-
cal condition to face the struggle in
France, the men at home should be in
good physical condition to back up
efficiently the men at the front, he
says.
Physical fitness rather than exag-
gerated interest in athletics is advo-
Gated by Or. Barker. Health and en-
ergy and the personality that comes
from perfect health from moderate
physical development he claims.
The subject of the lectures which
Ae delivers are Patriotism and
Meath" THE Finest of Arts, or How
to be Always Happy" How to Make
the Most Out of Life" How Woman
Can Find and Keep Good Health, "
