Not a Race Horse

The millionaire who buys race horse to crafty
his vanity is gambler.
Paying ten thousand dollars for a race horse and
ten thousand dollars for young Berkshire pig are
very different.
The wise farmer pays what seems TO the unin-
formed an extravagant price for young boar pig
because he knows the price will come back in in
creased production.
The five pigs at ten thousand dollars each sired by
Epocha, the greatest Berkshire boar in the world,
and the fourteen pigs selling at one thousand dol

Why These Prices Are Paid

1t happens that H. w. Gossard, by whom this
statement is made in the public interest, has con-
centrated successfully upon the problem of produc-
ing the highest possible type of Berkshire, which
in his opinion is the very first among the pork
producing breeds.
The prices for which the sons Of this Berkshire
boar Epochal have sold are printed here, in order
that the farmers have the facts and realize the
difference between depoting time corn and care to
inferior animals, and depotng the same time, corn
and care and intelligence to the selection and breed
ing of the highest grade animals.
We realize that the best types of guns the best
types of ships the best types of flying machines are
necessary in war to look after the great fighting
problem.
The best type of animals is also necessary to look
after the food problem

Of pork production
On the Colorado farm there will be three thousand
sows able to raise on an average of twenty-four
thousand hogs annually, and on the Indiana and
Kansas farms two thousand sows, capable of rails

Gossars Berkshire Boar EPOCHA the Worlds Greatest Hog
Farmers will be interested knou boar this kind brought
nett fifty dollars in

1ais each, have all been bought, not by specuators,
but by actual pork raisers, men who have gone in
to the question deeply, thoroughly, and know that
son with ultimate results.
H. w. Gossard, owner of the Gossard Breeding
Estates at Martinsville, Ind, Preston Kan, and
Axia, Col, years ago foresaw that the size of hogs
must be increased against the time when pork pro-
duction would fall short of pork consumption. He
instituted world wide search for the very best
blood-devoted to the task years of intelligent ef-
fort and spared himself no cost in finding and pro-
ducing the Berkshire boar that embodied TO the
fullest extent the points of pig perfection, namely,

This statement is published in Washington where
1t will be seen by Congress because it9 matter
that interests the Congress of the United States
which has for its great problem today the feeding
of the United States ard the feeding of the Allies.
Epochal, the producer of more pork, the founda-
tion food for all people, the source where the abSo
lutte necessary food for our Allies and for our army
and navy must come, interests every Congressman
as much as any law, any big battle-ship picture,
any photograph of marching troops.
The Washington times., 1918-03-18
THE government and Mr. Hoover urge
every American to raise pig If possible.
Il The question Is what kind of pig?

Pigs are we'll built or badly built like freight ships.
Congressman should through local newspapers
and directly through the farmers, LET every farmer
know what can be done by having the right stock
to start with.
The Berkshire boar Epochal shown on this page,
Is built for carrying pork the right kind of ship
is built for carrying freight. Epochal is built right
the weight, the solid meat are there.
One pig, four months old, from this boar Is worth
ten thousand dollars simply because such pig can
produce hogs that for the same weight in feed will
give invariably greater weight in pork than other
hogs

FINANCES AND MARKETS
Republican A. P. Leased Wire]

NEW YORK. Feb. 27.-Aided by sev eral increased dividends and stimu- lated by pools and related professional interests, today's stock market aug mented recent advances in a number of special issues.
 Continental Can directors increased the common dividend from five to six per cent annually, and Cnandler Motors was advanced from an eight to twelve per cent basis. Limitations that other industrial companies are contemplat- ing similar action were credited be- cause of recent large returns.
 Additional factors of favorable im- port included the improved state of the iron and steel industry, as indi- cated by the marked increase of capacity reported by the United states Steel corporation and advices from Mexico which gave impetus to the oil division.
 Transcontinentals ana coalers were the foremost features of the railway division at gains of to points, minor issues such as Missouri Pacific pre- ferred, Wabash and Fries also respond ing to a moderate inquiry.

COMB SAGE TEA IN
 LFELESS GRAY HAIR
Look young! Common garden Sage and Sulphur darken so naturally
 nobody can tell

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-- fully darl1ened, glossy and abundant with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull. faded or streaked appear ance. this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for .Wyetn's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get a large bottle of this old time recipe, ready to use, for about 50 cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry. itchy scalp and falling hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, because it darkens so nat urally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied-it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to it's natural color and looks glossy, soft and abun- dant-Adv-

GRAIN

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-Hardening of grain values today accompanied ces- sation of peace gossip. Corn closed steady at a net advance of a shade, with March $1.27% and May $1.267s O $1.27. Oats gained 2s O 15c. Provisions finished 20c to 27c down. Subsistence of talk about possibility of the von Hertling address affording some pros pect of an early end of hostilities put the bears at disadvantage in the corn market throughout the day. Values were strengthened also by notice from the directors of the exchange that fur ther trading in the February delivery had been prohibited and that settle ments would have to be made at the maximum price allowed for futures, SIPS a bushel. In the late dealings, however, the fact that the weather waa excellent for a heavy movement of corn from rural sources to primary centers acted as a weight on prices.
 Likelihood of a falling off in receipts tended to stimulate demand for oats.
 Sharp breaks in the price of hogs weakened provisions.
 Close:
 Corn: March s1.27%; May $1.26I.
 Oats: March S9Ac; May S77Sc.
 Pork: May S4S.02.
 Lard: May S25.S7; July s26.05.
