He alleges desertion cn Aug. 5. 1916. This is the second time inc couple have figured in the divorce courts. In 1916 the wife started suit on the ground of cruelty but the husband contested it and the suit was dismissed. The couple were married in March, 1916, while Husted was student at Yale and Mrs. Hus- ted was employed as a manicurist at the Hotel Taft in the Elm City. from the French and Italian makers It was at first presumed that the American factories would get the en- tire allowance.
 The American figures are propor- tonal to the total imports during the years of 1912 and 1915, exclusive.
 British manufacturers are still struggling with slow production and are keeping up demands that their industry be protected by keeping out cars of foreign makes.

Farm Bureau Membership

During the past week several men
have come to the County Agents OF
fee and signed up for membership Ill
the Farm Bureau This is indeed en-
couraging and sets good example
for the rest of the farmers in Dela-
ware County. These men realize that
the Farm Bureau has passed beyond
the experimental stage and Is a per-
manent institution and that they nave
heen benefited by its presence ana
are willing to lend support. we trust
that other farmers will DO as these
men have done and not wait to be
called upon for membership. II you
do NOT understand what the farm
Bureau is for ask some OF the neish-
bors who have memberships or cali
ON the County Agent, or any OF 'he
Directors of the Farm Bureau. me!
will he glad to talk it over with YOU
Brood Sows
Are YOU making any special enort
to take care of the brood sows! IL
is getting that time OF the year ~hen
this mart of the farm work should
ha carefully considered. The brood
SOW has in many cases not been get
ting sufficient exercise to keep IN
healthy condition and it is mistake
to feed corn alone as 1t has tendeh-
cy to be fattening. While II IS wen
to have the SOW in good condition be-
fore narrowing but overly fat condi-
ton is detrimental.
The ration at this time should have
protain feeds in 1t. For example
oil meal or tankage along with corn
are satisfactory. The ration should
have a liberal amount OF protaln
feeds at this time, which Is especially
required to produce we'll formed ut
tiers Of pigs.
A good condiment made up az FOL
lows should be put In the self-feeder
and kept before the sows all the time.
One bushel of wood ashed; busnei
charcoal; peck air Stacked lime;
hounds OF salt; 2 pounds Of sulphur
and one1hah pound Of copperas. MIX
these ingredients thoroughly and place
before the hogs as indicated. This
will not only help to keep the worms
under control but will also keep the
animal in thrifty condition.
A few days before narrowing the
amount Of concentrates given the
sow should be reduced and slop
given of some light feed that's might
include certain amount of mill feeds
or milk as laxative. After the pigs
have sucked one or two days the
feeds may be increased until full
ration is given.

Delaware County Farm Bureau

II there are many sows on hand at
this time they should be separated
so that they will not be so crowded.
One or two cases have come to our
attention where large sows have been
put together and in endeavoring to
keep warm they have crowded each
other and two or three excellent and
high-priced brood sows have had to
be killed on this account. Too great
emphasis cannot be placed upon the
care at this time of narrowing. One
can we'll afford to spend few nights
if necessary, watching the animals to
assure care and attention at the time
when it is needed. Do not neglect
this little duty as a loss OF several
pigs at this time has tendency to
cut down the profits.

Boys Working Reserve

Fifty thousand boys between the
ages OF 16 and 81 registered in the
United States Boys Working Reserve
is the minimum limit for Iowa in the
enrolment campaign to begin in Della
ware county today as part OF state
and national enrolment week from
January goth to 26th. When Ne
braska can register 10000 and Mis-
sissippi $4,000, Iowa ought to set a
record that will make every other
state in the country hustle to beat.
There are 100000 boys in the state
who are eligible to membership in this
organization.
The idea of the Boys Working Re-
serve when it was first organized last
year was to mobilize the boys of the
towns and cities and train them for
work on the farm over summer. So
Loyalty did the boys respond and do
their part, that the U. S. Department
Of Labor decided to continue the or
ganization for 1919, and by largely
it, not only tide the farm
labor question over the food crisis
that is coming this year but also to
help boys interested in business or
Industrial lines to find suitable sum-
mer employment where they can be
If best service to the country.
Some time this week in every high
school and consolidated school in the
county meetings will be held at which
he superintendents will explain the
reserve idea, hand out QUESTIONABLE
md enrolment blanks to the boys and
lrge them to join this, the biggest
,oys' organization ever organized in
America. A committee Of five, head
ID by Prot. J. s. Hilliard, as chairman,
lave charge Of the enrolment in this
county.
