No branch of live stock farming
gives better results than the raising
of well-bred swine when conducted
with a reasonable amount of intelli-
gence. The hog is one of the most
important animals to raise on the farm,
either for meat or for profit, and no
farm is complete unless some hogs are
kept to aid in the modern method of
farming. The farmers of the South

the hog, are rapidly increasing their

Germany Has Lost Mexican Trade.

Germany Has Lost Mexican Trade.
All the drinking glasses and most
of-the jewelry sold in the Salinas Cruz
district of Mexico are of American
manufacture, according to recent re-
port from Norton F. Brand, United
States consul at Selinas Cruz. Prior
to the war all the jewelry and glass
ware were imported from Germany
and Spain. The war has eliminated
Germany entirely from the Mexican
markets and the activity of American
business men has been so great that
imports from Spain have been mate
rally reduced.
But Mr.. Brand warns American
manufacturers that the goblets and
tumbIers they ship to Mexico are too
small. The tropics are a thirsty cline
and Mexicans drink deeply. Mr.. Brand
declares If American merchants do not
send in larger glasses, their wares will
be driven from the field when Euro
pean supplies are again available aft
er the war. He urges upon American
business men the necessity Of studying
| the needs of the Mexican trade.

used to consume various unmarketable
substances. The value of milk is
known on every farm although it may
not be fully appreciated, and any one
who has fed pigs knows the keen
appetite they have for milk and it's
products. In the neighborhoo of
many large diaries pork production
has become a very prominent and lu-
crative supplement to the dairy indus
try. The hog is also large factor in
cheapening the production of beef.
Hogs are placed in the cattle feed
lots to utilize the corn and other feeds
which the cattle have failed to digest
and which otherwise would be wasted.
Hogs following steers in many cases
have increased the profit per steer by
Sc to SO. Farmers and hotel and res
taurant owners are using kitchen
refuse to produce Salable pork. In
fact, as consumer of by-products the
hog has no rival.
However, this propensity in many in.
stances is being taken unfair advan-
tage of through ignorance and lack OF
care. Milk products, animal offal, etc.,
which contain disease germs, es-
pecially those of tuberculosis, are
given to hogs. This practice not only
results in spreading disease but causes
loss in the hogs themselves through,
condemnation at slaughter. All such
products should be effectively sterilized
