Old Methods OF Caring for Swine arc
No Longer Practical.

Clemson College. April lS.-A few
years ago farm boys stopped" the
hogs or pitched" them some ears Of
corn. To-day the pig club boy gives
HIS pigs balanced ration. lie is
gaining scientific knowledge OF
feeds and feeding. lie is learning
that if We are to produce pork cheap
ly, IA grea, deal Of attention must
he given to pasture building and to
the growing OF forage crops. Only
III very rare eases can money be made
in feeding il grain ration alone the
year round. Quite often forage is
the deciding factor between profit and
loss. says w. &. Parsons. pig club
agent. His suggestions will nc OF
value to the pig club members and
other good farmers as we'll.
ForageS are not alone valuable for
cheap feed. but they arc great aid
in developing bone, muscle and CON
stitutional vigor in pigs. 4 good pig.
when kept in Il pen, very often be-
comes unthrifty. Therefore, any plan
Of pork production which does not
have in it the use OF forage crops is
very likely to prove Improbable. And
now is the time to plan for the pro-
ducti0n Of these crops. 1t will be too
late to do this next fall.
The hog is a grazing animal. and
to be grown cheaply must be provided
with pasture crops. Among the val
uablc pasture crops for hogs are
Bermuda grass. lespedeza, the clo-
vcrs and alfalfa. Plan now to have
Il succession of these pasture crops
throughout the year.
Feeds that are rich in protein. such
as shorts, middlings and tankage, so
essential to the proper development
or hogs, are high in price and hard
TO get. 1t is. therefore, important
to have homegrown crops that are
known to be rich in protein. Cow
peas, soy beans, peanuts, velvet
beans. oats. rye and rape are good
substitute feeds Your county agen,
Is anxious to tell you how to grow
these crops.
But protein suppl 'ement should
be fed for economical gains. The
hog makes greater and cheaper gains
if he has a balanced ration. Give
your pigs plenty Of green feeds plus
q light feed Of corn. shorts, middlings
or ground oats or tankage. and then
watch them grow.

LOOKING THE ISSUE IN THE EYE.

There are one or two things about
look sQuarely in the eye.
To begin with, we authorized the
bills; we owe the money. and it's
got to be paid.
Moreover, it's going to be paid.
TO fight the war took money: to
win. still more moncy-and we had
to win
We we're ready to fight as long
as necessary We were ready to
subscribe TO loan after loan--aS
many as might be needed. We were
willing to givc--to sacrifice without
stint We had 10 win at all costs.
costs.
Or course we knew that the war
would end some time. but no man
knew when. Therefore. to make
the war as short as possible. we pre-
pared for Il struggle Of indefinite
length. 1t was necessary to plan in
advancc--and we prepared on Il
StupcndOuS scale.
This meant. Of necessity. that no
matter when the lighting stopped
there would be bills unpaid. The
fact that the war ended sooner than
anyone expected does not relieve us
Of the obligation to pay the bills.
Indeed. it should make us all the
more willing. for If the struggle had
debt would have been thirty-Six bill
lion dollars more than ii now is, and
The toll OF dead would have been
frightful.
But we arc not being asked to
sacrifice to give. We will not have
to subscribe to loan after loan The
war has been won. and the bond is
sue that is being offered is not mere
tory loan--the one that finishes the
job
Now. there is another matter-thc
question Of taxes.
There are only two ways by which
the government can raise the re-
quired money---by bonds and by
taxes And 1t may be set down as
matter Of certain conviction that
the government is going to raise the
money. 1t has no intention Of re-
pudiating its honorable obligations.
But every dollar paid out in taxes
is water over the dam. The money
is gone---for good and proper pur-
pose. but gone nevertheless. 1t
draws no interest-at least none for
you. No man ever yet re-
ceivcd interest on the taxes he paid.
Money invested in bonds is still
on the job. 1t strengthens your
credit; it makes you Il shareholder
in your government, and day and
night it Is working for you draw
ing interest.
Taxes or which?
Bonds, Of coursc-Victory- Liberty
Bonds. Not only because we owe
tho money. not only because We l"vc
won the war but because we want
to settle the bill and get it behind
us
The government has pledged its
faith.
We are the government

TUG SINKS, SEAMEN DROWN.
Returning Soldiers Witness Catas-

New York. April 1.-THE home
| coming JOY of 1862 American troops
on the steamer Saxonia was dashed
this afternoon when the soldiers, ,clus-
tered, cheering, at the rail. saw the
naval tug Freehold sent to the bot
tom Of the Hudson river by a blow
from the SaX0nia's propeller. as she
was working TO warp tile big liner
into her pier.
A muster Of the Freehold's crew
tonight showed three men missing
Rescued members OF the crew said
that they saw Larry Lanahan chief
machinist's mate, sink after Il short
struggle. 1t was thought possible
that the other two men unaccounted
for had been picked up by small boats
and taken ashore
The sinking Of the tug was one of
the most dramatic marine accidents
that has ever occurred here. The
cheers which Il momen. before had
been cchoing back AMI forth from

great vessel came tie sound OF rcnd-

The Freehold was loss than three
minutes in sinking. According to
witnesses, it was shortly before 4 30
when the tug, pulling the vessels
stern around, received its death
blow.
Witnesses said that the comman-
der of the Saxonia evidently intend
ed to aid the tug by giving the larger
craft a kick ahead" The quick
rush ahead, however. sucked the tug

Of her masts remained above the sur

BUYING WISHES

"The man who buys only what he
needs, and when he needs it. would
neither sustain marked down sale
nor a marked up one. He would apply
the law of demand according to its ul-
innate power, and the level Of supply
and demand would sooner be reached.
1t follows that as long as people keep
on paying high prices, because they
think they must have better living con.
cause of a wish rather than a legiti-
mate want, prices will remain aEnor-
mally high. The consumer does
know at all times what he can make
do what he can and ought to pay for
a necessary article. and If he lives up
to the law Of economy and necessity.
he exercises the power OF demand upon
price to an appreciable extent and
helps to lower the cost of living. Pri-
marily goods are made TO use and not
to sell. And when a people will not
use them they will not sell: when they
will not sell they come down in price
or go out of existence. To use
canting phrase, much of our present
day trouble is due to the fact that
we want what we want when we want
it, The truth is we have cut loose
from our wartime moorngs in econo-
my. -" But the effects OF this great
war are not over If we resnme in hav-
ing everything we want. the other re.
sumption must wait. An ounce of econ.
omy is worth pound in price. Less
railing and mbre working. less spend
ing and more saving would go far to-.
ward reducing the high cost OF living -
