William N. Peterson, psychology ex-
pert and head of Winnetkas police
department, has a new idea. He be-
lieves that the prisoner doesn't get the
proper atmosphere out of his cell.
Thus if he be incarcerated in a place
that has red roses on the wall and
carpet on the floor he is not likely
to be so acutely remorseful.
Some time ago the chief tried paint
ing the cells gray. 1t didn't work 1t
somehow conduced to levity
There he got his paint brush and
his paint and put in the day smearing
the cells deep and mournful black
Now he expects there will be true re-
pentance.

FEEDING THE PREGNANT SOW

1t is entirely too common practice
in the corn belt to feed brood sows
corn alone. l.. A. Weaver, of the
University of Missouri College of Ag-
riculture, gives several reasons why
this practice should not be followed.
Constipation must be guarded against,
if strong filters are to be produced.
A sow should also have some bulk in
her ration and some feed containing
more protein and mineral matter than
does corn. Corn, when fed alone, is
too fattening, and the fat is laid on
internally, which is injurious to the
development of the pigs in utero.
Corn is all right if fed with judgment.
In the corn belt it naturally makes up
a large part of our swine rations.
When fed to sows, however, corn
should be supplemented with some
feeds like linseed oil meal or tankage,
shorts, and little bran, since these
contain the protein and mineral mat
ter essential in developing strong
pigs. Another good feed to use is al
falfa hay or alfalfa meal. Clover or
cowpea hay, if not too coarse, also
supplies bulk and protein, and has the
laxitive effect desired. A good ration
may be made up of corn so per cent,
shorts rs per cent, bran Is per cent,
and linseed oil meal 10 per cent, by
weight.

diers are not home the obligations of
the government incurred in the war
are not paid. just as the average man
believes he must pay his personal
debts, the average American believes
his country should pay it's debts,
which are, as he knows full well, his
debts, or the debts Of future Ameri-
cans. The American conscience can
be appealed to in enforcing this view,
and the American conscience will re-
spond.
Self-interest, patriotism, pride and
conscience surely will not make bad
substitutes for excitement over the
war when the bonds are offered for
sale, and it will be true now, as it was
when the other loans were offered,
that an obligation of the United
States Government is the best secur-
ity in the world. Moreover, the short
term obligations of the next loan
will be somewhat more desirable Sc
curities than the longer-term bonds
are.
