the naval officers Of Pago Pago form
the governing body Of Tutilla and the
FIVE other small islands. The yeomen

Office assistants. The Fita-Fitas are
the outside unit. Their duties are mu-

as policemen, and also as guards OF
honor for the governor on inspection

The fatigue uniform consists OF
sort of black kilt with bright red

Is of natures own. A leather belt, car
rying q dagger on the side, holds the
kilt, or lava-lava, in place. The dress

New England Needs Swine.


(Harry P. Hinckley, Treasurer Eastern Duroc.
Jersey Association)
Live stock must hold place Of in
creasing Importance on farms in New
England. Efforts to conserve farm re,
sources more completely should take
into account the immediate profits and
the constructive results of well-bal
snced live stock industry. Swine hus
bandry on some farms Ia neglected
industry. A correction of present
abuses and high appreciation of the
value of swine on most farms as source
of revenue are greatly to be desired al
this time.
Frequently useful residues and BY
products 60 to waste, which might, with
q little effort be converted into pork.
The possibilities of using these should
be carefully studied on every farm.
Obviously, the farmers cannot compete
with pork producers in the corn belt,
where both forage crops and concen-
trates are more abundant and cheaper,
but 1t is not for this purpose that an
aroused interest in swine production is
deemed advisable. There is much farm
waste that should be utilized, and 1t is
incumbent upon the farmers to market
some of it through swine. Corn is not
Indispensable to profitable pork produc-
tiOp.
A growing interest in swine husbandry
is traceable to two things: Higher prices
for swine and their products, and Q
realization that the keeping of limited
number Of pigs may tend to diversity
the farm business. While possibly not
every farm should have pigs, it Is hard
to conceive of well-balsnced farm with
out some pigs. Aside from any COM
mercial consideration, the renewed In
terest in the home curing of meats for
family use would point first to the pig
as source of supply. 1t Is appropriate,
therefore, to study closely the place OF
the pig in the farm management scheme.
Americans are the greatest meat eaters
in the world. So far as is economically
consistent, this demand should be sup.
piled with home products.
Since the hog is prolific animal ol
relatively short life, the numbers are
subject to rapid fuctuation In response
to market and other conditions. One.
half of the farms report no pigs what.
ever; the other half have an average OF
four pigs each. There are less than two
brood sows on 20 per cent of the farms,
and only 33 per cent have pigs other
than brood sows. In general the coun'
ties with the largest numbers Of dairy
COWS have the most swine.
A decline of about IS per cent In the
number of swine kept on farms has been
found during the past seven years. Ad'
vsncing prices for pork products, al
we'll as for supplementary concentrates,
during recent years, have encouraged
| liquidation. With the prospect of con
tinued high prices for supplies and pork
products, the need Of readjusting CON.
ditions of production in New England
becomes apparent. In this connection
the cooperative development of loca
marketing facilities should not be over
looked.

The Imp Of the
Arrows

Rodger Cameron placed the last
book in the packing box and nailed
on the cover. Then he sat and gazed
about the little room, which looked
bare indeed, stripped Of his few per-
sonal belongings. It occurred to him
just then to wonder exactly how many
hours Of study and serious thought he
had spent in that small block Of at
mosphere inclosed within four walls,
II feet square Of floor space and ditto
of ceiling.
In the midst Of his muslng some
perverse imp, whom Cameron, profess
sor Of psychology though he was, did
not recognize, delved down into the
depths of Rodgers orderly mind and
dragged into light some lines Of verse.
The young professors lips, entirely
ION their own," as 1t were, repeated
them aloud:
Even as a child who on the seashore
sits,
Taking unchallenged all each bright
wave brings,
So let me play awhile with life and

No young man who expects to farm

who have passed out of their school dayt
and are now confronted with life work
on the farm will find door open If they
will but seek the same. The shor
courses at the agricultural colleges are
designed primarily to give to farm youth
what their previous school training
lacked. We mention this fact now, that
plans may be made early, 30 that all
those who will, may profit at the first
opportunity.
There is still another channel open to
energetic young men. 1t is the reading
way. Farm books are available on prac-
tically every agricultural subject. Al

and if the books are studied, expertnest
is readily attained. The reading fsrme,
