When to Wean Pigs

At the conference of swine ex-
tension workers of United States
Department Of Agriculture, held
recently in Washington, the
question of weaving pigs arose.
The discussion brought out the
fact that in some parts of the
country farmers followed the
practice Of weaving their pigs
at most all ages from five weeks
up. The conclusions reached were
that for best results pigs should
be allowed to nurse the SOW for
at least 10 weeks where 1t is
possible to do so. 1t was decided
that it would be still better ia
allow the pigs to wean them
selves. "A good sucking sow pro-
perly fed should be in q good
flow Of milk up to the time the
pigs are at least 10 weeks oi
age. Without question the mo-
tner's milk is the best feed pos.
|sible to obtain for young pigs
Consequently hog growers
should take advantage at this
natural feed to the greatest ex.
tent possible.

Young Laws was swinging a

The driver of the automobile,
unaware that his car had been
roped in wild and woody west

A woman saw the auto pass

She screamed and attracted the

INDIA HOARDS SILVER
FROM u. S.; PRICE HIGH

London.-India is responsible
for the present high price Of
silver, according to British bul.
lion experts. The habit of the In
dian people of boarding silver
coins gives little prospect of am
elioration of conditions in the sill
yer market. To meet the short
age caused by Indian hoarders
$4,000, 900 u. S. A. silver dol
lars were melted down for con-
version into Indian rupees.
"India has been the sink Il
the world for precious metals fos
generation declared one of the
directors of Samuel Montagu &
Company, leading British dealer
in silver, ''When gold supplies
were cut off during the war, and
importations of silver restricted
to currency requirements, the
native mind was impressed with
the idea that silver was likely
to become exceedingly precious.
Accordingly the natives be-
gan to hoard their silver rupees
The effect of that policy among a
population of 800 millions, accus-
toned to regard silver as the
staff of their economic life, cre-
ated a heavy demand for the me-
tai. The demand was further in
tensified by the almost simulta-
neous opening of campaigns in
Mesopotamia and East Africa,
which meant the manufacturoin
India of large quantities of
munitions, and an increase in
the quantity of silver in cur
rency to meet higher wages.
Troops had also to be supplied
with rupees in these theaters
and in Egypt.
"All available sources of sup
ply were drawn upon to meet the
demand, but soon all ordinary
stocks Of silver ran dry. The
United States government came
to the rescue by with drawing
$50 million silver dollars from
circulationsand issuing silver Ger
tificates, but the situation has
not been alleviated to any consi-
derable extent"

THE COST OF DIRIGIBLEs

New York Tribune: So elabo-
rate and expensive were the pre-
parations made at Mineola for
the anchoring and protecting of
the dirigible balloon R-34 that
even her safe arrival at her cho-
sen destination would not have
proven much more about the
present commercial practicaM-
/ lity of her kind of aerial navi-
|gation than her enforced demand
for succor from an old fashioned
slave of the oceans surface prov
ed as to the present certainty of
flight between points far apart.
A "ship" that cannot be moored
without the help of 500 men is
not very promising to financers
interested in the transportation
business as business. The little
army that assembled at Mineola
was reminder of the line Of
warships that stretched from
Newfoundland to the Azores.
Such things are possible only for
governments, and for govern
ments only when they do not
have to consider cost. The air
plane, now, is different, in every
respect far more like those best
of aerial navigators the birds,
and incidentally, it is an inven-
tion purely American, while the
dirigible for many a year will re-
call the zeppelin to the mind Of
every observer.

FIRST WHITE CHILD BORN
IN DEADWOOD VISITS CITY

The following is a dispatch to
the state papers from Deadwood
Among the present visitors to
Deadwood and other points in
the Black Hills are R. F. Robin
son and family, Of Philip, S. D.
The visit of Mr.. Robinson is of
more than ordinary interest, for
the reason that he was the first
white child born in Deadwood.
His father, John Robinson who
died some months ago at Philip
was a noted frontiersman of the
west.
In 1876, when Deadwood was
one of the widest mining camps
in the world, gold having been
discovered in DeadWood gulch
only a comparatively short time
before, there was a cluster of
frame houses and log cabins on
the ground now occupied by the
High and Central school build
ings. In one of those buildings,
on July A, 1876, R. F. Robinson
was born. Mr.. Robinson states
that on the day he was born,
his parents afterward informed
him, it was very cold in Dead
wood, with at least two inches of
snow on the ground. While in
Deadwood he met quite a num-
Der of his old friends with whom
he associated during his boyhood
days in DeadWOod.
