when the pig reaches 100 pounds
in weight, about one pound of protein
to Ave pounds of carbohydrates ID
correct.
"At $50 pounds it should be in
creased; for each pound Of protein si1
pounds Of carbohydrates.
1.-THE fairly well-grown hog, 24O to
300 pounds, in fattening will do well
on one pound Of protein to eight
pounds Of carbohydrates"
After listing the various feeds and
combinations of feeds used in exten.
sion hog feeding tests at Iowa Agri.
cultural college, Professor Evvard
says: each buttermilk hog drank 80
pounds Of buttermilk, ate less than
half as much of the 81 corn, only one.
third as much Of the 500 tankage, only
two-thirds as much of the $55 mid
dlings, and actually reached weight
of 296 pounds some 81 days before the
hog without buttermilk did"
SO it would seem that buttermilk Is
one of the best hog feeds. Where it
is not freshly available 1t may be had
in a dried powder form. There are
ten pounds Of solids in every hundred
pounds of liquid buttermilk. The rest
is water.

1.-THE schools OF Richmond, Ind.
where Ralph C. Sloane is supervisor
Of music. are doing a work which can
not fail to make surrounding towns
fall in line sooner or later" D. A.
Clippenger, well known vocal. teacher
of Chicago, writes in an article on
orchestra music in the school. which
appeared in the February number OF
the Music Monitor"
The article explained that the school
board in Richmond furnishes many
instruments and keeps them in repair
and that the instruments are loaned
to the pupils Of whom there are over
fifty In the high school and Garfield
orchestras. Mr.. Clippenger praised
the credit system also. laying stress
upon the fact that one-fourth of the
credits required for graduation may
be obtained in music, thus giving the
pupils an opportunity to major him
self in music as in history or math-
matics.
The high grade of music played by
the orchestra in concert work was
spoken of by the writer, and the work
of Will Earhart, former supervisor Of
music here, now in Pittsburg, was
spoken of as the foundation of the
phesent system, which he refers to
several times as excellent.

GERMAN Plea Of
BANKRUPTCY TO
Be D|SRECARDED
Allies Should Begin at Once
to Fix lndemnities, De-
clares Commissioner.


PARIS, Feb. Germany is making
utmost efforts to have the allies be-
lieve she is nearing bankruptcy, de-
clared Raoul Peret. chairman Of the
budget commission of the chamber of
deputies and former minister of JUS
tice. In discussing today the financial
problems facing the peace conference.
The first measures of the conference
along financial lines. he said. should
be to take measures to prevent Ger
many declaring herself to be an in
solvent debtor or bankrupt state.
Then" Peret continued. I'VE should
Immediately fix the amount Of our &C.
count against Germany. which she
must be made to pay to the full limit
Of her financial ability without con-
sideration for her feelings. It will be
time enough then to decide about the
method Of payment. She may pay
either in capital Immediately or In
yearly installments.
Guaranteed by Tarlffs.
II do not believe that Germany at
the present time is in q position to
pay large amount in cash. We must
not demand from her too heavy pay
ment now, so as not to place her in a
position where she might argue that
we are strangling her and killing the
goose that is to lay the golden eggs.
whether the installments we shall
demand from Germany be twenty bill
lion. thirty billion or fifty billion
francks yearly depends entirely upon
our decision, after an investigation,
as to what amount Germany will be
able to pay. These payments would
be guaranteed by customs tariffs de-
cided upon at the conference. reserv-
ing for ourselves the right praise
such tariffs should Germany fail to
meet her obligations"
