Epworth League Institute
In Dover This Week

The third anual Epworth League
Institute of the Wilmington M. E.
conference is being held at Wes-
ley Collegiate Institute, Dover,
this week.
Delegates are present from the
entire conference territory and
many from outside of it's limits.
The institute is run on the plan
of the Great Silver Bay and North
field Conferences. The best talent
of the Methodist Episcopal Church
are members of the faculty. The
recreations for the week will be
under the guidance Of the best
recreational directors. While the
morning will be spent in study OF
the different phrases of the work
of the church, the afternoons will
be spent in rest, recreations and
hikes-and the prominent annual
feature is a straw ride to Barratt's
Chapel, a mecca for Methodists
throughout the country. The re-
cent General Conference took note
of these institutes throughout the
United States, and through the
bishops address urged their sup
port by all pastors and district
superintendents.

Origin of the Classical
Phrase, Got His Goat

There are lots of highly edu-
Gated people with college degrees
who do not know the origin of the
classic expression, "Got His Goat"
This fine literary phrase, so far
reaching in it's psychic import,
originated in East Aurora.
1t was first used by Ali Baba.
In the stable of Ed. Geers was
a very fast horse known as Prince
Regent. This horse was of a very
nervous disposition, and when in a
box stall by himself-especially in
a strange place-fretted and suf-
fered from inconsistencies. Ed.
Geers bought goat from Ali Bahia
and put it in the stall with the
horse, and the horse and the goat
became very chummy. When they
would take the horse out to trot on
the track he would seemingly look
forward to the moment when he
could get back and relate his ex-
periences to the sympathic goat.
There came day when this
horse was to trot for the Futurity
Stakes in Buffalo. All went we'll
and it looked as if Prince Regent
had a sure thing. The bets were
all in favor of Prince Regent.
But at midnight on the day be-
fore the race, some one got in the
barn and stole the goat, and the
horse so pined for his mate that
he seemed to lose heart, and by the
afternoon when the time came for
the horses to be called, Prince Re-
gent lost his nerve.
whats the matter with that
horse?" somebody said, as they
noticed the animals dropping ears.
"Why, somebody has got his
goat" said Ali Baba.
And so the phrase has gone
Gathering down the centuries, like
a tin kettle to dogs tail. It has
been fixed in the current coin of
speech.
eve have got his goat" That
means the man is done for and
out Of the game.

"AHOME COMING'

Perhaps the most impressive
and significant picture in the art
gallery in the Chicago Exposition
of 1893 was a small painting en-
titled Breaking Home Ties
Crowds moved to tears by tender
memories, stood for hours before
it. 1t touched the heart strings,
and typified the moving force of
America-home.
When John Howard Payne in a
far off land, wrote of Home Sweet
Home" he touched the one mighty
chord that swells into the chorus
of the Union.
When Senator Warren G. Hard
ing stood before his friends and
neighbors in his own home town,
when he permitted his memory to
picture the scenes of long ago,
when his heart was touched by
the kindly and wholesome greet
ings at home, he typifed all that
is best and all that is hopeful in
America.
Senator Harding's home coming
is the first real sign of the Ma
tons home coming. In simple
words, in toching language, the
leader of the Republican party
tells his own home folks that "gov-
ernment is not of supermen but Of
normal men, very much like you
and me-"
The Senator's simple and telling
words told the story of patriotism,
when he said of Marion: "We all
played the game together, because
it was our game. = \ \ 1t is a waste
of Gods rich endowments to assail
and destroy when all the flowers Of
life bloom best in the soil of SYM
pathy and encouragement"
This is the spirit of optimistic
loyalty to country, to America. 1t
is a superb definition of patri-
otism. 1t is the key to Senator
Harding's life, now opened before
the American people. IS 1t not an
inspiration?
Pointing to his own home town
and it's wonderful growth, the
Senator said: "No superman did
it, no one man did it. Now make
the application. This wonderful
land of ours is but the aggregra-
tion of communities y and the
necessary harmony of purpose
must lie in council, in the wisdom
of plural leadership, not in the
glory Of supermen."
Here is our guide for future
activity as a nation. Here is the
beacon leading to a safe harbor
Here is the great lesson Of the
home coming of Senator Harding
It breathes the spirit of union, il
tells the story of America, il
signifies the home coming of mis-.
led and misguided Republic

MIDSUMMER DAYS.

With a ripple of leaves and tinkle
of streams
The full world rolls in a rhythm of
praise,
And the winds are one with the
clouds and beams
Midsummer days! Midsummer
days!
The dusk grows vast; in a purple
haze,
While the West from a rapture of
sunset rights,
Faint stars their exquisite lamps
upraise-
Midsummer nights! o midsummer
nights!
The woods green heart is a nest
of dreams,
The lush grass thicKens and
springs and sways,
The rathe wheat rustles, the land
scape CLEANS
Midsummer days! Midsummer
days!

Build for yourself a strong box,

Build for yourself a strong box,
Fashion each part with care;
Fit it with hasp and paddock,
Put all your troubles there.
Hide therein all your failures,
And each bitter cup of quaff;
Lock all your heartaches within it,
Then sit on the lid and laugh.
Tell no one of its contents,
Never it's secrets share;
Drop in your cares and your
worries,
Keep them forever there.
Hide them from sight so COM

The world will never dream half;

Then sit on the lid and laugh.

PASTURE FOR HOGS
HELD TO BE ESSENTIAL
Expert Tells Four Reasons
Why and Advises AS
To Crops

The following timely article was
prepared recently for boys and
girls clubs by Thomas A. Baker,
head of the Department of Animal
Husbandry at Delaware College,
in cooperation with the Club de-
partment. 1t contains much in
formation which may be used with
profit by adult pig raisers as well.
Value of Pasture for Hogs
Pasture has come to be regard
ed as essential by the majority of
swine growers in this country. 1t
has almost become a necessity for
profitable pork production and
without it many farmers would be
forced out of the hog raising bust
ness. These are a>few Of the many
advantages Of pasture:
l. Hogs on pasture are more
healthy. They get plenty of much
needed exercise in foraging for
their food; their digestion is more
vigorous and they use their food
to better advantage. Furthermore,
pastured hogs are comparatively
free from the diseases and para
sites which cause so many losses.
2. There is less labor in caring
for hogs on pasture. The time
spent in feeding and cleaning the
pens is reduced. Running water
can often be provided.
3 The fertility of the land is
increased.
a The pasturage eaten by the
hogs reduces the amount Of grain
necessary and the result is more
profit" This is the greatest ad-
vantage of all.
Newark post., 1920-07-14
Temporary Pastures

Rape is the most satisfactory of
the temporary pasture crops. 1t
grows quickly on all types Of soil
and makes a rank growth. 1t
should be sown as early in the
spring as possible and should be
ready for feeding about July 1st.
It may be sown broadcast, in
drills, or in rows far enough apart
to cultivate between. The latter
method is preferable as a greater
growth is secured and the pigs do
not trample the plants to any ex-
tent. When pastured down to four
or five leaves per plant it should
be allowed to recuperate. Where
two fields Of rape are planted and
the hogs changed back and forth
continuous pasturage may be pro-
vided during the summer and fall.
Rape is almost as high in its con-
tents of protein as alfalfa. This
is a point that is often not con-
sidered. Draft Essex is the best
variety for pasture.
Rye and wheat when sown in the
fall make good pasture for the
early spring. These crops are
only available for about a month,
however, and can only be used in
combination with other crops.
Oats have never proven very

Permanent Pastures

we nnQ tnree pasture crops
which are generally adaptable to
Delaware conditions: alfalfa, red
clover and mixed grasses.
Alfalfa is universally acknoWl-
edged to be the best and cheapest
pasture crop. 1t comes early and
stays late, repeating year after
year. A properly managed field
of alfalfa will furnish pasturage
continually throughout the grow
ing season. Alfalfa has high
protein content and many success
full hog raisers feed on high pro-
tein concentrate, such as tankage,
to their fattening stock when this
pasture is available. The claim
has been made that hogs can be
successfully grown on alfalfa
without grain. This, however, is
a mistake as no pasture crop will
make satisfactory gains without
some grain. Care should be taken
that alfalfa is not too closely
grazed as the crowns will be in
jured and the next years stand
may be ruined.
Red clover does not equal al
falfa as a pasture, but neverthe-
less it is a most excellent crop and
is adaptable to many soils where
alfalfa will not grow. A clover
pasture may be obtained more
quickly as it takes a year to get
alfalfa established.
Mixed grasses are source Of
forage found on all farms and are
we'll suited to hogs. Blue grass,
orchard grass, timothy and red top
are the most important and they
will be found growing in various
combinations, depending on the
soil type. One great advantage of
mixed grasses is that they are
available very early in the spring.
The disadvantage of this crop is
that the growth is checked during
the hot summer months and some
other crop must be provided. A
satisfactory system is to use mixed
grasses for spring and fall pasture
and to have some annual crop such
as rape planted for summer feed
