Change Sows and Pigs to Green
Feed Gradually.

A reader has a field of "velvet
beans ready to put hogs on. Will 1t
injure three sows and their 22 pigs
two weeks old, to turn them on these
velvet beans"
1t will not injure the sows and pigs
to turn them on these velvet beans,
but certain conditions should be con-
sidered in changing the feed of
breed sows sucking pigs.
In the first place, it is not good
practice to turn brood sow and
young pigs on green feed, if she has
not been accustomed to it, and allow
her to eat all she wants. The change
should be made gradually from dry
to green feed, or the milk flow may
be SO stimulated as to cause the
Young pigs to suffer from scours:
When the pigs are older they will
take all the milk the mother can
produce, but when young they may
not be able to do so:
Young pigs turned into luxuriant
green growth, especially during wet
weather. sometimes suffer from an
irritation of the skin. We think it
would be a good plan to grease the
pigs before turning them into green
growth, especially in damp weather:
It is also doubtful if it is the most
economical to force these brood sows
and pigs to get all their feed from
the velvet beans. A very small daily
| feed of corn or some other such dry
| feed will probably pay.-Progressive

What's in a Name
ABIGAIL
(Copyright)

Quaint and simple and old-fashioned
as Abigail Is considered in this coun-
try, the name has an interesting
history in England. 1t signifies
father of joy" and was used by the
Eastern nations to represent the abb
stract Of joyfulness. The Biblical
Abigail, in her courtesy to David, so
recommended herself to early readers
OF the Holy Book that her name ap-
peared frequently in church registers.
In the reign of Queen Anne, Abigail
Masham exerted such back-stair in
f1uence upon the worthy sovereign,
that the name became a sobriquet for
lady's maid. Other etymologists, ex-
plain, however that it owes it's reputa-
ton for belonging to a waiting-woman
to Beaumont's comedy The Scornful
Ladde' played in 1916, where the wait
ing gentle-woman was called Abigail
In play of Killigrew's, some thirty
years later, the term Abigail was used
for a maid servant and it's sudden
failure was attributed to it's reference
to the influence of the famous Abigail
Masham. After that time, the name
was considered a cant term for lady's
maid but with the coming of the
Puritans to America, 1t sprang again
into favor among the higher classes
and Is today much used in old-fashion-

I am tempted to. I really think that
he is fit for death. I have called up
his wife and told her of his conduct

to make her angry at me. She told
me to go ahead and kill him, but to
kill both. l don't know what to think

Day of Rest. Should Benefit Baron Squad

Yesterdays postponement might work out for the best after all. The Barons have been going steadily for eighteen or twenty days, playing every game sched- uled. Moreover, they have been hitting a mighty fast pace. losing but three out of the last fourteen games played. The day of rest afforded. breathing spell, the dizzy pace.
 The rush of the Barons has had few equals in the Southern League. Atlanta last year started a winning streak that ultimately landed the pennant for the Windy City. Birmingham rally be- gins to look like a duplication of the 'eat of the Crackers in 1919.
 When statements are boiled down to facts it really does look like the Barons stand a-first-class chance to beat the field to the bunting this season. Every department of the team is working in fine fashion now.
 The infield could not be much better There is batting strength to be found n this bunch of infielders, Bernsen, Stewart, Croll and Stevenson. Steven sons batting rally of the past week or SO is slowly but surely bringing him to he top of the lists.
 Molesworth can lay claip to having about the best outfield in the league since the addition of Eddie Meeks. Ellis IS an ideal cleanup man. Griffith is a good one to draw walk or to place a neat base hit just out of the reach of the opposing players. Eddie Meeks has lived up to all expectations. He is lead- ing the list of Baron batters, making l3 hits out of 8 times at bat. His work in the field is great his ability to judge flies and the accuracy of his throwing arm making him one of the most valu- able men on the squad.
 JThe pitchers have settled down to mid season form, and are turning in win ast- CT win. Molesworth has six twirlers on his list, one of whom will have to go to conform with the player limit rule. Sig man, at present, is on the ineligible list.
 Barring accidents. the Barons should take two out of the three remaining games from Atlanta and come home and take the series from Chattanooga the end of this week.

The 1920 season is discounting the idea that brothers of famous ball play CTS are hoodooed in their efforts to make good in the big leagues.
 Since the far back days when the Delehanty brothers made history, the brothers of many truly greats on the diamond have attempted to establish their places, too. But one after an other they failed.
 Paul Cobb, brother of the mighty Tyrus. was a conspicuous example. The Kid. benefited by the teaching and the coaching of the Southern Typhoon, made a fair showing as high up as the Western League. But he got no farther. Christy Mathewson's sponsorship got his brotherS Hank Mathewson, job in the majors, but Hank couldn't hold it. And the same thing was true concern ing Ira Plank, brother of Gettysburg Eddie"
 Through the office of his famous brother, Joe Evers got a try-out with the Giants. John McGraw gave the kid every chance to make good, but he wasn't a ball player. Hans Wagners brother Al, tried to land major league job but also failed.
