Rows, and Girls, Club

County Agent j. 8. Quist reports that
he has already received letters from
boys and girls over the county who are
anxious to make application for the
purebred pig club.
This will no doubt be the largest club
ever attempted in the county. 1t de.
serves the interest and support it is re.
ceiving. By joining a purebred pig
club, any industrious boy or girl can
get started in the purebred hog bust
ness OF course the parents must give
their consent to the children who go
into the contest They should be anx-
ious for their children to get started in
club work. The purebred pig club not
only interests the boys and girls in the
farms, but it gets them started in a
profitable phase of the farming game.
Aside from the financial gain to the
club members, the contestants learn
how to read pedigrees. They become
acquainted with the leading strains of
the, various breeds, and 1t teaches bet
ter care for livestock. The showing Of
the hogs at the end Of the contest edu-
Gates the future livestock showmen to

The petition is presented by Soil
citor General King and Judge {. b.
Ames, assistant to the attorney gen.

The petition asserts the opinion of
the Supreme Court fails to discuss
the question that the corporation
itself is a combination in restraint
of trade, and does not decide this
question. The opinion holds merely,
says the petition that the corpora
ton did not achieve a monopoly. The
petition asserts "the opinion con-
cedes that a crime was committed by
the operators of the steel corpora
tion."
