Illinois, within the past few months and all were firm, finished porkers, which sold well in line with the best that came from other sections of the country. A representative of the Bu- reau of Markets made some inquiries into the manner in which these hogs were fed. He discovered that the same owner has feeding pens in Iowa as well as in Mississippi, and that he bought his young pigs and fed them q mixed grain ration in connection with corn and tankage All the animals showed intensive feeding and weighed 250 pounds or over when they arrived at the market.
 It would be especially advantageous to the southern farmer to study the use of we'll balanced grain rations and the complementary adaptation of pea nuts and velvet beans, which can be grown so abundantiy in that section
 Twelve carloads of hogs were re- ceived from single Tennessee owner at the same stockyards. These ami mals were of distinctive southern type, says the Bureau of Markets rep resentative, but they were we'll finish ed on corn, and sold readily at the top of the market, despite the fact that they came from the so-called doubtful territory" The owner re- ceived a check for $72,417, the largest ever paid to a patron of that market for a single shipment.

UNKNOWN OLD POEM BROUGHT
 TO LIGHT

A new and interesting unpublished poem of the pre-Revoiutionary times in America has just been brought to light and published by Dr. G. F. Has tings, of the Department of English at the University of Arkansas. The poem, entitled "The Cock Fighter, is by Francis Hopkinson, a friend of Washington, Jefferson and Franklin, and was discovered by pr. Hastings in manuscript form in Philadelphia.
 That Hopkinson is the real invent or of the American flag, is the opin- ion of Doctor Hastings, who has made an intensive study of the mans life and work. He was an intense patrie+ as is shown also in the present poem, which is directed against man who later was deprived of his property for Loyalist activities at the time of the Revolution.

production has been largely dissipat- ed. Good mares have been permitted to go empty so long that they are now barren. Others have been sold for agricultural work and are thus removed from fields of future horse production Stallions have been so little patronized for the last four years that thousands of them have been found castrated, and there is to- day the greatest shortage of good sires suitable for begetting high class work animals that we have ever known in this country.
 The trouble seems to be that every farmer wants to "let George do it.

THE PARADE
Was She Right?

Our attention recently was called to an incident supposed to have occurred during the World War.
 A Canadian bride of fortnight tear fully consented to the enlisting of her husband. While the war still ragged and the husband fought for his king, country and home, baby came to bless the young wife. Of course she loved it, just as our American mothers love and weep over their little ones. But all the time this girl in fancy heard the pitiful walls of the orphaned children in butchered Belgium; she heard the call. At last she prayed to the God above for guidance in making

Cotton Holding Movement Attract
 Much Attention

Bremen, Dec. 12.-Rumors received here that the American government may assist the cotton growers in the United States to hold their crops and that the growers will limit their ac reage next year are attracting much attention among Bremen cotton mer chants.
 A representative of the merchants told the Associated Press today that the output of German cotton mills now was about 50 per cent normal but was greatly hampered by the fuel shortage.
 The greatest activity in the cotton industry is in south Germany, where water power is available Mill own CTS have pooled their interests and are operating a limited number of mills on full time, rather than allow them on part time The merchants say the mills have bought all the cot ton needed for spring and most of the supply necessary to cover their summer needs. Consequently there are only a few emergency sales.
 There is general complaint among the merchants about the failure of Americans to deliver cotton promptly because of steamer delays, which are said to be due to the limited oil sup ply and poors steamers.
 As the Bremen exchange forbids dealing in futures and requires spot deliveries, merchants have been great ly inconvenienced by the failure of cotton to arrive at the time promised. They frequently must buy to supply orders with loss in exchange, and | find themselves overstocked when the cargoes finally arrive.

 There is no more vital nor more fundamental problem before American farmers today than a continued abundant supply of cheap motive pow CT on the farm. Without it, produc- ton costs will rise, and acre yields re- duce because of the lack of manure horses employed on farms have fur nished. Unless the farmers of this country protect their own interests by making arrangements for the produc- ton of their own power on their own farms by breeding good horses and mules for which they are raising their own fuel at cost, the two factors, com bihed with falling prices for farm products. inevitable whenever the rest of the world gets down to nor maj production of farm crops, will certainly reduce the returns from farm operations with consequent reduction in land values.
 The farsighted farmer is already arranging to produce his own power. -Beebe Veterinary Times. (Saint Paul, Minn)

TESTS 29,63s SEED SAMPLES

During the year ending June 30, 1920, the United States Department of Agriculture tested 29,638 samples of seeds for farmers preliminary to planting. Of these, 16,442 were test ed in Washington and 13,196 at the five branches. Under the seed impor- tation act 69,0OO,00O pounds of seed were permitted entry during the fiscal year, which was more than the total for the previous three years. Nearly 5,000,000 pounds were held at port, more than half of which was reclaimed and the balance ordered destroyed or exported. Red clover and alfalfa, crimson clover, rape seed, and alsike were among the leading seeds import ed.

CLOSE OF SEASON GOOD TIME
 TO MAKE FARM INVENTORY

With another season of farm work fast drawing to close, the United States Department of Agriculture is urging that an annual property list or inventory be made by every farm CT. It is the only means, department specialists say, whereby farmers may know accurately their net financial worth, what progress they are making from year to year, and how their in vestment in farm property is being distributed Property lists, or inven- tories, made in accordance with plan outlined in the Office of Farm Manage ment, United States Department of Agriculture, are not difficult to make and are of great value to any farmer who is striving to better his conditions overcome obstacles to success, and place his business affairs on secure foundation. To drift along year after year, not knowing whether toward success or failure, is not the practice of business men. Specialists of the department are prepared to give com pIete directions for making farm in- ventory that will put the farm on a business basis.

The public is obviously waiting
for a return Of fair prices before
making needed purchases Of every
kind But the question now IS
What are fair prices? Merchants
and manufacturers are frequently
non-plussed and the insistent clamor
for price reductions merely adds 10
their perplexity.
Pre-war prices are not fair prices
fair 20 the producer and distribu-
tor-for the present at least. World
initiation Of credit and currency and
the world shortage of goods, as, well
as transportation and construction,
do not permit an immediate return
to a pre-War basis. Many persons
believe that not for many years, II
ever, will prices reach "A pre-war
basis Nor Is the relation Of prices
10 cost of production" a test OF
fairness. AS prices fall, cost OF
production falls. emitting for the
present the item Of labor, which by
the way is considerably more than
an item. The public may be en-
titled TO prices in a majority of lines
which recover for the seller less
than cost of production. Cost of
production did not check the rise OF
prices during and after the war and
both merchants and manufacturers
often sold goods at a proC4gious
profit.
The fact is now that prevailing
conceptions of fair prices change al
most from day to day The price
which the consumer yesteI day
thought was fair, by comparison
with prices current, he may tOmOr-
row judge eXorbitant in view of
sharper price declines in other mar
ketS or closer TO the idealiZed
prices OF 1914. New standards rap
idly displace old ones.
Before business can resume on a
large scale, the public and the mer-
chants must form some working
agreement as to what constitutes a
fair price.

FAIL TO FIND
 MAN LOST IN
 MINE ACCIDENT

A premature blast on Sacramento Hill late yesterday afternoon caused the probable death of Juan Medrano, Ia Mexican, who is thought to be bu- ried under the earth that slid down the bench, and badly fractured arm 70 Bert Clement. Although steam shovel and a big crew of men were kept at work until after nine o'clock last night and most of the earth had been removed at that time, no trace Of the missing man was found.
 There is little chance that Medrano can be alive, although some thought he might have been caught in one of the crevices of the mountain which were filled up with the sliding earth. There is a possibility that he might have wandered off in a daZed condi- tion, but he had not returned home up to a late hour last night.
 Clement and the Mexican were loading a hole near the top bench when the explosion occurred. The cause of the explosion has not been determined. Both men, it is thought, were caught in the sliding earth, but Clement was fortunate enough not to be buried.
 A steam shovel and crew of men were put to work at once in an ef- fort to uncover the supposedly buried man. The shovel worked from the bottom up and removed all the earth that had slid down the hill but the Mexican was not found. He is prob ably buried in a large crevice that was filled up with the earth. If the body is not found during the night operations will be resumed this morn ing until it is.
 At the Copper Queen hospital last it was said that Clement would re- cover. Besides the fractured arm he has some superficial scratches.
 Judge J. L. Winters, with coro- nor's jury, was present during the operations undertaken to find the bu- ried Mexican. He said last night that he thought there is little hope that he can be alive.
 Clement is the owner of the Ozark rooming house in Brewery Gulch.
