How to get the greatest gain at the
lowest cost is always an important
question. This can be done by feed
ing balanced ration. The stock
judging class at the State Teachers
College, Cape Girardeau, found that a
ration consisting of ten parts of corn
and one part of tankage makes a bal
anced ration and yields good results.
When corn alone was fed, hogs gained
only 30 pounds day; when they We're
fed ten parts Of corn and one part of
tankage they gained 1.34 pounds day.
1t costs $12.96 to produce hundred
pounds of pork if corn alone is fed, at
the current price--80c a bushel. It
costs 1888 to produce a hundred
pounds of pork if corn, at the present
price, and tankage are fed in the pro-
portion mentioned above, the cost of
tankage being $4,000 a ton.
Corn alone is not good food be-
cause it lacks in protein. Its nutri-
tive ratio is 1:10.4. When corn is sup
plemented with tankage, which has a
nutritive value of 1906 or sskim which
has nutritive ratio of 1877 the ra-
ton is balanced and better results are
secured.

FEEDING HOGS.

This is hog feeding time and one of
the classes in agriculture at the South
east Missouri State College is study
ing the problem. Farmers want to
know how they can produce the Most
pounds of pork at the lowest cost, and
when to sell their hogs so as to make
the most money. The last problem is
difficult to answer. Since hogs are
now selling for $11.50 to $3.50 per
hundred and corn brings only SOC bu-
shell it is generally believed that hogs
can now be fed with a safe margin of
profit. This condition is likely to con-
tinue for several weeks. Conclusion:
hog down the corn, threby save five to
eight cents bushel in harvesting it,
and finish the hog by putting on few
more pounds than would ordinarily be
done.

Complain Koreans
 Put to Torture

Seoul, Korea, June 26.--Complaints that the police in Korea sometimes go to such Nan extreme as to put the Koreans to torture" have reached the governor-general of Korea and Director Akaike, of the police bureau, has issued an order to the provincial governors to put stop to it. The director announced that it was with great regrets that he heard, now and then, criticism that "even of late, policemen often fail to behave pro- perly toward the people,
 Referring to the reports that the Koreans had been tortured, he told the governors that "it is said the people are apt to think the police idea of the one being inevitably as- sociated with that of the other." He pointed out that even if torture were practiced only in few cases it naturally discredited the whole system of the police. He added:
 "As you know very we'll, in modern courts, judges rely on evidence rathor than on the confession of offenders, and therefore torture has no place in our police system. trust that in acting against any offenders you will do your best to collect evidence. but never attempt to extort confession from them by the brutal means of torture."
