HIGHEST Pn.cES FOR SWINE
Especially Advantageous to Southern
Farmer to Study Use OF Well
Balanced Fog Ration.

prepared by the United States Depart-
incnt Of Agricultural
lnforms zion secured rs the bureau
of markets, United States Department
of Agriculture indicates that southern
hogs VIII command prices as high as
those paid for hogs from the corn
belt If they are properly fed and
handled. Nearly coco hogs from
single owner in Mississippi have been
received AT the National stock yards,
Illinois, within the past few months
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 a mixed grain ration In connec-
tiOn with corn and tankage. All the
animals showed intensive feeding AMI
weighed $50 pounds or over when they
arrived at the market.
1t would be especially advantage
Gus TO the southern farmer to study
the use of the well-balanced grain ra-
tions and the Complementary adapta-

more recent Peterboro.
The Nez Perez canoes were made
OF either cedar or pine varying in
length from IL to 90 feet or more.
The Lewis and Clark canoes were
undoubtedly similarly fashioned,
but of the larger size. They were
made in the same manner, this was
! the easier way But for the first
time these Indians saw the advant-
age of the AK and adj, which en-
abled the whites to make their
canoes much quicker. Charlie Ad-
ans, previously mentioned, has an
ADJ which he said was given to his
grand father for the assistance he
gave the whites in helping to make
their canoes.

the Indians to see the good use II
could be put to in making canoes.
Lewis and Clark undoubtedly had
several of these tools with them.

we have nothing left except a little
dried fish, which operates as com

1t is quite evident from the con
dition the men are in, they are not
in shape to do much work. They
undoubtedly felled the trees and
shaped them with the tools they had,
but the Indians helped to burn out
the inside of the canoes. Here is
how the early Indian made his
canoe. To fall the tree he placed
chuncks endwise against the bottom
of the tree and built a fire at the
ends next the trees. frequently SHOW
ing the chunks up. which kept the
charring process going. Thus il
charred its way into the tree until
it fell. He burnt it In two at the
desired length. and shaped the ends
by fire, assisted by chizelling with
stone implement First he shaped
the outside of the canoe as he
wished 1t this way. Then he turned
the stick of timber over and a fire
was built on the top side and care
fully guarded against burning
where 1t might damage the top
into sides and bottom.
The ashes and charcoal were
often removed and the fire then re-
newed When the fire had charred
away all they thought best. 1t was
scraped and sized or measured TOR
the thickness OF sides and bottom.
The Indian depended .on his sense
of form largely for this, but he
could make a few crude measure
ments. The white man II he wished
to be exact, would bore small holes
over the bottom and lower sides,
and thus get any uniform thickness
he wished, then plug the holes
| against leakage. The Indian AFTER
doing all he could with fire, took
his stone chizel and split away the
bumps and thinned down the thick
: places. and if he cared to make a
neat job, he smoothed off the rough
work with gritty stones. Some
times he used native paints and out
lined some grotesque figure or I'M
age on the sides. Thus was he able
by primitive methods to make light
servicable and nifty canoes any
length or size he desired for the
streams he operated on.
Different tribes in different local
tiles of the Great Northwest had
their own distinctive style of canoes
Some Sound tribes, and most Brit
| ish Columbia coast tribes, inclndin e
few lower Alaska tribes used to-

very elaborate boats out of cedar
known as war canoes, later used a.

often forty and fifty feet long, with
a fanciful carved stick on prov and

as forty paolllers with cargo ana

It is a difficult task to always To-
cate the exact spot where Lewis and
Clark made their camps. Their
journal speaks of a glade, PLAIN,
flat, a creek, a ridge, an island
or low ground, or some other natur-
al object which can be easily iden-
titled, but it ebes not always men
ton the exact part on these natural
objects. One has to do much read
ing, run out many clues and use
ones knowledge of camp life to help
determine some places.
Locating the exact spot Of their
canoe camp has been the most per-
picking l have yet been confronted
with. The area is large and many
natural features have been changed
since their time. The Nez Perces

as theirs are little confusing. /

quarter of a mile, but this is not

seeing some of the stumps in 1861
from which some of the canoes were
mach across from the mouth Of the
North Fork river. He remarked,
These stumps should last 100 years
longer" but he said nothing Of the
spot where Lewis and Clark camp d.

place where they made their cache
on the bank Of the river straight
across from the junction IF the two
Clearwater rivers. The excavation
for the cache is still visible and tai
lies with what the journals say
The cache is on what is now the

they acquired as a sawmill site.
There are the remains of a stumI

was girl. Lewis and Clark un-
doubtedly had to look over consid-
cradle territory in order to secure
the size fand shape of the timber
necessary to build the five large
canoes they made, and they spoiled
one or two in the making.
The Nez Perces then living in
this vicinity undoubtedly helped to
make these canoes. Their decend-
ants tell me so, and under the cir
cumstances and the condition the
whites were in, believe it, The
canoes were made after the Indian
fashion and manner, but the Lewis

the help of the Indians. Here is what
