PROMINENT HOG RAISER SAYS
PRICES CHARGED ARE UN-
WARRANTED MAKES HIS
OWN HOG FOOD, WITH BETTER
RESULTS

"That he is through paying fancy
prices for stock foods and hog rem
edies and that he is raising some of
the best hogs placed on the market"
was the statement made recently by
f. II. Beckstead, well-known hog
raiser and authority on live stock.
Mr.. Beckstcad's hogs are the envy
of his neighbors, and have "topped the
market" for several years in Iowa.
He states that for years he bought
high-priced hog foods and hog rem
edies, but he is all through paying ex-
travagant prices for what he can
make for himself He states that
what the hogs need are minerals, and
tells the secret Of his wonderful sue
cess by explaining that he takes about
five pounds of ordinary mineralne
(Which is pure concentrated minerals
and cost only couple of dollars) and
mixes same with enough bran or fill
err to make a hundred pounds. All
hogs, and especially brood sows re-
quire minerals as they keep them free
from worms, and in the pink of con-
dition, and are essential to the hogs
growth and well balanced ration
This inexpensive mixture placed in a
sheltered box where the hogs can get
at it when they need it, will produce
far better results than any high
priced so-called stock foods.
Send two dollars to The Minneralint
Chemical Co., 1858 North Wells ST..
Chicago, ILL.,, and they will forward
you by prepaid parcel post, enough
4 mineraline to make full hundred
pounds. (Adv..

HAS A SOLID FOUNDATION

The best building conceivable if
built upon shaky foundation would
certainly be poor investment. That
is also true of an organization which
must be built from the ground up.
The foundation of the American
Farm Bureau Federation, which is
the parent organization of the Ne
braska Farm Bureau Federation and
the Webster County Farm Bureau, is
the millions of individual farmers
throughout the United States. The
Bureau starts directly in the home
and forms it's structor right up
through the precinct, county, state
and national organizations. In such
state organization there is unlimited
power. But the individual farmer
must remember that it is his individ.
ual membership that is first needed
in the foundation.

First in Alfalfa Tonnage

Nebraska now ranks first among all
states in the raising of alfalfa, having
displaced Kansas, the record holder for
many years
In Nebraska during 1920, the total
alfalfa acreage Was l,232,0i7 as COM
pared with 1881 $40 acres planted in
Kanses, according TO figures made pub
lis today 10y a. T. Anderson, OF the fed
eral bureau Of crop estimates Ne
bra,ba's production for the period was
1927 $50 } tous, while Kansas raised
3,3l0,4O6 tons, the bureaus figures
show.
The average yield per acre in Ne
brask a last year was SO tons while
Kansas produced II tons per acre.
The average yield per acre during the
flve-year period-l9l6 to l02O-was Ne
braska, 10 tons, Kansas, 2G5.
Kansas, always consistent raiser of
alfalfa, had led Nebraska since 1909,
when comparisons between the two
states were first compiled. The yearly
alfalfa acreage Of each state has shown
a steady increase since that time.

COUMBE And CADORE
KNOCK WINNING RUNS
CBy Associated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-Two major
league pitchers proved their hitting
ability yesterday by batting in Win
ming runs. Galore, of the Brooklyn
Nationals, won pitchers battle from
Morrison, of Pittsburgh, by knocking
in the only tally of the contest.
Coumbe, of the Cincinnati Nationals,
made up for the runs scored off him
by st. Louis, when his double and
single accounted for three Red runs,
the margin of victory. Three home
runs-two by Baker and one by Ruth
featured the New York American
victory over Chicago, which gave the
Yankees their first series against the
White Sox this season.
The ST. Louis Nationals also made
three homers-by McHenry. Fournier,
and Hornsby-in their success over
Cincinnati in the first game of a dou-
ble-header.
New York again went into first place
in the American League with a one
point margin over Cleveland, the lat
ter team losing to the Philadelphia
Athletics. The seventh inning was dis
astrous for Cleveland, four of their
errors coupled with seven hits produc-
ing seven Philadelphia runs.
Detroit finally won game from Bos-
ton after losing ten straight to the
Red Sox.

Chips and Slips

Speaking of home runs, what has be-
come OF the so-called lively or rabbit
ball that was getting so much atten-
ton only a month ago? Was it as
much myth as many persons, who
should know the real facts, insisted
or have the manufacturers hardened
to public criticism and made changes
In the ball so as to make it less lively?
AT any rate, the nome run is not so
frequent and low-score games no long
er attract attention. When the agita-
ton against the ball was at its heighth
manufacturers and league officials
were inclined to blame the long and
hard hitting on ineffective work by
the pitchers, rather than a lively ball
1t IS possible the pitchers have round
ed to better form, but in view OF so
many over-the-fence drives, and MANY
by players who never had shown any
marked skill in this respect. the be

Reds AID the Cardinals enabled the
Reds to get an even break in the two
games after the Reds had dropped the

1t was full afternoon of baseball
when Pfeffer split the plate with a
strike. the first ball pitched to Neale
at o'clock to open the first game and
it was just $50 when Bohne gathered
in Mann's fly for the final out in the
second contest. Both games moved
along slowly and were prolonged in
the first when Groh threw into right
field in the eighth inning in the first
contest that permitted the Cards to
tie the score and eventually TO win
the game.
Three home runs by the Cards also
helped to win the game for the home
team. Homers by McHenry and Four

BAN RUGBY FOOTBALL
IN WESTERN SCHOOLS

Rugby football, for many years the
leading sport in the San Francisco
high schools. is gradually dropping
out of prominence.
San Francisco public high schools
will be allowed to play American
football henceforth. it is announced
by Miss Signe Hagelthorne, physical
director of the board of education.
This decision, reached after a confer
ence between school authorities, put
an end to rugby football. which for Is
years had been the official game of
the San Francisco high schools.
Practice, Miss Hagelthrone added,
may be started as soon as the Students
have time to arrange the necessary de-
tails to make the switch of the games.
Rugby has been played in the San
Francisco high schools since 1906, fol-
lowing the example of Berkeley high
with California and Leland Stanford
universities. When the University of
California changed over to the other
game in 1915, in spite of an effort to
change, all the city schools refused
to give up the game of rugby.
Stanford's acceptance of the Amer
lean game in 1918 brought st. Ignatius
and Sacred Heart schools into the
field with the American game. Com
merce and Polytechnic for three years
have been more or less active in trying
to get the game of rugby out of their
schools only to have to take it up
again after having formed elevens
several times. The board of education
would not let the game of rugby be
dropped.
When Lick Wilmerding dropped
rugby last year owing to a similar
action on the part of the California
Interscholastic federation. Lowell and
Poly, the only schools playing rugby
in the city, joined with Cogswell and
three Oakland institutions in an inter
city rugby league.
While the rugby league was going
on, the San Francisco Athletic league
at the same time gave recognition to
! the American game by adding the
above named teams to its list and also
| forming a league.
After disastrous season the Cogs
we'll team last November adopted the
| American game. When Oakland of
ficials announced that the Trans-bay
! schools would not be permitted tC
play the American game, it was felt
| that Lowell and Poly the only schools
in the city playing rugby would be
forced to switch because of the lack
of competition.

Local followers of the trapshooting

Harter has proved his skill in the
various matches that he has appeared
in recently. His averages runs around
90, an exceptional figure. Recently he
broke SO birds out OF a possible 100
This is considered a remarkable feat
in view of the fact that there is only
one 100 shot in the United States.
In Chicago Harter will meet the
cream of the trap shooting gentry oil
the country, but his friends believe
that he will spring a surprise on some
of the crack shots.
Five hundred entries have been re
eeived for the tourney. A final entry
list of more than 700 is expected. The
handicap itself, the big event of the
week. is set for Friday, Aug. &c.
