may be possible to recognize the fault
in blood lines or type. But when fail
ure to mate occurs frequently and
when the type is right, the indications
are that the system of management is
fundamentally wrong.
Upon the appearance of this condi-
ton an effort should be made to cor
of the diet and an abundance of exer-
else. The ration must have the fat
producing feeds largely reduced and
protein feeds plentifully supplied.
Pastures should be provided where pos
sible, but when these are not avail
able then the ration should consist of
alfalfa meal, alfalfa, soybean or clover
hay to supply protein and vitamines
high-grade tankage, fish meal, finseed
meal, or a good grade of white mid
dlings and whole oats-with but small
amounts of corn or ground barley, to-
gether with good mineral mixture.
In addition an abundance of daily ex-
ercise must be given. This will prob
ably have to be forced by driving the
boar or SOW about the paddocks or
pastures daily until the animal is
tired.
BY maintaining the digestive func-
tons in a proper manner, by causing
abundant exercise and by supplying
proper nourishment, there will be
brought about proper elimination of
the body wastes and rebuilding Of
the tissues. This should cause the
reproductive organs to function prop
erly and bring about a toning up Of
the system in such manner that breed
Ing operations will be successfully con-
Quoted.
Swine breeders must be alert to the
necessity for ruggedness in herd boars
In addition TO other qualifications
Breeders must refrain also from too
great a degree of fineness and smooth
ness in the selection of their breeding
animals, or loss of breeding power will
ultimately develop In their herds.

TO DELAY ACTION
Lower House Makes No De-
cision Regarding Court Divorce
Sidetrack Measure Until Martin
Returns Here.
SLIGHT CHANGE IN ONE WORD
"May" Substituted for "Shall"
in Court Bill.
Observers Waiting for Return
of Reno Member.

When the conference report on the
Industrial court bill came back to the
house late Monday afternoon, there
wasn't heard the three cheers which
the Administered ton may have expect
ed. Instead the house rather coolly
listened to the agreed changes and
languidly voted to wait until Frank l..
Martin returned from Hutchinson to
state his opinion.
Decision Is Sidctraezed.
The conference committee didn't
displease the state administration
very much-when it distributed ideas
as to just how the new law should
read. House members who had stood
with Martin in his fight were immedi-
ately convinced they hadn't won a vi
tai victory in the conference changes
in the bill. They promptly side
tracked decision until there is a
chance to open up for real fireworks
probably today.
In the conference agreement there
is just a slight change in word. The
word may was substituted for
"shalr' in the provision which says
the industrial court shall call the pub
lie utilities commission to sit in pub
lie utilities wage cases. House MEM
bers are not enthusiastic about these
elastic words. And that little change
didn't please the members who
promptly asked that the report be
carefully filed and placed in a. cool
spot until Martin returns to the floor.
Took Many Liberties.
Conferees took all manner of lib
critics with the house amendment re-
quiring supreme court justice qualifi-
cations for judges of the industrial
court. They removed the provision
entirely 1t was just the course ad-
ministration leaders had pleaded for
and the decision was anything except
a house victory. But the senate gen.
erously retained the house amend
ment making legislators ineligible to
appointment on the utilities commits
sion. This point won strong house
emphasis.
Adoption of the conference report
is a senate and Allen victory. If the
house rejects the report and asks for
a second conference, it means stand
for the Martin amendments. Observ-
erG are waiting until the Reno county
lawyer returns to take up his fight.
