bert Campbell, a thirteen-year-old boy
in Haskell county, Oklahoma, persist
ed In spite of various setbacks until
in little more than year he had not
only started a purebred herd of his
own, but eliminated all the scrubs
from his fathers farm and induced
the latter to plant forage crops that
had never been tried before.
To begin with, Thurbert's father was
not very much interested, either in his

purebred gilt would cost $50. The
county agent became interested and
took the matter up with the father,
who agreed to let the boy borrow the
money If he could do so without obi
cation on the fathers part.
When the time came ten pigs were
narrowed, but only one was alive. 1t
was a crushing blow. Thurbert came
to the codnty agent for advice. His
$50 note was extended by the bank.
He was determined not to quit. The
gilt was bred again, and Thurbert
went right ahead caring for his pig.
The second litter brought eight pigs,
all alive, and things looked consider
ably brighter for the boy. The one
pig from the first litter sold about this
time for $45, and two of the new ones
for SIS each, so that after paying his
note with interest Thurbert had 500
left.
From the same breeder who fur
nished the gilt Thurbert now bought
a boar pig. The price, $50, was to be
paid when the boy had sold some more
stock. Two more pigs which were
sold at $25 each cleared the note off
and left Thurbert free from all in
debtedness with balance in the bank.
An arrangement has been made with
an older brother who is to grow the
feed while Thurbert furnishes the
herd. The "herd" consists now Of

FEEDING THE PREGNANT EVE
Fair Amount Of SiIage, With Cotton
seed Cake and Hay, Is Rec
ommendation Made.

Pregnant ewes should receive from
three to four pounds of silage per
head daily during the winter. This
should be supplemented with two or
three ounces per head daily of cotton
seed cake and some hay. After the
lambs are born silage increases the
milk flow of the ewes. In the fatten-
ing of lambs and yearlings for market
the cheapest gains have usually been
made when silage constituted a part
Of the ration.

FEED SILAGE TO THE SHEEP
Must Not Be Made Entire Ration, but
Should Be Used With Propor-
ton of Hay.

Whether or Dot 1t pays to feed silage
to sheep, hogs and horses is q more
or less debatable question. 1t will be
safe to feed it to sheep of all classes
except that feeding flock of breeding
ewes on silage alone or a ration
composed almost entirely of silage is
likely to cause a crop of weak lambs
in the spring. 1t will always be safer,
therefore, to use some hay and toward
spring little grain also for ewes that
are due to lamb.

PREPARING FOR SPRING PIGS
Good Idea During the Winter to Ar
range for New Pastures and
Lot-Practice Rotation.

II is well to plan new pastures and
lots for the spring pigs. For next to
disease, worms probably cause the
greatest losses. The larvae of the
various types of infectious worms lie
over in the grass and on the ground
for months. A mudhole may be full
of them. Rotation of pastures and
lots is a good practice in raising
healthy pigs.

GYPSY BLOOD AT

Another sensation in filmdom is of fered in the engagement starting to- morrow of Pola Negri. starring ir Gypsy Blood,'' which the Rialto will screen for three days, and offer in addition the Dimond company of Hawaiians and the augmented mu- sical program, in which George J. Hayes, at the big organ. and Carrol Reeds baby syncopated symphony orchestra will divide honors.
 Gypsy Blood'' comes to the Rialto immediately following it's sensational Los Angeles run, and sensational is the only word to describe the recep- ton it had in the coast city.
 Seldom has there been a star of such depth of art as is exhibited in the startling registrations by Pola Negri. She is acclaimed the most versatile feminine star in pictures. Her emotional values are positively enthralling. And when one thinks of the role of the Spanish cigarette girl, girl of whims and loves and hates and passions, tickle, adorable, flaming mems blood into uncontrol- lable heights, fighting, spirited, where could one look for better artiste to interpret the role than this same Pola Negri?

 Their distrust had to be overcome, she had to become a woman, and the translation from the girl of shallow ness and haughtiness to the woman of clear understanding and deep character stamps High Heels as as clever a picture as Gladys Walton has ever had.

 tertainment more popular with the theatergoer than Hawaiian music and

 this noted troupe is bound to be
 keenly relished.
 Harold Lloyd will present his com edy, Get Out. and Get Under" for the final screenings today. This is

 and gloom of motoring, and finds Lloyd with one of the funniest char acteriza tions of his entire career in pictures.
