1922 BANNER YEAR
FOR CONVENTIONS
New Orleans Will Be Meet
ing Place for 20 National
State Gatherings

New Orleans New Orleans will be
one of the Countrys greatest conven-
ton centers in 1922, according to re-
port of the Tourist and Convention
Bureau of the Association of Com
merce at its annual meeting Thursday.
The American Legion gathering in the
fall, which is expected tn~bring 100000
visitors, and the knights Templar tri-
ennial cOnclave which opens April %
are two of the 90 state and national
gatherings listed for the year.
Martin Behrman was elected chair
man of the bureau to succeed J. ID.
Kenny, who becomes vice-chairman
for 1922
Tourist and travel business through
out the country in 1921 declined from
rs to 40 per cent according to the re-
port. These conditions, 1t was pointed
out, made it difficult to induce nation
al organizations to hold their meetings
far from the main centers of popula-
ton, but notwithstanding this the bu-
reau listed 81 conventions, many Of
them national in scope.
The American Legion convention
was obtained for the city after six
months of effort, the campaign having
been launched by the Tourist and Con
vention Bureau. The secretary of the
bureau worked with the committees
from the beginning, and was active at
Kansas City when the vote was taken
that brought the convention to New
Orleans
During the year the bureau distrib-
uted 10000 pieces of literature to in
quirers and visitors and conducted a
publicity campaign in Northern papers
and magazines to attract tourists to
New Orleans
The increasing number of conven-
tions, it is declared. points to the need
of a municipal auditorium.
Among the national conventions list
ed for 1922 in addition to the American
Legion and knights Templar, are the
National Association of Sand and
Gravel Producers, Catholic Knights OF
America, Federated Film Exchanges
of America and the National Coffee
Roasters' Association.
1 Regional gatherings include the
Southern Sash, Door and Millwork
Manufacturers Association, Southern
Pine Association, Southern Hardware
Jobbers' Association, Southern Seed
mems Association and the Interstate
/ Farm Conference.

REQUIREMENTS OF FALL PIGS
May es Considered as Much the Same
a. for Animals Of Same Age at
Any Season.

The feed requirement Of the fall pig
after weaving may be considered as
much the same as for pig of similar
age at any other season. according to
T.. A. Weaver of the Missouri College
OF Agriculture, since the young grow
ing animal Of any kind must have
plenty Of protein and ash, the muscle
end bone building nutrients. The
feeds. however, which are available In
the fall and the weather conditions
are quite different, 80 that the care OF
the fall narrowed pig presents more
or less special problem; and the
later IN the fall he Is farrowed the
more complex the problem.

fact that only about 80 per cent of
the sires used in the dairy herds of
the county are purebred. The re-
mainder are either grades or scrubs.
About 20 per cent Of the cows list
ed are purebreds. These animals are
for the most part scattered through
q large number Of herds, showing that
the average dairyman is working into
purebreds as fast as financial condi-
tions will permit.
In studying the census 1t is noticed
Immediately that the most prosper
Gus sections of the county have high
grades and purebreds. This is not
confined entirely to the valley farms.
since the town Of Tioga contains the
largest number Of purebreds-35 bulls
and 1926 cows Of any town in the
county. Newark valley Is in billy
country for the most part, but 1t is a
prosperous farming section. 1t boasts
OF 68 purebred bulls and "a purebred
cows among 1893 animals or nearly
10 yer cent In another town in SINH
lar hilly country the agriculture is
more backward. The purebred cat.
tie are limited to II bulls and Is
cows out OF 5O6 animals, which Is but
little more than 5 per cent Similar
differences were noted In six other
townships surveyed.
The Tioga county farm bureau Is
starting on a campaign to eliminate
TIE scrub sire from the herds Of the
county. At the fall county fair in
September a purebred bull sale was
held on the last day. The animals
were sold to the highest bidder re-
CARELESS OF price. In some cases the
farm bureau will arrange with men to
own q sire as community enterprise.
and to exchange sires from one COM
munity to another as time goes on.
Every effort Is made to eliminate In
ferior stock and to place purebred
bulls and heifers wherever possible on
grade farms.

In a combat between diamond rat

was victorious over his more virulent
adversary. During the fight, reports
a writer in Science. the racer was
badly bitten by the rather; whereup-
on the former worked his way to a
patch of weeds and bit into the stems,
extracting the juice, after which he
returned to renew the fray. This pc
culiar performance was repeated In a
short time, when the racer again re-
turned and destroyed the rattlesnake.
