NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-Although
Lena Stein, now So years of age, has
been deaf and dumb ever since her

as we'll as the average person. This
remarkable recovery of speech and
hearing followed an attack of pneu-
monia, complicated by influenza, ac-
cording to physicians, who have OBJ.
served the case in an effort to trace
the possible effects of the illness upon
the old woman's ear drums and voca!
cords.

HOG SHOW AT STATE FAIR
Profit in Home Raising To Be Shown
Delaware State Farmers

Because of the efforts being made
by provision packing houses in Will
mington and in this state, the display
of sheep and swine,' particularly the
latter, will be of special Importance
and Interest to farmers who visit the
Delaware State Fair, which opens at
Elsmere on Labor Day. The fact that
hogs from the middle west and the
south are brought to Delaware to be
killed and made into meat products,
when farmers of Delaware can raise
just as fat and palatable porkers and
derive the difference in the price of
the porker and the freight costs, is
one of the important items in cOnnec-
tion with the farm that heads of pack
ing houses hereabouts have been striv-
ing to impress upon the farmers. Be-
cause the hogs can run wild about an
enclosure on farm for many months
of the year and then fed in pens
towards the time when they are to be
sold, upon the things raised on the
farm, makes the proposition unusually
attractive from a money-making point
of view. Farmers of the Eastern
Shore of Maryland have gone pretty
generally in raising hogs. The pork
ers are being fed on the stuff raised
on the farm and for which many times
during the season the market is poor.
But it's a good market when put in
hogs. In the hog display at the Fair
every animal being exhibited must
have through its owner a certificate
showing that it is not tainted any way
with any communicable diseases, thus
assuring nothing but absolutely
healthy specimens of the breed. There
are thirty-four premiums offered for
specimens of the Poland China breed
which is popular breed in Delaware.
