Many a man has established
reputation for wisdom by merely
keeping his mouth shut and looking
wise It must be borne IN mind that
the ovl-the symbol Of wisdom
breaks its silence only at long inter
vals, and even then its vocabulary
Is confined to a few monOsyllables.
But taciturnity Is not always a safe
criterion The story is told of a
couple, taking a mental photograph
Of a dignifed stranger who sat Op-
posite in a public cafe, but the
charm with which the mystery sur
rounded him was broken when the
impressive presence parted his lips
TO say, "Please pass me some Of
those molasses." Then he could no
longer be mistaken for a savmt or
philosopher. he lost his seeming
dignity when he broke his silence.
1t is a good rule to think ali you
speak, but not TO speak all yOu
think; for discretion is the better
part of valor, and thinking is not

ment. In the case Of Iowa the fg-
ures were obtained almost immedi-
ately. In other cases it has been
necessary to send out numerous
questiOnnaires and sometimes the
information has been obtained only
after persoial visits. In one state
l,oOO questionnaires had to be sent
out to bring in the needed figures,
and in some it has peen found that
practically no records have been
kept. OR some of the counties in
New Mexico questionnaires had 10
be translated into Spanish before
the road officials coult understand
them.

HEAVY CORN FEED
HURTS BROOD sOws

Many farmers make common
mistake Of feeding their brood sows
too liberal an allowance Of corn the
week preceding farrowing with the
result that the animals develop a
feverish condition before the arrival
Of the pigs. according to experience
ed swine breeders. This trouble
can can be prevented by including
linseed oil meal in the ration and
reducing the amount Of corn fed
during the week preceding farrow-
ing. according to Grady Sellards,
swine field agent at the College Of
Agriculture. Linseed oil meal is
valuable as a laxative and may be
used to supply the protein in the
ration.
At this time Of the year the SOW
should be receiving a ration that win
enable her to gain from 50 to IS
pounds between the time that she is
bred and the time that she farrows,
since the average SOW viii lose this
much weight in farrowing and nurs-
ing her litter, according to Mr.. Sell
lards. Among the rations that have
given good results at the college is
one composed of 80 pounds of
ground oats, 80 pounds Of middIings
or shipstuff, 80 pounds Of corn and
10 pounds of tankage. Aonther good
one is composed of 60 pounds Of
middlings, 40 pounds of corn and 10
pounds Of tankage. Ninety parts of
corn and 10 Of tankage may be used
for another.
A good mineral mixture to- keep
in a self-feeder before the sows, as
well as the other hogs. at all times
is composed of two bushels of slack
coal. two quarts Of air-slaked lime;
two pounds Of salt, one bushel of
wood ashes and one and one-fourth
pounds Of eopperas.

To REORGAN|zE
BUSINESS MEN
Older Members Will Consti.
tute One Class, Younger
Men in Another

The Y. NJ. c. A. physical commit
tee at Its meeting last night decided
to reorgsnize the present business
mems gymnasium classes on June !
in order that the younger fellows
and older business men will not be
in the same class. BY this method.
IL IN believed. the men who have
not the speed of the younger fell
lows will secure mor enjoyable and
q better workout in each class.
The "" has a large number of
middle-aged business men on its roll
and it is the intention of the physi-
cal committee to have Physical Di-
rector Schuyler G. Pew SO arrange
the classes that both the older and
younger men a get the most out
Of their gymnasium periods. A no.
tice will be published at once IN
structing all business men to regis
ter before June i with Director Pew.
He will then take these names. and,
In conjunction with the physical
committee, assign the men to the
class in which they will derive the
biggest benefits and secure the mos.
enjoyment.
This action has been taken owing
TO the increasing number of young
men who have joined the business
mems classes for the volley ball
games. These younger fellows,
most of whom play a vigorous
'.spiking" game, have been playing
a game which made il difficult for
the older men to keep up with them.
The idea now is to get together al!
of the older men and have them play
the game as they played II in years
past. thus giving all an equal chance.
BY combining the younger men to
one class they can play their faster
game with more opposition from
men of their own age than has been
possible under the present method.
With this reorganization of the
business mems classes. added inter-
est on the part OF the older business
men is anticipated and efforts will
be made to have some of those VINO
have not attended gym class recent
ly to again participate in the game.
The ~advisability of organizing
business mems volley ball team to
represent the association in addition
to the regular varsity team which IL
composed, practically of the young
err members, was discussed by the
physical committee and such an idea
was favored by all. 1t was pointed
out that the present varsity team II
more than a match for a majority Of
the other association teams in the
state and that an older business
mems team could be organized tc
represent the association agains'
these combinations. The varsit,
could then confine its games to the
younger and stronger combinations
in this part of the country.
The physical committee last night
also decided to go on record favor
ing the building of an addition u
the present gymnasium In order tina
the members might be given bettei
facilities for exercising. Plans 70
the excursion up the Hudson rive
to West Point on July % were dis
cussed.

Judging from exhibitions put up
by the Philadelphia Colored Giants
In contests played to date this sea-
son the fans of this section are in
for a real treat on the Raritan Cop
per Works field Sunday afternoon
inasmuch as this team had been
booked to oppose the Perth Ambcy
Athletic Association nine.
Messrs. Applegate and Poulsen
are confident that their team will
not lose its second game of the sea-
son Sunday afternoon, and IL the
local team takes the measure OF the
Philadelphia Giants in this contest
this result surely will not have been
expected. The Philadelphia colored
team has travelled at such a pace to
date that critics have doped this
team to be stronger than the Royal
Colored Giants.
Some idea of their strength can
be obtained through the showing of
this team against the Perth Amboys
of two seasons ago in a post season
