HIGH SCHOOL BOY
MAKES PIGS PAY

Carleton Lynch, member of the class
in animal husbandry at the Central I'm
ion High school in Ell Centre, tells how
he raised six small pigs and made a
comfortable profit with little expense
and care. On August 81, 1921 Carleton
bought six stunted pigs with total
weight of "a pounds. By feeding them
quantities of sour milk, curd and whey
and corn, he increased their weight to
1867 pounds in five months. The cost
of the pigs, amount of labor, and price
of feed, gas and oil, totaled $62.91. The
selling price of the six pigs at the END
of the five month period was $121.60
Young Carelton's profit amounted &c
5000
He tells how he did it in the follow
ing paper on animal husbandry in the
high school pig project course.
''On August q, 1921, l bought six
pigs, which were born on August !.
When l got them they weighed "a
pounds altogether. They had been
stunted to some extent because their
mother had died when they were three
days old, and they had not had extra
good care.

to feed them a certain amount of skim
milk and corn for the purpose of seeing
how much they would gain until time
for them to go to the market, and in the
shortest length of time.
con November IL the weight of the
six pigs was 436 pounds or 73 2-3
pounds as an average.
"On December II, l weighed them
again, and the weight of the six was 767
pounds From November II to Decem.

PRoTEINs FOR POULTRY

The purpose of feeding carbonaeeous
grains is to furnish heat and energy.
All grains contain comparatively little
protein, and the little they do contain
is not highly digestible as a rule. The
protein content of both the body of the
hen and the egg which she produces ap-
proximates close to so per cent of the
entire dry matter, fact which en-
phasizes the necessity of the proper
amount of digestible protein in the ra-
tion. Since the various grains and mill
products contain so little protein that is
digestible for poultry, it is essential
that anImaI protelns be provided in

much of the land was being reclaimed
by means of a drainage system. On
some of this land the crops had narrow
ed down to three shallow rooted ones,
namely beans, barley and sugar beets,
due to high water table. This land
was being drained by large open
drains, about Is feet deep, which were
carrying considerable water.
The Berylwood stock farms was our
next stop. There we were shown their
purebred Holstein cattle and DurOc
hogs, also their well equipped build
ings. The boys and girls purebred calf
club was also discussed here. There are
10 members of this club, all of whom
have purebred Holstein heifers. These
calves were bought through the local
bank at an average price of $3.50
apiece, which also took care of the in
surance. These heifers will be bred to
the Berylwood herd bull which has a
service fee of $3.50. The club members
will only be charged 800 or they can
give the calf in lieu of the money, three
days after the calf is born.
we next visited another part Of the
Berylwood farm where we saw the diff
ferent implements used in cultivating
the harder lands Of Ventura county.
There were plows, both disc and mole
board, discs, culti-packers, cyclones
and tractors, all of which are used in
preparing the land for crops.
Only short stop was made at the
Citrus heights ranch, where we saw
some work which had been done on old
citrus trees in the way of building them
up by marching. These trees had not
only been injured by gophers, but had
also started to detcriorate, and this
method of building a new root system
of sour stock is proving very salts

the form of meat-scrap, fishmeal or
milk. Recent experiments have proved
that an abundance of protein in the
ration does not adversely influence the
hatchability of the eggs, as was for
merly contended. 1t is highly desir-
able, however, that a variety OF the
different forms of protein be fed, and
for that reason it is well to feed both
high grade meat-scrap and milk in some
form. The protein of wheat bran,
though not so digestible as the animal
proteins, is one of the best Of the pro-
teins found in grain. 1t is especially
desirable for breeding stock, and also
for growing chicks.

The Navy-Big or Little?

are not vitality needed is answered by
the naval experts with the fact that
the United States is practically with
out any light cruisers. Other naval
powers do not suffer from this lack
In the event of trouble, the United
States must depend upon its destroy
ers to function as light cruisers as
well. They must be scouts for the
fleet, carry on the service of infor-
nation, develop the enemy attack,
and screen the fleet. Until light
cruisers are completed and in commits
sion, fully manned, the Navy Depart
ment experts claim, it is entirely i'm
proper even to discuss reduction in
the number of destroyers which must
be kept in full readiness always
Theodore Roosevelt, Assistant Sec
rotary of the Navy, contends that the
Naval Reserve cannot be maintained
and built up under the bill now in Con-
gress. The possibility of manning
eagle boats and submarine chasers is
eliminated by the measure, he says,
junct of the Navy.
NAVAL RESERVES

the fleet has to be expanded quickly
trained Naval Reserve cuts months

fleet on a war footing" says Col.
Roosevelt. Furthermore, we pride
ourselves justfiably on the fact that
in all times of national need, our
young civilians rally to the colors. If
| they are to do so efficiently, if they
are to have a show for their white
alley we must give them an opportu-
nifty for training. We cannot do this
under the present bill"
! Col. Roosevelt calls the establish
ment under the proposed personnel a
lame duck" Navy. BY the bill, pride,
safety and influence of this nation are
put in serious jeopardy, he believes.
The naval situation is viewed as
more serious than it appears to be on
/ the surface. The things the Depart
ment wants included in the bill are
not things that can readily be created
in time of trouble. Just as Nation,

WASHINGTON. D. c., April 81. =,
Aside from its purely humanitarian
aspects, one of the reasons for the
Conference for the Limitation of Ar
maments, recently concluded in Wash
ington, was economy. Congress has
taken the economy factor so to heart
that it is now maintained that il the
naval appropriation bill in its present
form becomes law, the United States
will be in naval power considerably
below the place it is supposed to hold,
for defensive purposes, in the so-called
| $3.50 ratio.
The basis of the ratio is capital
| fighting ships super-dreadnaughts
and modern battle cruisers. Yet it is
elementary that the most powerful
fleet in the world, without the proper
trained complement of men, is of lit
tie or no use as unit of defense or
offense. And there, opponents of the
bill now in Congress maintain, is the
weakness and the threat to the United
! States
Navy Department experts maintain
that to keep the Navy in state of eff,
! ficiency, at the strength in ships which
is allowed by the four power treaty
a naval personnel of no less than &c.
900 should be provided for by legis-
lation. That is the minimum, and for
maximum efficiency and to provide
for all emergencies the country might
face, 100000 men are required accord
ing to naval experts.
4 The treaty into which America has
4 entered he mi {r
keep Is capital fighting ships of mod
ern type. 1t is estimated that with
$1,000 personnel provided by the naval
bill now before Congress, only Is OF
these vessels could be kept in cor
mission. The other five ships would
be ''in ordinary" which means thai
200 men would be kept aboard eacf
one to keep them from being utterly
ruined. The Japanese Navy, supposed
to have but three-fifths of the strength
, of the American naval forces, will
: have a personnel of more than $1,000
, men. Great Britain, limited to thu
: same number of capital ships as the
United States, will have a naval per
| sonnet totalling about 100000 men
The ships themselves mean nothing
nor do the guns, with no one to op
! crate them.
Destroyers Hampered
Not only will the men to man the
, big ships be lacking if the presen
measure becomes law, but the man
ming of auxiliary craft will be i'm
paired practically to the same extent
To operate battleships with efficiency
destroyers and vessels of other type
must be operated with them. Tn
Navy Department estimates that witt
the personnel suggested, it will be pos
sible to keep in commission a nava
tonnage of 703,148, while Japan, a
though on paper having but three
fifths the strength of the America
Navy, will be able to maintain $4,000
; tons in commissioner all interest
: and purposes, Navy quite the equa
of the American strength.

large numbers, sent across at an early
date, would have meant terminating
the fighting considerably sooner. &C
cording to military experts.
In the event of naval warfare, the
need is even more pressing for a per-
sonnet trained in advance. One of the
main reasons for this is the fact that
the ships for training new men would
be engaged in fighting, and the men
would have to be trained in their du-
ties on shore as best they could be
trained under this handicap.
Politics Concerned
However, the majority of the Mem
bers of Congress are facing fights for
their seats in the elections this fall.
With the country demanding economy
and prosperity, it is but natural that
the personnel situations of the men
who must vote for an against the ma
val appropriation bill must be taken
into consideration. There is feeling
here that the country at large is sick
of war and preparations for war, and
that it a poor time to try to arouse
interest in the future protection of the
country. The average citizen laughs at
the idea of any kind of trouble in the
near future, and sees no war clouds
on the distant horizon. He feels that
money spent for military and naval
purposes now, when the nations of the
world presumably are too poor to wage
war, is like throwing it out of the
window. The undeniable fact is that
in the past expensive naval arma-
ments of the first class have been SUI
perseded and rendered antiquated in
a few years by new developments in
ships and gun designs.
There are the two sides of the sit
uation Possibly next year with thy,
election past, the Navy will stand a
! better chance of securing the larger
personnel so earnestly desired by of
ficers and ether experts.
