FOR CHILDREN's BIRTHDAYS
 A PURE-BRED PIG OR CALF

In selecting birthday and Christmas gifts for children in rural communities, why not give a pure-bred pig, calf. or other animal? This is the suggestion of the United States department of agri- culture, which, with the various states, is conducting the better sfres - better stock" campaign. A recent questionnaire study of the utility value of pure-bred live stock showed. among other results, that home influence Is an important fac tor governing the breeding of superior domestic animals. In fact, 1t ranks in importance next to sales, fair, and shows. taken collectively. When parents show their interest in good stock the children are more likely to do so.
 One breeder told of receiving some pure-bred live stock as a wedding gift from his father-in-law. That beginning was an important influence, which re- suited in an entire herd of well-bred, profitable animals, a practical influence in the couples prosperity and happiness.
 Gift of good live stock, the depart ment points out, are not only acceptable in themselves but with proper handling multiply and give pleasure. satisfaction, and financial benefits for an indefinite period.

 For it's direction the picture could not have been .in abler hands than those of William de Mile, whose lconsumrnate skill in the interpreting of scenes filled with dramatic intensity has led to his be- coming one of the foremost producers of the motion picture world.

PROMPT ACTION AGAINST HOG
 CHOLERA SAVES HEAVY LOSS


 Watch for the first hog to show signs of cholera If the herd is treated in- mediately it is generally possible to save the herd with but few losses. If the dis ease, however, is allowed to reach all the animals before the serum preventive treatment is applied heavy losses may be expected. Antihogcholera serum is a preventive and not a cure for hog chol- era, the department points out
 Whenever hog dies of an unknown cause the owner should watch his herd closely for at least week, and if any more hogs in the herd begin to show signs of sickness veterinarian should be called immediately, for the chances are that hog cholera has reached the herd and prompt action in applying the serum treatment is the only thing that will save the well animals. A high tenn perature, ranging from 15o degrees to 10S degrees F., in hog that staggers when it walks, is a pretty good indication of hog cholera. Such hogs should be with other hogs or to wander about, for they will spread the disease wherever they go, sometimes in places where it is impossible to disinfect- Hogs that die on the farm should be buried, or, preferably, burned, in order to prevent birds, insects and animals that visit the carcass from spreading the disease.
 Usually the disease is most prevalent during the fall months and losses are

GROUND GRAIN NEEDED PART
 OF RATION FOR LAYING HEN,

6
 A mash composed of ground grains or their by-products and some form of ani- nal protein is an essential part of a ration for both growing chickens and laying hens. The reason is that birds putting on growth or producing eggs can not assimilate enough nutriment from whole or cracked grains to supply the maximum need. When the grain Is ground, says the United States depart ment of agriculture, little work is re- Quired of the gizzard, and much more of the feed can be used in making flesh or eggs. z.
 The scratch grain part of the ration, however, is needed to give the gizzard something to do in order to keep the birds in health. For laying hens the scratch grain thrown in the litter pro vides an incentive to needed exercise.
 It was once thought that the mash should be fed wet to produce the best re- suits, but experiments have proved that in spite of the, slightly better palatability of the wet feed, the convenience of feed ing it dry overbalances any slight gair in production. Feeding it dry is now the usual method. Digestibility Is not in- creased by wetting.
 The principal objection to the wet mash is that it requires too much labor. Il must be moistened, then carried to tho hens once a day, and the troughs must be, cleaned after each feeding. Cleanli ness is absolutely essential, because indi gestion and diarrhea will result from feeding in dirty troughs On the othel hand, the dry mash hopper may be filled once a week or even less frequently, ana needs no further attention. Hens do no overeat of dry mash aS they sometime. | do of wet feeds. -

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET


 Chicago, Oct e.-Although warifke as- poets of the Turkish crisis gave the wheat market an upturn at the opening today, buying power failed to broaden, and prices declined under persistent sell ing, largely of a profit-taking character. The close was unsettled at the same as yesterdays finish to 1c lower, with De- cember s1.061 F to $1065s and May $1.08 F to $10SSs. corn lost 1sc o Ac to 1h O IA, oats gained a shade sc O Ac, and provisions finished at Sc to 67c ad- vance.
 The fact that the wheat market had been on the upgrade for four days and that the foreign outlook although dis turbing was still asserted to be. for peace had much to do with the enlarged sell ing and the lack of any aggressive new demand Besides, Winnipeg reported greater hedging, pressure on account of expected heavier receipts, whereas the outlet for Canadian wheat was further restricted by lake freight rates rising to Sc bushel, the highest charge ever known In addition arrivals of wheat at primary points in the United States con tinued liberal.
 Showers relieving the drought which of late has retarded the sowing of winter wheat was a further bearish influence. On the other hand, domestic milling call for wheat was said to have improved in lrmany sections and exporters at the gulf of Mexico were bidding 1c higher on wheat in position to be shipped without delay. The eastern seaboard however sent word that exporters there were re- uctant to offer wheat abroad, being de- tered by the uncertainty of obtaining supplies
 Corn was weak from the start Talk of Argentine competition in export busi- ness acted as handicap to bulls, Oats were strengthened by comparative ab. sence of rural offerings.
 Provisions were firmer in line with hog values ad as result of packers buying presumably against shipping sales.

EGGS AND POULTRY. PLENTIFUL
 FORECAST FOR THIS WINTER

This fall and winter eggs and poultry will be plentiful and prices should be low enough to make them economical. Just now storage houses are full of eggs and farmers have increased their focks of poultry to an unusual extent On Au- gust there were 4,S12,24S cases of eggs in storage, which is about 35 per cent more than the average at this season for the last three years.
 Eggs start moving out of storage in summer and the greatest sales of such eggs come in fall and early winter. As rule, the bulk of storage eggs are sold before the 1st of January, the activity of the market after that date depending on whether the weather is severe or mild enough to stimulate egg production. An open winter practically eliminates the storage egg early in the season. But this year, regardless of the state of the whether, eggs should be available at very reasonable prices from the start
 Poultry farming, both as a speciality and as side issue on other farms, has been one of the best paying lines of agricultural work during the. last two or three years, which accounts for the large supplies on hand this year. Prices to the
