TANKAGE PROFITABLE DESPITE
CHEAP CORN FOR FATTENING
HOGS

hVOH
Despite the low prices for corn, il
is quite profitable to supplement the
corn ration for hogs with tankage, ac-
cording to w. L. Robson, swine spe-
eialist at the Ohio Experiment Sta
ton.
Tests show that approximately 10
bushels of corn when fed alone is re-
quired to carry a 40-pound pig to a
weight of 200 pounds, while only 10
bushels is needed when the corn is
supplemented with tankage.
When a ration, of corn is supple
mented at the rate of one part tank
age to nine parts of corn by weight,
4O-pound pig will have consumed APP
proximately 60 pounds OF tankage by
the time it has reached weight of
200 pounds.
Besides the saving in corn which at
~ cents bushel would give the tank
age a feeding value of 80 cents
pound. the use of tankage increased
the average daily grain from five
tenths to one and two-tenths pounds.
A period of 1877 days was required for
the pigs receiving tankage to gain
from 40 to 200 pounds.
Middlings or linseed meal and SINH
lar feeds may also be used to advan-
tage at times to replace a part of
such high-priced feeds as tankage, but
in winter feeding at least should not
be depended upon as complete substi-
.utes for tankage.

NEW MITCHELL ENGINE
HAS BIG FEATURES

One of the exhibits at the recent New
York motor show which attracted a
great deal of attention and still con-
tinues to interest the motor wise was
the exhibit of the new Mitchell ESQ
motor. n. w. Dlngwall. local manager
of the Mitchell company, says this in
terest on the part of the public is due
10 the fact that the new motor is diff
ferent in design from any other gaso-
line motor and, as far as he knows,
Is the first design of this kind incor-
porating low speed motor developing
unusually high torque at extremely low
engine speed. Another feature claimed
for this new motor is its unusual power
Its ability to climb hills or pull through
deep snow, sand or any kind of heavy
roads. The perfect combustion neces-
sary for such performances is largely at
tributa BILE to perfect carburetion, which
is obtained by the fuel first being warmed
before entering the carburetor. The gas
is then superheated by hot spot in
the intake manifold, through which 1t is
fed in equal quantity to each of the
SIX cylinders at all speeds. The fact
that perfect combustion is obtained Is
shown by the absence Of any odor.

TRUCK SALES SHOW
BUSINESS IS BETTER

Proof OF the fact that the general
trend OF business is on the upgrade is
seen by Lee j. Eastman, president of
the Packard Motor Car Company of
New York, in comparison OF Packard
truck sales and deliveries for the last
three months OF 1921 with those of the
preceding year.
"Sales for October. November and De-
cember, 1921, practically doubled 1920
sales for the same period. For the
single month of December. 1921. sales
show more than 100 per cent. increase
over those of 1920. Deliveries for last
month were SO per cent. more than De-
cember, 1920. An examination OF these
figures will show that the percentage OF
increase in sales was greater than that
in deliveries. This is explained by the
fact that many trucks were purchased
last month for future delivery. There
was a noticeable absence of such buying
last winter.
'1t seems to me. therefore, that bust
ness Is shaking off its pessimism and
looking TO the immediate future with
real confidence that the depression
period has passed. Further evidence OF
increasing activity is seen in the fact
that the figures for October. November
and December show a progressive in
crease in sales. Compare these condi-
tions with the stationary condition of
last winter and you see why l am con-
fident that the business cloud is pass
ing"

BROOKLYN'S SHOW TO
BE BIGGEST AND BEST

II the eleventh annual exhibition of
the Brooklyn Motor Vehicle Dealers AS
sociation. which is TO be held at the
Twenty-third Regiment Armory. At
lantic and Bedford avenues, starting
Saturday. March a. and lasting a full
week, Is not the greatest in the his
tory OF the organization, il will not be
the fault of the show committee. Ger
tainly 1t will be the handsomest ever
staged in Brooklyn. Things have
broken nicely for the Brooklyn dealers
this year, as the recent industrial show
has allowed the motor car dealers to
make deal with a decorator that will
make the March exhibition unusually
beautiful.
The show committee has accepted the
plan offered by the firm which deco
rated the armory for the recent in
dustrial show. Not that the decora-
tions will be the same, but the deco
rators were able to plan for both shows
at one and the same time, and so con-
siderable money has been saved for the
motor car men.
"Were it not for the fact that we were
able to combine the decorations OF the
two shows said a. member of the firm
of decorators which has the contract
for the motor car exhibit yesterday,
1--WE would not have taken the motor car
mems job for less than $25,000. The
show this year is going to be the most
beautiful ever staged in Brooklyn or

Aside from the dangerous feature, one
of the most costly results of bad skid

Street paving Is covered with an abra-

FAVORABLE TURN

Expert Tells How 1t Happened
and What 1t Means.
by EDWARD $. JORDAN.

For years people have been telling
me that the stock market always fore,

have never entirely accepted that
statement
Now / believe it is so.
The attendance at the New York au-
tomoble show broke all previous rec
ords.
In the last few days people who have
been waiting for eighteen months for
motor car prices to reach the bottom
are coming into the market in great
numbers.
Isn't it funny?
The mass OF the people evidently de-
cided that when Ford made his final
out of 81 a car it was conclusive evi-
dence that motor car prices on the
standard makes had reached bottom.
The automobile stocks began 20 go up
They will 20 higher.
Certain companies will have re-
markable year between February J.
1922. and February /. 1928.
This is due TO the fact that produc-
ton has been curtailed to such an ex-
tent that the demand In the spring will
exceed all expectations of production.
Those companies which are in produc,
ton and able to meet this demand will
enjoy very good business.
One OF the leading manufacturers
will raise his price 5000 on February
If the information I have Is correct
The turn has come.
Owners will no longer hold their old
cars with the expectation of getting
better trades.
1t will simply be question this spring
of whether d man owning an old car
will be able to trade it for one Of the
leading makes.
After March 1 he will fnd It very
difficult thing to do.
There will not be enough cars Of good
value In the hands of dealers to take
care of the demand after the first warm
day OF spring.
