A firm belief in ghosts prevails
among the inhabitants of Central
Africa. If a native believes that he is
possessed of a ghost he goes to his
local medicine man and asks him 20
expel it. One method the medicine
man has of doing this is to prepare a
meal, hoping that the food will tempt
the ghost to leave the body of the
man.

PORK MOST PROFITABLE
FARM PRODUCT TODAY
Hogs Bring More Revenue Now
Than in Two Years. Says De-
partment of Agriculture.

Pork production is more profitable al
present than it has been in two years,
according to a bulletin recently pub.
lished by the United States Department
of Agriculture.
Since January /, the price of hogs has
remained practically stable with slight
tendency upward. If the farmer buys
corn he will realize about 80 cents prof
it on bushel. II he feeds the corn
grown on his farm he will receive about
Sl.25 bushel for it. according to siatis-
tice given in the bulletin.
If the same amount of corn were fed
to beef cattle. the farmer would realize
about IS cents on a bushel. and if fed
to sheep about 95 cents.
Prices of horses. oats and wheat have
fluctuated during the last year and it is
a question whether or not farmers will
make expenses on them. Hogs have
proved to be the safest source of rev
enue.

GOVERNMENT PERFECTING
NEW BREED OF SHEEP
ID. A. Spencer, in Charge of U. S.
Experiment Station in Idaho,

investigator, has been conferring with
members Of the College Of Agriculture
for the lAst two days in connection with
extension work in that field. He lef,
for DuboiA Idaho this morning. Mr..
Spencer is in charge Of government ex-
pertinent station at Dubois, where inves-
tigation and experiments are being made
to perfect new breed of range sheep.
The new breed is called Columbia
sheep. and is being developed by using
RambOuillet rams with Lincoln ewes. in
turn breeding the offspring of this cross
which conforms to the perfect type.
The Columbia sheep closely resemble
the Corriedale breed of sheep which has
been imported into the United States
from New Zealand. The wool produced
is medium or ihree-eighths blood Of
good staple and averaging three and one.
half inches in length.
The purpose of the cross is to develop
better wool and mutton variety suitable
TO range conditions, according to r.
l.. Waddell, extension sheep specialist
Of the University. The Dubois expert.
ment station now has $500 sheep under
observation.
Mr.. Spencer while here also took up
the question of determining the most
likely field for practical demonstration
of the use Of blue stone solution for
treatment Of stomach worms in sheep.
which in recent years has caused the
heaviest losses of any sheep trouble in
the Middle West. Thousands Of sheen
are killed annually by this pes,ilence. ac.

These pumps have the low narrow COW

calfskin trimmed with the black patent
leather heel and toe. The Spanish heel
has replaced the high French heel and
is being sued almost altogether for dress.

leather is worn almost as much as white.
