How Much Should a Brood Sow Eat?

How Much Should a Brood Sow Eat?
"The amount of feed brood SOW
should eat depends first upon what
kinds Of feed she eats" says E. F.
Ferrin, professor Of animal husbandry
at the University of Minnesota. "Corn
alone is very poor feed for sows, it's
only advantage being cheapness in
price. Few good filters of pigs are
produced on corn. Oats is a much
better grain for brood sows than corn,
and mixture of about equal parts of
oats and corn is better than either
grain alone. Alfalfa or even clover
hay will pay good returns when fed to
brood sows.
"A sow older than two years, one
that has completed her growth, usually
needs to make gain of about one half
to three fourths of a pound daily
through the winter to put her in good
shape for narrowing. A gilt or year
ling sow has to continue her growth
besides producing litter of pigs, and
a pound day gain is none too much
if these young sows are thin at the be-
ginning of the winter.
ut is not desirable to have brood
sows fat when the pigs are born, but
it is good thing for them to have
some reserve fat to draw upon while
sucking pigs.''

". tional Marketing Bill.
& St. Paul, Feb. The leader Of the
famous agricultural bloc in the Unit
ed States senate has called on the Min
nesota Farm Bureau federation for
help in the coming legislative battle
to pass the Capper- Volstead co-opera-
tive marketing bill. At the request Of
Senator William s. Kenyon, the state
farm bureau has prepared . brief to
be used in congress when debate on
the bill begins. The brief shows the
progress made by Minnesota farmers
in building up cooperative marketing
organizations, and the practical re-
suits obtained by these organizations
during the last year.
The review of Minnesota's expert
ence in cooperative marketing is ex-
pected to play an important part in
the fight for passage Of the Capper-
Volstead bill. This proposed act, al
ready passed by the house Of repre-
sentatives, guarantees to the farmers
of the United States virtually the
same rights of collective bargaining
that already have been guaranteed by
state law in Minnesota. It would do
nothing more than give farmers CO.

business, the same rights now enjoyed

DRIVE TO STOP {.
FORECLOSURES
Farmers Face Wholesale Loss of Land
=, if Creditors Insist on Payment,
Federation Warns.
CREATNEED FOR LENIENCY
Interest of Whole Public Demands
That Redemption Period of
Loans be Extended.

st. Paul, Feb. 2.-"D0nt fOrecl0se."
That was the warning issued today
by the Minnesota Farm Bureau fedora
ton, in a statement which declared
that public welfare as we'll as the in
terests of the individual creditor make
farm mortgage foreclosures "at least
unwise and at most disastrous"
In hundreds of cases, farmers will
be unable to meet interest payments
due on their farm mortgages in March,
the federation said, in spite of the fact
that the loans themselves are abso-
lutely sound. In large number of
farm mortgages, there is clause
which makes the whole sum of the
mortgage fall due when the farmer
misses an interest payment.
'The individual creditor may feel
that it is right and even necessary for
him to foreclose on the mortgage he
holds" the federation said. "But the
interest of the whole public, and his
own business interest as we'll, demands
that he stop to consider the effect on
the economic situation if every credi-
tor took advantage of present condi-
tions to close out every farmer who
fails to meet his interest payments or
payments on contract for deed. A
policy of wholesale foreclosure would
mean a tremendous setback to Mime
sofa agriculture. 1t would take away
from scores Of young, progressive far
mers the land on which they are be-
ginning to make homes and develop
up-to-date farms. 1t would destroy
what confidence remains, and would
delay still longer our recovery from
present conditions"
In some counties, it has been sug-
gested that a special session of the
legislature should be called to strike
out the mortgage provision making
the whole loan fall due when an in
terest payment is missed and also to
1engthen the redemption period to two
years. Eighty per cent of the farms in
our county are mortgaged," says one
letter received by the farm bureau
s'Public opinion must be aroused to the
situation. It is the only way to pre-.
vent intense mental suffering on the
part of thousands of responsible far
mers who face foreclosure, and wht
will have to labor for year not know
ing whether they will lose thei1
homes"
A resolution passed by the third an
nual convention deplores "the DISPOSE
ton on the part of a great many wht
are in the farm loan business, to take
advantage Of the financial stringency
by unduly raising their interest rates
and by asking excessively high com
missions" In spirit of cooperation
it says, where there is no question
about the adequacy of the security
eve respectfully submit plea for the
greatest degree Of leniency in the mat
ter of maturing loans and delinquent
interest, so long as the safety of the
loan is not in jeopardy"

added as an amendment to the naval bill
and was the origin of the Washington
Conference"
OF this confer nee it is undoubtedly best
to read the chapters in the book devoted
to it rather than mere abstract of them.
Neither the contentious of the Chinese and
Japanese nor the reasons for them can be
briefly stated. The psychology of the most
important issue, according to Mr.. Simpson.
was clearly misunderstood. and moreover
no matter how great was the modification
made on the Pacific SO as to bring the
United States within the circle of friend
ship. China stood just as poor a chance of
fair treatment"
There is perhaps something OF the Ori-
entail in the suggestion that mems legs are
more important as a political indication
than their hands and head and should al
ways be attentively studied Secretary
Hughes. standing still, with his arms hang
ing loosely beside him. disclosed imperfect
knees and small feet-two dangerous char
acteristics. They mean proneness to the
influence of others; a tendency to accept
formulas without proper inquiry an alb
sence of true conviction" But while this
may have proved true in the Orient the
Secretary's course at the conference did
not fulfill the prophecy.
OF Japan's future the author attempts
no predictions. For centuries the race has
been trained to conceal and repress. he
writes. and no man at the present moment,
not even the Japanese themselves can say
what will be the state of the nation five
years hence. With unusual frankness he
observes that little originality has been
shown by the Chinese leaders educated
abroad. He considers il a remarkable fact
that a race as intellectual as the Chinese
should have failed to produce i'm the revo-
lutionary period single strong personality
with strong views and executive capacity.
And there is a warning TO the outside
world in his statement that the Chinese
will not agree among themselves on any
single issue for at least generation unless
there is a binding compact involving for
eign nations as well as themselves with
admittedly just means of dealing with in
fractions. Fhey are too numerous, he says.
and their territory too vast. their society
too upset fer anything else to he possible.

AN INDISCREET CHRONICLE FROM THE
PACIFIC. BY Putnam Weale. Dodd. Mead
& Co.
NO one in the least familiar with the
~ Far East has any doubt but that
Bertram Lenox Simpson. or since
we are better acquainted with him by his
pen name. Putnam weale knows his China
by long residence and his Japan by conse-
quent geographical propinquity. He served
under that master of the Orient. Sir Robert
Hart. and, as a loyal and hard working
pupil he gained his rudimentary knowledge
not by hearsay but by actual experience.
When. years ago. he gave the world "In-
discreet Letters from Peking" it knew
that it was reading of the inside life of the
Manchu capital. When it reads now his
latest work. "An Indiscreet Chronicle from
the Pacific" it may be assured that it is
getting an intelligent sidelight on Oriental
political conditions.
Mr.. Simpson was one of the advisers of
the Chinese delegation at the Washington
Disarmament Conference He came how
ever. earlier than that to America In May.
1917, China obtained secret information
that Japan had determined to take up di-
rectly with the United States the question

effort to secure the withdrawal of the
American Asiatic squadron as a prelim-

stand between him and the two billion
people who make the world go round with
their plows and their hammers. their
loves. their little ambitions and their faith
in something better beyond the grave.
Some times it seems that Mr. Wells sur
veys historical occurrences from a point
too far Off. Take. for instance his COM
ment on the discovery of the internal com
bustion engine. To him il means but one
thirg-rendering flight possible. To the
man in the street in this country il means
automobiles and tractors: comfort and
pleasure for millions of families: the abil-
ity to live in the country. miles from the
railroad: quick and cheap transportation
of food; the rescue of the farmer from the
old slavery. But airplanes. which appeal
10 Mr.. Wells. carry diplomatic dispatches.
while motor cars carry babies and bread:
and it is hard to make the historians class
be bies and bread as more important to his
tory than documents Of state.
Most historians love the dramatic and
are likely to let it sway them too much
or course the dramatic is necessary for
the interest Of the book; but not all drama
in history relates to battle or victory. Mr.
Wells has in this book a good deal about
the Holy Roman Empire, that theater of
the old dramatics: but he omits the final
acts: Charles of Austria. the last remnant
of the Empire, going down the Danube to
exile and death. No scene in all the Euro
pean cataclysm was more typical of what
had happened to kings and princes.
If considerable fault has been found here
with Mr.. wells's book. the fault is not
with what he has done but with what ne
has left dndone His Is a good book i'm
many ways. II he had left of the last
hundred pages and called il a history of
