IN STEP WITH PROGRESS
Fred Gerber has Fine Line of Pure
Bred Poland China Hogs.

One of the finest herds of hogs in
Stevens county may be found on the
farm of Fred Gerber, living two
miles northwest of Donnelly. All told
Mr.. Gerber has some 100 pure bred
Poland China hogs on his place. And
they are real hogs from the herd
sire, son of a $4,000 boar and an
animal that will tip the scales in the
neighborhood of 1000 pounds, down
to the littlest squealer of the latest
litter.
Starting with a single SOW five
years ago, Mr.. Gerber has worked
only with the best blood in the Po-
land China lines and has three boars
that are exceptionally good indi-
viduals. The past winter he kept
over Is sows and has realized an
average of eight spring pigs to, the
litter for those that have already
narrowed. He has several to
come in soon. He has 70 young pigs
at present and all are in the best of
condition.
One of the striking features in con-
nection with Mr.. Gerber's hogs is the
friendIiness of the animals. They all
know their names and from the herd
sire down they are congenial and
friendly lot. Mr.. Gerber has not
yet held any sales but expects this
year to hold fall sale of bred gifts,
boars and open gifts and also a SINH
lar sale next spring.
Mr.. Gerber has three pastures for
his hogs which he uses alternately.
They are seeded down to oats, bar
ley, sweet clover and rape. When
the pasture the porkers are in gets
short they are transferred to one of
the other pastures SO that they are
always kept on ground that is fur
nishing them good feed.
The herd boar of Mr.. Greber is the
son of $4,000 boar and was Sc
cured from Charles Davies of Mel
vern, Ia, two years ago. The ami
NAL was grand champion at the
county fair last fall and at Herman
took first in the aged boar class and
sweepstakes against all other hogs
shown.
Last fall Mr.. Gerber purchased a
pure bred Holstein bull from Will
liam Meyer of Donnelly and gradual
ly expects to work into pure bred
Holsteins. At present he is milking
10 COWS. He raises most of his own
feed on his two hundred acres al
though the past year he found it
necessary to buy some feed. This

of the Ninth Federal Reserve Dist
riot, is necessarily very largely de-
pendent on the success of agriculture.
We are therefore, all of us, no mat

improve it's condition and prospects.
I'm the Ninth District wheat rails

in all movements looking to it's sue

cation of barberry for the purpose Of
eliminating black rust, and other
movements of a similar kind
''It is also important to consider the
desirability of the farmer so diversi-
flying his efforts as to eliminate to
the greatest possible extent the pos
sibility of partial or complete failure
of returns from his years work.
I'VE therefore have compiled
some figures showing prices of farm
products and costs, on a Northwest
ern basis, and covering a ten-year
period. These we have obtained
from the most reliable sources and we
believe they are substantially cor
rect. They indicate the Importance
of having a few COWS, chickens, pigs,
ETC., in addition to the production of
small grains. These figures, we be-
lieve, will be very useful, as we'll as

attention is called to the steady ad-

years, indicating very little fluctua-

and the chances of receiving good
value for it if fed to hogs was so
bright that more than the usual num-
Der of sows were bred. Gifts ready
for market were retained when their
usefulness as brood sows had been
impaired by heavy corn feeding. Ere
quently boars were put to unusually
heavy service because more sows than
the normal number were kept in
breeding herds. If the general prac-
tice were to use yearling or aged
boars no harm might have resulted,
but the great majority Of the pigs
produced are sired by boars less than
a year old.
Corn was cheap last winter and
protein feeds high in price. The nat
ural result was too little muscle and
bone building material in the rations
given the sows. Fat sows usually

CROP PRICE SURVEY
Shows Benefits From Diversified
Farming.

Butter fat has increased steadily in
price with very little fiuctuation for
the last ten years, according to data
prepared by Mr.. Edward w. Decker,
President of The Northwestern Ma
tiOnal Bank of Minneapolis, and pub
lished this month in a survey "A
Further Plea for Diversified Farm
ing"
The survey gives the prices paid
in Minneapolis for No l Northern
wheat, No. yellow corn, No. white
oats, fax, wool, eggs and live poultry;
at South st. Paul for beef steers; and
the average price paid for butterfat
by Minnesota creameries. Cost of
production, including farm labor,
taxes, machinery, threshing costs and
freight rates, make up another part
of the survey.
The outstanding feature of the in
formation collected is the fact that
butterfat, eggs and poultry show a
smaller drop from the high prices of
1919 and 1920 than do grains, live
stock and wool, and an advance
steady, though not as great during
the period of rising prices. Using
a scale with 1911 prices as 100
wheat prices reached the 800 mark in
1919; beef steers reached $50, wool
800 and butterfat 210. With the ex-
ception of butterfat, prices fell in
1921 approximately to the 1911 level
designated in the table as 100. Since
the compilation of the figures from
which the survey was prepared
prices have undergone an increase
which is not shown in the charts and
tables.
Mr.. Decker says: '"The prosperity

the greatest possible extent, and the
astounding increase in taxes per acre
particularly in North Dakota, the
figures for which we give here
should suggest to the farmer and
every one else the vital Importance of
more economy and use of business
judgment in public expenditure"

The Tribune Office and is available
to any one that would like to gain
more detailed information regarding
this important subject.

Heavy Pig Losses AnalHzed.

Reviewing the causes of the heavy
losses sustained by the early pig crop
in Minnesota, E. F. Ferrin of the ami

versity of Minnesota says:

grain last fall was so discouraging

farrow weak, improperly nourished
pigs.
Much trouble has been due to
scours which often affected the pigs
within two or three days after birth
and occasionally wiped out whole
filters. This seems to have been the
cause of the largest losses during
March and April"
While contagious abortion is
known to be increasing among
swine, Professor Ferrin belives that
this was one of the smallest factors
contributing to losses of pigs the
present spring.

BIG SLUGG[R
 ISREPENTENT Babe Ruth Declares He Has Been Banished From Game
 For Last Time

CLEVELAND, June 21.-(By The Associated Press.) - Babe Ruth has been banished from the game for the last time for arguing with an umpire. especially over decision rendered against another player, the champion home run slugger declared here to- day.
 Previous to today's game between New York and Cleveland, Ruth walked into the umpire's room at Dunn Field and made that announce ment to Empires Bill Dineen and Dick Nallin
 Ruth Is under suspension for five days, three for wrangling with Um- pire Dineen over a decision rendered in Mondays game, for which he was elected, and two for an argument with Dineeh yesterday over his first suspension.
 When he entered the room, Ruth was not in the least antagonistic, nor was he excited. If anything, he ap- peared repentant, but he offered ne apology.
 Bill, do you think I am getting square deal?" Ruth asked Dineen as Hc sat Ou d ldDle. 116 Hdu Just HIT ished practicing with his team.
 1T have nothing to do with that at all," Dineen replied. When a fellow is down and out, it seems to be case of holding him down. Ruth stated.
 "Well, you can bet it's the last time I ever will be s6spended for wrangling with an umpARe. In the future, I will keep out of the argu- ments, especially if they involve an other player.
 "I do not regret being out of the game because of the money it costs me. I really don't need the money, but I do love to play baseball. For that reason, it hurts when I can't get into the game.
 Another things that hurts is the criticisms. Some persons are saying that I welcome the suspension be- cause it gives me an alibi for not equalling my home run record of last year. That is ridiculous, as l realize that that is impossible. Others claim that I have a 'swelled head. My friends know different.

Three Americans Are Left in Running For Golf Championship

NEW YORK, June 21 Golfers throughout the country tomorrow will let their imaginations sweep across the Atlantic and be riveted on the Royal St Georges course at Sand wich, England, where three country men stand on the threshold of win ming the premier golf classic of the world
 Long Jim" Barnes, American open champion; Walter Hagen, western open champion, and title holder of the American Professional Golfers Association; and Jock Hutchison, the British-born American who won the classic last year, are the trio repre- senting the United States in the Brit ish open.
 Each has an excellent chance to win in the two days play of 36 holes each, that starts tomorrow All three qualified without difficulty, Hagen Spectacularly tieing Joe Kirwood, the Australian star, with 147 for the low est total for the two qualifying rounds. A round of IS yesterday gave Hutchison 149, and Barnes, go- ing around in 72, has 154.
 Barnes, Hagen and Hutchinson are the acknowledged American big three,' and Hutchison, having won the open last year, would all but wreck the British Empire if he car ried the championship away for two years in succession.

BENNY LEONARD HAS NOTHING TO LOSE
 IN MATCH WITH JACK BRETON FRIDAY

At the New York Velodrome, on June 23. Jack Britton, veteran Of box CTS and champion of the welterweight will be called upon to make the fight Of his life.
 He mixes it with Benny Leonard, chief cook of the lightweights, in a 15-round decision bout for the welter- title.
 Twice before they have met. once in New York and again in Philadel- phia. There was no argument about the first melee, it was Benny's, but the Quakertown scramble was disput- ed loudly by Jack.
 Leonard Can't Lose
 Leonard has everything to gain and nothing to lose. He can't lose his championship and Britton can. Brit is the willing fighter.
 Leonard is a terrific litter. Brit ton faces one of the worst fighters in the ring with record for stringing the kayOs.
 Jack is one of the hardest men to lay a blow on that ever rosined foot. He is always stepping from blow just at the junction. He isn't a heavy nlIIeT, DuI IHe cOnIlhuOuS WdB Ol lLe head and his ring smartness have kept the Welters from swinging him to the mat.
 Weight Even
 The chances are that Brit will not outweigh the light king to any degree, He will have to worry about the I47 mark Leonard's overweight has all ways been matter of discussion. No lightweight has ever worn the welter crown and if Penny does con meet he will be one of the most popu- lar boxers in tho game.
 He could let the 133 title slide grace fully and make the welter poundage much easier.
