EXPERIMENTING WITH
 HOGS TO FIND MERIT
Scrubs, Crossbreds and Pure.
 breds Are to Be Used.
Animal Husbandry Division of Depart ment of Agriculture Endeavorino to Clear Up Points on Feed
 ina and Breeding.

(Preparsd by the United States Department
 of Agriculture.)
 Although there Is higher percent age of purebred hogs in the country than of any other class of live stock, there is still much room for improve ment. And there is much to be known concerning the relative merits of scrubs, crossbreds and purebreds. To make some of the points clearer the animal husbandry division of the United States Department of Agricul- ture is starting a breeding and feed ing experiment that will contrast the results of using scrub, crossbred and purebred bOars on scrub and cross bred sows. If appropriations provide sufficient money it may be that the CT feet of using crossbred and scrub boars on purebred sows will be studied
 Ten crOssbred sows, of various breed mixtures, and ten scrub sows of the razorback kind will be used. Half of each of those groups will be bred to purebred boar; half of the hrst group will be bred to crOssbred, and half of the other group will be bred to a scrub. This same scheme of breed ing will be carried on from generation to generation. Some of the offspring will be fed out and some of them will be kept for breeding before being fed out Shoats from the different lots will be put in feed lots together and fed alike so that fair comparison can be made Some of these scrubs and crossbreds will be compared in feeding trials with purebreds raised on the de partment's experimental farm at Belts vIlle, Md. Some will be put into diff ferent experimental lots on various feeds.
 Nearly everybody thinks the pure bred Is superior to the scrub, but there Is disagreement among farmers about the merits of purebred and crossbred feeders. The department hopes that in due time its experiments will give results that will answer any doubts.

BRUlN HAD SENSE OF HUMOR
No Other Explanation of Animals Taking Picture ef His Enemy in
 Humili ating Flight.

For long time bears have been known to be humorous, but not until a few days ago was it demonstrated that black bear, if properly ap- preached, will display artistic leanings, remarks a writer in the New York Sun. Somewhere in the dim lore of bruin generations there may have been bears that had artistic inclina- tion or the subject of this story may be the advance agent of a new ultra tendency in wild life. Every supposi- ton, however, fails to explain satis- factoriIy how black bear in the will derness of the Allegheny park could pictures.
 Nevertheless, 1t is true that at least one bear knows photography, accord ing to k. $. Craig, a forester from the New York State College of Forestry
 Craig is engaged by the park com mission to assist in making study of the timber growth in the new state park. Black bears have always been plentiful in this section, where the Allegheny river winds through the mountains down to the Ohio. Craig was cruising through the forest gath ering timber data. He left his camera on log and was looking around for a good subject to snap when he discov- cred a big black bear browsing in some berry bushes.
 Craig was surprised. He neglected to think of the camera in the concen- trated effort to place distance be- tween himself and the bruin. He ran down the trail back to the camp and informed two companions of the pres ence of the black bear. The three men went back to the spot, but the bear had disappeared. The camera Craig left on the log was still where he placed it, but plate had been ex- posed. This did not attract attention until the plate was developed and showed him in rapid flight down the trail. -----.-----

Dancing Bird Trio.

A species of the "lap-wing' found in Argentine have dance in which the birds always take part. It Is in dulged in every day at intervals all the year round. So fond of it are they that before and during the breeding season, when the birds are distributed in pairs all over the plains, one bird may frequently leave his mate at home and fly away to visit another pair in the neighborhood. Those two, receive him with manifest pleasure and. run ming to him, place themselves behind him, where they stand abreast with their plumage puffed out. Then with the pair uttering loud, rythmical drum ming notes the leader uttering loud single measured notes they begin a rapid march, stepping in time to the music. When the march is ended the leader usually lifts his wings and holds them erect, still emitting loud notes. and the two birds behind, still standing abreast with slightly opened wings and puffed-out feathers, lower their heads until the tips of theii peaks touch the ground and at the same time sink their voices until the drumming sound dies to whisper. The performance is then over.

IMPROVE FOWLS EVERY YEAR
Man Breeding for Egg Production Should Pick Out Best layers
 for Breeders.

The poultry raiser who does best Is almost always the one who carefully and closely picks out each year only his choicest specimens and breeds from these exclusively. AS a natural result. his fiocks become better and better each year. By the same token, the man who is breeding for heavy egg-production should pick out his very best layers to be used exclusive ly as breeders, and in the course of al few generations the habit of pro lificacy will become firmly established h this family.

BODCAW

Good morning to all ye scribes and readers of the dear old Picayune.
 As I have been on the back sliders bench for the last few weeks and haven't sent up any news, will kick back in harness today.
 Health here at present good. Every one seems cheerful, glad they are liv- ing.
 Miss Gladys Whitten and Wilma Boswell were visitors in Bodcaw last Saturday night.

 The boys still go to Haynesville.
 Austin Candle was one of the num- Der who left last week. Poor Irba l feel sorrow for her. Weep not dear girl. Austin will return soon.
 I notice there is some excitement as to finding boil weevils in the roots of cuckleburrs. I will say I will pay five dollars each for everyone you find in the roots of a cuckleburr. Every bug you find is not a boil weevil.
 Say Blue Jay, you sure have us skinned down here on girl babys. We can't even produce boy. The old stork wont come this way at all. And you asked the question, what we thought about J. w Franks being the next County Judge. l will say he is the man I am sure the people at large here will stay with him. MT. Franks is not only a good judge, but a good honest gentleman.
 Say Sutton, how about Albert Bos- well for sheriff. With my help be- lieve he will make us good one. Don't you?

potash. This amount of plant food in the more available commercial forms would cost some S5.48, valuing nitro gen at 30 cents a pound, phosphoric acid at 10 cents and potash at 15 cents. From the standpoint of actual plantfood, then, 1t would appear that S8 will buy more than the wheat straw carries, and in more readily available form. More labor will also be involved in handling the straw as proposed than in using the con1mer- cial fertilizers.
