sELF.FEEDERs ARE, POPULAR
Devices Eliminate Great Portion Of
Labor Involved and insure
Uniform Heauita.

Self-feeders for hogs have, come into
great popularity among farmers and
feeders largely because they eliminate
q great portion Of the labor involved
in feeding and insure more uniform
results and gains from the hogs
Hogs in the wild state were, settled
animals, living upon such feeds as
would satisfy their appetltes, and I'M
der domestication they seem to thrive
best when fed by the same principle.
The marked success Of the self-feeding
principle of hog raising is largely due
to the fact that they may eat an
abundance Of those feeds which will
nOurish them to the best Advantage.
The self-feeder should be desi@ned
primarily to keep an available supply
Of grain constantly before the hogs,
and at the same time protect the cbn-
tents against waste due to wind and
rain. A self-feeder consists Of hop-
per to hold the feed and trough be-
lew it into which the grain flows as
the hogs eat 1t. Complete plans tor

government except those Of the Pres
ident and vice president. It was the
established usage during these first
40 years to permit executive officers,
except members Of the cabinet, to hold
office for an unlimited period during
good behavior. The practice was
changed In 1920 by the four-year-ten-
ure act. The spells system, as 1t was
officially described as early as 1888.
was introduced and extended until IL
permeated the entire civil service o.
the country.
The fundamental purpose Of the CIV
II service law was to establish, in the
parts of the service covered by ito
provisions. merit system whereby
selection for appointment should be
made upon the basis Of demonstrated
relative fitness, without regard to po-
litical, religious, or other such con-
siderations.
The act requires that the rules shM
provide, among other things for opel
competitive examinations for testing
the fitness Of applicants for the CLASH
fed service, the making of appoint
ments from among those passing with
highest grades. an apportionment Of
appointments in the departments at
Washington among the states and ter
ritories, period of probation before
absolute appointment and the pro-
hibition Of the use of official authority
to coerce the political action Of any
person or body.
In 1883, the year In which the civil
service law was enacted, 1924 posi-
lions in the civil service were made
subject to competition. The entire
number Of positions in the federal
executive civil service on June 20,
1916, was ASO,327. At the height of
the war expansion there were approx
imately 100000 men and women en-
plOyed in the federal executive civil
service, about 100000 of whom held
positions subject to competition. On
July 81, 1920, the entire number of
federal executive civil positions, as
nearly as can be estimated. had been
reduced to 691,1 Jig. Approximately
100000 Of these were subject to COM
petition, or, in other words, in the
classified service. The force is still
slowly but steadily decreasing.
During the 10 months Of our partici-
patton in the war the civil service
commission gave competitive exami-
nations under the civil service law and
rules to slightly less than 100000 per-
sons, and about 100000 persons with
tested qualifications were supplied by
the commission to the service. A nor
NAL years business Is about 100000
persons examined and about $4,000
appointed.

"Of course she hasn't!" his partner
assured him. "She Inever had two
dollars and half in her life!"
"Well, them" said Henry gloomily,
''what we goin' to do about It.?
How much you think we ought to
charge herr"
Herbert's expression BECAME nom
committal. "Just let me think min
ute," he said; and with his hand to
his brow stepped behind the unsus-
picious Florence.
II got to think" he murmured; then
with the straightforwardness Of his
age, he suddenly seized his damsel
cousin from the rear and held her in
a tight but far from affectionate en-
brace, pintoning her arms. She
shrieked, "Murder!" and LET me go ~
and "Help! Hay-yulp!".
"Look in her pocket" Herbert
shouted "She keeps her money in
her skirt pocket when she's got any.
It's on the left side Of her. Don't let
her kick you! Look out!'
II got IL" said the dexterous Henry,
retreating and exhibiting coins. "1t's
one dime and two nickels-twenty
cents. Has she got any more pock-
ets?"
."No, haven't!" Florence f1ercely
informed him. as Herbert released
her. "And I guess you better hand
that money back If you don't want to
be arrested for stealingy"
Henry was unmoved. ''Twenty
CENTS" he said calculatingly. "Well,
all right; 1t isn't much, but you can
have your poem in our newspaper for
twenty cents, Florence. If you don't
want to pay that much, why take your
ole twenty cents and go on awayl"
"Yes," said Herbert. "That's as
cheap as we'll do 1t, Florence. Take
1t or leave It,"
'Take it or leave it." Henry Rooter
agreed. 'rhat's the way to talk, to
her; take it, or leave 1t, Florence. II
you don't take It you got to leave t."
Florence was indignant, but she de-
cided to take 1t. s"All right" she said

The average quantity Of feed consumed
for 100 pounds of gain was $50 pounds
Of grain, 62 pounds. of commercial con-
centrates, 391 pounds of dry roughage
such as hay and corn fodder, 1868
pounds of silage, and the equivalent. of
20 days Of pasturage.
In addition to these cooperative

ana, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and Mis-

tons in southwestern Wisconsin to de-
termine the costs andeamounts of feed

to raise calves from w4aning time to

HIRE GOVERNMENT HELP

The civil service commission hires
| all employees in the classified service
OF the government. The only thing to
be said about the classified service, is
that 1t has not yet been classified.
But you shall hear what the civil serv-
Ice commission has to say about hir-
Ing help, without comment from me.
There Is an utter lack Of definitely
planned and well-organized employ
ment policy in the government serv-
Ice.
There is need for centralized en-
ployment office with Jurisdiction in all
matters relating to employment.
The employment methods of the gov
eminent should be such as to serve
for model for private business.
There is at present no central con-
troll over the executive service short
Of the President. The President is a
busy man and cannot concern himself
with the details of the executive de-
partments.
The lack Of efficiency in govern
ment offices has a marked effect on
private business.
Definite information concerning the
number of federal civil employees in
different branches of the service and
the amount Of the government pay
roll are not readily available.
An official register, or blue book,
Is Issued every two years. 1t Is out
OF date long before it is printed.
A provision Of the civil service rules
theoretically gives the civil service
commission authority to collect and
maintain complete personnel Stats
tics. The labor and expense involved,
however, practically prohibit the col
lection and compilation of reliable sta.
tistical data.
In addition to the limits Of the COM
missions authority is the absence of
authority to enforce its findings. The
commission can make recommends
lions to the departments and offices
and urge their observance, but it can
not enforce them.
Congress passed what is known as
the civil service law January 16, 1883.
This act created the United States
civil service commission. The law was
intended. to cure in part the evils
traceable to the spells system, which
grew out Of the four-year-tenure-o of
Office act of 1920.
During the first 40 years after the
organization OF our government, I'D.
ministrative practice with regard to
the civil services seemed to conform
to the intention Of the founders. The
Constitution fixed the term of no Of
flcer in the executive branch Of the
