Bad Checks Cost
Millions q Year

The actual passing of forged or
raised check at the bank is work for
| the "presenters." They must be men
or women of presence, of resourceful-
| ness and some degree of acting skill.
The Importance Of this latter accom-
| plishment Is illustrated by the case of
presenter In an interior town who
one summer day rushed into bank.
hatless and coatless, and presented a
check made out to bearer" for several
hundred dollars, explaining that the
drawer, his employer and substan-
tial merchant of the town, had but a
few minutes before received wire
dying mother in town several hun
dred miles distant. The merchant, he
explained, had hurried home to pack
bag and would go direct to the sta
ton, where the clerk would meet him
with the money for his travelling ex-
penses.
The clerk begged the teller to make
haste as his employer would barely
have time to catch the train. The
teller knew that the merchant never
drew checks to bearer, but the sigma
ture was undoubtedly genuine, the
haste and distress Of the clerk seemed
quite as genuine. and he hesitated to
make inquiries which probably would
result In the merchant missing his
train. He decided to pay the money
to the messenger, who Immediately set
out post haste In the direction of the
railroad station. That was the last
seen Of him. The merchant had received
no summons to his mothers deathbed,
was not making an impromptu journey
and had no such employee as the
"clerk' who got the money on a stolen
and raised check.
Forged His Own Pardon.
In the halcyon days of forgery which
have furnished the legends of this
branch of crime, ]. ii. Stoddard was
the hero" Of many picturesque ex-
polts, one Of which resulted In his
sentence to term In the Tennessee
state prison at Nashville. He was a
man of resources and invoked the
same art that had got him into trouble
to get him out Stoddard forged the
signature of the governor of Tennes-
see to document pardoning him, had
1t presented to the warden by con-
federate then at liberty, and walked
out of the prison gates to freedom.
In those days forgers did not de-
pend so much upon mass production
as upon a single coup for their profits.
One of the best examples of kill
ing was that of one Sheer, or Slifer,
in 1892. Slifer bought four drafts of
SIS each at four banks in Lansing,
Mich. He raised each draft to 81 800
and cashed them at banks in Detroit,

Chicken Flock Need Not
Be a Nuisance in Towns

Neighbors frequently object to the
keeping of poultry in towns and cities.
most complaints being against the
vociferous rooster and disagreeable
odors. In some cities and towns there
are regulations to prevent or control
poultry keeping, but the United States
Department of Agriculture says that
the flock need not be nuisance.
There will be no annoyance from odors
II the dropping boards are cleaned
daily and the yards are kept reason
ably clean. There Is no necessity for
keeping rooster unless the owner In
tends to hatch chicks, and in that case
the rooster should be disposed Of as
soon as the hens have been set. A
flock without a male will produce just
as many eggs. and, what is more, the
eggs will be infertile and will keep
better.

Taking Tail From Lambs
Not Difficult Operation

The time TO take the tail from the
lamb is In its second week of life. The
operation Is not difficult and docking
the lambs simply removes something
unnecessary to the lamb. Two men
and sharp knife or a docking iron
are all that Is necessary. Let one man
hold the lamb, while the other To-
Gates the joint In the tail by feeling
on the inside. Push back the loose
skin so that dap will grow over the
stub and cut the tail off at joint
about one and one-half inches from
the body. The cut Is simply made
with sharp knife. In which case a
stout cord tightly tied about the stump
.,lose to the body will stop nneces-
sary bleeding. This cord should be
removed In eight or ten hours so that
there will be no sloughing.
A much better way of docking the
lamb is the use Of hot docking irons,
soaring the tail of with an iron heat
ed to cherry red. This cauterizes
the wound and prevents bleeding.

Free Choice System Of
Mash Feeding to Fowls

A study Of the free choice system Of
mash feeding for chickens made by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture at it's experiment farm To-
Gated at Beltsville, Md, showed that
the best results and highest egg pro-
duction are obtained when hens are
allowed to select their own mash con-
stituents. 1t was found that hens Sc
lected a mash composed of &C parts
cornmeal, 20 parts meat scrap, parts
wheat bran and parts wheat mid
dlings. This mash gives best results
with Leghorns, and less stimulating
mash, containing more bran and
ground oats, with less meat scrap, has
given better results with general-pur-
pose breeds.

farrowed .............s5S 242
These records serve to show that
fully one-fourth to one-third Of the
feed and other expense in keeping
sOws Is lost before weaving, by not
giving the sow proper feed and care
during CESSATION or proper farrowing
quarters, the department points out.
BY far the major share Of losses in
pigs is due to improper handling and
feeding and not to disease.
Sows running on pastures while
suckling pigs saved the largest litters.
Sows that were fed the following
quantities of feed, per one hundred
pounds liveweight monthly, during the
CESSATION period, farrowed the largest
litters: 45 pounds Of corn. 10 pounds
Of oats, Is pounds of tankage. Tried
sows that had produced pigs previous
ly seemed In this study to show ten
dency to produce larger litters than
untried gifts.
Cause Of Losses.
A similar study upon 1874 spring
pigs produced on these same farms in
the spring of 1921 showed that $40 Of
every 1000 pigs farrowed died before
the date of weaving. The important
causes Of losses in the spring of 1921,
as in 1922, were pigs laid on by the
moAer sow, and those born dead or so
weak they could not get up to suckle
The 1921 pigs, however, were bothered
more with necrotic enteritis than were
those In the spring Of 1922.
The study indicates that barring
fluctuations In prices Of feeds and the
occurrence Of disease, the number Of
thrifty pigs produced per SOW more
than any other factor influences the
cost Of producing pork. All the care
in feeding possible after weaving the
pigs can very seldom overcome the
production cost due to small litters,
the department says. The figures show
that the majority Of sows last winter
had carrying charge of SIS to $25
per head, which covered the cost Of
carrying them while producing lit
ter of pigs; with a large share Of the
sows this meant carrying charges for
twelve months.

Champion Pig Raised
by Minnesota Youth

Torrance L. Hagen. lad living In
Belview, Redwood county, Minnesota,
raised pig on fifty by fifty-foot lot,
which was made grand champion bar
row over all breeds at the Junior Live
Stock show held at South st. Paul last
winter. By exercising good care. with
the aid of>9 well-bred animal he was
able to overcome the handicaps OF
town, and win over all pig club boys
and girls Of Minnesota.
His purebred Poland China barrow
weighed 450 pounds when he left home.
The L'Anse sentinel., 1923-06-29

and when sold at the stock yards after
the show. he weighed 430 pounds. The
pig was farrowed March 8, 1922.
During the 146-day period from May
to September "a the pig gained POT
pounds or fraction over two pounds
per day.
The lads records show that the bar
rows cost of production was five
cents per pound. A st. Paul packer
bought him at auction for 60 cents per
pound, the check amounting to S25S.
Besides the boy won gold medal, sill

Well Prepared Field Is

It Is requisite II the farmer Is go
ing to have good success with Sudan
grass that he plant in well prepared

is no reason why It should be treated
shabbily. Fall blowing or fall listing
of fields intended for It, with careful

means that much higher yields, and
this Is generally the basis for flgur-
