MINERAL FEED FOR
HOGS MEETS FAVOR

| Mineral feed for hogs getting the
ordinary corn-belt swine ratlons has
shown Its dollars and cents value In
experimental work done at the Iowa
state college. Even where growing
pigs had access to good pasture such
as rape or bluegrass the benefits of
minerals have been outstanding. The
addition Of 20 per cent of tankage to
the ration Of pigs on rape pasture was
not sufficient to supply the necessary
mineral matter. In case the protein
supplement should be soy-bean or lin
seed Oilmeal in place Of tankage, the
mineral deficiency would be still
greater
John Evvard, the man In charge Of
the investigation, recommends that a
suitable mineral mixture be fed all
classes and grades Of swine. If pos
sible, feed 1t in self-feeder prefera-
bly, inside and easily accessible Such
a mixture may be composed of the
following: Common salt, 20 pounds;
timely ground raw bonemeal or steamed
bonemeal, 40 pounds, and finely ground
hiSH SdiSiulu lllHtSlOlc, WOOu dSlleS,
finely ground oyster shells, clam shells
or lime thoroughly air slaked, 40
pounds To each 100 pounds of mix
ture add 10 pounds of sulphur, If 1t is
desired, and from one-half to one
ounce of potassium iodide. Mix
thoroughly.
Besides the immediate value realized
from feeding minerals to hogs there
has been found to be a cumulative
value In the case of breeding stock. At
the Iowa experiment station the first
generation of sows fed minerals
showed but slight advantage over gifts
fed no minerals. The second genera
ton showed some positive signs of
benefit, chiefly In an increased height
and length. In the third generation
the advantages were plainly evident in
added gains In weight. 1t appears that
there is tendency for the benefits of
minerals to show up to greater degree
as the generations unfold.
For breeding swine the following
minerals mixed together are recon-
mended: Common salt, spent bone
black, wood ashes, sulphur, high cal |
cium limestone, glauber's salt, epson
salt, copperas and potassium iodide.

Women are also entering the CONNER

Years ago in the merry days Of the
English tavern there was a turmoil
among radicals over the poisoning" Of
the ale drunk by the common people.
The trouble was caused when some one
learned that in making ale sulphuric
acid, made from Spanish pyrites, was
used and that this contained arsenic.
1t was a tempest in teapot, however,
because 1t would have taken five bar
rels of ale to contain enough arsenic
to hurt one individual.

Vermin Discourage Hogs
From Returning Profit

Vermin such as worms, lice, and the
like, may keep the hogs from growing
and cost the farmer In dollars and
cents much more than the time and
expense of fighting them, according TO
the New York State College of Agri-
culture at Ithaca.
In fact, the college goes further and
says that most farms where hogs have
been kept for any length Of time on
the same premises are infested with
parasites which will give trouble If
they are not controlled.
There are several kinds of worms
that infest hogs, and each kind re-
quires different treatment If hogs
are suspected Of being infested with
worms, the owners should get in touch
with a veterinarian, the college states.
One farmer of which the college
learned had about 70 head Of pigs
averaging between so and rs pounds.
These pigs became stunted and made
very little gains, and some of them
died. Upon inspection they were
found badly infested with round worms
and with lice. They were then sue
cessfully treated as advised by vet
erinarian.
These pigs were also treated for lice
a prepared dip in large barrel being
used. The pigs were small enough to
be easily handled and were immersed
In the barrel of dip. This treatment
was repeated In a weeks time to get
the lice or nits that were left from
the previous dipping.
They were then transferred to
fresh pasture where they were fin.
ished for the early fall market.

Blood is Poisoned
By a Torpid Liven
Deadly toxins cause diseases Of
heart, kidneys and create
premature old age

All the blood in our bodies passes
through the liver every Is minutes.
The liver is the blood's purifier.
Our blood is constantly poisoned
by body toxins formed in food
waste, and when the liver becomes
weak, or torpid. our systems are at
once tainted by impure blood. These
are the poisons that, if not de-
stroyed by the liver, cause diseases
of the heart. kidneys, blood vessels
and create premature old age.
Nature gives quick warning of a
torpid liver. You have sudden sick
headaches, dizzy spells; your stom-
-ach is acid from sour bile, your skin
turns sallow, botchy.
Doctors know the liver cannot be
regulated by drugs, but a safe Ma
ture substance has been discovered
which will act directly on the liver.
The discovery is purified OK gall.
Get from your druggist a package
of Dioxol Each tablet contains ten
drops of purified OK gall In "a

moved. Your liver will be regulated.

quantities. Music is music, many
brands of it. The more music an
individual can absorb the better off
he will be.
Paul Whiteman talks to his au-
diences in a common tongue. He
has elevated jazz music to the realm
of the concert stage. He does this
by using expert musicians and solo-
lists; he goes in for new jazz mu-
steal expressions; he takes classical
movements and forces them into jazz
tempo and, above all, he uses show
manship
Showmanship. That's the thing I
like best in Whiteman's concerts.
He knows how to make the lights
keep in tune with the color" of
his melody.
That is well represented by the
way Whteman directed and pre-
scented "Emeralda,'' an Irish fan
tasy, which presented Morton
Downey as a vocal soloist. Downey
sang a sweet Irish refrain, which
caused the audience to stage the
first big ovation of the evening.
When the solo starts, the stage is
in complete darkness, with the ex-
ception of a spotlight playing above
the singer. AS the beauty of the
song increases, so does the spotlight.
The effect is magic. Whiteman
knows how to dress up" a number
as no other director does.
The Hits
I enjoyed the Irish number the
best and the other Downey solo
number, June Night" done as an
encore. The audience took Michael
Pingatore to heart because of his
banjo playing. He is a wonder. All
of the solo work of Ross German, a
wizard on the saxophone and kin
bred instruments. resulted in
