More Careful Study of
Feeding Problem Needed

A litter of twelve pigs, six and SIX.
on one SOW is heavy drain, so B. w.
Fairbanks, live stock extension spe-
cialist, told western slope farmer
who showed him the pigs, which had
been sired by q pure bred Duroc OF
excellent breeding They should have
been weaned late in June, but were
still on the SOW July 10. Starting them
on grain before weaving was advised (;
a little corn. some shorts and plenty
of buttermilk and pasture for exercise.
Then after weaving feed a mixture of
corn, 40 pounds, oats 80 pounds and
middlings 80 pounds. This should be
handled until the pigs get up to $50
pounds. After that a self-feeder may
be used.
Another litter of eight, from pure
bred sire, was looked over. Here the
problem was of another sort. These
pigs had evidently been weaned too
early, at seven weeks. They should
have been left with the sow at least
another week. They were being fed
middlings and skim milk and they
weighed only half a ton, when they
should have been wen beyond that
point in order to stand any show for
a ton-litter contest prize. Here the
trouble was undertaking.
"The ton-litter contest emphasizes
the need for more careful study of the
feeding problem" says Mr.. Fairbanks.

Merriwether passed him In the road.
He did not return the latter's salute.
It was evident that the general had

talk with you this morning. he began.
"'Yes,' I answered.
"A British officer has come up the

CHAPTER XVIII
As an Army With Banners.


The American army had been sold
by Arnold The noble ideal 1t had
cherished, the blood it had given. the
bitter hardships 1t had suffered-tor-
ture In the Wilderness, famine In the
Highlands. long marches of half
naked men In mid-winter, massacres
at Wyoming and Cherry Valley-all
this had been bartered away. like a
shipload Of turaips, to satisfy the
greed of one man. Again thirty pieces

bitter way to its Calvary? Major
Andre, the adjutant general Of Sir
Henry Cllnton's large force In New
York, was with the traitor when ne
rowed from the ship to the west shore
of the Hudson and went into the bush
under the observation of Solomon
with his spy-glass. Arnold was to re-
ceive a command and large pay In
the British army. The consideration
had been the delivery of maps show
ing the positions of Washingson's men
and the plans of his forts and other
defenses, especially those of Forts
Putnam and Clinton and Battery
Knox. Much other information was
put in the hands of the British Off
Ger, including the prospective move
ments of the commander In chief. He

Ventilation for Hogs

The average hog house has doors
along the side and cupola at the
top which is supposed to take care Of
any necessary ventilation. Cold air
coming in at the doors strikes the
hogs direct and continues to pass over

Hogs Avoid Flu

1t Is a striking fact that hogs fol-
lowing steers and that sheep in open
sheds are seldom II ever affected by

Ing why the disease does not spread
to other herds which are just across

the herd not affected is being housed
in open sheds with steers or else they
are in properly ventilated houses
which have plenty of bedding.

NEW DISTRIBUTOR
 FOR HIJPMOBILE.
Packard Motors Go. An nounce Acquisition Of
 Birmingham Franchise

An item of more than usual interest to motor car owners is the announce ment made today that what is known as the Hupmobile division of Packard Motors company will handle the Hup- mobile in Birmingham in the future.
 The new distributors will occupy the same building formerly occupied by Motor Sales corporation at the corner of. Avenue D and Twentieth street where Hupmobile sales and service will be maintained with the addition of new Packard cars which will be sold from the nev location as we'll as from the Packard place on Magnolia avenue. The new arrangement does not af- feet the Packard Motors, in anyway, except that Jim Mercer, who has been salsemanager for Packard Motors, will now be found at the Hupmobile di- vision as manager. Mir. Mercer will specialize in the sale of Packard cars and invites his friends to call on him at the new location where they will find a warm welcome. Many are already congratulating him on the change which is in the nature of a promotion.
 : c. NJ. Charlie" Kidd, who has been salesmanager for Motor Sales corpora ton, will continue in this capacity with the new concern giving the organiza- tion the benefit of his wide experience and ability. Stocks of parts and fa- cilities for service will be increased.
 In connection with the change, R. A. Bailey, IT,, vice president, gave out the following statement. We wish to take this occasion to thank all Hup- mobile owners for the business en- trusted to us and to bespeak their con tinued patronage for the Hupmobile di- vision of the Packard Motors. These gentlemen are in position to continue or to even improve upon the high grade service which we feel we have all ways rendered, and Hupmobile own CTS can rely upon them to carry out the very liberal policies of the Hupp Motors company"

Oil that collects in little puddles in the depressions in the cement floors of the garage should be removed. be- cause the tires are almost sure to get into it, and if you let the section of the shoe become soaked with oil the affected rubber will soften and undue wear will follow.

STEERS SEASY. ON BALLOON TIRES Greater Ease And Stabili- ty Is Found In New
 Hudson

With full size balloon tires, the new Hudson cars are nevertheless steering with greater ease and stability than any previous super-sixes, according to A. R. Pryor, Hudson distributor for north Alabama territory. This is due, he declares, to a newly, designed steer ing mechanism which. has been incor- porated.
 When we heard that Hudson had gone in for balloons" said Pryor, I've expected wonderfully fine and easy riding results, but we wondered if there wouldn't be parking and steering trou- bles. We had heard gossip of such troubles.
 = We discovered that the Hudsons, while essentially the same cars as pre- viously, have been 50 redesigned that all these supposed difficulties have been 6Earcome. Hudson did not rush into uanoon tires, but took plenty of time to experiment on all the steps neces- Bary to make them safe and convenient under all conditions. o
 Having driven this new Hudson with many owners of previous super -sixes, l can join them in saying that the bal loon-tired Hudson is the steadiest and easiest steering car on the road we nave ever nad. The mechanical changes which bring this about are original, simple, exclusive and perfectly effec- tive.
 With the new lenders, the clean cut and low-hung liness and the bal loon tires, the Hudson Super-six is one of the handsomest cars I have ever seen. It is delight to the eye. There are many new fefinenaents. 5s 5
 The new coach would be marvel ous value even if Hudson had not de- cided to cap the climax by bringing it out at the first enclosed car in mo- tordom's history to be#offered at the same identical price as . standard open car.
 Hudson sales continue in their sen. sationally rapil ,up-curye. The super six is now enjoying its$biggest volume we ever knew. The coach is 75 per cent of our Hudson business, yet the old standby demand for the Hudson sedans and the super.sik open cars is also running ahead of EfeAyious years The Hudson factory is TOW at it's high est point of super-six production. yet we are actually short of cars.',
