BROOD SOWS DEMAND
SPECIAL ATTENTION

Those who are expecting fall filters
should pay special attention to the
feeding OF their brood sows. A SOW
that Is not properly fed during the
period of pregnancy cannot be expect
ed to do her best at narrowing time.
The tendency is to rely too much
upon corn as an exclusive feed for the
sows. There are no harmful proper
ties In corn; II Is a good feed so far
as Its fattenlng qualities go, but II
is not suitable for muscle and bone
building. 1t is not necessary to ex-
clude corn from the brood sow's ra-
tions-not at all; but II is necessary
to feed with 1t something that is COM
paratively rich in protein, such as
tankage. oil meal or shorts, the former
being preferable in most cases be-
cause cheaper-not cheaper per ton
but cheaper per pound of protein
content.
A hog needs q certain amount Of
animal protein, and since IL can nearly
always be purchased cheaper in tank
age than in any other form, why not
use this product to greater extentf
brood SOW that is fed one pound Of
tankage with each peck Of corn, while
on pasture, will produce healthy, Wig
orous pigs.
A year ago last spring narrowing
records were kept on SO Kansas farms
by the experiment station of that
state. From these records 1t was
found that 263 sows that were fed
corn properly balanced with tankage,
skim milk, oil meal or alfalfa, far
rowed 2,669 pigs, or an average of
10.1 pigs per litter. These sows also
had good surroundings and were well
cared for. OF these pigs "a per cent
were raised to weaving time. In other
words SIS pigs per litter were thrifty
when old enough to wean.
Another lot of 1876 sows, on IL
farms, narrowed an average Of 7.2 pigs
per SOW and raised 3.S pigs per litter.
These sows had received practically
nothing but corn. The unbalanced ra-
ton decreased the size of the weaned
filters by 40 per cent. Such results
are not uncommon; on the contrary,
they invariably follow the feeding Of
corn alone to pregnant sows. A SOW
can no more produce muscle and bone
out of corn. which Is deficient In the
out of which they must
be produced, than can a mason make
mortar out of sand and water. One
is as impossible as the other.
Feed a balanced ration to the brood
sows now while they are carrying
their filters and you will have lot
Of strong pigs this fall.

A Slip Up

Gende little four-year-old Jane is
a model child as rule, but now and
then she "slips up" She has been
forbidden to take a spoonful of sugar
out of the sugar bowl and eat it as
children are apt to do. One day the
temptation was too strong, and while
her mothers back was turned she
helped herself to some sugar. Her
mother turned around, shocked and
indignant.
"Why. Jane. whatever made you do
that?"
But, honey, didn't know you were
going to turn round" was the gentle
answer.-Indianapo News.

Derivation of Yankee

harrington gives an etymology which
will be new to Connecticut readers.
1.-THE name of Yankee is derived from
the Yankow Indians formerly settled
In Connecticut. That race now scarce
ly exists. To put an end to the wars
that subsisted between those natives
and the European settlers. laws were
ordained which served to incorporate
them, marriages being allowed"
Reader, have you oerchance inherited

the murder of his wife, whom he
married when living in Wickenburg
about year ago. The horrible de-
tails of her death this week by a

with grave suspicion to Hutchinson
and his unhappy marriage. While
mere many facts were repeated to
show that his actions on the night
OF the murder were such as to in

League Plank
To Be Presented
TOG. O. p. Convention

New York, June S.-The League of
Nations, Non Partisan Association,
of which John H. Clarke, former JUS
tice of the United States Supreme
court, is president, announced today
that it would present tomorrow to
the Republican National convention
a proposed platform declaration in
favor of greater cooperation by the
United States with the League of
Nations.
The proposed plank reads as fol-
lows:
"A sound forward looking policy Of
international cooperation entirely
consonant with the history, institu-
tions and national aspirations of the
United States has always been the
ideal of the Republican party for the
purpose of promoting our national
economic welfare and international
peace and good will.
I'VE point to the Washington limi-
tation of ornaments conference and
the treaties that grew out of 1t; to
the approval of Presidents Harding
and Coolidge of adherence to the per-
manent court of international justice
upon appropriate conditions, and to
a progressive cooperation with the
league of nations in its economic and
humanitarian activities as evidence
of the devotion of our party to world
peace and.
1--WE pledge the new administra-
ton to a strong progressive program
of cooperation with the other nations
through the League of Nations pro-
vided the covenant of the League
can be SO Americanized as not to
surrender to other nations our In
dependence of judgement and actions
with respect to American or other
questions involving our vital inter-
csts and national honor"
