The Greatest Human Need

This world is not In need of brains
1t could afford to lose some
If those who have them took some
pains
Now and again to use some.

IN MEMORIAM.

In sad but loving remembrance of
our dear father Henry C. Outten, who
departed this life two years ago Dec.
S, 1923.
Our loving father who suffered so
long has left us and gone into the
Great Beyond. He was always so low
ing and kind.
We long to cross that River, long to
rest upon that shore, there to see and
know and love him with the Saviour
evermore.
A precious one from US is gone,
A voice we heard is stilled,
A place is vacant in our homes,
Which never can be filled.
Fold him oh! Father in thine arms
and let him henceforth be a messen-
ger of love between our human hearts
and the gone but not forgotten.
By his daughter
MRS. MAY PHILLIPS.

AGRICULTURE

The farmer who has 10 to 100 good
hogs on his farm at this time should
feel mighty proud of the fact as they
are growing into money every day.
The hog always puts bigger smile
on the farmers face than any other
product from farm because he knows
he always has a ready market at
good price for hi sproduct. Hogs have
saved many a farm by paying the
taxes, the interest and have kept it
running. The farmer who stays by
the brood SOW year in and year out
and gives the business thoughtful at
tention has no cause to worry.
The one feature of the great swine
business most outstanding is the no
ticeable fact that good sires have
been the greatet progress in any of
the several prominent breeds. Under
any condition good sire is at least
one half the herd and a poor sire is
all the herd. The poor sire will effect
every litter unfavorably to some ex-
tent no matter how good the dam.)
The good sire is essential even with
good sows for best results in mating.
The ultimate end of the "Porker
is the pork barrel. Regardless of his
lineage, regardless of the blue ribbons
he may carry, and the aristocratic
blood that may course through his
veins, in the end he is apt to meet a
tragic death and his carcass go to
fill the larder of hungry world.
Granting that the preceding state
ments are true, then the following
ones become equally true; that the ul-
innate aim Of the pure breeder should
be to produce type of hog with the
breeding back of it that will most
economically convert the raw prod
ucts of the farm into the finished ar
ticles, ready for the pork barrel. l
say breeding back of the type be-
cause every breeder knows that he
has in his herd certain blood lines, or
certain individuals which produce uni
formly large, strong, even filters Of
pigs that will go into the feed lot and
make hogs of themselves in less time
and more economically than other
pigs of the same age, under the same
identical conditions. Too often we lose
sight of this important factor in our
consideration of pedigree.
Just now, when we are down to
rock bottom in all lines of business is
an opportune time for the breeder to
thoughtfully and seriously size up the
herd and ask himself this question:
Gam I producing hogs that will go in
to the feed lot and outfeed my neigh
bors grades or cross-breeds ?" "Wili
my pure breds reach a remarkable
age on less feed and sell for more
dollars per hundred than his 2"
If these questions cannot be answer
ed in the affirmative, the breeder is
not doing a service to his community
and becomes a real detriment to the
advancement of the breed. And the
business that does not serve, whether
it be raising hogs or selling shoes,
must ultimatly fail.
We must produce the hog the packer
wants. Not the all legs, fish back,
slim bodied, razor back, extreme type,
but the strong backed, deep sided,
active, smooth, we'll boned type with
well sprung rib, deep wide chest and
strong heart girth. With such type
good breeds of hogs will easily retain
the supremacy in the feed lot and be
acclaimed as the mortgage litter of
the farms.

Trenton. N.

It is charged that the business though solvent is being operated at q loss and in a manner not to the best in terests of the stockholders.
 In a second suit brought by the same plaintiff jointly against the company and Charles Dana Gibson, who holds the position of president, an investigation is asked to deter mine whether the services of Gib- son art actually worth the S50,0 which he draws each year. The claim is advanced that his annual salary of $20.0O0 together with s3o,- 900 a year for a series of 52 draw ings is grossly cXorbitant.
 Should an investigation show that Gibson is receiving more than his services merit, it is asked that he be directed to turn back the amount held to be excessive. In explaining her failure ot lodge complaint with the board of directors the petition charges that the board is under control of Gibson and would refuse to consider the protest.

DANISH-AMERICAN TRADE | SHOWS RETURN TO NORMAL
Former Market Attractive Ono For United states Products Be-
 cause of Increased Activities

Copenhagen Feb. 20.-Writing in the Nationaltidcnde on trade be- tween Denmark and the United States during 1924, Dr. John Dyne- ly Prince, the American minister to Denmark, says that although the figures for the trade between the two countries for 1924 are not yet complete, it appears certain that the mutual trade has increased dur ing the past year and is probably now at what might be called a new normal following the hectic spurt in 1919 and 1920,
 -"The Danish market Is an attrac- tive one for American products" {" Mir. Prince says, because of Dep- marks increased industrial activi- ties, the high standard of living within the country, and the well main tained purchasing power of it's peo- pie. These factors, together with the almost complete elimination of some competitive elements, and also a Sl ON LII OL ulIcCt COlillHefClul IlltE- course between the two countries, have tended to increase the partici- patton of the United States in the Danish import trade from 10 per cent in 1913 to 13 percent in 1923. In fact, the United States now fol- lows Germany and Great Britain in order of imDOrtance as SIIDDlier of the Danish market"
