 Letter of Protest.
 Hong Kong. June 27 R-Forty leading American residents of Hong Kong have addressed a letter to the Associated Press correspondent here, disapproying of the action of certain members of the faculty and student body of Canton Christian college in making public an Serroneous statement relative to the shooting opposite shameen in Canton, June 23.
 The first statement which emanat- ed from the college said that investi- gation by faculty and student eye witnesses to the Shameen shooting showed that foreigners started the gunfire on Chinese paraders. Later anothe investigation by the college authorities revealed the first states ment was erroneous and a personal investigation by the vice president of the college revealed firing was started by the Chinese.
 Indignation on the part of Ameri- cans here was called forth because of first statements. containing the erroneous statement that foreigners started firing, was heralded as an ap peal to the American people by Americans in Canton. This was due to a garbling of the original state ment issued from the college.
 The letter received by the Associ- ated Press today was signed by W. H. Camerson, local manager of the Standard oil Company of New York. It follows:
 "On account of the serious implica tions and consequences involved in the statement of American members of the foreign staff of Canton Chris tian college as expressed in resolu- tions orlginallysprinted in the Can- ton Gazette, M, the undersigned members of the American communi- ty in Hong Kong. desire to place on record our emphatic disapprovai of the actions of the parties concerned whose entire lack of Judgment and restraint, at such time, we consid. CT depiorable. Although retraction, has been made and published, which places the situation in It's true light we wish to leave the Hong Kong community in no doubt as to our attitude"

Alfalfa Versus Glover
for Pasture for Swine

Alfalfa excelled red clover as a pas
ture for hogs in recent comparisons
made at the Indiana station. Alfalfa
proved capable of carrying more hogs
per acre than clover and produced
slightly larger gains with less corn
than was required on clover pasture.
The showing Of clover pasture, how
ever. was very satisfactory. The two
pastures carried Is to 20 spring pigs
to the acre when the pigs were full
fed and about seven pigs when limited
grain feeding was practiced.
In one test pigs We're fed a limited
ration of two pounds of grain daily
for each 100 pounds live weight. Part
of the pigs grazed alfalfa and part
clover pasture. Gains made by the
two lots were practically Identical, but
the pigs on alfalfa required only 243
pounds Of corn per 100 pounds of gain,
compared to 255 pounds for the pigs
on clover pasture.
In a comparison Of pigs which were
fulfilled corn and tankage on the two
pastures the pigs on alfalfa outgained
those on clover by Slight margin
and required five pounds less corn and
four and one-half pounds less tankage
than the pigs which ran on clover pas
ture.

FORAGE CROPS ARE
SWINE NECESSITY

Experience has shown that forage
crops are necessary for growing pigs
economically. So states William G.
Shelley, assistant animal husbandman
at the New Jersey State College of
Agriculture, who continues:
"Pasturing Ion green forage saves a
great amount of feed, allows plenty of
fresh air. gives the animal exercise
and helps to keep the quarters sani-
tary.
Where it thrives alfalfa makes one
Of the best permanent pastures for
swine, as it can be pastured from early
spring to late summer and is high in
protein and mineral matter. Since
heavy pasturage is injurious to the
crop it is well to restrict the number
of pigs, allowing the plant to grow and
be good for two or three cuttings of
hay.
Red clover also makes an excellent
forage. Pigs should not be turned on
1t until it has reached a good growth,
as too early pasturing is likely to kill
1t out. 1t can be pastured until ii be-
comes woody in the summer, when it
contains too much fiber to be taken
care of by the pigs digestive tract.
Sweet clover is another Ieguminous
forage which should be pastured
rather closely, as this encourages new
growth and hinders woodiness.
Rape is unsurpassed as an annual
forage crop for swine. 1t is palatable,
succulent and high in protein and ash.
AS 1t may be sown both early and late
In the season, forage may be provided
at any time in the summer. Pigs
should not be turned on it until it is
about ten inches high If rape is not
pastured too closely growth will con-
tinue until fall.
Field peas, sown either alone or
With oats or rape, is very satisfac-
tory summer forage crop, as it is
legume and compares with alfalfa and
clover in its protein content.
RYE furnishes supply of green,
succulent feed material in the late fall
and early spring and is therefore of
great benefit to the breeding herd
especially the brood sow nursing fall
and spring litters.
"A number of other forage crops,
such as soy beans. bluegrass and even
some weeds are relished by swine. The
point for the grower ito keep in mind
is that every bit Of green material CON
sumed by the pig means a saving Of
some grain in growing that pig for

SUCCULENT CABBAGE
HAS LONG HISTORY
It's Origin Lost in the Mists
of Antiquity.

Should the history of the cabbage
ever be written, it may prove to be
unexpectedly thrilling. Remarkable
facts concerning that humble vegetable
have been discovered by Prof. Rug
giles Gates, the botanist:
"Cabbages, kales, caulif1owers and
brussels sprouts" says the professor,
native of the coast and the south of
England. The cabbage as we know it
was the first development of the wild
plant. and from it appeared the cauli-
flower and the sprout.
''The origin of the species is lost in
antiquity, but the Romans appear to
have cultivated it. The remarkable
thing is that each type entered more
or less suddenly into the vegetable
garden.
A gardener in these ancient days
may have planted a cabbage on a GER
tain spot and have wakened up some
morning to find a cauliflower or a
stalk of sprouts in its place.
There was no gradual development
1t happened spontaneously In the
case of the cauliflower, there was an
infiorescence, and the green flower be-
came white, succulent and feshy.
though not to the degree that we
know it today.
The sprout was the result of the
cabbage, instead of combining its eff
forts to the attainment Of one large
bloom, determining to multiply itself
into numerous clump of tender
heads
1T is in this way that we now think
evolution has taken place-the pro-
duction of new and marked varieties
with fully developed characters.
What causes the transformation?
Interesting developments may result
from the experiments. Why not. for
example, a 'caulisprout' from the par
ent cabbage. or perhaps 'carnip'
from the carrot or the turnip?"
"As food the cabbage has long
and honorable career" says the COM
missioner of health, New York city,
1T has graced the tables of kings. The
favorite dish of Emperor Pompey was
cabbage. l have no doubt that many
another ruler, if he admitted the truth,
would confess a yearning for corned
beef and cabbage. It must be terrible
to live on ambrosia and nectar!
"The cabbage is a valuable food be-
cause it is rich in lime and potash
Humans require roughage, coarse
indigestible material, just as animals
do. Every farmer car testify to the
necessity of such foods for his stock.
Every dietary expert agrees that
roughage must be supplied if we are
to be healthy.
Cabbage is important, then, be-
cause it supplies lime and because it
furnishes roughage. When it is served
with delicious dressing it makes fit
dish for any table.
I'm Scotland the oatmeal is cooked
in the cabbage water. making a dish
called "kale broge." In this way the
mineral elements are saved.
Almost everybody can eat raw
cabbage, but the cooked vegetable dis
agrees with many. AS a matter of
fact, too, when the cabbage is boiled
much of its valuable material is car
ried away. Steaming, instead of boil
ing, guards against the calcium loss. :"

WOLVES Come Back

Wolves have been increasing for
several years, especially in the north
ern states. When the price of wolf
skins ran as high as $50 the animals
were hunted with enthusiasm while
today, with the value of skins less than
half what it was, the wolves are often
allowed TO increase. The danger from
wolves is especially great in Canada
and these cross the border into the
United States in large numbers, prey
ing upon the cattle and sheep and do
ing great damage. The gray timber
wolf is the commonest species,
