LOUIS JOLIET

ITO LOUIS JOLIET, born Septem-
i Der 81, 1645, belongs the honor OF
having been the first white man to ex-
plore the upper part of the Missis-
sippi river. Many historians claim he
explored more of the river than any
other man of that time, taking the
honors away from both La Sale and
De Soto. Beyond doubt, he was first
to establish the fact that the great
river did not run into the South sea,
as 1t was believed in Canada.
Joliet was the son of a wagon
maker, better educated than most Of
his time, since the family had de-
cided to make him priest. But he
turned into a fur trader and mer-
chant, instead, and made many daring
trips into unexplored wildernesses.
So great was his reputation, that he
was chosen to lead the expedition
that was to go down the Mississippi,
Father Marquette being one of the
party. Through the Illinois and Wis
consin rivers they travelled and final
ly came into the Mississippi and went
on to the Missouri. At this point, the
Indians assured them it was but a
ten days. trip to the river mouth, 80
they concluded the great stream ran
into the Gulf of Mexico and turned
back. Crossing lake in a canoe, all
Jolliet's maps were lost, and much
valuable information destroyed.
His next trip was to explore the
Hudson bay region and then the
coast Of Labrador for seal fishing. He
wanted to COLOMBO the beautiful val
ley Of the Mississippi, but the Cana
dian government gave him no encour-
agement He died wealthy and hon.
ored in Canada in 100.

Live Stock Notes

If good strong filters Of pigs are
to be expected brood sows must have
other feed than corn.
When sows are carrying filters, they
need large amounts of protein and
muscle and BODYBUILDING feeds.
Tankage is very highly protein
concentrate, which is fed to furnish
the protein to balance up hog rations.
1t also furnishes great many Of the
necessary minerals. -
No farm is complete without hogs.
1t needs few brood sows and should
breed them.
Careful and systematic management
of the sow and litter will greatly in
crease the profits in the hog-raising
industry.
Experimental work shows that corn
and tankage in self-feeders, not al
lowing the young pigs to become
hungry, is just as economical q
method as can be followed.

CLARK MONUMENT
 DEDICATED TODAY
Bradford, Vt, HonOrs Spanish
 War Naval Hero

Bradford. Vt. Oct. 12 Pl-Old records of the navy department were reopened here today by Secretary Wilbur to trace the sturdy patriot ism that marked the life of Rear Admiral Charles Edgar Clark, under whose command the battleship Ore gon surged over 15,000 miles of sea in 1898 to play her decisive role in the battle of Santiago.
 MT. Wilbur delivered the principal address at the dedication of memo rial statue to Admiral Clark In the town of his birth. He recalled that the valor and determination which marked the battleship commander had appeared when a magazine eX- ploded at the Mare Island navy yard in 1892, when fourteen persons were killed, and Commander Clark was among the first on the scene.
 In his report Commander Clark told of smoke rising from an ad- joining house, stored with all kinds of explosives. 'I undertook to ex- tinguish any fire inside with the other hose" he wrote. Going in side, was unable to discover any flame"
 Yet the fire danger had been there, the secretary said, and later charred boxes filled with great quantities Of powder were removed from this magazine.
 Mir. Wilbur also read two letters written by Admiral Clark to the navy department regarding rewards for the officers who served in the Spanish-American war. They show ed that twice the Oregon's captain had been forced to make momentous decisions on that voyage, once when he reached Rio Janeiro and was Jeff to decide whether he should remain there in safety or dare the chance of single-handed combat with tho whole Spanish fleet.
 The letters were significant fol what they omitted. Mir. Wilbur said
 .No claim Is made for courage ol skill, or of those qualities we her' honor today" he added, but onl! of his high sense of responsihilit! for decisions affecting not only hi ship, but the welfare and success o his country
