litter of pigs to market weight rapidly
and successfully appears to be more than
a mere matter of chance with G. Carlton
GLAND. of Olney. Montgomery county. who
for the second successive year has carried
off the honors in the l500-pound litter
contest sponsored by the Maryland Swine
Growers Association.
Tabulation of the weights of the various
entries in the contest recently completed
by B. E. Carmichael. livestock specialist
for the University Of Maryland Experiment
Station and secretary Of the Swine Grow
ers' Association, shows that the ten Duroc-
Jerseys raised by GLAND reached weight
of 2,093 pounds in $50 days.
Second place in the contest was achieved
by the McDonogh School, Of Baltimore.
whose uroc-Jerseys weighed 1875 lbs.
William J. Hines. Of Montgomery county.
with litter of Duroc-Jersey-Berkshire
breeding. had 1885 0 pounds OF live pork at
the end Of $50 days. while Charles White.
also of Montgomery county, qualified with
Berkshire litter that reached 1885
pounds in the specified time.
GLAND managed to beat his record OF last
year somewhat in so far as average weight
per pig was concerned. The pigs in his
litter at the end of the 150-day period had
an average weight OF nearly 209 pounds,
while last year the average weight per pig
was slightly less than 202 pounds.
The number Of pigs In the litter. how
ever, was fewer so that his total pork pro-
duction was nearly 400 pounds below that
of a year ago. To achieve his results, 1t
| is pointed out. Il was necessary TO put con-
siderably more than a pound a day on
. each animal.
GLAND was formerly All Club member
in MONTGOMERY county and is now stu
dent at the University Of Maryland.

his retirement from boxing circles the pinnacle of
his career.

the erstwhile champion is to marry daughter of
wealth. daughter of the arisocracy for there is such
thing in America not whstanding the phrase in the
Declaration of Independence.
In announcing his retirement from the boxing
game the champion declared that it had given him
everything it possibly offer and there

been enamOured, except means to an end. Having
achieved that end-tmancial independence-he very

young mans good sense. That the young lady of his

He poised his arrow high in the boxing world, and
achieved his ambition. He poised it high again in the

FLORIDA NOT BEATEN

through terrific storm which has raised havoc with
Its eastern coast

miles hour have buffeted jacksonville Orlando Mi
ann Daytona and other cities of the southern state
interrupted lines of communication prevent any esti-
mate OF the damage being made at this time nor are
there any authentic reports on the loss of life Ger
tam 1t Is that the material loss has been heavy.
Crops, business houses, residences. shipping trans

Caluornla, linked by many with Florida as a COM
merclaI rival, fully appreciate the conditions in
FLORIDA. We have not forgotten the ST. Francis dam
disaster the Santa Barbara earthquake nor the San
Francisco holocaust. To reckon the Florida loss as
our gain is unthinkable.
- When the fury of the storm has abated, Florida
Will set about to repair the damage and the
marks of natures violence The people of Florida are
Americans, the same Californians The daunt-
less American spirit that refuses to be bowed by set

THE Fla DISASTER

Pitiful indeed the fate of the 27 men aboard
the Italian submarine Fla, victims of another rag
edy.
First news following the report that the submar-
inc had been sunk while participating in maneuverS
indicated that the entire would be saved. Mes
sages from the trapped in the submarines shell
declared that all were we'll and could remain alive
for many hours.
The Italian navy worked wonders in getting help
to the stricken vessel Despite heavy and stormy
weather. within 81 hours after the Fla had sunk 1t
was raised to the surface, from the 31 feet of water
in which had sunk. The hopes Of the Italian govern
ment and of the whole civilized world were smashed
when it was learned that the submarine was only
coffin for the men who manned it.
Naval experts explain the tragedy by the shifting
of the storage batteries due the positions in which
the doomed vessel shunted about on the floor OF
the sea- This released the poisonous chlorine gases III
the batteries, sealing the fate of the crew
Although Italy is bowed with grief at the loss OF
these brave men, she can be proud Of the splendid work
comrades did save them 1t bespeaks an efficiency
and organization comparable with that Of any navy IN
the world. This Of course in the shadow Of II lives
sacrificed is small consolation but then there IS sell
dom any consolation in tragedies.

CHAMBER WILL
USE RADIO TO
BOOST VALLEY

With the friendly and willing CO.
operation of F. NJ Bowlcs and Earl
Trey, the FL Centre Chamber of
Commerce Yesterday commenced
broadcasting, over station KGEN,
lectures ON the subject Of FL Cen
tro and Imperial Valley, their re-
sources, industries, commercial pos
sibilities and farming operations.
These lectures will be broadcast
every other day, and if the demand
and the interest warrants, they will
90 out on the air daily. Radio
KGEN has indicated its willingness
10 assist the chamber in any way
10 bring 10 a fruition its plans for
a better and happier FL Centre.
The first radio lecture on FL Cen
fro and Imperial Valley treated
briefly on the water supply, china
tie advantages which give a long
growing season, and the fertility of
the soil. This viii be followed by
others on Imperial Valley crops,
their immense yield and the growth
and prosperity Of FL Ccntro and
adjacent cities. It is believed that
these chamber Of commerce lectures
viii be Of interest TO the people of
the southwest, and Will give outside
folk better understanding of life
here, farming opportunities and
business possibilities.

issued by the Los Angeles Chamber
of Commerce. While this publica-

medium for Los Angeles, the editors
have been lavish in their mention
of Imperial Valley, its crops, its
resources, its agricultural possibih-
ties. Los Angeles considers itself
the metropolitan center of large

very sensibly ON the theory that

finally the pitcher threw down his glove threw up both
hands and pitching alternately right and left while

enough of them in the country. The development Of
