Farmers everywhere are giving
greater attention to lowering cost
production and developing hogs
that most often are market toppers
Present live stock prices are not
always an indication of the desir
ability or undesirability Of starting
live stock production. Prices some
times change materially within a
few months.
Cars for shipping cattle in ex-
tremely cold weather should be
deeply bedded and the sides lined
with heavy paper to height which
will prevent strong air currents
from striking the animals.
In feeding potatoes to hogs 1t is
necessary to cook or steam them,
seasoning with little salt. They
more nearly meet the requirements
for feeding hogs when used In this
way than they do when fed to other
classes Of live stock

 Since the interview of his meth ods that he gave to The Associated Press four years ago, with the con- nivance of his comrade O. B. Kee- Ter, Bobby's statement on his req sons for leaving golf for the talk ies represents the longest discourse he has given the public.
 The A. A. U. put Bobby Jones at the head of the list of ten best athletes" for 1880, then intimated this rating might be revised be- cause of the golf kings forthcoming trip to Hollywood
 It is not quite clear how this is reasoned out, since nothing Jones does subsequently, can dim the lus- tre of his 1880 competitive triumphs. No one in golf has suggested that the Georgian return the trophies, of which he has a monopoly for the year, until some one else wins title to them

Willie Macfarlane struck the sal tent note of comment from profes- sional golfers concerning the re- tirement of the eminent MT. Jones when he remarked:
 T would rather finish second to Jones than win the open cham pionship without him among the participants"
 The pros fear" Jones every time they take to the rolling fair ways in a national championship, yet they realize that without him, the victor in any big championship occupies the embarrassing position of being champion of everyone but Jones'"
 Johnny Farrell, who beat Bobby in a great playoff at Olympia Fields in 1928, sharing this distinc- ten with Macfarlane, has another idea
 Why not have the winner of the open at Inverness next year chal- lenge Jones for the worlds open championship" asks Johnny. T agree with Macfarlane that Jones will be back in competition by 1882, if not sooner, but in the meantime he might occupy the position of standing out champion, ready to meet the challenger
 This was the way the American and British tennis championships were decided for many years. The champion stood aside each year, playing the winner of an "all com CTS" tournament. This system pre- vailed on this side until the world war and at Wimbledon until several years after the war.
 Jones, of course, is not in the same position as most athletic stars who yield to opportunities to con- mercialize their playing skill.
 The Georgian has settled all question about his ability and does not need to continue in any compe- tition whatever for purposes of "ballyhoo," such as Red Grange, Charley Paddock, Big Bill Tilden, Jack Dempsey and others have been required to do in various ways to advertise their byproducts.
 Nothing in the Jones movie con- tract requires him to do anything but go through with his part of the production process. The golf world. needs no further proof. What it wants and what the movie peo- pie propose to sell is the detailed information on how Bobby does it.
 The difficult part of the perform ance. it seems to us, is the demand that will be made on Jones for con- versation. Since this is to be a se- ries of talkies, Bob must take a lec- ture stance He has preferred here tofore to say it with his clubs. He probably has given fewer inter views and said less of anything for public consumption than any

BY the Associated Press.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, November Z.
John w. Garner. House Democratic
leader, who voted against the eigh-
tenth amendment, said yesterday he
did not expect newly wet Representa-
tives and Senators to do much about
prohibition legislation for two or per-
haps four years
Wet leaders, Representative Garner
said, will have to offer something bet
ter" than the eighteenth amendment
before it will be modified or repealed.
In two, or perhaps four years, the min
ority leader explained, modification will
be accepted as party program.
For the present" he said, Leaders
of both party organizations will be
thinking too much about the elections
of 1892, and especially those of 1884, to
start anything radical. They will wait
until sentiment is more definitely shown
than it was in the election just ended. .
The minority leader, regarded as q
Democratic choice for Speaker, said he
had no illusions as to the political COM
plexion of the next House
IF Longworth is reelected Speaker
he knows that any time 1 want to ]
can make trouble for him and if ]
should be elected he knows he can do
the same for me. The division of the
House Is too close to give either side a

discovery to his own amazement while
on duty this week at the national rep
resentation booth of the Industrial
Exposition.
"This condition completely explodes
the idea of many that most of the peo-
pie in the District of Columbia have
the voting privilege in other States
and know all about elections and cleo
ton machinery" Mr.. Suter said.
Many Have Never Seen Ballot.
1.-THE reason why so many people
living in Washington have never seen
a ballot, much less cast one" Mr.. Suter
explained, sis due to the fact that since
the territorial form of government was
abolished in 1916 years ago. the use
Of the election machinery has not been
available to them 1t is not surprising
then, that many WashingtonianS, even
those Of advanced years, have never
seen a political ballot, for the simple
reason the opportunity has been denied

One woman, who Mr.. Suter cited as
an example. was SO years old and had
lived in Washington for so years.
