OUTLINE ROUTE
FOR DAYS OUTING
[COatinurd from Firn Passl

to Bridgeville passing the large
Townsend orchards and presenting
a glimpse of a large oil derrick and
pump where an attempt is being
made to drill for oil. this road
strikes Route l3 once more and the
return home is made through Har-
ringtOn to Dover where the dual
highway is being constructed to
connect with the one now finished
from Smyrna to Wilmington. The
trip can easily be made in a day,
the actual running time not taking
more than six hours.
The principal detour in the State
at present is announced by the
Highway Department as being To-
Gated at Frederick where the cause
way is being paved with concrete.
For distance of about q mile the
detour takes a well kept gravel road
directly through the business sec
tion of the town Traffic is passing
through without any difficulty.
From Smyrna to Dover, because
of the construction of the dual high
way and the number of men and
trucks which are working. the mo-
toring public is advised to proceed
slowly during week days along this
entire route.

WOMEN

She's an angel in truth. a demon in
fiction,
A woman's the greatest of all con-
tradictiOns.
She's afraid of a cockroach she'll
screen at a mouse.
But she'll tackle husband as big
as a house
She'll take him for better; she'll
take him for worse.
She'll split his head open and then
be his nurse
When he is well and can get out of
bed,
She'll pick up teapot and throw at
his head
She's faithful. deceitful, keen-sighted
aud blind
Shes crafty. she's simple. she's
cruel, she's kind.
She'll lift a man up, she'll cast a
man down.
She'll crown him her king, she'll
make him her clown.
You fancy she's this, but you find
she is that,
She'll play like a kitten, and bite
like cat
In the morning she will, in the eve
ming she won't,
You're always expecting she does
but she don't

that the pig will weigh approx
mately rs to 100 pounds. a mixture
of feed running about this percen-
tage protein would also be very de-
sirable for a brood SOW as a milk
maker. II variety of prOteins can
be supplied along with farm grain
to give the balance of this kind the
ration will be more complete and
more efficient.
In addition to the protein content
of the ration a few simple minerals
seem to he quite desirable. II has
been demonstrated that the milk of
the brood SOW is not complete. Ane-
mia normally develops in a great
many little pigs early in the season.
The use of few simple minerals
containing particularly some copper
and iron seems to be desirable in
the ration of the pigs due to the fact
that the feeding of this mineral to
the brood SOW does not necessarily
correct the deficiency in the milk.
Therefore q complete ration of
grains. proteins and minerals self
fed to brood sows and litters will
give the pigs running start which
is essential to put them on the mar
ket and gain advantage of the top
prices which are normally obtained
in September.
II these rations can be fed upon
clean pastures which have not been
grazed by hogs during the last two
years it will be decided advantage
and maintain the vigor and vitality
of the pigs and avoiding infesta-
tions of parasites which are expen-
sive to the hogh producer.

The corn hog program provides
for a reduction in pork production
With relatively high priced corn and
a shortage of corn in some sections
there will undoubtedly be tendency
ON the part of hog feeders To econ
omiZe on their hog ratiOns during
the spring and summer program OF
feeding. AS result of this there
will undoubtedly be a small num-
ber of well finished hogs for the Sep
tember market
In 1888 September hogs were up
practically $500 per hundredweight
more than spring hogs that were
marketed in December. This cOndi-
tion should prevail again this year.
and it is possible that the margin
may even be wider.
The most economical pork that a
hog feeder produces can be made on
the pig up to the time that il weighs
a hundred pounds provided the pig Is
given a proper chance. Self feeding
the brood SOW and litter not only
helps to maintain the condition Of
the brood SOW but increases the rate
of gain upon the little pigs and at
the same time reduces the amount
of feed that is required to produce a
hundred pounds of pork. Therefore
the self feeding of the brood SOW and
the litter should be adopted as de-
sirable practice.
In order that rapid economical
gains may be obtained and the prop
er growth may be made the protein
content of the ration of the little pig
should run about 1879 up to the time

The death of Colonel HOfer Of
March 18th signed 80" to one Ol
the most dramatic and cOlorful ca
reers in Oregon newspaper history
He was leading figure in state, civ
ic and development enterprises IN
Oregon for As years.
II can be said of Colonel HOfer
that he would be the first to smile
perhaps a little disdainfully, at Il
formal eulogy. To those who came
in contact with him, his occasional
eccentric moods were as endeafins
as his most serene ones. You were
aware always, even when he had
passed IS, of his amazing vitality
and, much more important still. OF
his youthful viewpoint. You were
aware of his hatred of hypocrisy and
of sham-things which were no part
of him. You were aware of a direct,
a brilliant fOrcefulness. that found
outlet in crisp phrases, in tursid ep-
igrams, that you would not forget.
Preeminently, Colonel HOfer repre-
sented a disappearing figure
neWspaper man of the old school.
He surrounded himself with the
things. he IoYed--family, friends.
gardens. pictures, books. He was al
ways proud of the fact that he was
a country publisher" He was no
worshiper of money. In people he
loved genuineness and loyalty-thelr
positions of prominence were SEC
ondary to him. He would have felt
highly hOnOred to know that the ne
gro boOtblack who shined his shoes
for years, attended his funeral
There can he no finer, no more ac-
curate, Characterization of him than
that.
The Colonel did not acquire his
outstanding qualities by chance lie
came from a line of forebears who
fought and died for personal liberty.
He was without fear and without
malice-and he never scorned GOOD
fight when the cause, in his opinion
was justified. 'He stood unfiinchins-
ly for what he believed so be right
but he was without false pride which
makes a man hold a position when
events have shown him that he was
in the wrong. He had a hatred for
crooked politics and sharp prac-
tices. He was opposed to paternal
ism in government and tOp-heaYy Of
ficialism which crushes individual
ism. He conducted. through the med
ium of the printed page, aggressive
disagreements of opinion with other
editors-an1 ii is a testimonial to
his character that some of those
with whom he differed most vehe-
mently were, at the end Of his life,
his devoted friends.
He wrote on many topics, publish
ed a novel Jack Norton" and sew
eral shorter works.
Always interested in encouraging
unknown writer's. he started publi-
cation of a monthly magazine "The
I.ariat" in 1928, to continue for five
years as he announced in the first !
