Baby Pigs Need
Extra Heat

EXTRA HEAT for baby pigs born
during cold weather can make big
difference in how many are finally
raised.
The electric pig brooder, arranged
in a protected corner of the farrow-
ing pen, is considered by many grow.
ers to be almost a necessity. But at
present the U. S. department of
agriculture is working on tests that
90 even farther.
Some studies were made on apply
ing heat directly to the baby pigs
from the time of birth. The infrared
heat lamp was located over the sow
to furnish a constant supply of heat
to the pigs-from the time they are
born till they are at least IL hours
old.
After the pigs were IL hours old,
the infrared lamp was moved to a
protected corner of the narrowing
pen. Pigs were confined under the
lamp there for few minutes to let
them recognize it as a source of
heat, and spent a good part of their
time in the heated corner.
These experiments indicated that
when air temperatures were below
As degrees Fahrenheit, when the pigs
were born, extra heat was needed.
But after the pigs are a week old,
experimenters felt that it was doubt
full if any supplemental heat was
necessary.

Canadians Cnnnarate

President Irving W. Wilson of Alcoa, said plans for the new pro- -ject have met with cooperation rom Canadian officials who are glad to see a big industrial devel- opment so near the border. Water power for the hydro-electric plant will be obtained from Canada. Fly droelectric power will be generated by damming the Yukon River at Miles Canyon, near Whitehorse. Water from the reservoir will be carried under the Rocky Noun tians through two tunnels to the Alcoa power houses. Electricity generated will be used to smelt al minimum from ore brought by ship from South America.
 Each of the proposed power houses will make possible the an nual production of 100000 ton. of aluminium. That raw aluminium will be shipped to the states for processing.

Lower Interest Rate
On Taxes Proposed

A reduction of IL to 6 per cent
q year in the delinquent tax inter-
est rate in the District has been
proposed in a Senate bill.
The measure, introduced yeSter-
day by Senator Hunt, Democrat,
of Wyoming, also would require
notification Of real estate taxpay-
ers Immediately after the Board OF
Equalization increases in real es-
tate 1evies. Such notification often
is not received for several months
The Hunt bill, referred to the
Senate District Committee, would
change the District Board of Tax
Appeals to a Court of Tax Appeals
with b judge Of same rank as q
Municipal Court judge.
Senator Hunt explained this is
in line with the Federal arrange
ment, which has a tax appeals
court instead Of a board.
Another. provision would allow
refunds on all overpaid District
taxes. District taxpayers now gel
refunds only for overpayments or
income and sales taxes.
District officials said the Hunt
bill developed from studies during
the past year.

would have made some changes ir

Icedures, but these were dropped

pected to be mailed out around
