INTERESTING ST01UE9 f KltO.M LITTLE FARMERS The Story of My Pig One afternoon at school the coun ty agent came to try to get the boys interested In the pigs, ho said he would like to have us join the Tig Club so I joined. I also had a pig he cost me $7. ily pig's name Is Perry. I named him that because It Is the name of the man I got him from. I had to take this breed because it was the only one I could get. I fed my pig with middlings and milk at first, Then 1 put him on green pasture. Green pasture makes a pig grow very fast any how it made this one grow. Fresh water is Important In pig raising. My pig drank quite a bit of water. When I weighed my pig. I put him In sack. He squealed to beat the band. I had a trough to feed my pig In. I fed my pig three times a day. I spent quite a bit of my time with my pig Improving his pen I made it out of new lumber. The day before yesterday I spent all day putting In a floor. My pig became a great pet, I guess because I played with him. Well bred pigs are better than scrubs because they grow better. Next year I am going to buy a sow pig and breed to see If I can't get some pigs. I have learned that pigs have to be fed well before they will grow good and also that when fat tening pigs yon have got to nse a eelf -feeder. The kind of a boy that makes a good clnb member Is one that sticks to his work. I hope I have better luck next year In raising pigs. Any how I tried to do my bit in winning this war and getting old Kaiser Bill. BUSTER BROWN Williams, Oregon. The Story of My Pic Last year my brother raised a jtet pig so I thought I would try my luck this year so papa ordered a pig from Francis Steel of the Winona Ranch. She Is a thoroughbred Berk shire with a pretty turned op nose. I named her Lady Gladys. The same Gladys was for my schoolmate. She became a great pet and followed me everywhere I go, she will come up and eat ont of my hand and my baby brother; four years old, can ride on her back. One day this summer when I was picking apples she ran under my ladder after an apple and caused me to take a tumble and another time she got through the fence Into the neighbor's pasture. I took an ear of corn and went after her. I called "Lady Gladys" and she came run ning and followed me home. We have no platform scales so papa made a crate to put her In, so we could weigh her on the steel yards and we had a great time weigh ing her. We had to get a neighbor to help us. I hope I may be able to help some one In the Pig Club work next year by supplying them with thorough bred Berkshire pigs. CLARA M. LOUGHRIDGE, Wflderville, Oregon. The Story of My Pit? I entered this sow and litter con test to raise pork to help feed the soldiers. I wanted to help in win ning the war and took this way of doing it. 1 received my sow pig from Mr. K. R. Steel of the Winona Ranch. She has not been named for 1 have not received her reglstratlou papers. I selected the llerkshire because It seemed to bo easily kept, fattened quick and made very good bacou. Pasture and green crops are cheap feed and seems to be something that they need; it gives them exercise which they do not get extensively when peuned up. My sow Is fed waste, morning noon and evening besides having pasture to run in at present. I shut her up at night in a warm dry place. Well bred hogs do not take the feed that scrub ones do and are very much easier kept. I Intend to raise some pigs next year. I have learned that hogs should be fed at regular hours, lnve plenty of exercise ami a warm dry place to sleep in cold weather. A person that takes an interest In the care of their pigs, and sees that they are fed properly. Is one that makes a good Pig Club member. GLADYS SHEBHAN, Grants Pass, Oregon. Adler-i-ka Helps Son!

Opinion as to what should be done with William Hoheniollern, formerly German emperor. Is very much di vided in Holland, even in the extreme southeastern corner of the province of rtrecht, where Is situated the castle of Amerongen, Hohenzollern's temporary abode. Here the rural population contentedly lives under the rule of the gentry who have own ed the land around for generations. An opportunity to observe the divi sion of sentiment was afforded the Associated Press correspondent when he sought lodgings for the ntgnt In a small village hotel. Seated about the office were half a dozen villagers. After the stranger had been eyed awhile with the furtive suspicion of the rustle towards the townsman. talk drifted back to its former chan nel Hoheniollern. "What do peo ple hereabouts think of him?" the correspondent asked. Think of him? He should be clapped In Jail, and hanged," rapped out a sharp faced man fiercely. "That's .what I think of him." "Nay, neighbor," expostulated a. fat complacent man who looked like a prosperous cattle dealer oozing with war profits, "he don't deserve all that, surely." "What?" ejaculated the first man. "A feller who had millions of peo ple killed in them battles." "What I say Is," broke In the cat tleman, "he always gave thanks to the Almighty. He always praised God. You can see it In the papers. And that's a fit and proper thing to do. There are many worse than he, and It wasn't his .fault alone that all them people were killed. What do you say landlord?" "Aye, that may be true," said the landlord diplomatically. "He had his faults. I daresay. But I do say 'tis a Bad come-down from a gentle man in his position." An 1 he shook his gray head. "Pshaw!" said the sharp-faced man.. "You bet he lacks for nothing. He lives on the fat o the land. He sets all he wants, and more. Cur rant bread he gets every day, and jam and tea. Folks like that never lack for nothing, eh." The villa ne carpenter thus addrss ed cast a disapproving look over the assembly. "I don't hold with roy alty and such," he growled slowly through his teeth, which gripped his pipe like a vise. "There's old Paul Jim Miller, of Medford, was in the city today. ; Mr. and Mrs. J. E.

While the exact cause of the wreck is not known, or at least has not been given out, a broken flange was found on one car heel and that might have been the cause. The seven cars which went off the track were all empties, ex cept a gondola, which was loaded with piling. The wreck occurred In a cut, which was about ten feet deep, and wo or three of the cars were thrown high into the air and out onto the bank. They were converted Into kindling wood. The car that did most of the damage, apparently, was the one loaded with piling. One f the trucks on this car turned side- wise and was dragged along, rip ping up the ties for some distance. A huge bonfire was made from the wreckagu and from the light-thus obtained the crew of workmen la bored with, full aimed until the mld- Ight hour before the damage was repaired. Tho wrecking crews from both Ashland and Rosehurg were at the scene. Woman Pies of Pneumonia Mrs. Cora Stella Turner, wife of T.

Sounding warning that over-production of meat animals In 1920 would prove dlsasterous to the Industry, President I. T. Pryor of the American National Livestock association, today told delegates attending the association's annual meeting that they should reg ulate production to the requirements of domestic consumption. President Pryon declared that the t'nlted States has a sufficient supply of meat animals to meet, all antici pated, demands from hungry Europe and for domestic consumption, des pite liquidation during 1918. "With our export decreasing after 1919 and our over-supply Increas Ing," President Pryon said, "the problem that confronts cattlemen Is to regulate supplies in 1920 and thereafter to tho needs of domestic consumers. For that is the only suro and unfailing market for our pro ducts. Even our home market may be affected by Importation of . beef from other surplus countries. We must seo that this does not happen. "Our government Is not prepared to protect livestock -producers from the disasters that would follow over production. No plan has been evolved to satisfactorily determine costs of -production and to stabilize on such a level.' The plain fact is that the stockmen are asked to as sume all the risks that might follow the government's plea tor increased production, and take our chances of securing a fair return. If the food administration were to continue and there was a certainty of large orders from our allies. being placed through It, the situation would be different."
