RESULTS BOTAINED FROM A
SELF-FEEDER.
No man has ever been able to give
a sensible reason for growing cotton
to pay for bacon and lard, instead of
growing cheap forage crops, and es
pecially legumes, to raise hogs.
No man has ever been able to give
a plau'i'ble reason for' attempting, to
grow hogs on pasture alone or on
grain alone.
Hog-raising can seldom be made
profitable without thoroughly good,
permanent pastures and temporary
Igrazing crops, where the hogs can
.obtain the necessary coarse forage
an da large amount of the grain
feed which is needed, at a small cost.
'Pa'ture grasses and forage crops,
especially leguminous crops, that
Swill grow healthy, vigorous hogs of
agood quality must ever remain the
- basic factor in economical pork pro
rduction in the South; however, grian
Smust not, on any account, be omitted
! from the daily ration. A certain

High Tide In Telephone
Traffic
This chart shows the extraordinary growth of
long distance traffic on the Bell system Under war
conditions. The difficulties in keeping pace with
such demands may be appreciated when it Is un
derstood that the cost of material entering into
the manufacture of telephone equipment has prac.
tically doubled, in addition to the abnormal in
crease in the price of labor and the shortage of
both labor and material with which to add to our
facilities.
Upon the declaration of war, the- Bell sys
tem pledged its entire service unreservedly to the
government. The demand from that source is
already great and is increasing ho ; more
over the extraordinary increase in telephne traf
fic due to the unprecedented commercial and in
dustrial activity incident to the war is also making
itself felt. -
The problem before us is a serious one and we
realize the service may probably be slowed down
during the coming months. We want you also
to understand the situation and to know that the
operators are serving you cheerfully and to the
extent of their ability, but under difculties for .
which there is no immediate remedy and which
you cannot realize without visiting the operating
room.
We ask that you co-operate with to hebery.

necessary to grow hogs with the
greatest profit.
At least one-fourth of a full grain
ration, or one pound to every 100
pounds of live weight, should Ibe giv
en each day. When fed to pigs and
you rhogs, the grain feed should be
such as will furnish material for
bone and-muscle, and nit such as will
produce an excess fat. Theer should
of course, be a gradual change from
the nitrogenous, muscle-making
foods given the pig to fat-making
foods.
We cannot afford to get a reputa
tion to rproducing an unsatisfactory
cercass such as is produced by grass
es, cowpeas, soy beans and peanuts
This, however, can ibe easily avoided
by feeding some grain while on pas
ture and by feeding a full grain ra
tion for about three weks before
slaughtering or marketing.
The Mississippi Delta Station made
three tests in which self-feeding was
compared with hand-feeding. In
test No .1 there were three-months
old pigs in each lot. Lbt No. 1 was
fed twice each day for 90 days on a
ration of corn and tankage, balanced
acording to a feeding standard. Lot
No. 2 ate corn and tankage from sep
arate compartments of the self-feed
er. In test No. 2 younger pegs were
used and the duration was only 75
days. In test No. 3 cottonseed meal
was substituted for tankage and the
duration was only 60 days. The
following is a summary of the result
obtained:
"In all three tests the self-fed lots
made better gains and consumed less
feed than the hand-fed lots. Even
when the cost of care is not consid
ered, the profit per pig of the self
fed lot was greater than the profit
per pig of the hand-fed lot; in the
first test, $2.80 greater; in the sec
ond, $2.07 greater; and in the third,
$1.10 greater. When the cost of
care is included, the difference in
favor of self-feeding is even greater;
in the first case, $3.43; in the sec
ond, $2.60; and third, $1.48.
"In the first test the difference in
cost of 100 pound gain was $1.74 in
favor of the self-fed lot; in the sec
ond test, $1.27; in the third, 82c.
"The self-feeder is desirable in
that it saves five-sixths the time .re
quired by the old method of feeding
two or more times a day in a trough.
"It is desirable in that it insures
better and cheaper gains.
"It is desirable in that when kept
filled with right feeds, it makes pos
sible better and thriftier animals; at
all times the pigs get the different
elements the obdy needs, in the right
proportion.
"It is desirable in that it enables
every man to feed a properly balanc
ed ration to his pigs at all times."

Chief of the Department.

THE WAR-SAVINGS PLAN IN
BRIE?.
The war-savings plan provided for
in the bond act of September 34,
1.917, goes into operation Monday,
December 3. Government certifi- C
cates of indebtedness are to Tbe sold I
in two denominations-thrift stamps -
costing 25 cents each and war-sav
ings stamps costing form $4.12 to
$4.23, according to date of purchase.
When $4 worth of thrift stamps
are obtained a war-savings stamp
can be secured in exchange for them
by paying the difference between $4
and the current price of the war- -
saving stamp.
War-savings stamps can be pur
chased for $4.12 during the months
of December. 1917, and January,
1918, but will cost 1 cent more for
each succeeding month in the year
1018. They are redeemarle on Jan- -
uary 1, 1923, for $5, which amounts
to 4 per cent on the amount invested
compounded quarterly.
Although these Investments do not 1
mature until January 1, 1923, on lu Ii
days written notice after January 1, I
1918, such certifcates will be re- -
deemed by postmasters at their cost
to the purchaser plus 1 per cent a
month on each war-savings stamp.
The thrift stamps do not bear in
terest.
The stamps and certificates can be
obtained from postoffices, banks, or
trust companies, at most railroad
stations, stores, factories, and many
other public places. ,
GOING IT TOO HARD?
Overwork, worry, overeating and
lack of exercise and sleep are re
sponsible for much kidney trouble.
If your back aches and the kidneys
seem weak, rest up and use Doanas
Kidney Pills.
H. J. Hackett, 801 North St., Bat
on Rouge, ILa., says: "For years I
had been an almost constant sufferer
from kidney trouble and frequently
I was so bad that I couldn't get up
from my bed. Terrible pains dart
ed through my hips and back, and I
suffered terribly. I also passed sev- I
eral large gravel stone. None of the
remedies I used gave me any relief
until I got Doan's Kidney Pills. They
helped me at once. Since then,
whenever my kidneys have been out
of order, Doan's Kidney Pills have
always done me good."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mr. Hackett relies on. Poster-Mil
