Grain for flogs on Pasture.
While the cost of producing
pork may be reduced by the use
of green feed, it is desirable to
feed grain in addition. There is
no time that grain can be so prof
itably fed to a hog as when he is
young and running on pasture,
Under such conditions, it is pos
sible to secure 15 pounds of gain
for each bushel of grain fed.
During the spring, summer, and
early fall months from onehalf
to three-fourths of a full feed of
grain will be sufficient for hogs
running on pasture.
Little l eather Prophets.
If you go out on a summer
morning and find the ants busi
ly engaged in clearing out their
nests and dragging the sand and
bits of earth to the surface, you
may be sure, no matter how
cloudy it is, that there will be no
rain that day, and possibly for
several days. If, however, in
the afternoon you see the ants
hurrying back to their nests, and
the sentinels hunting up the
stragglers and urging them to go
home, you may be certain that
there will be rain that afternoon
or nignt. How the ants know
we have no idea, but they do
know.

Canning and Evaporating Hants.
Editor PECK:-Since coming
to Newville, many friends who
know of the favorable fruit con
ditions found in the interior perts
of Fulton county, have asked
why canning and evaporating
plants have not been established,
green products reduced to mar
ketable form, Btored, and, at a
convenient time, taken to ship
ping points?
Since the foregoing is along
the line of argument frequently
used by the News, I thought it
might encourage the business
men of the County to know that
others see this matter in the
same light
The farmers of hilly sections of
your county would heartily agree
to support local canning and
evaporating plants, provided,
they be assured of permanency,
and "disinterested" manage
ment, in other words, cut out all
"axe grinding."
These farmers many of them
know that better use should be
made of those old hills; but, un
less you get that County Agent,
men who have time and talent to
promote such things will have to
take the initiative in hand. Th n
watch the bank deposits growl
