The ungainly, unprofitaf6 hog

The WR bre hog far exceedsi

be carefully considered when hogs
are bein.g . selected. -Good farming
has no v'Iate for the razor-back, be-i
cause good farming .. is first of allM
economical. .
Market hogs arei st'gehouses in
which grain, forage, and oter feeds
are stored up in the form of meat.
The small granary is of comparative
ly little value; the profits are -in'
those having at least reasonable ca
pacity. .The razor-back is a "store
house" with very little capacity and
can not. make rapid gains. On the
other hand, a -pig of any of the pop
ular breeds is .capable of attaining a
weight of from 250 to 350 pounds at
nine to twelve months old; indeed,
such weights are not unusual in the
'Corn: Belt.
The well -bred hog far outclasses
the razor-back in regularity of breed
ing and ability to produce large lit
ters of pigs. This is one of the most
important points to be considered in
hog-raising.
. Finally, look at this picture of a
typical razor-back and then call to
mind the appearance of any~ well-bred
hrg. The differences are so striking
that a comparison seems absurd.

I DEMONSTRATI
The year 1915 was a most su
fal one for the demonstration wo1
South Carulina, according to than
nual reports of the county denonra
tion agents which have been receed
at Clemson College by State Aint
W. W. Long. This annual repors
tabulated from a weekly report sht
which the agent fills out at the Ld
of each week. On these sheets
agents report the statistical res
of practically every line of work t
are engaged in. In this way it is
sible to obtain each year an accur
summary of the results accomplis
by the whole organization. At
same time. one reading a report
the work should bear in mind that.

y a vote of 26 to 18 reduced th
mount of liquors that may be
~nprted each month from one)
~allon to two quarts. Earlier intI
mit monthly sh'olei~
nart was rejected by a vote o~
1 to 23. Several other amend
nents were offered, among these
eing two to allow the alterna
:ive of beer shipments. ,One

~mendments during the morning
esson.
In the evening' the bill was
~urther modified by the adoption
f the Hughes amendment, which
rovided for monthly shipments
f 60 pint bottles of beer in lieu
f the two quarts of whiskey.
'he amendment was adopted by
vote of 22 to 19. T he Hughes
mendment was further modified
o preclude shiDments of beer
vlth a content of alcohol greater
:han 5 per cent. Provision was
lso made to have beer shipped
n open cases, that rigid inspec
:ionl might be enforced. The bill
.n its etirety was passed by a
ote of 28 to 12.
The bill by Messrs. Moore and
obinson to establish the John
e La Howe industrial home and
chool for destitute children, car
ying a State appropriation of.
10.000, was given a second read
ng in the house yesterday morn
ng, with practically no opposi
io. The' management of the
institution, which will be located
proderty in Abbeville county
jesignated in the will of the late
John De La H-owe. is placed in
the hands of a ooard of trustees
o be selected by the general as
~embly.' The school will be op
sratrd for white boys aud girls
between the ages of six and 16,
ho are destitute and who have
neither parent nor guardian to
care for them or whose parents
or guardians are unable to care
for them. An inmate of the
homd shall be kept there until
21 years of age, unless sooner
dismissed by the trustess or a
judge. The bill requires that
nach boy or gir'l shall wo'rk at
least four hours a day and shall
be instructed in such branches
of useful knowledge aiid arts as
may be suited to his or her years.
A bill relating to the high
schools of the State and provid
ing for State aid was passed in
the house last night by the over
vhelming ma.iority of 89 to 9.
The bill resulates the disbuirse~
menet of the $.35,000 approprias
tion for the advancement of high
schools and does away with~ the
charging of tuition in certain in
stances. The bill has been in
dorsed by practically all those
onnected with the public school
JI1i S FOR 1915
the great increase in the wealth of
Lhe state through the work uf farmers
vho are indirectly inAuenc:ied by the
demonstration agents. IL statistics
for this were obtainable, it is cer
tain that they would be vastly greater
than those for the demonstrators
alone.
Below are given some of the more
striking statistics from the annual
demonstration reports for this state.
In the case of cotton, it should be not
ed that the yield of demonstrators
was 479 pounds per acre, as against
he state's 1914 average of 256 pounds.
nd probably-a much lower average
r 191i. In the case of corn, the
monstration yield was 29.4 bushels.
-against the n.tate's 1914 average
of 1S.5 bushels. The items quoted
below are only one-fourth of those
reported on, but they are among the
most interesting.
