Baker, Supervising Agent of Boys’ Club Work, “and created more interest among boys, farmers, and business men than any other phase of dim work.” Pig clubs were organized in 39 counties with total enrollment of 2306 members. Final complete re ports were secured from County Agents in 20 counties, 246 members, or 10.8 per cent, reporting. Sixty members of the Fattening Class making complete reports fatten ed 60 pigs, which gained 12,549 pounds at average cost of 11.1 rents ner pound, the net profits beimz $1,725. In the Breeding Class and the Sow and Litter Class 196 bovs developed 47ft purebred hogs. which gained 36,963 pounds at cost of 14.5 cents per pound. The total value of these wns $14,785, the net profits being $3,994. Three hundred and thirteen mem hers in the fattening class, not mak ing complete reports, developed 313 pics to a total eain of 7,425 pounds valued at *12,324; while 504 in the Breeding Class, not making complete reports, developed 1165 pigs for breeding purposes to a total cain of 121.983 pounds valued at $43,506. Besides these there were 1331 'Emereencj 4 . pfe e v ub members who developed 1331 pigs to a total gain of 199.650 pounds valued at $34,978. The demand for purebreds of pro per type for club work was so gren» savs Mr. Baker, that more than 1000 Durocs, Polands, Berkshires and otb ers were purchased and brought in tin u county agents and • Extension specialists. Several hundred oi Ihose were bred gilts and there are now from this source 1500 to 2000 nurebreds in the hands of club mem bers for future breeding. A feature of the Pig Club work which shows general interest in hogs is in the fact that most of the p;gs used b v club members were brought by banks and other business men and sold to the boys for cash, on contract note, or on the endless chain plan. So are the youngsters being taught business as w r ell as hog lore. aYa j&a.

England Short Of House Servants London, Feb. 28—V need of do mestic servants is so seriously felt in England since the girl servants b:- caine munitions workers nun L a .-v Londonderry, President of tho w n ‘nen's Legion, is heading a well or ganlzed movement for the employ ment as servants of large numbers of the Women’s Auxiliary Army Corps, now being demobilized. About 9,000 of the “Waacs” will be avail able for domestic work, it is estmat ed. It is hoped they will help to re lieve the servant shortage. “The chief points of the scheme,’ Lady Londonderry- explained, ’-are a minimum wage definite leave, inter change of work, badge and uniform and a system of probation. “We , bought it best not to attempt to establish a stated working day, bur two hours’ leave must be given ever/ day, four hours on Sunday, and on-> half day a week. Fourteen daj-t, holiday, with wages, must be given each year. “AH servants sent out b v the Le gion will consist at first of our own members, most of whom have seen three or four years’ war service. At present, we are confining the scheme to servants that live in homes where they are employed but if it proves a success we shall undertake a similar scheme for servants living out and for waitresses and hotel staffs.” HAmU HOW • COFFEE Beaufont the Be^l Drink at All F ounts Stepped up to the fountain the other day and when the man behind asked me what I would have I couldn’t think of anything that would satisfy me— • was sick of all the other insipid, zestless drinks that I had been getting, so I told the man to serve me the drink he thought was best.
