Cloud* Against Sudden Attack
la Pointed Out
The Dutch paper Telegraaf reiHHt*
ed that on November lft airplanea
dropped bombs on tho caatle at Swal
I men, where the ex-crown prince of
| Germany la staying. , ,
j No suggestion la made aa to the
| nationality of the airplanes, except by
tho parenthetical rework that Swal
, men la only three miles from the Ger
man frontier. The report does not '
mention any casualties nor does It
!> ?ay how the ex-prince bore himself
under flr?, though It would have beeu
Interesting to have known, since, ac
cording to popular report, he tfas had
no. previous experience during the war
of being under Are, having left all
' tha*t to( the German "cannon fodder,"
| which lie . so recklessly and cynically
I sacrificed.
The report Is vague In the extreme,
but whether or not true, It suggests
various exciting possibilities In the
future. Piracy and smuggling by air
plune a it possibilities not to be overn
j looked. Of cpurse, while all Europe
l? nt HI armed, and the German anuy
' resembles a pack of wolves without a
I pack leader, nothing could be easier
I than for some German airmen .who
disapprove of the ex-crown prince's
conduct In general and are resolved
I that iio counter-revolution shall ever
i make him emperor, to paint out the
i national marks on their machines, fly
j high above the clouds Into Holland,
dive upon Ills residence and release
their bombs. In any force still retain
ing its discipline and the discipline "f
j active service at that, such action
would be wildly Impossible,
In- times of pcace such raids would
be less easy. All airdromes and their
alrplnnes will of course be registered;
the movements of aircraft will be even
more strictly under observation than
those of seagoing' ships, for the simple
reason that their periods of absence
from terra ftrma are necessarily much
briefer.
Moreover, air pirates could never
stop a commercial airplane and call
' on It to "stand and deliver." They
could never get away with booty, tftul
1 therefore their operations could only
, be destructive and not profitable.
1 But one must, not overlook the pos
sibility that a power as evil disposed
' -and reckless as Germany was la 1914
lul^ht suddenly begin a systematic at
tack on all the aircraft of a rival. The
experiences of the past warn us to be
| cautious In the fnture.
It will be the task of the royal air
forcas,to. guard the* air merchantmen
f of Britain. For years their work may
' be as bloodless as was the' work of
the navy from Navarlno to 1914, but
the navy was needed at last, and* It
i would be very rash to declare that the
royal air force will never again send
a foe down In flames.

LEARNING TO BE A CIVILIAN
1 . ' >
Dlfpharftd British Soldier Teetlflss
That Hs Find* New Feeling
Out of Uniform.
> Is the glamor of uniform wearing
ottt
After three years of service clothe*
T liave Just .spout my first day* In
civilian attire. Hurprlslng to tell, 1
believe I have net wtlll more civility
out of uulform than In It. "It. G."
| write* In the continental edition of the
Ix>ndon Mall.
Two possible solutlon?ytf>f thin re
markable, attitude occur Ti me. The
first la that moat offlc?rs appear to be
rather stern and stand-offish In unit,
form* 9%0 Other solution, ami per
haps an equally probable one, is that
t be public, In getting fired of W0|l)ll
so many officers going about aimlessly
with apparently nothing much <?? ??<?
except to upend money and klil time.
Naturally, 1 suppose, when I first
went out In "civ vie#" I had the In
grained Inclination to salute all su
perior officers I met and l<? prepare to
take edlutea from (he iranlta, It took
me the best l>art of a day to Overcome
this Impulse.
The "air" habit wuh very strong, too.
On u?y first morning as a civilian I
hud to see a colonel at the war office
on business? business in which our
staudlrw jprfs at least ^qual ? and 1
Iramcd&f&y "sirred" him, of course.
Force of liablt, pure and simple.
Again there is the matter of running
after an omnibus or across the road?
In uniform pine tries to make a point
of not doing these things. Now, how
ever, when "example" has not longer
to be considered, I find It practically
Impossible to chase ah omnibus or'
flee from nn oncoming taxlcab. The
instinct Is against doing so.
Apparently It is Just as necessary to
reiearn how to be a civilian as it
once was to learn how to be a sohller.
SKILLFUL PIECE OF WORK
Novel Fe&t of Engineering Recently
Put to the Credit of Amerloan
Bridge Builders.
Not long ago It was discovered that
Hie piers of the combined highway and
railroad bridge a cross the M1sh< hi H
river at at Joseph, Mo., were In bad
condition and it Would be necessary
to build new piers. At tirst.it was
proposed to build the new piers on
the downstream side of the old bridge
and shift the bridge laterally to ibe
new position, In this way maintaining
t rafllc over the old bridge while t lie
new construction was going on. Hut
the war department required ^the in
stallation of a larger draw-span .In the
bridge and so It was decided to build
the new piers between the old plors!
After they were completed, the- fU<-d
spans of the bridge* were moved shore
ward 'endwise, so that they rested on
the new piers. A temporary span was
constructed, to fill the gap thus oc
casioned, so that frnflic was closed
over the bridge for less than ten hours.
Then work was^hegun upon the new
swing span, which was built as a canti
lever In open position. "To permit of
this, a portion of the old swing-span
had to be cut away and a temporary
lift-span was put In to feke care of
river traffic. _ Thus the bridge was re
constructed . without changing its
alignment. ? Scientific American.

ECONOMIC HOG
PRODUCTION
Plant Grasing Crops and TM \
Heavily at All Times.
C loin son College. ? "The market bos
that goes hf? first birthday usually
lose* in mey for the owner." This
statement in made by P, W. WilUama.
livestock specialist of the Extension
Service, In discussing profitable bo*
production in South Carolina. This
means that the hog must go to the
slaughter at eight to ten motnhs of
age, weighing two hundred pound*.
This li not an unusual weight for
)u>ks at eight months. Recently one
feeder averaged over two buhdre<l~on
twelve head at five months. To make
profit# from bogs it is necessary to
feed heavy at all times. A starving
process is a losing one in growing
hogs.
The hog raiser's problem, therefore,
is "How can I make the tAoet bog, tn
the least time at the lowest, cost t"
Plenty of feed provided ahead of time
is the solution. Pigs farrowed In Jan
uary and February should be ready
for the October and November mar*
kets.
Start now and provide the feeda
that will be needed this fall. We can
not compete with the corn belt farmer
raising hogs in a dry lot on corn and
purchased supplementary feeds such
as aborts and tankage. While th^se
are always necessary to make the best
gains, we must use forage crops just
as much as possible. With the wide
use of forage crops cheaper pork can
be produced in South Carolina than In
the Corn belt.
Be sure to plant some supplement
ary feed crop with your (Jorn. Cow
peas, soy beans, and velvet beans all
iFi^rnlsh good grazing for ho^s. In
the fall let the hogs do the haryest
ing and you will, find but very little
wasted. Let the hogs you are going
tp market gather most of the feed;
then when it gets so scarce that they
must cover^ft great deal of ground in
getting enough to eat, remove them
and let sows aiid smaller pigs finish
cleaning up the field.
A small patch of sweet potatoes Will
furnish much succulent feed, whieli
with a grain ration will make very
satisfactory gains,
Every farmer, whether or not he
raise hogs, should have some alfalfa.
It pays handsomely where it is
grown. As a forage cfrop for hogs Its
is unexcelled.
It is questionable whether it is ad
visable to plant very many peanuts for
hogs this fall, says Mr. Williams.
Whilo hogs make very cheap, and
rapid gains on this crop, the carcasses
Are greatly discriminated against on
the market. Soft drippy pork is not
desirable. South Carolina is now
producing hogs that sell to better ad
vantage than those from other South
ern States, because these hogs kill
hard as a rule. It is to our advantage
to continue marketing a superior prod
uct which sells well toward the top of
the market rather than to get a rep
utation for soft hogs and take a cut
in price which is often three or four
cents per pound.
IJogs will be marketed this fall In
carload lota from practically every
county. Aim to provide a few surplus
hogs for these shipments to help es-.
tablish a hog market in this state. Be
sure to kill enough to assure your
home supply of meat; then market
the surplus. In the future of diversi
fied farming in South Carolina the
hog is one of the moat promising fac
tors.
GREEDY HENS ARE GOOD
MOTHERS.
Clemson College. ? It is not giner
aHy known that the greedy mother
who eats almost all the food thrown
to the baby chicks is doing., her best
to prevent the loss of her brood. Just
before a chick is hatched it absorbs
the greater part of the yolk of the egg.
This yolk will not be digested for a
week or ten days, and if the chick is
overfed its system becomes clogged,
the yolk decays, and the chick dies.
Many persons raising chickens in
brooders make the fatal mistake of
feeding the biddies too much. The
brooder is not a greedy hen and it
the food and thereby pre
vent the chicks obtaining more than
they should have to eat.
Place the brooder on sharp sand,
have the temperature one hundred
degrees when the chicks are removed
from the incubator, and do not feed
the chicks the first day. Oive them
buttermilk or sour milk; otherwise
fresh water. A tomato can with a
hole punched near the open end
should be filled with liquid and In
verted over a saucer to prevent the
chicks from becoming wet.
On the second and third days scat
ter a little rolled oats on the sand
floor four or five times daily. On the
fourth day begin alternating rolled
oats with some coarse hominy or com
mercial chick feed. The . latter is
preferable because it cantatas also
millet seed and cracked wheat Scat
ter_these on the fine litter to make
the chicks At excise. * '
On the fifth day provide a dry
of equal parts hominy. wheaUafc^fta,
rolled oats, (or ground oat* with the
hulls removed), wheat bran, a i fled
beef scraps, and bright yellow cotton
seed meal. Keep this dry mash be
fore the chicks constantly.
If theee suggestions are followed,
the hahy chlcka are likely to p aai
through the critical period without
any mishap. -F .
