L. V. Star key, head of the Animal IIu-bandry Department of Clemson f o)l?*gv: More economical gain*-?The feed-a^ing \alue of forage crops ranges from 10 to M) jx-r cent of the con ? r,trates necessary to produce a given weight <>f pork. Greater freedom from disease? Hog- raised on forages show a much lighter i infestation of such parasites a- round worms and kidney worms. Saving in fertility?When hogs are fed on forages the manure is distributed over the land; when fed in dry l<?t a large j>er cent </f the manure wasted. I he amount of forage required per sow is not very great," Drof. Starkey explains. "An acre of land of medium fertility should furnish abundant grazing for a brood sow and her two litters. On most farms there is at least an acre of fertile soil somewhere near the barn which can be used to advantage for this purpose. "Some of the best forages which may be used for summer are?Biloxi sovlM-ans, 1'eail millet, oow|*-as, Sudan grns-. I*or winter forages?barley, rape, rye and oats give good results. One of the attractive features ot using small grains f?.?r hog grazing is that the hogs may Ik* removed a Unit the first of April and the forage may ^iiil yield a normal anioun' of grain." Eagle Attempts To Carry Boy Into Air Lynchburg, Tenn., April ]<>.- Floyd Tipps has proved that a 15-year-old boy is a worthy foe?even for a mas.sive golden eagle with a wing spread of 85 inches. The big bird came out a poor second Friday to Floyd, who beat it to death with a stick as it tried to car-; ry off his 8-year-old brother, Charles.1 Attracted by screams and shouts Floyd said he ran to his brother's aid and found the eagle dragging Charles along the ground. Floyd grabbed a stick and flayed the bird across the head until it released its hold on the (little boy. The heroic work of Floyd resulted i in death for the eagle while little Charles went to the doctor for treatment of lacerations on the face and leg- caused by the bird's talons ami beak.
