Feed, Hold Hogs For High Spring Market i Florence, Feb. 15.?Largo numbers of unfinished hogs now going on the : markets have had a depressing effect 1 on hog prices on the larger hog mar; kets, states A. L. Dultant, extension livestock specialist here, advising j South Carolina farmers that It will pay them not to market their small . unfinished hogs at the present time I but to feed them for thirty to sixty j days more. I "So many of these small hogs have I also caused the larger markets to ' raise the weight limits on top hogs,1 so that the top prices on most markets are now for hogs weighing from 190 to 250 pounds," says DuRant. | "There is also a seasonal change In prices on hogs. During December and January when most farmers have hogs for sale the prices are lower. Then we have a rise in the spring reaching the peak about April. We also have high prices for hogs about the last of August or the first of September before most of the hogs come on the market. With a scarcity of good hogs tlie outlook is far more than tlie usual rise in prices for hogs this spring. "By holding and feeding, farmers will get the benefit of the increased price of the heavier Weight hogs aaid the benefit of the rising market." Even with the high price of feeds, the specialist thinks that farmers can make a profit on feeding hogs by using a balanced ration of corn and fish meal or tankage or equal parts of cottonseed meal with fish meal or tankage. He states that the farmers who kept records on their feeding operations last year took 6.5 bushels of corn and forty pounds of protein supplement to produce 100 pounds of gain. Deducting this cost of protein feeds, this left a return of $1.50 a bushel for corn at the present price of hogs. R. E. Lee Stamps Out At An Early Date Washington, Feb. 15.?Postal offic-j ials chuckled when advised the South' Carolina house of representatives had protested against sale of stamps bearing the likeness of General William Tecumseh Sherman. "If the Soutli Carolina legislature is still in session," said Roy M. North, deputy third assistant postmaster general, "tell them for us that we expect them to substitute that vote with one of confidence and approval. "Perhaps they will be willing to do that," he laughed, "when they learn that the next commemorative Issue will carry the portraits of Generals Robert E. Lee and 'Stonewall' Jackson." Other officials said it was "too late" to stop the run of Sherman stamps, anyway. The bureau of engraving and printing already has printed millions of them for sale af- j ler February 17. The Sherman stamp ; will also depict Generals Ulysses S. Grant "and Phil Sheridan. A navy , Ramp, issued the- same day, will porray Admirals David Glasgow Farragut and David D. Porter.

C. Turner, Jr., oxtenBlon aoll conservation specialist of . the Extension Service, speaking with I the recent Ohio river flood In mind | and the great loss of good soil suffered by land In the area involved It la eatlmated, says Turner, that 300 million tons of soli were washed I Into the streams and valleys above | Cairo, Illinois, by the Ohio river flood, an average of 2.38 tons of soil from each acre in the Ohio drainage basin. In this connection the specialist tasks each South Carolina land owner, how mueli soil have you lost from your farm this winter? And, with facts and suggestions he points the way to reduction of soli losses. He sa y a: Your soil losses are in direct proportion to the amount and speed of the run-off water on your farm. Repair and maintain your terraces as soon as weather conditions permit. Reterrace fields that should be reterraced. See that your terraces are not cutting down at the ends. Plan your crops with erosion control in mind. Keep cloan-cutivaled crops off steep slopes, which should bo sown in some erosion-resisting crop for forages. Use your land for the crop for which it is best adapted and keep your topsoil at home. OLD-DAY STEINS GET A MODERN NAME SAKE Three and four centuries ago our forefathers drank their mellow, oldtime beer from elaborately designed, stone steins. Today our generation can get its beer in a namesake of the illustrious, ancient stein: The modern Schlitz "Steinie" Brown Bottle. This up-to-date beer container with its squat lines is faintly reminiscent of the old stein, but is obviously quite different in its purpose. * Yet both stein and "Steinie" are designed j for. greatest usefulness to their re- i spective generations. Though we moderns may look at a heavy, old stein and wonder just why it was built as it Is. that stein had a very definite purpose during its active life. In those olden days there was no refrigeration and many a good, burgo-master sat for hours in a quiet beer garden, sipping slowly of his mellow beer. For bucIi conditions the thick earthenware walls of the old stein held the beer close to the temperattiYe at which it was drawn for a long period of time, so that the last sip was almost as cooling and delicious as the first. Today, in our country, refrigeration has eliminated the need for heavywalled beer containers, and the stein has evolved into the squat, compact, handy "Steinie" Brown Bottle which is designed to meet the radically changed conditions of modern living.
