Williams, livestock speciali’st, of the Extension Service, in discussing profitable hog production in South Carolina. This means that the bog must go to the slaughter at eight to ten niotnhs *of age, weighing two hundred pounds. This is not an unusual weight for hogs at eight months. Recently one feeder averaged over two hundred on twelve head at five months. To’make profits from hogs 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, “How can I make the most hog, in the least time at the lowest cost?” Plenty of feed provided ahead *of time is the solution. Pigs farrowed in Jan nary and February should he ready for the October and November mar kets. Start now and provide the feeds that wijl be needed this fall.

Ki-Gorernor Feme of Michigan, now a college president, a life-long ad vocate of thrift, tells of his own thrif ty training: *Tn ray youth If I had a toy. I *made it, and made it not to suit myself alone but it had to suit xny father as well. His eraraination of my work and hli Insistence that I should put the beet there was in rae even Into my toys put Into my back a spine and sufficient lime to last a lifetime.” Thrift was the keynote of success In the life of the late James J. Hill. He was one of the country’s most con- elatent exponent? of thrift, ocie of the greatest examplars of what this vir tue combined with energy’ and high purpose, can do. He preached always that the man who cannot save money will be a failure; that though he may have education, talent and ability, wtthont thrifty habits he cannot suc ceed.

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. Give 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 tianes daily. On the fourth day begin alternating rolled oats with some coarse hominy or com mercial chick feed. The latter is preferable because It contains also millet seed and cracked wheat.
