What are some of the most common forage crops and pastures for hogs? Rape, rye, Bermuda grass, oats, barley, crimson clover, sorghum, and . alfalfa. . v.. ri , 2. Why is it necessary to have pasture crops for hogs? Hogs on forage crops will make cheaper grains, and will be more sanitary and more healthy. 3. Is it necessary to feed , a pig gr^iin when it is running on pasture? Yes, a pig should receive grain -while on pasture. If he does not receive some .concentrates he will not make satisfactory gains. 4. If a pig weighs 100 pounds how much grain should he receive ptfr day? * He should receive from 2 to 4 pounds per day. That means from 3 to 4 per cent, of his body. 5. What variety of rape should he grown? The Dwarf Essex variety is decidedly the best. 6. What variety of rye should be grown for pasture? A'bbruzzi ryev gives best results. <7. Does rape pasture ever get too cqarse for hogs? AMAwnA o t*T rt/V/1 TT x eo, i aye gets waisc auu nuuuj. I f ' - It is best for a pasture when it is about a foot high. The hog has a stomach which is not prepared to< handle large ajnounts of roughages. I 8. Why do hogs on rape pasture; sometimes have skin scald? This is because they are turnedon the pasture while the dew is on. If kept off until the dew dries off, they will not scald. 9. Which is more likely to skin scald a white or a black hog? The white hog is more likely to ! scald because its skin seems more' tender. 10. Is it necessary to have shade for "pigs? Yes, shade is necessary. Pigs sometimes die of heat prostration, j If pi'?s are to make economical gains j Uiey musi De comioriaoie. 11. Which is better, running wa-? ter or a stagnant pool? Running water is the better, j Stagnant mudwallows are often causes of diseases. 12. At what age should pigs be weaned? Pigs should be weaned when from j 8 to 10 weeks of age. 13. How may pigs be taught to eat before weaning? They first learn to eat with their mother. A pig creep should be built where the pigs can go to eat and the sow can not. 14. How may pigs be yeaned without spoiling* the udder of the sow? The ration of the sow should be reduced by one-half. 15. Which is the better, to take the sow away from the pigs or take the pigs away from the sow? It is usually better to take the sow away from the pigs, as they will fret less than when they are placed in new quarters. ..., * . i i,* .|. .f * ? ?i< * * * >: * >i. 'i' * * * * ??* * * /F - - - !

He did what he thought was right, tee is not a great speaker like "my friend Yarley; if I were I would be runningj for the senate or something like that." He wants the job and wants It bad. J. Q. Copeland, who also held the office some years, is again asking for election. He is an old Confederate veteran, was a member of company G. He would like to have the job. He can do just what Yarley and Kinard have done?go to the court house and draw his salary. However, he promised to go himself or send his deputy wherever he was needed if elected, but he won't charge for the services of both. J. H. Bazzle is running for cotton weigher, but as the boll weevil has been so busy, Mr. Bazzle did not appear at the meeting. Kearse for the House. Representative J C. Kearse was next called upon. He recalled that he got all but six or seven votes at Ehrhardt two years ago. The statement had been made, he said that a farmer should be elected, and he reminded his hearers that he was born and raised on the farm, near Ehr narat, ana ne owns a tarm m the Kearse section. Said he came before the people to give an account of his services. He reiterated that there are too many laws, and that about half of them ought to be Repealed. He favors fewer and simple laws. The chief question, he said, is taxes, and his chief work in the legislature has been to reduce them. Legislatures of past years so increased levies that the burden was too heavy. Useless commissions were created, pets given jobs, and now the old liners do not want to legislate them out of office. He told of his part in reducing the appropriations by $700, 000 without injuring any of the essentials, such as schools, etc. Our tax system is antiquated, he said, and the burden has been so unequal that it is more than most people can bear, whereas many others able to pay escape entirely, or rather have been escaping, as the last legislature did much in tax reform, and many new sources of taxes were put on "the books. He told of a million dollar a year business fh the state which has been paying taxes on nothnig but office furniture. He told of reducing the state levy from 12 to 7 mills and the county taxes by 35 per cent. The new tax sources only affect people able to pay, and seek to relieve the tremendous burden on visible property. Bamberg's taxes are lower than surrounding counties and 30 per cent, lower than an average of the state. Federal aid money has been matched dollar for dollar without appropriating a single extra dollar by bonds, etc. He believes in paying as we go, and will never stand for bond issues. But our taxes are not lower enough yet, he said, we must reduce more. Will continue to fight to cut off useless offices and commissions, and will fight the efforts to centralize power in Columbia. Again pays his respects to the tax commission and the welfare board, the former of which he said was powerful and dangerous, wielding more power than the assembly, which worked for weeks to reduce taxes, and the commission increased them with one sweep of the hand, although the commission had been forced to take water and put Bamberg county back where it was. The welfare board, he said, has no excuse for existence. H"e discussed briefly proposed tightening up of the labor laws; favors liberal treatment of the Confederate veterans, and liberal appropriations for common schools, though he favors Economical management of school funds. Riley for the House. Rpnrpspntfltivp Rilp.v has sprveri eight years in the house, and is vice chairman of the ways and means committee, which gives him prestige in the house, art! fits him for better serVice in the future than ever before. He said he woul i decline to discuss himself, and confine his remarks to the issues. The tax matter took most of his time, and he said he would like to make it plain that he does not defend high taxes, but explained to the people why their taxes are high, saying that during prosperous time appropriations went the highest in history, but he wants to see them just as low as possible, but no one wants to close down the schools and colleges or cripple the other state institutions, and he hopes he will never see the day when this is necessary. He explained how taxes might be lowered by perfecting the tax reforms inaugurated at the last general assembly, though he reminded the people that 75 per cent, of all tax money is spent here in Bkmberg county for schools, roads, and salaries of county officials. The road tax has already been reduced from $5 to $3, and the special road levy can be taken off when the present road work is completed, if the people wish it, and then confine road work to chain gang construction. He favors reduced appropriations for all state institutions, but he does not want to see any of them crippled. The principle relief, as he sees it, rests in carrying out the tax reforms; present tax sources are too sorely burdened. In order to show just what he meant, he exhibited a chart showing comparative figures of tax sources in the past and tax sources advocated in the tax reform bills, some of which have already been enacted. The nhart showed tax sources as follows under the old system: Visible property $5,500,000 Corporation licenses fees.. 475,000 Department fees....\ 175,000 The , tax reform bills would distribute^ the taxes as follows: Visible property tax :..$1,200,000 Corporation license fees .. 650,000 Department fees 175,000 Income tax _ 1,200,000 Inheritance tfax 400,000 Luxury tax 900,000 Water power tax 150,000 Gasoline tax 450,000 Thus the levy would be reduced to three mills on visible property and afford property owners much needed relief. .He did not claim responsibility for what has been accomplished, but he thinks he should have credit for his part in the reform. Mr. Riley, in regard to the much discussed useless commissions, said he does not recall ever having voted for a sinsrle one of them, and was not acquainted with any officer connected with these various boards; they are no pets of his. He made this statement for fear some might thin^ he favored these offices. He feels that as a farmer and bank director he is in touch with the business of the county, and believes that he is position to render better service than ever. He made the remark in his speech that if he had consulted his political future he would possibly have acted different on some occai cirmc but hp had done what hp con sidereci was right regardless of his own political interests. !
