It will pay to hog down corn. This has been shown by the Mis- souri Agricultural Experiment Station and has been done prof- itably by a large number of feed- ers. The main advantages are: (1) the hogs make rapid and more economical gains; (2) it saves the pees to judge the labor of harvesting; (3) the man- TU raghy ev eO eco ano ure is returned to the land with- out loss and without labor; (4) the place of feeding is more s.n- itary than the ordinary feed lot; (5) the grain is harvested with- out waste. Eleven hogging trials with cultural Experiment Station have shown that there is no better way of finishing hogs than by allow- ing them to-do their oyvn harvest- ing. To be profitable, however, the practice must be rightly man- aged. The hogs should be given access at one time, to what they will clean up in ten days or two weeks. This insures fresh forage and they will clean it- up well as they go. <A cheap efficient tem- porary fence is made with wov- en wire. Get the hogs on a full feed of new corn before turning them in- to the field by _ cutting a few stalks ‘at first and increasing gradually. The corn is in good condition to turn into when the dent has just formed in the ker- nel, For best results the hogs doing their own harvesting should re- ceive some feed in addition to the corn, This supplement may be supplied with crops like rape,} soybeans, ete., which should have been grown in the corn field that is to be harvestéd. If no such crops have been planted a smal amount of some feed like tank- age should be fed. Good results ean be secured ‘by supplying tankage in a self feeder. If hand feeding is preferred 1-4 to 1-2 pound of tankage a day for each 100 pounds of live weight gives good results. Citizen-Teacher Association The meeting at the court house Thursday evening for the pur- pose of organizing a_ parent- teachers association .was well at- tended, about 400 being present. The meeting was called for the purpose of better co-operation be- tween teachers .and parents and for the general betterment of the Butler public schools. Rev. R. M.

Denton, A. H. Culver and J. A. DeArmond each made short addresses em- phasizing the need of some sort of an organization of teachers and citizens. Miss. Anna B.

Germany Gives Ambassador Au- thority to Settle Submarine Controversy With America. Berlin (Via London), Sept. 18. —A full settlement_of the subma- rine problem probably can be ar- ranged by negotiations in Wash- ington. Count von’ Bernstorff, G rman Ambassador to the Unit- ed States, is in possession of com- plete information regarding the wishes and policy of Germany, so The Associated Press is informed, and has been given power to ne- gotiate terms of settlement with the United States subject only to final revision and approval by the home Government. A long report on the submarine situation was received here from Count Von Bernstorff Thursday and an equally long message of. instructions went forward to the Ambassador this morning. -Both dispatches were of a nature which seems to make officials confident that the whole subma- tine problem can be settled speed- ily and safely, The form which the negotia- tions are tae td taking. goes - strengthen this optimism. n such conversations ‘Count von Bernstorff is in: a position to com-'| munieate many things not adapt- ed: to inclusion in a public note, but which are ature to. con- dissolve in six gallons of boiling |' water. ment. ‘ : Pour 2 into 1, and then add Alum added ‘to a lime. whi wash prevents it robbing ff. ounce to the gallor Flour paste 3.
