You will, very naturally, feel skeptical about : so strong a claim. But before hundreds of audiences Thos. A. Edison has -conducted his i} - famous “tone tests” in which the instrument was pitted against the artist and invariably the verdict was the same; no difference could be de- tected. In a “tone test,” the artist sings in his natural voice; then suddenly ceases, leaving the | instrument to continue the song alone.

The prices ‘received on-foot for hogs in Connecticut ranged from 18 to 22 cents a few weeks ago when ‘in Illinois hfeeders reported a price of about 15% o. and in Alabama 15¢c. per pound. Most of the hogs sold in this state go to a local butcher -so that only one man- getz a profit be- tween the producer and consumer.

With-the lights lowered not one could tell when the change took place. 500 unpre- judiced newspapers critics who witnessed the re- citals unite in this assertion. - In this new in- strument Mr. Edison has actually succeeded in re-creating the human voice.

A common objection raised against increasing.-the, number of hogs grown in this state'is that it is too cold.

It is mecessary tb use small fields in furnishing a succession of grazing crop to hogs. . This great disadvantage ex- perienced in many types of farming in this state is thus overcome in swine growing. The hog hardly .has a4 rival as a profitable consumer of wastes about the farm. ' The fallen fruit, grain shattered in harvesting, ekin milk, un- marketable vegetables, heated grain, ieoft .corn, and table wastes are all readlly eaten by this obliging animal. Much of the soft corn lost in 1917 could have ‘been utilized if there had heen a sufficient number of hogs to consume it. Garbage from villages and cities can usually be fed quite prefitably by the ‘farmers in the surrounding rural districts. Causes of Poor Success Here, It is often said, and with good rea- son, that very little money is made on The cause for this is found in the deplorably poor breed- ing and management practiced by. the these being worse than in any other part of the country. In many cases close inbreeding is lol- lowed for generation after generation.

The ‘cow generally gives us one calf; sheep gives us one ewe; but the sow gives us a litter, Jordan, in “The Feeding of ‘Antmals,” proves that the hog will make more than five times the real food value that a steer or a sheep can make from the same amount of grain feed. the. transportation of frosh meats special cars are necessary.
