( Constipation throws into the system j poisons which taint and weaken , every organ of the body and make , them easy victims for any germs "j which attack them. Prevent constipa- > Hion and you will avoid nine-tenths of all diseases, with their consequent ; pain and financial losses.

X M?y?r/ Manager ?j FEED CORN TO HOGS ! TO GET BEST PRICE "The most profitable method of marketing corn this year, and probab i ly for the next two years, is by feeding it to hogs and then marketing the hogs," W. W. Shay, swine extension Specialist of State College, says, in speaking of the low price of corn and i the profit to be made in hogs at the [present time. "Feeding corn to hogs is the safest farm investment and the surest way to make a profit in farm ing this year." | If the corn is produced at a low cost per bushel, Mr. Shay says that it is always profitable to feed such com to hogs. Even, if the corn is high in price per bushel or the yield per acrc I is low, the feeding of corn to hogs will increase its bushel value. "When the fanner has a big loss in the cost of corn, due to low production per acre, this loss can be cut down by feeding to hogs, but not always elim inated. The person who cannot produce at least 80 bushels of corn or more to the acrc had best tfLay out of the hog raising business. Self-feeder demonstrations in the eastern part of the state this past year showed that corn will increase enormously in value if fed to hogs. One demonstration showed a profit of 485 per cent on corn by such feeding, despite the death of one hog during the demonstration. The hogs, in this case, ate 209 bushels of corn, which would have brought $188.10 if sold.as corn. After paying all other charges and deducting the value of the hou which died, $19.75, the hogs still paid a profit of $285.94 for the corn and left plant food worth $49.35 on ^ ihe farm, whereas $31.35 worth of i :he plant food would have gone out < with the corn, had it been sold. The > >ther two demonstrations proved fhe < same thing. In the demonstrations, 1 ;he hogs were put on self-feeders > lalf the time and then turned in on i itanding corn, supplemented with fish ,< neal. (c The raising of plenty of corn and c logs will be a great boost for the c 'Live-at-Home' 'movement, Mr. Shay >elieves. He wants many hog feeding lemonstrations this year, with ac- J urate records kept. [SCHOLARSHIP IS PRIZE FOR ESSAY Local high school girls arc to have j a chance to win an university sCholar- j | ship through participation in an es | say contest which has just been ? launched Announcement of this event, the ! Eighth National Meat Story Contest, has been received from the National Live Stock and Meat Board headquar ters in Chicago. The Board is sponsor of the contest which, it is said, also has the endorsement of the bureau of Home Economics of the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture, the home eco- < nomics department of a number of : state universities and colleges, and i high school home economics teachers. Each year since the first contest in ] 1924, between ten and fifteen thous- j and girls have been entered by their ( teachers and it is expected that the j enrollment for 1931 will at least equal , and perhaps surpass that of previous j years. In addition to the university ; scholarships there will be cash awards ' . for every state, it is said. i Judging of the stories will be in 1 the hands of a committee of promin- c ent home economics authorities. This s committee has not been selected as ! yet, says the announcement; however, 1 it is planned to Include persons of (t similar position to those of last i year's committee which was made up t of Dr. Margaret Justin, dean of the t Division of Home Economics, Kansas c State Agricultural College; MissJef- s sie Alice Cline, assistant professor, a University of Missouri; Mrs. Kath-|\ ryn Niles, University of Minnesota; c and Mrs. Caroline B. King, associate b ?ditor of the Country Gentleman. d Contestants will be given complete \ freedom in the selection of subjects s so long as they deal with some phase I >f meat such as production, market- C ng. selection, cooking, place in the li liet, etc. t Announcement of the contest has d >een sent to high school home eco- r lomics teachers throughout the en- E ire country and it is said that many v >f them already have entered their t: l:-.sses.
