This 11th day of March, 1916. C. E. Warner, Mortgagee. More and better live stock is a mighty good 1916 slogan for Mc Dowell farmers. Story of Three Pigs. College Station, Tex., Mar. 7.— To the boy who is iotprested in the farm there is no mor^ interesting or profitable farm work than rais ing pigs. Were I a younger boy and back in dear old North Caro lina I sure would join the pig club. At least that is what I used to think I would do. I think so yet but for one thing. Last year the boys let the girls beat them. Miss Rachel Spears of Forsyth county won the State championship prize in the pig clubs for 1915. Boys, get an old hen and set her, and see whether you can raise some chickens. But my! wouldn’t that young lassie make some laddie a desirable wife. He wouldn’t have a thing to do but get the bread. She would get the meat. I started out to tell the boys a story of three pigs; but since the girls are the real pig raisers in North Carolina, I have changed my mind and shall tell it to the girls. Girls, the profits you make out of your pigs depend upon the way you feed them. Last year the Ex periment Station out here in Texas fed three pigs in the three custom ary ways of feeding pigs. They were named “Tom,” “Dick” and “Harry.” They were litter mates and were much alike in conforma tion and thriftiness. When they had been weaned a week and were 6^ days old, they were weighed and plit on feed. “Tom” weighed 24.5 pounds, “Dick” 27 pounds, and “Harry”30.5 pounds. Note “Har ry” weighed the most. Six months. Rubbiiig Ea^s Pain Rubbing sends the liniment tingling through the flesh and quickly ^ops pain. Demand a liniment that you can rub with. The be^ rubbing liniment is MUSTANG LINIMENT Good for the Ailments of Flocses, Mules, Cattle, Etc. Qoodfor your own Aches, F’ains, Rheumatism, Sprains, Cuts, Burns, Etc. 25c. 50c. $1. At aU Deakrt. or 180 days later, when they were 8 months old, they were again weighed. They were now ready for the market. At this final weighing “Tom” weighed 330 pounds, a gain of 305.5 pounds “Dick” weighed 277 pounds, a gain of 250 pounds; “Harry” weighed 125 pounds, a gain of only 94. pounds. Why such a poor show ing with “Harry”? He weighed most at first. It all depended upon the way they were fed. “Tom” was al lowed to run in a pasture where he could eat all the grass and cloyer he wanted. He was also fed all the miio chops and the skimmed milk in the proportion of one pound of miio chops to 2i pounds of skimmed milk that he would eat up clean. “Dick” was put in a dry lot and also fed all the miio chops and the skimmed milk in the same proportion that he would eat up clean. “Harry” was put in dry lot and fed all the miio chops and the water he would eat. Wat er, however, is not a very fatten ing fe 3d. The skimmed milk gave “Dick” the lead over “Harry,” and the clover in the pasture and the skimmed milk gave “Tom” the lead over both the other two. Out here where it does not rain enough to grow corn like it grows in North Carolina, most of the farmers instead of corn raise miio maize and kaffir corn. The first time one sees these crops they can not tell them from ordinary cane. They are the same kind of feed as corn and ten pounds of this feed equals nine pounds of corn. At the final weighing they were marketed. After deducting their market value when pul on feed and paying for their feed and care dur ing the fattening period, there was a net gain of $11.62 on “Tom”; $6 39 on “Dick”; and a loss of 22 cents on poor old “Harry.” “Har ry” was not a sickly puny hog by any means. He was a round slick, hard healthy hog. He just didn’t grow big like his brothers. Like girls and boys he could not do well on bread and water alone. At the end it was found that “Tom” had consumed $10.89 worth of feed; “Dick” $11.62 worth, and Harry” only $4.89 worth. He grew tired of eating only one thing, Girls, the story of these three pigs gives you the key to the situ ation. For your pigs have a per manent pasture, a mixture of grass and clover. Make temporary pas tures by sowing rape, soy beans, cow peas. If you have some sandy land plant ground -peas. Nothing excells them for hog feed. Finish oh corn. For the last 25 or 30 days of the fattening period, mak« the ration two-thirds corn and one third cotton seed meal by weight. G. M. Garren. ,Mushroom Farm for Buncombe. Asheville Times. John E. Nichols, formerly of Person county, now of Asheville, is planning to establish a mushroom industry near Asheville that will be among other things a decidedly good advertisement for the city. According to the investigations of the United States department of agriculture, western North Caro lina is one of the few places in the country where this edible fungus attains perfection. Eureka, Cali fornia, Asheville territory and Blowing Rock are said to be especi ally adapted in climate and altitude for the production of this delicacy, highly esteemed for table use. It is said that 500 or 600 varieties can be grown here. Mr. S. H. Hobbs of Sampson county, who is prominently identi fied with the State Farmers* Union, is a candidate for Commissioner of Agriculture to succeed Major Graham. ANOTHER MARION CASE It Proves That There’s A Way Out for Many Suffering Marion Folks. Just another report of a case in Ma rion. Another typical case. Kidney ailments relieved in Marion with Doan’s Elidney Pills. J. F. Williams, mgr. Telephone Co., Johnson St., Marion, says- “I was all run down from kidney trouble and the best doctors in the state held out no hope for my recovery. I had rheuma tic twinges throughout my body, was extremely nervous and didn’t sleep well. The kidney secretions were scanty and scalded in passage. I got Doan's Kid ney Pills at Streetman’s Drug Store and they cured me.” (Statement giVehFeb ruary 10th, 1911.) Over Three Years Later Mr. Willians said: “Since I recommended Doan’s Kidney Pills, I have had no sign of kid ney trouble. I think they saved my Ufe.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t sim ply ask for a kidney remedy—^get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Wil« liams has twice publicly recommended. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.
