THURSDAY, JAN. 28, 193? THE FRANKLIN PRESS AND THE HIGHLANDS MAC0N1AN PAGE SEVEN Highlands Highlights EDITED BY MRS. T. C. HARBISON HIGHLANDS EXPERIENCES MONTH OF RAIN, HIGHLANDS, Jan 27. During tins year , up. to the 27th day of January, there has been in High lands no twenty-four-hour period without ran, and this season of rain had on January 26 been al most continuous for one month. At three different times the sun shone about all day, but fog or rain set in again at dusk or during the night. Dense fog also has been fair ly, continuous throughout the month except when cleared by rain or for, the less than a half-doze'n in tervals when the sun came out for periods usially only a few minutes in duration.v The temperature, how ever has been extremely mild for this vicinity ;t this period, and the official weather report at the end of the month will probably show that this has-been the mildest Jan uary on 1 record. The mild , temperature and rain have brought out plants which nor mally do not come up until weeks later. Some of these plants which are now growing in Highlands gardens include iris, phlox, Shasta daisies, golden-glow, V and lillies. Fox-glove and coreopsis plants have remained unfrozen all winter. Daf fodils, . jasmine,' and violets are in bloom in places. These planjs, along with the fruit buds, which will be gin to swell soon if warm temper-' ature continues, will no doubt be killed by later freezes, in which case another . year of fruit crop failure in this section is predicted. Jlowever, should the weather turn cold gradually at an early date, it is probable that no harm to fruit will follow this unusually mild weather.

Hogs Need Green 5 Feed During Winter Months Green feed will help keep the swine herd vigorous and healthy during the winter months: , When possible, hogs should be allowed to graze on green - forage. If pasturage is not available, a green, leafy, legume hay ,should be fed, -said H. W. Taylor, extension swine specialist at State college. Green feed contains vitamin A, which is essential -for healthy swine, he continued. Alfalfa, soy bean, and lespedeza hays make good winter feed. After pigs have reached 'a they should weight of 85 pounds, be put on a feed of corn and fish meal or tankage. Cottonseed meal may be mixed with the fish meal or tankage, in equal parts, if de sired. The corn and protein supplement should, of course, be balanced with an abundance of leafy, green feed, he said. . This ration, if fed until the pigs attain a weight of 200 to 225 pounds, will produce pork that is firm and well marbled, Taylor pointed out. 4T m GH3: to jDdiftftU ' att:zadti::ics says Champion Figure Skater BETTY CHASE "I LOVE TO SMOKE Camels with meals and after wards," adds this graceful athlete.
