SE PORK SUPPLY United States Department of Agricul­ ture la Organizing Farm Youths l» All Parts of Country-- 45,000 Members Enrolled. (Prepared by the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) Motion pictures, to be shown in picture theaters in all parts of the United States, will show the work of the boys' pig clubs which the United States department of agriculture is or­ ganizing in all parts of the country in co-operation with the extension di­ visions of the state agricultural col­ leges. The Pig Club film Is the sec­ ond of a series of offi^al films of the department, to be released through one of the large motion picture companies which is to distribute them. This ed­ ucational film will help to increase the pork supply. It shows the method of Instructing farm boys, and in some in­ stances girls, who have joined the ag­ ricultural clubs, how to raise better pigs, and the methods used by club members in carrying out instructions. The first pig club was organized in Louisiana in 1910. Now approximate­ ly 45,000 members are enrolled in the pig clubs throughout the country. Best Methods to Be Shown. The first lesson taught in the film story is that it costs no more to feed and care for the pig of carefully se­ lected stock than the scrub, while the results in meat produced is greatly in favor of the well-bred animal. The picture shows further how to feed and care for the pigs, how to protect them 00W BETTER WITHOUT HORNS Danger of Animals Hooking Each Othsr Is Eliminated--Apply Caustic Potash on Calf. (Prepared by the United Btatea Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) In the average dairy it is better that cows be without horns, as the danger of their hooking one another is thus prevented. Only in purebred * herds, where the appearance of the herd is considered important from a show or stile poiRt of view, is there any justifi­ cation for allowing horns to grow. It is much easier to prevent the growth of horns than to remove thein. The points that ultimately will de­ velop into horns can be felt as small buttons imbedded in the skin. The pre­ vention is most effective if the treat­ ment is applied when the buttons are Just large enough to be felt, which is usually the third and the seventh days. To prevent their development, the hair Rhould be removed from the horn but­ tons ; a stick of caustic potash or soda, wrapped in paper to protect the hands of the operator, is then moistened with water and rubbed on each horn btittoo two or three times, allowing the caus­ tic to dry after each application. Carb should be taken to apply the caustic, which should not be too moist, to the buttons only, for If it touches the sur­ rounding skin It will cause unnecessary pain. Immediately after the applica­ tion the calf also should be protected from rain, in order to prevent the caus­ tic from spreading. If the operation Is carefully performed the horns will make no growth. If scurs or horn growths appear, it Is an indication that the caustic was not properly applied. WEEDS ARE VALUABLE CROPS Only Short Time Ago Tomato Wat Generally Believed to Be Poison­ ous--Clover Wss Despised. The weeds of yesterday may become the cultivated crops of tomorrow.

"The practicability of producing rapid increase In the pork supply and of bringing greatly increased profits to the farmers who produce it are lessons which the bureau of ani­ mal Industry wishes to call to the at­ tention of all farmers," says an offi­ cial of that bureau, "and it has been found that education of the farm youths is bringing about valuable in­ direct education of their elders In the possibilities of more profitable hog lots. "It has become urgently important, as a war measure, that this country greatly Increase Its production of foodstuffs, especially of meats and fats. They are needed for our people at home, for our armies abroad, and for the armies and people of the en­ tente nations. While the department of agriculture is working hard to In­ crease our supply of beef, effective in­ creases in the number of the country's cattle is necessarily slow, while much more rapid results can be obtained in the production of pork, as well as mut­ ton." MANURE APPLIED IN WINTER which grows so profusely along the roadside in many states, was a de­ spised weed. Now it is a valuable for­ age crop and soil improver, the demand for the seed being greater than the supply. Western farmers are finding that even the much-detested Hessian thistle makes good silage for stock feeding. Every plant that grows has a useful place In the economy of nature. That some plants are weeds is because we have not yet learned how to utilise them to our advantage. CORN PRODUCES SLOW GAINS It Is Deficient in Protein and MinersI Matter Necessary for Grow­ ing Animals. When fed alone to young pigs, corn produces * relatively slow gains at a high feed cost. Supplemental protein feeds will make faster gains at a lower feed requirement per unit of gain. While corn is the chief feed for fat­ tening hogs. It is deficient in protein and mineral matter necessary for growing animals. A food rich in pro­ tein and minerals when fed with corn is, therefore, highly beneficial. Advantageous to Asparagus snd Rhu- . barb st This Tims--Some Uss Large Amounts. Stable manure may be applied ad­ vantageously at this time to asparagus and rhubarb. Intensive growers use large amounts as 2f> tons to the acre, but half this quantity will be found of great value.

FOUNDACONTINENT t Captain Nathaniel 8, palmer in Front Rank of Explorers. * Stonlngton, Conn., Was Birthplace of Brave Sailor Who Was the First to Discover Land in • Great Antarctic Ocean. t American sailors have in more than one instance proven, while following their pursuits, to be explorers of the first, magnitude. This fact is recalled in. the case of Capt. Nathaniel B. Palmer, a native of Stonlngton, Conn., a port that once supported a , prosperous fleet of mer­ chant vessels. Captain Palmer, when twenty years old, discovered the Antarctic continent. Today Captain Palmer's ®ld home In the quiet seashore town of his birth Is a place honored by resident and visi­ tor alike, while a few miles from It, at Noank, a famous old shipyard, bearing still the name of Palmer, is perpetuat­ ing the traditions of the locality by turning out ships for the new merchant marine, under the construction pro­ gram of the United States shipping board. Captain Palmer was an active, strong, aggressive character. When as a lad of eighteen he made a voyage on the brig Hersilla as second mate, It chanced that he was landed at the Falkland islands to kill wild bullocks for meat, while his ship sailed away in search of an island of which the Yan bee captains had heard vague stories, but had never seen. In the absence of the Hersllia an Ar­ gentine vessel, the Esplrlto Santo, touched at the Falklands for water. Her captain told young Palmer that he was bound for a place where there were thousands of seals. The Argentlno sailed-away before the Hersilla came back; but on his vessel's return, young Palmer Insisted that she put after the Espirito Santo, In hope of finding the strange Island. This was done, and after many days' sailing, the Yankee brig found not only the vessel she had followed, but Is­ lands to that time unknown In North America, the South Shetlands. In 1821, Nathaniel Palmer, as com­ mander of a Stonlngton sloop, the Hero, sailed again to the South Shet­ lands for seals. Finding the seals near­ ly exterminated thore, he sailed far­ ther and farther in search of new seal­ ing grounds, stopping only when he sighted land not laid down on any ehart. There were numerous Islands, nnd beyond them a wild coastline and 31m mountains. One night the Hero lay becalmed In a thick fog that enveloped her like a blanket. After taking the deck at mid­ night for the middle watch. Captain Palmer was astonished when his man at the helm struck one bell, to hear the sound repeated twice. The same thing happened at two bells and so on through the watch. Superstition had not left the seas In those days, and the men of the watch deck were alarmed. At seven bells the fog lifted a little, and two men-of-war were seen not more than a mile away. After the United States ensign was run up at the main peak of the Hero, one of the warships sent a boat alongside with an Invitation from Commander Belllng- hausen of the Russian navy for the captain of the American sloop to come on board his ship. Captain Palmer went Just as he was dressed--in sea boots and sou'wester. The scene was one of Impressive con­ trasts when Captain Palmer stepped Into the commander's luxurious cabin. The polished, accomplished Russian commander Insisted on sitting down to luncheon with the rugged young Yan­ kee In sea boots, a meal that Captain Palmer found elaborate, after the fare on the Hero. The Russian officer had been two years on a voyage of discovery. He examined keenly the chart and log­ book of the Hero, and questioned Cap­ tain Palmer at length concerning the land he had found. Finally the commander arose, placed his hand upon the young captain's head, and said: "I name the land you have discovered 'Palmer Land' In your honor; but what will my august mas­ ter say, and what will he think of my cruising for two years in search of the land that has been discovered by a boy. In a sloop only a little larger than the launch of my frigate?" Islands named for Peter and Alexan­ der are still so designated on charts 01 that part of the Auiufc'iii-; but the land found by the boy captain of Ston Ington appears on every chart of that part of the world as "Palmer Archl pelago." It was nearly 20 years after Captain Palmer's discovery that the rim of the Antarctic continent was explored, by an Englishman, Sir James Ross, of the famous Erebus and Terror expedition.

More attention than ever before Is being paid this winter to careful use of exhaust steam In power plants, it may be applied to innumerable pur­ poses, such as heating feed water for the steam boiler, for many washing purposes, heating buildings, pasteuris­ ing and sterilizing and the like. A small investment in additional boiler room equipment, such ait an exhaust- steam heater, will effect savings of several hundred dollars a year In the coal bill of even a moderate sized pow­ er plant. m wmm OF Food Production Should Be In­ creased at All Cost Women Gain on Men. Professor Phillips of Amherst col­ lege believes that the American wom­ en of today are physically much finer and stronger than the women of yes­ terday. and that if the women continue their physical improvement in the suc­ ceeding generations as much as they have in the last generation, it will not be many centuries off when the Amer­ ican women will be as physical equal and fit as the American men. - * 1tt" his letter to the public on the 1st of . January, Hon. W. J. llanna. Can­ ada's Food Controller, says:-- "Authoritative information has reached me that food shortage in Eu­ rope is terribly real, and only the sternest resolve on the part of the pro­ ducers, and equally stern economies on the part of air as consumers, can pos­ sibly save the situation. "France last year had a crop be­ tween one-third and one-half that of a normal year. Women did the work of draught animals in a determined effort to make the impoverished soil of France produce every possible ounce of food. They now look to us to make up their deficiency of essential sup­ plies. "The harvest In Italy was far below normal and will require much larger supplies to feed her people until next harvest "It is impossible for the allies to spare many cargo carriers to transport foodstuff from India, Australia, New Zealand and even the Argentine Repub­ lic. This means that the allied nations are practically dependent upon North America to supply them with the food which must be forthcoming if terrible suffering is to be avoided and the fight­ ing efficiency of the armies maintained. "On December 1, the United States had not ia single bushel of wheat for export, after allowance was made for domestic requirements on the basis of normal consumption, and the United States Food Administration Is endeav­ oring to bring about a reduction of 20 per cent in home consumption of wheat and flour. This would release 100.000,- 060 bushels for export, but the Allies will require nearly five times that amount before the 1918 harvest. Canada is the only cotmtry In the world, practically accessible to the Al­ lies under present conditions of ship­ ping shortage, which has an actual ex­ portable surplus of wheat after allow­ ance for normal home requirements. The surplus today Is not more than 110,000,000 bushels. A reduction of 20 per cent in our normal consumption would save an additional 10,000,000 bushels for export. The outlook for production of food stuffs in Europe next year is distinctly unfavorable. "Such Is the situation--grave beyond anything that we thought possible a few months ago. Unless our people are aroused to a realization of what the world shortage means to us, to our soldiers and to our Allies, and of the terrible possibilities which it entails, disaster is inevitable. "Production, too, must be Increased to the greatest possible extent. Pres­ ent war conditions demand extraordi­ nary efforts, and every man, woman, boy or girt who can produce food has a national duty to do so. "I am confident that when the people of this country realize that the food situation is of utmost gravity they will willingly adjust themselves to the ne­ cessities of the case and make what­ ever sacrifices may be required. The call which is made upon them is in the name of the Canadian soldiers at the front, the allied armies, and the civilian populations of the allied na­ tions who have already made food sac­ rifices to an extent little realized •»* the people of this country." Here is an appeal made by a man, upon whom rests the great responsibil­ ity of assisting in providing food for the allies and the soldiers at the front who are fighting the battles in mud and blood. It cannot be ignored. At home we are living In luxury and ex­ travagance Inclined to idleness and for- getfulness. This must cease. We must save and produce. Our lands must be tilled no matter where It may be, in Canada or the United States. It Is our duty to cultivate. Spleqdid oppor­ tunities in the United States are open for further cultivation of lands. West­ ern Canada also offers opportunities in high producing lands at low prices. Decide for yourself where you can do the most good, on land In the United States or in Canada, and get to work quickly.--Advertisement Who Do I Give This Car To? YOU?
