The present proud position of the Holland schools is due mainly to the high standing impressed on them and the healthy impulses given their management by the principal, Prof Kd. H. Kunz, who spares no laboi to make our schools con pare favor bly with any city school in Southern Indiana. Another room should be built to the school house or the upper room divided and one more teajher employed for the intermediate grades, then Prof. Kunz could give attention exclusively to higl school work. We understand that this move i. contemplated for out schools by our efficient trustee, Mr J. E. Steinkamp and County Sup
erintendent Geo R. Wilson. Th patrons of the school certainly hope it will be carried out before the be ginning of another school year. Then our children can be educated at home thus, saving the expense and inconvenience of sending them elsewhere. A higher education ir almost indispensable to one living in this progresi-ive age if he wishes to succeed in any trade, calling 01 profession. In the field of medi cine, law, teaching, ministry, poll tics, etc., require special training, and anyone who wishes to enter these, requires a thorough educn tion, otherwise he will find his seat fixed for him far in the rear. The
old adage is still true, "Knowledge is Power." Hence, patrons, let uaid our school in every wav we can, and we will thus aid our chiidren most. F. W.

For the past three years we have repeatedly claimed that W. E. Cox
was the ablest prosecuting attorney
the county ever had, and no letter
evidence of the truthtulness ot our
aim could be furnished than t
cite to the verdict rendered against
Hugh McCain last week, who wa
harged with the killing of Frank
Ficklin. It was generally regarded that McCain would receiye a very light sentenc, if not acquitted, but
prosecutor Cox put up such an able ind vigorous prosecution that the
jury returned a verdict of imprison
ment for six years. Petersburg

Buicihk Comner Ingham was called to Ferdinand on Tuoday to bold an loquaat. Mrs. Benedina Bromley, who bad been making her home at the convent there, disaph ared last Saturday, and was found drowned in a cistern, on a farm near Ferdinand which was formerly her home. Monday Messrs. Ben. Krampe, Christ. Beyke, John Beyke, Anthony Tmxler and John (iinder hunted for her, and on looking in the cistern saw her body tlere. Evidence showed she had been demented for several years. She was öS years old. The verdict was in accoidance w ith the alove facts. rur.!uel nlVfmity AtfHculturul lapwiaw! StMliuu. IK'i-ciiibf r6tl), 1SW. Keediof Hogs For Qaality of Meat. An inquiry has recently come to the Indiana Experiment station from one of our well known swine breeders, Mr. I. N. Barker, relative to the most desirable food for preparing pigs for the market. The market to day demands poik with a fair mixture of lean meat, such as can not be produced as a rule by a pure corn diet. The best results will be secured by using two or more kinds of grain, and also skim milk, if it can be obtained. The general lun of feeding experiments in this country have shown that where corn meal and shorts were fed, the meat showed more lean, than when corn was fed alone. At the Wisconsin experiment station, a mixture of 431 lbs. corn meal and shorts, half and half, fed wet, produced 100 lbs. of gain, as compared w ith 7S4 lbs. whole corn or 517 lbs.
corn meal, to make IW Ihs. gain.
The shorts are muscle forming
foods, and wheie these are used, a
men vigorous pig usually results.
G round barley or oats may also be
fed with corn to great advantage.
rhere are many farmers in Indiana
who grow oats extensively, besides
corn, who couiu ieeu mem 10 nock
hogs, with corn, to far greater profit ttian selling them at 13 cents per
bushel.
In a letter to this nation, Mr.
Barker says: ''My own exriments in feeding hogs to produce the
MM quality of meat, have been .-mi
liar to those you speak of and those
of I'rof. W. A. Henry, onlv I did
not feed as much meal or corn. I fed ground wheat and oats in equal parts, and not more than one-fourth
corn, l also leu skim iniiK ana ripe
pumpkins in connection with these, and secured a much larger percent.
of lean meat than when fed exclus
ively on corn, and also a much
stronger bone and a healthier hog and of course better pork."
The farmers of Indiana ought not
to allow a pound of skim milk to go
to waste, from the creameries or
farm dairies. It can be fed to great
profit to growing pigs, for it will as-
sisi in rapid nesn aeveiopment. Corn, shorts and skim milk make a combination that will produce a
high grade of pork. Or wheat may
replace the shorts. 1 bese foods as
sist in producing tlesh so rapidly as
to enable the feeder to dispose of his
pigs to advantage when voung, vet
of good weight. The market de
mand u now for light pigs. On
December 3rd., at the Stock Yards
at Indianapolis, light and medium
pigs, weighing from 158 to 2U1 lbs.
as extremes, brought much better
prices than heavier stock. At Chi-
:ago, late in November. "Asorted
licht" hiirs were uuoted at 3.40 to
C7 o
$3.4.V "Good to choice medium
weights" at $3.40 to $3.60, and
'Good to choice heavy at $8.26 to
$3.3.'.
It is hoped that there is enough f suggestion in this communication,
t induce many of our feeders to
UBe something other than pure corn as a food for their pigs.
