"Bull Nose" Pigs Devoured His Profit
One hog raiser in Northern Ne
braska realizes the fullest extent of
the truth of the above statement.
It was only after he had raised a
healthy crop of pigs that he realized
the great amount of money he has
been losing each year. One evening,
about a year ago. he was reading
about "ton litters" in his breed paper
and got to comparing his own litter?
with them. He figured up his 1922
pig crop and found that from ten
sows he raised fifty-five pigs averag
ing about one hundred sixty pounds
at six months of age. That meant he
was only raising eight hundred
pound litters. He knew he was feed
ing them properly as they were re
ceiving corn, buttermilk, oats and
sweet clover pasture. Ho finally re
solved it was a question of disease.
In fact, he even remembered a state
ment his veterinarian had made in
reference to his pigs being wormy
and having some intestinal trouble.
He concluded "to call the county agent
and talk It over with him. He did so
a few days later. The county agent
after being told what the veterinar
ian had said, advised his to raise the
next crop of pigs under more clean
conditions and prevent them from
picking up round worms eggs and
disease germs. After thinking over
this suggestion ; and reading over
bulletin 222, which the county agent
secured for him, ho put a tile floor
In -his hog house at the cost of forty
dollars. He brushed his bows and
washed the hog house with belling
lye water. When; the. pigs were two
weeks! old, they were moved to small
hog houses la a clean pasture, where
they were kept until they weighted
ah average of one hundred pounds.
He fed them exactly the same as on
previous years.- Did It pay him to go
to all the trouble? Figure it out
yourself, lie raised sixty pigs from
ten sows. They weighed two 'hun
dred pounds: average at six months
of age. Each : sow ; raised, him four!
hundred forty pounds more pork in!
six months than-she did last-year.'
At 57.00 a hundred thi3 tells its own'
story. ,-. .-. ? ;. ; ; ;
Plowing Under Sweet Clover for Corn
Sweet Clover seeded in small Brain
inJApril of -one year-is -at- its-best-to
nlow under In--late April' the follow
ing year. Analysis of the sweet clover
at,various times of the ''year by the
Qhio station Indicate that- a - very'
'little";iitrogen is accumulated -"by the"
Weet 5 clover '-plant after May 1st. of
its second year of growth.. Sweet
Clover plowed under Jn late April,
therefore, will furnish the maximum
cf benefit to the corn crop which la
to be rented in May. The Ohio fig
ures also indicate that an acre of
good sweet clover will add fully 1.15
pounds of nitrogen to the soil, or
more than enough to produce 100
bushels of corn, in all sections of the
corn belt where, the soil is rich
enough in lime so that the sweet
clover makes a vigorous growth, the
seeding of sweet clover with small
grain to be plowed in April of the
year following is probably the most
practical way of building up soil
fertility. An acre seeding of scari
fied white sweet clover this year costs
about $2.00. The fertility added by
a good growth of sweet lover is worth
at least ten times this much. Taken

NOMINATION OF
CHARLES WARRED
KILLED BY SENATE
Administration Forces Receive Shock
j In rejection of Appointee
j For Attorney General. '
i Washington, Jferch 10. In a dra
" matic ecGsion, the senate today to
' jectcd President Coolidge's nomina
tion of Charles Beecher Warrsn of
Michigan to bo attorney general in
his cabinet, the. vote being 41 to 39.
The vote was a shock to the White
House as well as to the republican
leaders, all of whom had counted up
on confirmation of the appointment
by a safe margin.
Vice President Dawes was blamed.
for Warren's defeat, for on this cru
! cial occasion, when the vice presi
dent might hrve cast the vote which
would have saved the day for the ad
ministration and put Warren into
the cabinet, Dawes was missing from
the senate. v
Dawes Hot Locnted
Despite frantic efforts by adminis
tration senators to find Dawes and
drag him to the senate in time to
caet tbe deciding vote in favor of
Warren, he could not be found and
Warren's defeat was made final,
when, after failing. to muster a ma
jority on the motion to confirm the
nomination, the senate by a majority
vote laid on the table a motion made
by one of Warren's supporters to
"reconsider" the vote by which con
firmation was denied.
After his sensational scolding of
the senate for its "archaic" rules in
hi3 inaugural address, senate leaders
were bitterly amazed by Dawes ab
sence at a time when his vote was so
greatly needed.
"Announce the Vote"
When the roll on the question of
confirmation was first called hasty
checks made by Warren's supporters
revealed that the vote was a tie, 40
being cast for Warren and 40 against
him. Dawes could have made it 41
to 40 for confirmation had he been
present.
Warren's opponents, realizing the
vote was not sufficient to confirm
Warren, made insistent demands to
hnve the vote announced. Senator
Moses, presiding, purposely held back
the announcement while pages scur
ried . about the capitol looking for
Dawes.
"Announce the vote," shouted
Ashurst of Arizona, In his loudest
voice.
Overman Switches
"It will be announced in due
time." Moses calmly replied.
When it as found that Dawea
was not in the huilding. Rood of
Pennsylvania changed Lis vote from
"aye" to "nay," for the' purpose cf
making a motion to. reconsider the
previous vote, and thereby gain time
,for Dawes to reach the chamber.
Then the vote was announced, 39
to 41. Reed made his motion, which
v.-as immediately followed by a mo
ticn by Walsh of Montana to lay
Reed's motion on the table. On the
roll call on Walsh's motion the vote
was 41 to 29, Overman of North
Carolina, who had suported Warren,
changing to the opposition and vot
ing for Walsh's motion. This ended
Warren's chance for confirmation.
