Hog Production Will Be Profitable.
Prospects for profitable pork pro
duction were never brighter than at
pesent, with the demand large, the
supply limited, and the Food Admin
istration behind the movement. A
campaign has been started in Ne
braska with the purpose of effecting
an increase of 20 per cent in the
number of hogs for next year. The
Food Administration realizes that no
farmer feels justified, or is justified in
enlarging one side of his business
without some assurance that such a
change will be profitable. Govern
ment guarantees give the hog raiser
the best prospects for hog profits that
he has yet known. Fats for food and
fats for explosives are of decided im
portance to a fighting nation and
there is no doubt but that Nebraska
hog men, once acquainted with the
situation, will seize the opportunity to
be of service to their country and to
their pocketbook at the same time by
breeding one more sow for every five
that farrowed last spring. The Agri
cultural Extension Service of the State
University as well as the field workers
engaged in the campaign will give all
assistance possible to farmers in car
rying out the project.
Nat Goodwin says he’s not going to
be divorced again. He’s sworn off.
Well, Nat, that’s a good idea. Another
marriage wouldn’t have much pub
licity value in war time.

~ Winter Care of Tires.
If an automobile is used occasion
ally during the winter, it will not be
necessary to remove the tires, but
they should be partially deflated, ac
cording to the department of agricult
ural engineering of the University of
Nebraska. The wheels should be sup
ported by jacks.
Tires should not be left standing on
greasy or wet floors. Grease is in
jurious to the rubber and moisture to
the fabric.
If the car is stored for the winter, it
should be jacked up and the tires re
moved. If there are any cuts in the
rubber they 4liould be repaired in
order that moisture may not enter the
fabric.
During the winter, after the cas
ings have been wrapped in paper or
burlap to keep them as dry as possible
and to protect them from the sunlight,
they should be placed in a dry room
with a temperature ranging between
40 and 65 degrees. Inner tubes should
be removed and either be deflated or
rolled loosely with a slight air pres
sure left in them. The tubes should
then be given the same care as the
casings.
