McNaughton. Los Angeles, January 11 The Wotitern states are gradually Increasing In-creasing their hog population, with California taking the lead with an estimated Increase of 200,000 pigs J raised this year over 1931. Depart- The new laws, effective the first .ment of Agriculture surveys Indi cate an Increase of at least S3 per cent in the number of sows bred to farrow in the spring of 1932 aa compared com-pared with the spring of 1931. A similar increase was reported in actual farrowing in the fall of 1931 over the fall of 1930. la the Western states as a whole, an Increase of about 10 per cent is indicated in the spring pig crop, following an increase of about 33 per cent last fall, This is encouraging news. In California, conditions are particularly particul-arly climatic candltions and abundance abund-ance of available feed, and the farmers of the other Western states will also more and more each year appreciate that the hog is a profitable profit-able way of marketing many of their crops and salvaging things otherwise wasted. Coupled with these factors la a broad market for hogs at prices much higher than prevail throughout '.the' Corn Belt The price differential over Eastern markets favoring Western growers Is bound to continue for many years, as even with the prospective increase in-crease in hog production during this year, California hog growers cannot can-not supply more than one-third of the demand. It Is estimated that California imports 800,000 to 1,000,- 000 hogs annually, and in addition, of the year, have been summarized and are the convenience of motor-, lata who may not have received a copy of the laws.

They have seen the futility of attempting at-tempting in a mild mannered way to get any relief from the tax burden. bur-den. They recognize, furthermore, that the farmers, acting alone, can make no progress unless, they can invite the Interest and sympathy of other taxpaying groups. In order to work out such a plan of co-operation, some of the leading farmers in this state met In Salt Lake City on January 4th and formulated for-mulated what will be known as the AGRICULTURAL, ECONOMY LEAGUE OF UTAH, with the following fol-lowing officers: J. R. Peterson, Salt Lake County, President; 8. M. Nielsen, Mt. Pleasant, vice-president: Parley Glover, Salt Lake Co., secretary; and the following dlrec tors: N. C. Chrlstensen, Utah Co.; Frank Pruary, Tooele Co.; M. P. Brown, Weber Co. and Orson B. Chrlstensen, Box Elder Co. As time nrnreMls. according to President Peterson, representation on the General Committee will be enlarged enlarg-ed to include leading farmers from every county. "The purpose of tne organization," said Mr, Peterson, "is to bring about Immediate action for relief. This is not in conflict with any other agencies but rather in co-operation with them. We have requested and have been given a place on the General Committee of the Utah Tax payers Association and have appointed ap-pointed Mr. A, F. Rundquist of West Jordan to' fill that important post" "The meeting at which this action was taken passed important resolutions resolu-tions demanding substantial reorganization reor-ganization of all departments of state and local government, cur tailment of unnecessary activities and readjustments of wage sched ules. It Is idle for anyone to think that the public payroll can continue on the same high level while the farmers and other taxpayers have been reduced to poverty. We cannot can-not play politics with economics," said Mr, Peterson. "We must choose between them, and the farmers of this state, through this organization, have decided to follow the line of sound economics and to demand necessary reforms in government. We must have better government at less cost." "The League is arranging to have a strong delegation can upon uuv- emor Dern and ask him to Issue a proclamation calling for less expense, ex-pense, reduced payrolls In our state, cities, counties and school govern ments. We are calling upon all the heads of our educational institu tions to begin at once to reduce their cost We are asking the State Tax Commission to place a reduction of 25 percent upon grazing graz-ing and agricultural lands. We are asking that general property be no longer taxed for state highways but that the tax for that purpose shall be raised from gasoline, motor vehicle ve-hicle licenses and from a substantial tax upon the commercial conveyances convey-ances that use our highways." o - NOTES ON CIGARETTE SMOKING COLLECTED BY UTAH EDUCATIONAL ASSN.

' The government survey shows that there are more fanners raising hogs in the west than during any recent year. There is some attrac tion in the'fact that there is a cash outlet every day in the year for hogs. To many fanners, the mir age of quick profits in speculative crops has drifted away and they are looking for the safer low-cost lines of production such as hog raising. .-; ' n o Court It pays to he polite, even If the reward is nothing more than your own personal pleasure.

'Milk recording is not s new-fangled Idea in Wales. It was carried on In the principality before the Tenth century. The farmers of Wales used to migrate to the hills In summer time. They used to put the milk of their cows In a common churn, and they had to keep a record rec-ord of It in order to divide the produce pro-duce of butter and cheese satisfactorily. satisfac-torily. The cows were turned Into untouched pasture and their milk yields measured- not weighed as Is the practice today and the produce of butter and cheese was handed over according to what each cow had yielded on any particular day. "The record was In accordance with what was known as the vene-xlotinn vene-xlotinn measure, a vessel which was three thumbs across the bottom, six thumbs across the middle, nine thumbs across the top, and nine thumbs diagonally. A thumb was about an Inch, so that the venedo-tlan venedo-tlan measure held about a gallon of milk and a normal cow was expected expect-ed to give about two gallons day. Tbree-times-a-day milking was also well known in Wales In the Twelfth century, and the month of May was known as 'The month of three milk-lngs milk-lngs a day.'

The Scriptural Scrip-tural accounts of this Incident do not give the name of the daughter of Herodias, referring to her simply as the damsel. -From the Jewish historian Josephus we learn that Herodias had a daughter named Salome Sa-lome by her first husband, who was Herod's brother Philip. This Salome Sa-lome first married her first cousin and step-brother, Herod Philip, tetrarch of Iturea, and afterward became the wife of Arlstobulus, king of Chalchis.

This is a mistaken notion. Failure to make and feed well balanced rations to good cows, coupled with failure to eliminate inherently low producing cows, costs dairy farmers farm-ers too many thousands of dollars to be ignored in any program for improving dairy farm income. Calculating good rations is not as complex a problem as many believe it to be. This article is presented on the theory that many dairy farmers may be persuaded to follow fol-low simple rftles in feeding practice prac-tice who might otherwise balk at any tendency to complex calculations calcu-lations in making good rations. It will do little good to confuse feeders feed-ers of dairy cattle with too many figures if In the end they turn back to their old practice of feeding feed-ing "by guess" and "by gosh." It matters not how simple or how complex one's "method of making rations may be, if the result is satisfactory4 By "satisfactory" we mean converting feeds into milk efficiently. Fortunately for those who dislike to figure, and within certain limitations, good rations may be made by following simple rules. This article is for the dairyman dairy-man who dislikes to figure but who is, nevertheless, interested In the figures representing profit or loss at the end of the year. The first rule is to feed roughage to the limit of appetite. The second rule Is to make a grain mixture with the right protein content for the roughage with which it is to be fed. The third rule is to feed grain according to the production of each cow. There is nothing complex about this simple way of making and feeding good rations. The only calculation involved Is that of making mak-ing a grain miture of the right protein content We feed roughage to the limit of appetite because, as a rule, nurtl-ents nurtl-ents are supplied at less cost from roughage than from concentrates. When cows are fed both silage and have apporximately to the limit of appetite, they will average to eat about three pounds of silage and one pound of hay daily per 100 lbs. live weight. This Is to say a cow weighing 1,200 lbs, will average to eat about 36 lbs. silage and 12 lbs. hay daily. When dry roughage is fed, without suchulent feed, cows will ayerage to eat about two pounds daily per 100 lbs. live weight. The actual amount of roughage consumed will vary according ac-cording to the kind and quality of roughage offered- and also some what according to the likes and dislikes of individual cows. The rates - are based on the assumption that the roughage is supplemented with grain fed according to the production of each cow. Roughage of the right kind and quality Is important im-portant in the economy of milk production. The second rule in this simple method of making balanced rations for cows Is that the protein content of the grain mixture shall be based on the kind of roughage with which the mixture Is to be fed-As fed-As this is being written, one of our subscribers in Tennessee comes in with an inquiry, "Please send me as soon as possible the best ration for milks cows from the following; corn, wheat, wheat bran,' and cot tonseed mea.1." He says "nothing about the roughage with which this mixture Is to be fed. It may be corn fodder and sudan grass hay; It may be corn silage and wheat straw; it may be mixed hay or alfalfa hay or soy bean straw. The term "ration" implies all. of the feed, both roughage and grain, a cow Is fed during a 24-hour period. It makes a lot of differ- enre in the ingredients and their proportions in the grain mixture as to whether the roughage is to be corn stover and timothy hay or whether it is to be alfalfa hay of good quality.
