NOTABLE EXPERIMENT IN HOG RAISING Milo Maize Found to be the Most Valuable Feed in California Editor Gazette:—If the college farm at Davis, could when it makes an important discovery, get out a bulletin with red head lines in large block type, there is no question but what it would attract more attention than under the present modest system. Recently a hog feeding experiment was concluded at Davis. The finish of this experiment took place on October 18th during the short course and there were about 200 persons present to hear the result. If every farmer in California could have been present to have seen the pigs and hear Prof. Thompson tell how they were fed, it would mean more money for California agriculture than anything which has taken place for a property.

Following is a list of questions submitted concerning a number of citizens, who have presumably applied for insurance: About how long have you known him? Or, about how long have your informants known him? Have you or your informants seen him or heard directly of him recently? Is above age approximately correct? If not, try to learn exact age. Has he any other occupation than given above? If so, what? Has he any dangerous or unhealthy duties, such as handling intoxicants, explosives, electricity, automobiles, working around moving machinery, or doing anything else dangerous? If so, what? Please make rough estimate of his total worth. Make rough estimate of total gross yearly income. Is he considered good pay? What is his appearance as to health—robust, average or unhealthy? (If unhealthy, what seems the matter with him)? Do you learn of any present or past illness, bodily affliction or injury that might affect the risk? If so, what? Do you learn of consumption, insanity, or any hereditary disease in family? If so state disease and kindred, mother, brother, or aunt, etc. Have you heard of him living exposed to a consumptive the past three years, or in a house previously occupied by one? If so, give particulars. Please give us the best idea you can of about how often he takes a drink, and whether mostly whiskey or beer? Does he ever get staggering drunk, or hilarious?—which? About how often does he get this way? Say once a week, month or year, etc? About how Recently a hog feeding experiment was concluded at Davis. The finish of this experiment took place on October 18th during the short course and there were about 200 persons present to hear the result. If every farmer in California could have been present to have seen the pigs and hear Prof. Thompson tell how they were fed, it would mean more money for California agriculture than anything which has taken place for a long time. The logical result of this hog feeding experiment is, that there is no excuse for sending so many million dollars out of the state for pork products. It was shown that it is not necessary to use barley to fatten hogs—milo malze gets better results. Milo malze will yield from eighty to one hundred bushels to the acre, while barley will not do half that much. There were eight lots of hogs in the experiment—practically all the breeds were represented. Without going into a table showing the comparative feeding results, it can be stated that dry barley is not a success. Hogs that had the cafeteria or self feeder advantages showed better results and more profitable gains than those which were fed at stated intervals. Hogs fed on rolled barley and digester tankage and which had access to an alfalfa pasture, did well and made money; but the hogs that were fed on ground milo malze and tankage in self feeders and which had access to alfalfa pasture, were so far ahead of all the others, that there was no comparison. This lot gained more pounds—showed a bigger percent of dressed weights when they were killed, and made a profit of $7.03 per head as against $4.37 for the next best lot. The return on the investment of this lot of hogs was about 30%, which is better than can be expected from most farm outputs. It is estimated that these hogs cost five cents a pound when they were put on feed. A farmer who is equipped for the business should be able, under the most trying conditions, to put his hogs in the feed lot at not to exceed four cents a pound. The result of this experiment ought to be in the hands of every farmer in California, and the outcome of it should be that millions of bushels of milo malze will be grown on California farms and converted into pork an- If so state disease and family? If so living exposed to a consumptive past three years, or in a house previously occupied by one? If so, give particulars. Please give us the best idea you can of about how often he takes a drink, and whether mostly whiskey or beer? Does he ever get staggering drunk, or hilarious?—which? About how often does he get this way? Say once a week, month or year, etc? About how long do these sprees usually last, a few hours, an evening or a day, etc? Has he drank to excess in past? If so, try to give some idea of how excessively. About how long since he reformed? Did he take Keely or any other cure?—Or what probably reformed him? Have you ever heard of him using morphine, or any other drug habit? Do you hear of anything against his general moral character? If so what? Do you hear of any financial embarrassment, domestic troubles, fights or feuds, connection with saloon business, or anything else you think might increase danger to health and life? If so, what? Is he deaf, or blind, or crippled anyway, or of unsound mind, or otherwise physically or mentally impaired. If so, give particulars. In your opinion is the risk for life insurance first-class, good, average or poor? If not desirable, please explain why. The editor is unable to obtain this information and the proposition is declined. THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION President Wilson on Friday issued his annual Thanksgiving proclamation, appointing Thursday, November 30, as a day of national thanksgiving, and It is estimated that these hogs cost five cents a pound when they were put on feed. A farmer who is equipped for the business should be able, under the most trying conditions, to put his hogs in the feed lot at not to exceed four cents a pound. The result of this experiment ought to be in the hands of every farmer in California, and the outcome of it should be that millions of bushels of milo maize will be grown on California farms and converted into pork annually.

ASK REGISTRATION UNDER TORRENS LAW Eighty-two Property Owners File Petitions Friday Eighty-two citizens of Orange county petitioned Friday to have their lands registered under the Torreens land act, many of them being from Anaheim. Two petitions were filed with the recorder. The law went into effect on December 14, 1914. Miss Justine Whitney, county recorder, prepared a book for receiving registration, but so far has received but eleven certificates for registration. Recently a solicitor for a firm of Los Angeles attorneys, Crall & Crail, went into the Katella and West Orange sections, as well as West Anaheim, East Anaheim and Olive sections. The result of his work was evidenced in the filing of two actions at the county clerk's office, by which eighty-two titleholders ask that their lands be registered under the land act. The petitions will be heard in the superior court, and the certificates that will be issued will be recorded. "So far," said Miss Whitney, "there have been no transfers of registered ANAHEIM GAZETTE—THURSDAY, Nov. 23 property. When the number of pieces of property registered grows to a considerable figure and transfers become frequent, the work of the land registration department will be no small item."

The appeal is referred to the charitable people of this community, who are asked to forward contributions to the Los Angeles headquarters. November 16, 1916. Editor Gazette:—This executive committee begs that you will consider this a personal communication, despite its general form, made necessary because of the terrific task now confronting us. We are writing to ask that you aid in organizing a similar committee for your section, for immediate action, in securing a fund there for the starving widows and orphans of Germanic countries. America has done much relief work for the Allied destitute. We should do as much for Germanic women and children who, our own Ambassador Gerard reports, are facing death in great numbers, because of food shortage. There can be no question of creed or race when Americans respond to the cry of hunger. Southern California has been aroused by the call and expects to raise $50,000 as its share. Ambassador Gerard personally will supervise the distribution of the American fund. We need the support of your section. Will you see to it that a committee is ed that neighbors talk the matter over and settle upon some variety of tree to be planted along their particular road. The forestry department has been very liberal in meeting the suggestions of the ranchers who have specific preferences. Any person who desires trees should write to the board of forestry, Santa Ana. Appointments to inspect the trees in the nursery can be made by letter or by telephone. The nursery telephone is Santa Ana, 892 Pacific, and the phone of the nursery superintendent, Robert C. Northcross, is Orange 102 W. Trees available for distribution for planting on county roads are: Acacias-Dealbata, Latifolia, Pycnantha, Saligna, Cedrus Deodara (Indian Cedar), Casuarina Stricta (Beefwood), Cupressus (Cypress) Macrocarpa (common Monterey), Eucalyptus, Cerbra, Rlyanthema, Rudis, Salligna, Pittosporum Undulatum, Pinus-Halepensis (Jerusalem) Canariensis (Canary Island) Penaster (Seaside), Quercus Agrifolia (Live Oak); Sequoia Sempervirens (Redwood) CANAL TOLL TRICKS Gen. Goethals calls attention to the fact that the United States is losing about a third of the revenue that it would normally derive from British ships passing through the Panama canal. These ships succeed in evading the full payment contemplated in the canal tolls act, by means of peculiarities in their construction. The tolls are based on tonnage, not carrying capacity. In the ordinary merchantmen the two bear a pretty definite ratio, but the British ships are made with special decks and so are able to carry more freight with the same tonnage, thereby paying less for a given cargo than the American ships pay. It looks on the face of it like a form of legalized cheating. The prac Res. 125 E. Broadway, Cor. Claudina Phones: Pac. 341-M; Home 753-2 Bells J. W. TRUXAW. M. D.
