Tlie anecstors of the: swine found on American farms camefrom twosource.4, soul heastern Asia and western Europe. These Wo families o hogs are often designated by the names sus indica and rxi serofa: Although the word su (swine) is Latin, people who feed pigs use it when they call "sui, sui," to the pigs at feeding time So that in a ,very ancient call. ' Siis indica, a native of China, was a small, fine boned animal much prized by the people of southeastern Asia. Descendants of sus scrofa, the wild boar of western Europe, are still hunted in forests and private game .preserves. They were troublesome nearUlie battle fronts in the recent great war. The wild boar is a large, ferocious animal with thin hams. and a very heavy shield. From its Chinese ancestor the modem hog derived its form arid quality; from the wild boar it has obtained its size and vigor.' V Swine were probably introduced into this country by early Spanish explorers.. For many years wild hogs were found in the everglades of Florida. It is recorded that Jamestown had to be fenced .to keep out the i wild hogs, descendants of those brought over -by earlier 'settlers.;-';,: r v v: : - r: ': ' ''"v Although the ancestors of the hog came from China and western 1 Europe, it remained for English breeders to blend the two and devel op the earlier breeds. The earlier breeds like the Berkshire were developed where corn is not the principal crop. Under such condi tions the bacon type of hog was produced. t The bacon type has a longer side, less fat and a smaller ham- The lard type hog is a native of the corn belt. This type of hog has a compact, thick,! deep, smooth body. The ham, back, loin and shouldeVs are the most valuable parts and are developed to a .higher degree. . The production of lard and fat is the principal aim of this Th following are among the favorites of the bacon breeds: ' ." The Lar&e Yorkshire, originating in England.

The writer believes the reader will agree that thw is proven, if he will carefully scan the articles on the blogan pages. ' lie will find that the prices of hogs from the farms here are higher than the average offered in the Chicago market ; higher in Portland and hicrher at the local packing plant m Sal era. f That is a very1) important point; and this condition will without doubt persist, owing to the great lumber, and mining camps in this region, and the developing markets on all sides of us, and across the Pacific, where live two-thirds of all the people in the world. j ' There should be more dairying in this section; more.and still more; and on every dairy farm swine breeding should of course be carried on. . ' : - : . - - And no farmer of any kind should te without at least a few hogs. Not only for the market, but for breetling purposes, in the higher walks of the hog world, there is rooniVhere in the Salem district for great growth and fine development. This district ought to produce some, of the best and highest priced hogs in the world, and it will, if more of the kind of men of whom we have a considerable number now will get into the game. It is a great game, calling for the best that is in men-of intelligence and action, and there is a wide open 'invitation for such, men here from every where. The City Beautiful, Flowers and Bulbs, will be the Salem Slogan subject for The Statesman of next Thursday. There will be some fine illustrations, and the whole matter will.be worth while, and interesting. ,y i " ' ' 1 1 1 ' passengers on trip. saving more than an Jiour In Utae. lit is reported that on the first ttip the passengers spent all the time playing whist.

With more than 4000 beds under one roof, this will be the biggest slumber hive In the wiorld. Not sat isfied with that, the same landlord is building another hostelry across the way with 3000 rooms. Any stranger who asks him tor a, bed ought to be able to get one. but the chances' are he will have to put up a ten-spot, at that. It used to be that when people went to New York they never thought about going to bed, but now there isn't much of anything else to do.
