FRIDAY, APRIL
By C. M. McAlister,
I have already told you about
the general hog situation ot the
country as regards the number of
bogs available. To summarize, the
'conditions at the first of the year
were a distinct shortage ot hogs
In the western part of the coun
try and the eastern part of the
county, with a normal supply in
the middle west. This condition
made it appear that our Pacific
northwest farmers could safely go
Into the raising of hogs at this
- time without fear of over produc
tion for quite some time.
, X new situation has arisen
which makes the hog shortage of
the country appear even more pro
nounced. The middle west has
been looked to to produce an enor
mous supply of hogs for market,
and it was hoped they would even
exceed their usual large - quota.
JBut something has happened. The
Poland China Journal, looked up
on as an authority on matters per
taining to swine, has a special ar
ticle in their publication of April
10, under the heading "He We
Fed Too Much Corn." ... It appears
that with their large amount of
cheap corn in the middle west
farmers have used it too freely
with tbelr breeding sows, with a
result that the pig loss in farrow
ing is tremendous. . They say IjI
their article: "The death rats
among little pigs this spring is to
extensive that it has already be
come a menace to the country, as
a shortage in the pig supply is a
strong probability. Two weeks
ago the Poland China Journal
stated that the losses had. been
heavier than UBual, uiiU varac.
Its readers to do everything in
their power to save the crop. Sine
then we have received hundreds of
reports of the spring pig crop and
what was thought at first to be a
possible exaggeration of the situ
ation has turned out be a reality.
The pig crop is reported short in
all but a few localities."
Reports indicate that even in
our Pacific northwest this same
condition existsto some extent on
acocunt of the late spring and un
faovrable weather. I feel that this
situation means a great deal to
the farmers of the Pacific north
west. It becomes more and more
apparent that hog production con
ditions throughout the country are
such as to guarantee beyond a rea
sonable doubt a profit from the

With this condition in the mid
die west as a warning, I think our
Pacific northwest farmers who
have sows that will farrow this
spring, should take particular
pains to see that their sows are
given proper feed and care at far
rowing time to protect both the
sow and the Utter.
With forest fires prevented, na
ture will grow new forest crops on
our deforested land.

. This la forest protection week.
The area of forest land swept
by fire each year is, broadly speak
ing, twice the size of the area' cut
over annually by logging opera

the past five years show an aver
age yearly total of 32,500 forest
fires, burning over 7,660,000 acres
and causing an annual damage of
$17,240,000. For the period of
1914,1920, Jncluelve, the total
number ot flres reported was 160.
300, covering 66,488,000 - acres
and doing a damage of $85,715,
760. Over 80 per cent of these
fires were, due to human agencies,
and could, have been; prevented
through tbj exercise of care on
the part of "wtttzens. .
For the Pacific northwest some
TO per cent of the fires are due to
man-made Causes, careless camp
ers alone being ' responsible for
about one-third of all fires.
For the country as a whole, ful
ly one-seventh or all forest fires,
according to the forest service, are
due to railroads. Nearly as many
start from careless " burning of
brush by farmers, and Incendiar
