Girls to Grow Pigs on the Home Place

with the Bureau of Animal Industry.
U. S. Department of Agriculture, tho
fitntc Superintendent of Public In
itrue, tho county school superinten
dents, teachers and parents.
The Corn Club members are raising
profitableyields of corn where it was
thought impossible to grow it a few
J oars ago, nnd it is hoped the impor
tance of feeding crops to live stock
on the farm may be emphasized ia this
l'ig Club work.
It would be well if all members of
Corn Clubs would enroll i.x the Pork,
Production work and thus loud a hand
in the endeavor to improve the quali
ty of swine in Oregon, and at the same
time learn how to make more rapid
r.nd economical gains in hog feeding.
There will be two distinct divisions
of tho Pig Club project. Division 1,
tho euro and management of a brood
low and littor of pigs. Division 2,
tho feeding and care of one or more
piils from weaning time for period of
( t least four months.
The object nmong forming Pig
Clubs among tho boys and girls may
l.o briefly stated as follows:
1. To stimulate an interest in
twine production and to teach the boys
a. id girls how to raiso better and
cheaper hogs by the uso of improved
blood nnd tho growing of forago
crops.
2. To increnso the number of hogs
i Used on the fnrm in order that the
meat for tho homo nnd that required
to feed the extra farm labor may bo
produced instead of being bought.
II. To complement the work of the
loy's and girls' Corn Clubs by showing
thorn how they can profitably sell
their corn through hogs.
1. To encourage tho homo curing
of meats on tho farm.
C. To tcucii tho boys how to judgo
bogs and to Rclcct them for breeding
or market purposes.
(I. To encourage the growing of
forago crops and discourage tho use
of high-priced-foedn.
7. To instruct the boys and girls
in a practical way in tho nuinngcmuiit
feeding, sanitation, nnd prevention of
diseases of swine, all of which Infor
mation proves valucuhlo with respect
to other forms of livestock work.
8. To give the boys and girls a
means of earning some money for
themselves while at home.
9. To instill in tUe lxys and girls
vhil young a love of animals which
will resut in their taking more inter
est in fnrm life, and to furnish them
at the same lime some work which will
in a practical way, give an insight in
to the business side of farm life and
incite in them n desire to struggle for
: ml attain success.

Early Coal Milling in Orcgo
Coal was first noted in the Coos
Bay rogion. Oregon about 60 years
ago, Prof. J. S. Newberry having re
ported in 1855 that the coal deposits
of Coos Bay had began to attract at
cntion. Tho first cargo was shipped from
tho Empire Basin, but the discovery
of coal near tho head of Coos Bay
soon transferal the point of produc
tion to Newport, which remained the
principal mine until within the last
decade, sinae the Beaver Hill mine
has been more successfully managed
and become thee hief producer. The
' first record of coal production is con
tained in the census report, when 43,
205 short tons were mined.

Convention", is non-scctarinn in cha
racter and will be ntteded by the male
mumbcrs of every church in tho State
of Oregon, south-western Washington
and up the Columbia river as far as
Pasco.
The meeting is to bo addressed by
some of the best known religious
religious speakers of the world. Such
men as A. R. Kepler of China, J. R.
Trimjble, one of the big Methodists of
America, James V. Bashford, famous

J. O. Randall who added 107,000 mem
bers to Methodist Church last year,
James P. McKaughton of Turkey, J.
E. Crowther of Africa, and S. Hall
Young of Alaska, will be heard.
These men are among the brilliant
orators of the evangelical churches of
the world and will repay a trip to
Portland to hear them.
Meetings will be held mornings,
afternoons and evening. No collec
tios will be taken up, and no subscrip
tions asked. Special railroad rates
on all roads.
The Laymen's Missionary Conven
tion of Oregon, to meet in Portland,
February 13-16 and which is part of
a nation-wide movement to arouse the
energies of Laymen of nil evangelical
churches in upwards of 80 of the lead
ing centers of the country, will prove
of importance to all the world.
Ac the result of Conventions held
in other cities, there is much informa
tion. At St. Louis, actual gifts to the
work totalled upwards of $6000. Christ
Episcopal Church enrolled the largest
number of delegates 113 nt Cinci
nnati, nnd the Walnut Hills Baptist
Church enrolled its entire male mem
bership 77.
A member of the Convention Com
mittco at Toledo requested that he be
put in touch with its naior.nl demoni
uational leaders, so that he and his
wife mig'ut guarantee the support of
at least five missionaries.
Tho ambition of Los Angeles is to
oijcuro 5000 delegates. From Minne
apolis comes tho information that the
Lutherans arc making preparations
for the convention there to a greater
extend than in any other city.

of itself is a guaranty that the occas
ion will be a success. The Conven
tion meets Fobruary 13, continuing
until February 16, inclusive.
The only expense to dolcgatcs is
the initial registration fee of $1.00
the expenses having been provided for
by Portland capitalists. Able speak
ers, reduced Mi road fares, the fact
that the convention is open to all male
members of all Oregon evangelical
churches and the opportunity present
ed of widely extending the work for
tho uplift of humanity is creating
great interest.
This convention will emphasize and
define the duty of all Laymen, impres
sing them with the fact that they
have a vital interest in church work,
and that they arc not mere passive
factors. With quickened thought,
broadened vision and srenghtcned pur
