About the Hogs

oh, the hog, the beautiful hog,
curving his back as he watches the
dog: defying the lay for his bread and
meat; roaming at large through every
street, hunting, grunting, nosing
around, till the open front gate is sure
to be found-with its hinges broken
and ruined quite, by the lovers that
hung there Sunday night; it won't
stay shut, it won't hang level; so in
walks the hog, raises the devil.
"A Nebraska man says: hay is
good forhogs. Cut the hay short and
mix the bran, shorts or middlings,
and feed as other feed Hogs soon
learn to like it, and if soaked in swill
or Stop food it is highly relished by
them. In winter use for hogs the
same hay thatyou feed to your horses,
and you VIII find that it will save
bran, shorts or other food; it puts on
flesh as rapidly as anything that can
be given them.
-Sows intended for breeding should
be separated from those intended for
the butcher, an fed a generous but
not fattening diet. Select those with
long bodies, straight backs, and hav-
ing the largest number Of teats; as
these make the best breeders. When
a good breeder is thus secured, she
should have at least two or three lit
ters, and as many more as she will
breed without becoming unruly or
getting any bad habits.
DIR. j. b. Morris says, in regard to
trichin8 in swine, that it is a well es-
tablished fact that the real source of
infection in swine lies entirely in the
rat. A committee of Vienna physicians
found in Moravia 81 per cent. Of rats
examined, trichinous; in Vienna and
It's envirOus, 10 per cent. The well
known voracity of the hog, and its
special fondness for meal, cause it to
feed upon the flesh and excrements Of
their animals infested with these
parasites, and especially rats andmice
To prevent trichInOus swine it is high
~ important to cut off all the sources
Of disease in the diet of these animals
1t is a well established fact that
bushel of corn will make ten pounds
Of pork, while it viii make but little
over One-half that amount of beef. 1t
is also an indisputable fact that one
acre of clover will make two pounds
OF pork to one of beef when grazed
without other feed. The great value
of grass in producing pork is not as
well understood by farmers as it
should be. Grass is as much natures
food for hogs as for cattle, and the
former viii utilize it into greater
profits than the latter can possibly
do. We urge it upon swine breeders
to give his hogs an abundance of
grass It will develop bone and mus
Gle with proper flesh to sustain heavy
weight Of future fat. A hog that has
been grown principally on grass has
a sure foundation for future great
ness.
