Feed Wet or Cooked.

One of the largest feeders of swine
gives his experience aud judgement
as follows: 81 find that ii | take ten
bushels of meal and wet it in cold
water and feed twenty-five hogs with
it, they eat it well; but if l take the
same quantity and cook it, it doubles
the bulk, aud will take the same
number of hogs twice "a long to eat
it and | think they fatten twice as
fast in the same length of time
Prof, Stewart in commenting on this
says he took two lots of three pigs
each from the same litter, weighing
225 pounds each lot. Lot one had
cOrn-meal soaked twelve hours in
cold water. Lot two had corn meal
cooked; each had all they would eat,
and each had a cock of early cut
clover every day. Lot one consumed
2,lll pounds Of meal and gained 420
pounds or l40 pounds each. Lot two
gained 800 pounds or 200 pounds each.
Or figuring it another way, he got
IL pounds of pork for a bushel of
meal soaked in cold water, and 16.47
pounds for q bushel when cooked, q
gain Of nearly 81 pounds to the
bushel, getting half as much again
for his corn by cooking It. Prof.
Stewart further says that "by good
management the general feeder may
reach with raw corn pounds, with
raw meal 10 pounds, with boiled corn
II pounds, and with boiled meal Il
pounds Of live pork per bushel.

Early or Late Pigs.

Farmers are very much inclined to
rush In and out OF any kind of stock
as prices go up or down, and as one
extreme follows another, many buy
and sell at the wrong time. Just at
present every one wants hogs, and
those who are fortunate enough to
have them can ask their own price.
1t Is safe to predict that there will
be great many more pigs saved, in
proportion to the breeding sows, than
here were lat year.
A perpleXng question for many
hog raisers is whether to breed for
early or late pigs. Both methods
have advantages. When two filters
year are raised, early pigs are
weaned in time for the second litter
to come in September, which gives
them good start for winter. But
with early pigs the chances of loss
are very much greater, and the Pig
are more liable 70 contract disease

ing for early pigs by early, 1 mean
February aud March,, and hdving a
good many losses, have concluded
that April is the best month. The
sOws at that time can get little
grass, are in much better condition
the weather is warm and the pigs
have nothing to DO but grow. This
will make the second litter a little
late, but with proper management
they will be all right.

Their fare has been a mixture o

The cost has been very little, anC

lieve, though, that those same pigs j

would trade the corn for mill feed
and expect to make money by dOini

A Now Process That Gives Promise of

also cause u revolution in industrial
pursuits.
The motion wood can be pressed into
