Broadwater county is a thing of the

Early Maturity OF Hogs

Ol
There is not so much call now for
hogs that will keep on growing three
or four years before they reach maturi-
ty. The large hog has always coarser
meat than the young pig, and the diff
ference, we suspect, is because there is
always some check to growth in cold
weather. Spring pigs, fattened in fall,
will always make better pork than
they will if kept later. In these times,
too, the hog that weighs 200 to $50
pounds sells for higher price per
hundred weight than one that is heav-
ier. Hence, the early-maturing breeds,
that reach their full weight when one
OF two years old, are now the favor
ties with farmers. But there is some
thing to be said in favor Of the heavy
weights. If not allowed to get too fat,
the late-maturing hogs are better
breeders. especially for dams. A cross
of an early-maturing boar with large,
long-bodied SOW brings pigs that, for
fattening, are better than either bred
alone. They will be larger at BIRTH,
and at ten to eleven months will weigh
thirty to fifty pounds more than the
full-bloods of either early or late-ma
turing varieties. One reason why late
maturing sows are better breeders is
because they keep on growing until
three or four years old, and therefore.
their food does not go to fat as much
as that Of the early-matur breeds,
which never attain large size.-Ameri+

Keep n Record of Your Work

Every farmer is to great extent a
manufacturer and ought to keep 4
record of his operations. This is the
key to success in any business But
the soil-tiller should attend to some
other matters in connection with his
accounts. A writer in an exchange
suggests that map Of the farm, with
each field numbered, and it's size,
quality of soil, ETC., specified, will be
great aid in keeping track of the
years transaction. How many farm
ers have such a guide and. convent
ence? And how many kept such a
memoranda the past year as will ena-
BILE them to tell the expense Of each
crop sown? And how about the do
mestic animals? If you keep cows
what have they paid you per head in
the aggregate? And what of sheep,
swine and even chickens? How much
did each contribute to your income,
and which was the most profitable?
Those who can answer these peril
nent questions must be well advised
in regard to their financial position,
and need no admonition; but we fear
many are utterly unable to give any
detailed account of their farming OPP
erations, or whether the balance is on
the right or wrong side of the ledger.
1t is. needless to say that such man
agenient would soon wreck any> com
mercial enterprise, aud hence the fire.
gnent complaint tlla farming don't
pay, is not surprising. We would
