FATTENlNG HOGS.

There Arc Profitable and Improbable
Ways OF Doing It
One Thousand bushels of corn should
make 10000 pounds Of pork, which. d.
vided among 20 fngs, would give 143
pounds per hea.. This would be .
fair allowance of clear fat to the head.
provided clover would make the
frame. etc. to an equal weight, giving
800 pounds as the gross weight Of the
hog at selling time. On the system of
fattening on old corn for the early
market, this would be = fair weight
for . spring pig to attain. and the
owner would have no reason to
complain If it did not reach
$50 pounds. Allowing 10 pounds
of pork to the bushel of corn in the
above estimate does not reserve any
for winter feeding. etc, but against
this should be counted the undoubted
fact that hogs running on clover all
summer, and finished OF on old corn
for . month or six weeks. will lay on
over ten pounds Of pork to the bushel.
Twelve or thirteen pounds would be
nearer the mark.
Pigs dropped in March or April
should receive liberal feeds Of slops for
st least three months. Of which the
basis must be cows milk. II this is
hacking, many will die OF dis
ease before green feed comes,
and the remainder can never be
forced along fast enough to At
tain a weight Of two hundred and City
pounds in early fall. To winter hogs
chiefly on corn is not only very diff
cult on account Of the tendency to dis
ease ON this constituting feed. but it
is scarcely profitable.

The experience of man eighty years
old about hog cholera preventive:
In 1861. in improving = new farm, in
burning large log pile, there was .
large slab some twelve feet long and
two feet wide, and it was where made
my hog pen. on q bank, to fatten my
hogs. Once a week l would sprinkle
= half pint of salt on the charred
trough and fed them corn in the ashes
of the log pile. had about thirty.five
hogs, big and little. running in the
woods. and fed them on corn, and they
got the pecan and acorn mast. and they
all died but one SOW and two shoats.
Then in 1866 had . large number Of
hogs, and in the summer three died
with the cholera and one was sick. I
put it in lot by itself in the morning
and my wife and girls were washing
that day. SO put half gallon Of
and . man and family from Pennsyl-
vania were boarding with me At that
time. The man said that strong soap.
suds would cure hog cholera put
the suds from that days washing in .
barrel. and the next morning thick
skum raised to the top I stirred all
up and gave it to the sick hog, also tho
corn that l boiled IN ashes. 1t got
we'll, but it shed all of its hair In q
short time, and made large hog 1t
killing time.
I give my hogs all the stove ashes.
and there is some charcoal with them,
Sometimes / take ears Of corn and
scorch it in = quick fire and feed it to
the hogs to prevent the cholera.
Therefore l have no hog cholera, and
