University Agricultural Exper'mer
Feeding Hogs For Quality Of Meat.

An inquiry has recently come to
the Indiana Experiment station
from one of our well known swine
breeders, Mr.. L. N. Barker, relative
to the most desirable food for pre-
pairing pigs for the market.
The market today demands pork
with a fair mixture of lean meat,
such as can not be produced as a
rule by a pure corn diet. The best
results will be secured by using two
or more kinds of grain, and also
skim milk, if it can be obtained.
The general iun Of feeding expert
ments in this country have shown
that where corn meal and shorts were
fed, the meat showed more lean,
than when corn was fed alone. At
the Wisconsin experiment station,
a mixture of 431 lbs. corn meal and
shorts, half and half, fed wet, pro-
duced 100 lbs. Of gain, as compared
with 7S4 lbs. whole corn or 517 lbs.
corn meal, to make 100 lbs. gain.
The shorts are muscle forming
foods, and where these are used, Y
more vigorous pig usually results.
Ground barley OF oats may also be
fed with corn to great advantage.
There are many farmers in Indiana
who grow oats extensively, besides
corn, who could feed them to stock
hogs, with corn, to far greater profit
than selling them at IL cents per
| bushel.
In a letter to this station, Mr..
Barker says: "My own expert
ments in feeding hogs to produce the
best quality OF meat, have been sim
liar to those you speak Of and those
of Prof. w. A. Henry, only | did
not feed as much meal or corn. |
fed ground wheat and oats in equal
parts, and not more than one-fourth
corn. l also fed skim milk and ripe
pumpkins in connection with these,
and secured a much larger per cent.
of lean meat than when fed exclus-
lively on corn, and also a much
stronger bone and a healthier hog
and Of urs better pork"
The farmers of Indiana ought not
to allow a pound Of skim milk to GO
to waste, from the creameries OF
farm diaries. 1t can be fed to great
profit to growing pigs, for it will as
siss in rapid flesh development.
Corn, shorts and skim milk make a
combination that will produce a
high grade Of pork. Or wheat may
replace the shorts. These foods as
sist in producing flesh SO rapidly as
to enable the feeder to dispose ofhi-

Wednesday morning Mrs. Clara
Peters, Misses Minnie Sprauer and
Theresa Greener, all of Hunting
burg, each filed separate afiidavits
before Esq. Zoeller, charging Theo-
dore Goldman, Frank Gliding and
Henry Bromm, leading young men
of Ferdinand, with having provoked
them. The men after much parley-
ing, and hard persistent begging OF
the ladies by Theo. Goldman for
them to let him off, finally plead
guilty, and the Squire fined them$ 81
in each case, with $9.77 costs-mak
ing the three cases cost each OF
them $32. 80. The ladies' say that
they had visited st. Meinrad on
last Thanksgiving day, and came
back to Ferdinand and stopped to
enjoy a dance that was going on at
Bromm's; that they danced until
after 3 O'Clock next morning; that
they then found the hotels were
closed, and their carriage driver had
gone to sleep at a hotel. Mrs.
Bromm rendered them a room,
which they accepted as the best to
be had under the circumstances,
although there was but n bed in
it for the three; being tired they I'M
dressed and two of them went to
bed, when they we're surprised by
the three men coming in on them.
They ordered the men out and, at
ter some difficulty, got them to 60.
The ladies then locked their room
