A Forest and Stream writer once put an
automatic music box out in the grass and
spent many hours watching the robins,
bluebirds, and other birds gathering about
1t. A looking glass, put up where the
birds can see themselves in It, Is also very
attractive, while combination of a music

Hog Cholera.

Hog cholera makes fearful rava-
ges wherever it appears on farms,
and although hundreds of remedies
have been suggested, yet there is no
sure cure known. Experiments
show, however, that where the dis
ease appears most frequently is on
farms where the hogs are inbred and
confined too closely to a grain diet.
Feeding slop Of a filthy kind is also
a cause. To avoid the disease feed
the hogs on variety of food, max
ing grass an article of diet, give
clean water, and procure new males
every year.

Feeding hay to hogs may seem
new, yet there are farmers who pro-
vide bulky food TO their hogs in
Winter, when green food is scarce,
by cutting clover hay very short
and steaming or scalding it. The
cut hay, after it becomes softened,
is sprinkled with bran or corn meal
and fed warm. 1t is not only highly
relished by the hogs, but promotes
thrift, and is as cheap as corn, serv-
ing also to afford a balanced ration
