TREATMENT OF PIGS.
A Mixed Diet Usually Produces satis-
 factory Results.

factory RcbuAts.
 The treatment of pigs intended for porkers and those intended for bacon should from the age of 12 or IA weeks be somewhat different. The former may be pushed on sharply. and fed at least three times day, says National Provisioner, but care should be taken not to give more food at each menl than is thoroughly cleaned up. Agood mixture of two or three sorts of ground corn. either scalded or steamed, with the addition of some boiled potatoes, manp!es or swedes, and little skim milk, will make porkers fit for the mar ket in four or five months. Pigs intend- ed for bacon should be'allowed far amount of exercise, and for the first four or five months need only be fed twice day, on such food as will pro- mote growth and produce flesh rather than fat, but they should never be all lowed to stop growing nor to lose their suckers flesh. When put up to feed, the change to richer food should be gradual. Opinions vary very much as to whether it is desirable to give meal raw or cooked; for my part. l have found the best results from cooked food. .3sse
 As regards the diet on which bacon pigs should be fed. it Is impossible to lay down any hard and fast rules. The pig. of all animals, thrives best on a mixed diet, and every pig feeder must decide for himself what is the mixture that he can most economically use. having regard to the produce of his country. There is no doubt barley meal is one of the best al1-round foods for the production of good bacon, with the addition of small quantity of pea or bean meal, and fourths flour. Maize meal is most useful food In small quantities, but 1t should always be scalded or boiled, and never be used ex- clusively, or as the principal ingredi- ent in food where high class, streaky bacon is desired. as its tendency is to produce fat. It is of the utmost impor- tance that pigs should be fed at regu- lar intervals. When this is not attend ed to they become restless and do not thrive as they ought to. The food should be varied from time to time, as nothing promotes 3 good appetite like change of food. , |,

Why DnIed Hay Ia Musty.

Much of the baled hay that comes to market is musty. Most farmers when they bale hay think it need not be very dry. as the bales are small. But the amount of hay packed in them is always sufficient to get up violent ferment unless the hay is properly dried before it is put into the bale. If there were more care used in baling hay the price for it would be much better than it is, as the hay itself would be better worth it.
