FOR THE FARM Err.

The hog is not able to endure severe
cold weather, yet it is kept in the most
uncomfortable situation. The pig pen
should be well Uttered and dry, and
the shelter should contain no cracks
or openings for drafts of air.
1t is feared that as sugar beet seed
is nearly all imported the result will be
the introduction of fungoid diseases.
About Is pounds of seed are required
for an acre, and the crop will pay If
grown only for stock.
Sheep are considered valuable agents
in enriching land. They scatter their
droppings uniformly and press them
into the soil. By keeping the grass
close they thicken it, and they destroy
weeds because they have fondness
for certain kinds that no other animal
on the farm will eat.
1t is estimated that the potato crop is
70,000,000 bushels less than last year.
Farmers are disposed to shorten a crop
the following year if there is surplus,
and the result is better prices because
the supply is less than the demand. A
farmer who watches the markets and
has noticed that a short yield follows
one that is heavy will plant more in
stead of growing a smaller crop after
a year of plenty.
