PUMPKINS FOR PIGS.
EesuIt of Experiments Recently Con.
ducted mt the Oregon AEricuI-
. tural station.

The Oregon Agricultural Expert
ment station in Bulletin No. 81 gives a
rather interesting experiment at that
station in feeding pumpkins to pigs.
The pumpkins were cooked, mixed
with shorts and sailed, and fed to
pigs weighing from $40 to 210 pounds
Mt the beginning of the experiment,
October 3d. 1897, no other feed but
shorts and pumpkins being given. The
amount of each feed per pound Of
gain made the first IA days was 15.45
pounds of pumpkins and 2.15 pounds
of shorts. For the second period Of
II days the six pigs ate 1875 pounds OF
pumpkins and 1853 pounds of shorts
and made gain of one pound for each
1895 pounds of pumpkins and 1.3
pounds of shorts. The third period
Of II days the hogs consumed 2,170
pounds of pumpkins and 252 pounds of
shorts, or 1439 pounds of pumpkins
and 40 pounds of shorts per pound Of
gain, The fourth period they con-
sumed 2,170 pounds of pumpkins and
1886 pounds of shorts, or 14.46 pounds
Of pumpkins and 2.54 pounds of shorts
per pound of gain.
Reckoning pumpkins at $3.50 per ton
end the shorts at $12, the cost per
pound of gain was 30 cents. The OBJ
ject was to secure as large con-
sumption of pumpkins as possible, but
the pigs did not seem to be satisfied
without an increased amount of shorts.
AS will be seen by the above, the
amount Of shorts consumed the last
period of IA days is double that con
sumed the first, while the increase
in pumpkins was about rs per cent.
The average daily gain during the
whole period was about ~ pounds
and the bacon produced of very SUI
perior quality. We believe gains can
be made much cheaper by substituting
during the later period, corn at pre-
ent prices for shorts at $12 per ton,
hut for growing pigs or milk cows
shorts would furnish a much better
balance than corn.

HOMEMADE CORN CUTTER.

the sled, is bolted to hardwood 2 by
A crosspiece (c) feet 10 inches long.
1t extends clear across the sled and is
spiked on. The seat (d) is "a feet
long, IL high, and spiked on. The
space (e) between the knives and sled
is filled with 2.lnch piece made to fit,
and is fastened securely. The spring
contrivance (f) for holding the strings
to tie the lunches or gallows hills is
just back OF the seat. Mine Is made
from n spring from an old steel trap;
when in place it is upside down from
what it was on the trap. A long spike
with a fattened head Is driven down
through the holes, The spike when
flattened looks like the letter T which
is turned crosswise Of the hole in the
spring so as to hold it down. The
strings are then put under the under
side of the spring which holds them

l cut shocks ten hills square. When
starting in I cut the two gallows hill
rows first and drive hill past where
the shock is to be, and stop. AS get
off the sled hold my corn in one arm
and pull twne string feet long from
the spring back of the seat. set up
punches together; father reaches
around and squeezes it up together
while | tie 1t; then we each take half
of our bunch by the butts and set them
out to the hills so they will stand, and
get on the sled and go again till we get
the gallows hill row cut clear through
the field; that leaves four rows on each
side to cut. Turn around and take two
rows back, and son on; when we get
even with each shock we stop the
horse, get off and set up our punches
and go on again.
With little practice one can set up
the corn so it will stand for weeks
without being tied. We had some that
stood all last winter that way. We let
them stand from one to three days to
wilt, then draw them tight about two
feet from the top and tie with binder
Irvine wound on spool that holds
enough for so shocks. I think this
handler and not so apt to tNngle; this
done, the shocks will stand.--J. T. Hub

FACTS FOR SToCKMEN.

Keep the collars clean if you would
prevent sore shoulders.
Feed your buttermilk to the hogs,
1t is excellent for them.
No better use can be made of clover
or alfalfa than to pasture hogs on it,
If the hog has good pasture it will
keep right on growing during the sum-
mer.
The mud puddle is the hogs bath
and the animal ought to have access
to one.
A number of advertised patent wa
tering arrangements for hogs are
worthless.
The wide-tired wagon will enable
you to haul bigger loads over dry,
powdery soil.
The hog must have pure drinking
water, Stops can never supply the
place of water.
Be humane enough to remove the
harness at the noon hour. The horse
merits this kindness.
We advise wet sponge on top of the
horses head on hot days, or shade over
the head. Do not place anything heavy
on top and close to the head.-Western
