Best Age for Brood sows.

There is one of the veXed questions
among swine breeders as we'll as tar-
mers. Our observation has been that
to breed only from young aDd not fully
matured sows is to lose size in the on
spring, says Michigan Farmer. II the
sow is a good one, the breeder is wise
in retaining her so long as she gives
him a fair-sized litter of good pigs
each year. We believe that many
breeders have lost size, bone, and con-
sequently stamina, from relying en-
tire1y upon young stock for breeding
animals. The farmer who raises hogs
for market, however, stands in a differ
ent position from the breeder. His
business is to furnish hogs for the
block in the best finished and cheapest
manner possible. Hence he must have
large filters of pigs which will mature
quickly, and when ready for market
will ship well and arrive at their des-
tination in the best condition to meet
market requirements. If he has a
brood SOW that is an extra good breed
er, gives large filters and raises them
well, then it is good policy to keep her
several years-or until she begins to
prove less satisfactory, and then mar
ket her. We believe a brood SOW is
always more satisfactory after she has
had at least one litter. She takes bet
ter care of the young pigs, and as a
rule is a better mother in every re
spect. To market a brood SOW after
having only one litter, and relying
always upon young ones, is not good
policy. 1t will be better to have those
a little older, and let the boar be the
youngest of the two. But each indi-
vidual case should be treated by itself.
The best policy is to make a careful
selection of the sows bred, and then
keep the one or more hat proves the
most satisfactory.

sin, Iowa and Missouri, I have been
taught that wherever the milk COW
is there is prosperity whether the eli
mate be good or bad. A COW will do
as much in southern Illinois as she
will in northern Illinois. When we
first began using milk COW in our part
of the state, COWS were selling at from
S15 to $40 each, but now good COWS
bring twice that. This is caused by
the increased demand and by the bet
ter breeding. Dairying has increased
the sociability of the farmers, for they
meet when they come to the creamery.
While they are waiting they discuss
how to make good butter and how to
keep their cattle. This has done won
ders. l know of towns where, in an
open winter, it is almost impossible
to get to them, and the towns that DO
not have creameries it is SO now.
The creameries have improved the
towns in which they have been built.
and the merchants in the towns favor
the creameries because they bring
about road Improvement and thus
make it easier for people to get to the
stores. Dairying in southern Illinois
has helped in the raising of both pigs
and poultry.

The best way to start in the poll-
try business on a large scale is to start
with only a few, learn al. YOU can
about chickens, and then try to freed
all the good birds you can take, care
of without crowding, the first year,
says Pacific Poultryman. If, at the
end of the year, you are satisfied to go
ahead, and have enough money on
hand to get everything ready for a
larger breeding flock, as we'll as to
carry you through the year for the nee
essaries of life, then you might quit
your job and start in: but remember,
that this first year is what counts.
You learn whether you have a taste
for the business, and get a pretty good
idea of raising poultry. The second
year you should be able to produce a
flock large enough to enable you to
go into it more heavily, and with or
binary success you should make a good
living off Of five hundred hens. we
should strongly advise you, when start
ing, to be governed by the following
rules: First start with the best to be
had; second, decide which you de-
sire to breed for-eggs or meat; third,
get one variety, and stay with it.

No other business man has creates
need of a frst-class team than the far
mer, no other has so good an oppor-

to the field with you. l want to say
with emphasis that a horse never gets
too hot to drink a few swallows. Every
one knows that the horse that mas
stood idle for some weeks or even
days, can not endure so much exertlon
as though he had regular daily work,
yet few realize the extent to which this
is true. Very many horses are over
taxed the first week of spring work.
Make it a business tC give every horse
intended for spring work, some work
during the winter. The mistaken kind
ness that works greatest injury to the
horse and lessons his ability for service
is that of allowing him to cool off dur
ing the day. A horse that has been
made to sweat profusely at his work
should not be allowed to rest SO long
at a time that perspiring will cease.
Stop often rather than long. The
race horse man never lets his charge
cool off after he has warmed him up
in the morning until after the race is
over. If he did he might as we'll keep
out Of the race. One other practice OF
many farmers is to be discouraged, that
of turning their horses into the field
at night as soon as the pastures start
in the spring. Allow him a little grass
daily as an appetizer, but do not allow
him to gorge himself with it.

Public Opinion, quoting La Nature
as authority, states. as the result OF
scientific investigation, that hay which
for any cause has been incompletely
dried before being put into the barn,
is exposed to danger from spontaneous
combustion. The microbes which ex'
list in all vegetable matter increase
enormously in hay which retains mois-
ture under the conditions mentioned,
By them intense heat is generated and
localized. Experiments have proved
that their presence and activity, under
favorable conditions, have caused a
rise of 800 degrees in the temperature
surrounding them. In the heated
depths the hay becomes carbonized,
and smolders slowly until the mass is
opened, or partially opened. Then the
action of the outer air invites instant
conlagration.

satisfactory. The glass is more dura'
BILE than stone, is as cheap, and is less
liable to gather and retain dirt. Archl'
tects are already suggesting its use as
material for house-building, n thus

people who live in glass houses may
ere long, find a basis in substantial
fact, in place of what has heretofore
been a purely rhetorical admonition.

Millet and Oats.

Millet should unquestionably be
looked upon as a staple crop in the
Northwest, says the Farmer. It is one
of Il most certain and reliable crops.
We can SOW it somewhat later in the
season, much after the fashion of a
catch crop" and when sown in time
we are reasonably sure of a catch of
the seed. Some persons are now SOW
ing a peck of oats along with two
pecks of millet per acre. From the
combination a larger amount of crop
can be obtained than by growing mil
let alone. The oats will reach that
stage when the grain is fully formed
by the time that the millet is ready to
be cut. And the mixture makes a val
liable amount of nutritious food. 1t
would seem to be a law of plant growth
that more will be retained by the soil
where a suitable combination of plants
is grown than where only one kind is
produced. Mr.. E. D. Childs of Crooks
ton, one of the most extensive dairy
men in the Red River Valley. has
practiced growing millet and bats thus
for some time, and is pleased with the
results. The one crop would seem. as
it were, to be the complement of the
other.

An Immediate and Permanent Pas

An Immediate and Permanent Pasture.
Wallace's Farmer: Mr.. Frank Seek
Ter, of %Iroquois county, Illinois, writes
us that he has a farm in Harrison
county, Iowa, on the Missouri river
bottom, that he has no pasture on
same, and that he wants one right
away that will become permanent later
on. The land is now in wheat stubble
m he wishes to know what to do. We
would first burn off the wheat stub
bic, then plow the land rather deep,
say five or six inches and turn the
weed seeds under. We would then SOW
a mixture of oats, barley, spring wheat
and winter rye, taking about one
fourth of what would be a proper SOW
ing OF each, and at the same time sow
SIX or eight pounds of timothy, four
pounds of mammoth clover, four
pounds OF common red, and if the land
is inclined to be wet a pound or two
OF alsike, and give these the same COW
ering that would ordinarily be given
the grains. We would then SOW seven
pounds of blue grass, mixing it with
sand or sawdust, so as to get an even
distribution, and harrow this in with a
light smoothing harrow. AS soon as
the grains will furnish a full bite, we
would pasture and continue p~asturing
until harvest time. The pasturing will
keep down the grains and give the
grasses a chance, and with an ordinary
season you should have a fine stand
OF clover when the grains are done. We
would then turn off the stock until
about September. If even then a half
stand of blue grass is obtained it will
thicken UP IS fast as the clovers go
out. This is rather full seeding, but
we presume our correspondent want
a pasture that is worth something, and
this is the shortest and easiest way to
get =.
