Finishing Hogs.

Bulletin 100, U. S. Department of Ag-
riculture: So long as a pig is making
a fair gain on feed of which he gets at
least one-half by grazing it is usually
profitable to keep him, but after he
reaches salable maturity, is in mar
ketable condition, and draws a large
proportion of his feed from the crib, ne
should be sold at once.
Usually it is better to have hogs
ready for market as early as NSvem-
Der or December, and it rarely pays
to feed through the winter for making
pork. Summer feeding is cheap, While
winter feeding is expensive. Pigs far
rowed in the spring should weigh from
200 to $50 pounds by fall, and If the
market is not unusually depressed 1T
is better to let them go then
rather than to feed through
she cold weather and risk
still lower prices in the spring.
If good grazing is assured through the
entire winter and grain is not too eX-
pensive, winter feeding is sometimes
profitable on account of the higher
prices which usually prevail in the
spring. but ordinarily it is better to
winter only the breeding animals and
the fall pigs.
For the last few weeks of fattening,
corn is undoubtedly the best grain
feed, as it produces meat which is Of
good flavor, prime and wholesome.
Hogs can be fattened cheaply on many
other feeds, but the meat is greatly
modified by the feed consumed dur
ing the last six or eight weeks, and
animals which have been fatteneG on
peanuts, cowpeas, mast, and similar
foods should have corn as their finish
ing feed. Peanuts especially have a
very softening effect on the lard, as is
shown by Duggar, who found the melt
ing point of lard from corn-fed pigs to
he 111.2 degrees F., while that from
peanut-fed pigs is only 76.1 degrees F..
Feeding for the finish should not be-
gin more than ten or twelve weeks
before the hogs are to be sold. Hogs
which have had good grazing through
the summer and enough grain feed to
keen them growing we'll take on flesh
RAPIDLY during the first few weeks Of
heavy feeding, but the longer the feed
ing is continued the slower and more
expensive will be the gains.

The days are coming when all OF
our farms that are now regarded as
worn out and about useless will be
brought back to their former state OF
fertility. Already the process has
been going on for decade, and the
good results are being seen. We
might refer to such counties as that
O: jefferson, in Wisconsin, where the
land, through decades of wheat grow
ing had been reduced to a point in
fertility below profitableness, but have
now, by means of clover and dairyinS,
been brought back to such state Of
fertility that heavy wheat crops can
be grown. The fertility power of the
legume is being appreciated, and the
knowledge of it is spreading very rap
idly among our farmers, even to those
that neither read agricultural papers
nor attend agricultural conventions.
The land, however, cannot be re-
claimed by trying to grow wheat while
it is still exhausted. That crop must
be left off altogether for time, while
clover and other legumes are per-
mitted to occupy us place. Wnen
wheat is again put on it must be grown
in a well-balanced rotation with clover
and other crops.
Every intelligent farmer that has an
exhausted farm should make the res
torati of that farm 70 its former
fertility the chief end of his farming
operations. The fertility in his land
is his capital and every increase Of
that capital means better living for
himself and those that come after
him. The discovery of the true mean
ing of the tubercle on the roots of all
legumes is blessing that belongs to
our day. The man that makes use OF
this knowledge will rise superior to his
surroundings and conditions. The de-
tail of applying this knowledge is a
matter that each intelligent man must
settle for himself.

How Hogs Get Diseases.-Much has
been written in regard to corn feeding
predisposing the hog to disease, and
it was thought dairy districts were
not so liable to disease; but that fall
lacy has been exploded, and it is now
quite evident that the germs of swine
disease, like typhoid fever or other
human diseases, is largely due to the
accumulation of filth in water. or by
accumulations OF dust by wind. We
consider a dustbed very harmful to
pigs, and they should not be allowed
to lie under buildings. where they soon
accumulate a bed Of dust.-Joel in Elk.
