Wheat and Corn For Producing Pork.

Some experiments made at the Ohio
State University shows that bushel of
wheat produced 1877 pounds of pork.
while bushel of corn made 1913
pounds. When the difference of weight
between bushel of wheat and BUSH
ell OF corn is considered, the actual gain,
it is seen, is almost the same for both.
Calculated on the market price of
wheat and Indian corn, it costs $4.01 to
produce one hundred pounds increase
with wheat and 1886 to produce the
same increase with Indian corn.
Carefully weighing all the reliable
evidence at hand. the conclusion is
reached that from the point of view of
chemical composition, of digestability
and of nutritive value, Indian corn,
with its products, pound for pound, is
fully equivalent to wheat. In the case
of food for man, there must be taken
into account the additional element of
palatability. 1t is evident that in the
case of two given foods of almost the
same chemical composition, and of
equal digestabiity, the more palatable
will be the most valuable food for man.
In regard to palatability, as has already
been mentioned, there is the widest
difference of opinion. In the United
States, and particularly in the South,
corn bread is considered by many the
peer of "light' bread, and corn cake
and Johnny cake are relished by al
most all classes. In Europe, however,
there is generally a strong prejudice
against 1t. 1t is condemned as only

To Improve Present Opportunities.

: Hundreds of farmers are regretting
that they did not improve their live
stock more in the past by using better
sires in their herds of cattle, sheep and
swine, writes L. j. Fitzsimmons in
"Prairie Farmer" This is world of
Improvement and invention and those
who HAYS been improving their farms
and live stock are now reaping their
reward; for never were prices higher
for pure bred stock. The demand for
good breeding stock throughout the
country was never better than at the
present time, and my opinion is that it
is liable to continue so for number of
years to come. There is no question
about the short supply Of beef cattle in
the United States. Government statis-
tics show over 100000 short since
1894, hence we have an increased de-
mand and reduced supply. The
ranchmen of the south and west are
shipping the best beef bulls to their
ranches by the carload and the farmers
of other sections had better keep pace
or they are liable to fall behind in the
improvement OF their.stock. My advice
is to use only the best sires in the herds
and the improvement will soon be
noted, and you may yet realize some
benefit from it ere the tide turns. The
prosperity of the farmers, those who
had the wisdom and foresight to main
tain and improve their herds and fiocks,
is emphatically shown by the wonder
full increase in value of all farm ami
mails the past year. To those who have
been regretting that they did not do
better in the past let me say, begin to-
day to improve in every line Of your
occupation, you cannot afford to waste
any more time, but get right down to
business at once.
Improve your farms by better meth
DDS of farming, such as a good crop ro-
tation and better feeding and breeding
of live stock. Keep stock enough to
consume all the rough feed you grow
on your farm and the manure from the
same will help to keep ap the fertility
of the soil, then before you are aware
you will be realizing benefits from your
improvements in better prices for your
better grade of live stock. AS gen.
eral thing at the present time, there is
a wide range in prices between the
scrub and the high-grade or pure-bred
cattle, wide enough to warrant il
more profitable to keep the better
grades. Every farmer should take
pride in his work and study we'll the
best methods of feeding and managing
his stock and farm. Think of the
satisfaction in having better and fattel
stock than your neighborsl At the
present time there is generation Of
farmers taking the place of their faith
ers under far more favorable circum
stances than their fathers had. New
and better homes, new and better i'm
plements, more intercourse with and
knowledge Of the world, its business
markets and demands, and increased
nearness to the social pulse of village
or city life, are among the improved
conditions. They are brought much
closer to the business world.

hog or chicken food, and little is known
of attractive methods of preparing it
for the table. In the great famine of
Ireland, when shipload of cornmeal
was sent from this country, the poor
people did not know enough even to

and the barrels of meal afforded but

AGRICULTURAL.
Hogs for Limited Capital.

CATER all the talk about the latest
method of farming and the necessity
of keeping up to date there are many
young farmers who would like to do all
this, but they lack the necessary CAPT
ital to begin WITH" says writer in
Michigan Farmer. 81 have been par
ticulsrly struck with this in hog rails
ing. When young man starts in he
has only small amount of capital, and
he has to struggle along the best he
can. 1t is absurd to tell him that he
should adopt all the latest improve
ments and breeds and conduct first
class farm for raising hogs. He does
not have the capital to begin with, and
he must do things that he knows are
not the most approved. The way that
some of these young farmers struggle
along and gradually build up a good
business and add to their incomes and
capital would make mighty interesting
reading for the more slothful if it could
be written out. Think of starting out
with half a dozen pigs, a few acres and
a mortgaged home, and within ten
years be the happy possessor of one
hundred acres, two hundred head of
hogs and cattle and pleasant home
with no debt on it'll That is what one
young man accomplished in this State,
and today he says that he made his sue
cess in hogs.
"He realized that he had to econo-
mize in every way possible, and, while
reading all that was printed about high
grade stock and scientific methods of
feeding he knew that he could not go
and initiate it. He did not have the
money to buy stock with, or to get the
feed. But he had good health, few
hogs and chance. So he proceeded
to raise grass, corn, milk and hogs.
From these four products of the farm
he made living and saved up some
thing each year except the first. That
was the hardest time of all because the
land was run down and poor, and the
grass did not grow well. He seeded it
over the next year, raised more clover
and timothy then had ever been raised
there before, permitted the hogs to
feed on it only to limited extent, fear
ing lest they would destroy the young
roots. In two seasons he had convert
ed the poor grass pastures into good
grass fields where his hogs could feed.
After getting the grass field into fine
condition he secured some adjacent
land on lease for corn. He plowed
and fertilized this until he had increas-
his his debt, and then he raised such
crop of corn that he felt justified in
increasing the number of his hogs.
With grass and corn fourishing he was
prepared to add cows to his stock, and
with good skim milk to wean the young
pigs he soon found no difficulty in in
creasing his herd. He did all the work
himself, and never thought of hiring a
man even in the busiest season until
the fourth year of his farming. Then
he had 30 far succeeded and demon
strated to himself that he was on the
right track, that he hired man DUR
ing the rush season. Two years later
he married, and ever since he has
steadily added year by year to his cap
ital and income. His theory of success
is based upon hard and intelligent
work applied to the raising of grass,
corn, milk and hogs"
