Animals Crowded In Small Pens
Meke Poor Pork.
1t is a mistake to suppose that at any
period of hogs life, from birth to the
day of slaughter, he Is better of with
out exercise. Many, if not most. of our
farmers make rail pens not more than
seven feet square inside measure and
besides the feed trough put in from
four to six hogs. Thus crowded they
cannot lie down even with comfort,
and the continued 'scrouging' is all
the exercise they get Hogs that are
kept in such pens, necessarily filthy
and nearly always muddy. whether it
rains or not, may take on fat rapidly.
but not flesh.
The increase in weight is from dis
eased condition Of the digestive organs
and the organs of elimination which re-
suits in deposits Of fat, mingled with
scrofulous tubercles and degenerated
glands. We don't want any such
meat. The hog, even up to killing time,
should have plenty Of fresh air, exer-
else and room to keep himself clean,
which he will do If afforded an oppor-
tunity and which he cannot do when
confined in a narrow cage like a GRIM
inai. The average pigpen is place of
torture and should be abolished and is
abolished by all intelligent and humane
hog raisers.

RAISING THRIFTY LAMBS.
Much Depends on Care Given Ewes
During the Winter.

Much Depends on Care Given Ewes
During the Winter.
No small part of the success in rails
ing lambs depends upon the care given
the ewes during the winter. 1t is much
easier to grow and fatten a thrifty
lamb that is of good size and vigorous
when dropped than one that has been
stunted before birth and that has to
overcome the weakness if not disease
that 1t may inherit from parent that
is weakened either by scanty feeding
or by overlooking and getting too fat.
Give the eve enough to eat, but let it
be of such character as to build up
her frame and that Of the young she is
carrying and not to fatten her, says
an experienced sheep raiser. For this
purpose we always wanted clover hay
or the best early cut fine hay we had
and a supply Of roots, for which pur-
pose we found none that we could pro-
duce easier or cheaper than the fiat tur-
nip. and we knew Of none that served
our purpose better. We also gave the
ewes chance to take run in the field
every day when 1T was not raining or
showing too hard. Thus they were
firm of flesh, muscular and neither fat
nor lean. and they would supply milk
for the lambs even when they had
twins!
The lambs were dropped strong. and
they gained rapidly. The ewes had a
little grain every day in winter, either
bran or oats. and if we chose to give a
little corn fodder, cut up instead of the
hay, or if we thought our hay was not
quite as good as usual, little corn
went with the oats or cornmeal with
the bran. say about one-third part. We
used to like to make such a change
when there was very cold weather, as
they not only would eat the coarse
fodder better then. but would bear the
more heating grain.

MARKETING STEERS.
Most Profitable Method Of Handing
Those Grown a. Feeders.

Most Profitable Method Of Handing
Those Grown a. Feeders.
Professor c. F. Curtis Of the Iowa
experiment station, in answer to an in
quiry from stock grower of that sec
ton as to the best time to dispose of
the progeny OF Shorthorn bulls out of
grade cows, says in The Breeders Ga
zette: s.-. -.-..-r .
The question involved here, however,
Is whether it will pay best to turn of
the steers grown on the farm as feeders
at the age Of II to Is months or carry
them a year longer and finish them
for market. In view Of the conditions
named and the good breeding and quail
ity of the cattle mentioned I have no
hesitancy in advising in this case that
the cattle be finished for market.
would suggest, however, that libens;
al feeding be practiced from the begin
ming instead of at the age Of IS to 20
months, as mentioned. Under the con-
ditions prevailing in the locality from
which this inquiry comes Qowa it will
probably prove to be most profitable to
have the cattle ready for market at
from 20 to "a months Of age INSTEAD Of
carrying them until about this age be-
fore beginning to fatten them.
Other things being equal, the younger
steer is much the more economical beef
producer, and another point we'll worth
considering is, the fact that a better
carcass Of beef can be grown by liber-
al feeding throughout the life Of the
animal than by taking year and
half to grow the framework, followed
by six months or a year to make the
fat. In other words, the fat should be
made along with the growth in such
way as to incorporate it in and make it
q part of the muscular tissue, where it
will give quality and flavor and thicken
the high priced cuts rather than be
deposited as an external layer and
about the internal organs, as is the
tendency where animals are forced to
their limit in a fattening period after
they have practically reached maturity.
1t is better, as Mr.. Kerrick tersely says
and has amply demonstrated, to ''grow
beef rather than fatten CATTLE"

Flenty Of Good Water Should .

F1snty Of Good Water SHOULD ~
Kept In Easy Reach.
The successful feeder knows the val
ne Of having good water within easy
reach of his cattle. When steers are
doing their best, they acquire disease
which we may call laxiness. and there
fore 1t is very essential that water be
near at hand at all times. If not, they
will endure the pain Of thirst for some
time rather than move about much to
quench 1t. .-- =. E/s
If water is handy. they will drink
from three to five times daily, while
on the other hand IL 1t is necessary to
slip down a steep creek bank and wade
in the mud in order to get to the wa
ter's edge they will drink only once or
twice daily and Of course all they can
hold each time. Probably no bad ef-
fects would be noticed, yet the best re-
suits are not to be expected when such
conditions exist. r<
Tanks are used by most stockmen,
and in this way water is brought with
in easy reach of the cattle. Yet during
the winter months it is no little chore
to keep the ice broken so they may
drink when they are thirsty. Besides,
tbs clear to all that an animal cannot
make the best gains when it must push
away the pieces of ice in order to get a
sip of the freezing water and after hav-
Ing; just partially quenched its thirst

Here again the fattening steer will
not drink the required amount of water
to produce the best results, because the
water is too cold, it is not palatable.
it makes the teeth ache, chills the ami
NAL and retards digestion for a time.
There is no better investment for a
man who intends to feed cattle during
the winter than to buy tank heater.
These heaters have been used success
fully and with good results at the Kan
sas State Agricultural college. One will
be all that is needed in q tank large
enough to water from 40 to 60 head of
cattle.

MIXED HOG BREEDS.
Not So Satisfactory as Those of Pur
Blood.

Not So Satisfactory as Those of Pure
The Kansas experiment station test
ed the feeding of some pure bred Po-
land-China and Berkshire hogs along
with some hogs of mixed breeds, such
as are kept by the average farmer,
and they found it required from 10 to
80 per cent more of food to make 100
pounds Of gain on the mixed breeds
than on the pure bred.
While some Of the mixed breeds
would stand heavy feeding and give
good returns for their food. there were
some good in the hind quarters, but too
low in front and with weak heart &C
ton. They would not stand heavy
feeding, got off their feed easily, did
not have strong constitutions and east
ly succumbed to disease. Others were
short. fine boned, blocky chunks that
fattened quickly, but would not eat
enough to make profitable gain.
Those that made the best gains were
well boned. with both fore and hind
quarters we'll developed. rather rangy,
large through the heart and with legs
of fair length.

"a IL =
Grass and Crop Farming Demand
His First Attention - Cheap and
Nourishing Food at All ssasons
Necessary to Success.
The owner of good flock Of sheep
needs to study pastures and grasses
more than any other side of his bust
ness. The sheep owner should be the
most practical hay and crop farmer in
the country. Hired labor at a nominal
sum can look after the sheep and see
that they are properly fed and housed
at night, but raising Of grass pastures,
fodder and other food cannot be trust
ed to any except the intelligent owner,
says correspondent of The American
Cultivator. Now, it goes without say
ing that with plenty of food provided
for the sheep at all seasons Of the year,
good shelter and fair stock to begin
with the work Of increasing the herd
and the mutton and wool supply is not
very difficult or complicated. The rub
comes in to find sufficient nourishing
food for the sheep at all seasons Of the
year at relatively low cost.
To do this the owner must become
crop farmer. He must give up his best

posts eight feet above the ground.
These posts should be set deep enough
in the ground to give solidity to the
we'll to place them not more than eight
feet apart.
: The outside posts should be set the
same distance apart and should be two
or three feet lower than the middle
row. Lay poles across the tops of
these also. If it is not possible to OBJ
tain crotches, the poles can be fiattened
at the ends and spiked to the posts;
then cut po-es long enough to reach
from the ridgepole to the outside and
extend over a foot or so. Notch these
poles where they lay over the ridge
and cave poles. This will keep them
in place. These poles should be laid at
distance not to exceed three feet.
Over these, crossing them, put on lay
er Of fine branches, with a few poles
to support the straw, which is to be
thrown on to complete the roof. When
enough straw has been thrown on,
weight and fasten in place, so it will
not blow off.
For the sides set posts extending to
the top of the roof and about three feet
from the roof supporting posts; then
fill in the spaces between with straw,
with poles lying horizontally just in
side the posts to keep it in place. Near
the bottom for a distance as high as
the hogs can reach the poles should be
put close enough together to prevent
the hogs from pulling the straw out.
The door should be made on the south
side. 1t is not necessary to have this
more than three feet wide and four
high. 1t can be put in by setting posts
and building up the sides of the door
frame as the side walls are being built.
When the door has reached the desired
height, half dozen poles laid across
will support the straw wall to be built
above. For closing the opening door
can be made of lumber or the opening
left, as little cold will enter.
If there Is any better material for
the roof than straw at hand, such as
long slough grass or cane, it can be
used, as it will turn the water better.
The shed should be built on high ground
and the inside filled in so that there
will be no surface water running into

cry two or three years. and this will
take but little work. as the posts and
