AGRICULTURAL.
The Brood Sow.

Great care should be taken in look
ing after the brood SOW. If she is poor
in flesh she should be fed up so as to
be in good flesh by the time she is
ready to arrow. Not that she should
be too fat, but in good flesh so she will
better be able to withstand the draft
made on her by litter of pigs. 1t is
mistake to have sows thin in flesh at
narrowing time, as some advocate
They will get thin in flesh even in
good condition at narrowing. If The
SOW is poor, says John M, jameson in
National Stockman, she may be fed
quite freely on corn up 10 within eight
weeks of narrowing time, when she
should be gradually put on diet of
bran and middlings, with potatoes,
slops, roots, or any such things as you
happen to have. Ii is always well to
plant some mangels and keep them to
feed your brood sows on the last month
before narrowing. Nothing will put
them in better condition for narrowing
than feed of roots once day. One
of the greatest profits in hog raising is
the saving of all the young pigs. I'M
proper care and feeding of the brood
SOW is the principal cause of such seri-
GUS losses in young pigs. When corn
is cheap look out for large losses of
pigs. Too much corn will be fed, with
this result. This has been the case
with me, and l learned lesson, and
costly one, too. We have put away 200
bushels of sugar beets to feed our sows
next spring, and hope TO have better
results.
The SOW should have quiet place
by herself, and not be allow, d to nest
together with lot of other hogs. They
are liable to bunch up in cold weather,
and when the little pigs come there
will be lot of dead one to lpay you for
your carelessness.
There is nothing better for brood
SOW than small pen just large enough
for her. A pen six feet square that
opens into small yard is large enough.
Make a pen after the chicken coop
plan, by taking a board twelve feet
long and saving it in two in the middle
and mailing them together in the shape
of an A. Make these six feet square
on the bottom. If the ground is dry,
you will need no floor
Make door in the end facing the
south large enough for the SOW to en-
ter, and hang an old blanket for door
Put hole in the opposite gable end
for ventilation. Put scantlipg across
the back end about ten inches from the
ground and about the same distance
out from the wall. This acts as fen
der to protect the pigs when the SOW
lies down. The slanting sides of the
pen Will protect them in this direction.
L have often seen sows lie down when
they would have killed their pigs had
it not been for this protection.
Never bed your sows with buck
wheat straw nor oat straw. Dat straw
is not 80 bad as buckwheat, but if hogs
are continually bedded with it it will
make them itch, and they will not do
well. Wheat straw or cut cornstalks is
good, and should be changed fire.
quently. Nothing appreciates a good
bed more than hog. Don't think
that because it is hog that anything is
good enough.
