Feeding Young Pigs.

The cause of some of the failures in
raising young pigs profitably is Glue to
the improper methods of handling
them when young. There may be diff
ferences of opinion as to methods of
feeding, and undoubtedly some feeds
do better in the hands of some feeders
than with others. On the other hand,
the fact remains that the usual plan
of letting the young pigs feed with the
old one is wrong; it is well enough to
do this, perhaps, while the pig is learn
ing to eat, but when it is weaned it
must have better chance of getting
its share of the food than is possible
when fed with the mother. Troughs
for the young pigs should be built low
and be placed where the old hog can
not get into it. If the usual ground
feeds are given the pigs, any of them
will be much improved il the mixing
of them is done with warm skinned
milk. Give the growing pigs a chance
in the manner suggested and the re-
suits will be added profit.
