GREEN FOOD FOR PIGS.
English Farmer Gives His Ideas Of
How to Make Cheap and Ex-
cellent Pork.

A writer IN the LOnuOn Live StOck
Journal, who seems to be talking out Of
his own experience, says:
Now, 1t is questionable whether
there Is better and cheaper way Of
making pork than to grow a field or two
of rape, clover or grass and clover root
mixed, and run therein number of
strong young shotes during the summer
months, shutting them up for period
Of from six to eight weeks in the au-
tumn and feeding them on some good
fattening food. when they will be ready
for the butcher. A pig should max good
pork, running from II to IL stone, in sew
en- months from birth. II is asserted. In
no way can he do II better than on the
lines indicated. Frame. bone and form
can be developed to perfection, and good
pasturage. combined with a daily feed
of grain food or milk and meal.
While good grass, clover or vetches
and clover make excellent pasture,
rape gives still better results. Pigs
thrive and feed on 1t amazingly. A
farmer, neighbor of mine, who keeps
a herd of approximately 200 pigs. speaFs
In the highest terms Of rape as green
food for them. 1t is useful crop in
other ways. as lambs do exceedingly well
on II.
1T would really appear that the sys-
tenn Of grazing pigs could be extended
from It's present narrow and restricted
limits with decided advantage. A field
or two Of rape. clover. etc. for summer
pasturing. with. perhaps. an acre or 60
OF artichokes in addition. would well re-
pay cultivation where pigs are kept in
any numbers"
