THE HOG FOR THE r M
It's the Kind That Grows Well and
Can Be Made Ready for
Market Quickly.

Says a swine grower: The general
market kind. Be he white, black or red,
lop-eared or s~tiff-eared, the farmers Of
this country will demand the early-ma-
turing kind. He will consume our corn
and remain the corn-belt hog withal,
hut the signs of the times point to the
modification of the present corn-belt
type.
He is found in most of the corn-belt
breeds to a greater or lesser degree, and
a man need not leave the breed to which
he is attached to find his ideal. Each
breeder of pure breeds may think he has
the type closest to the general purpose
hog. He has that right. However, il he
does not do all in his power to keep close
to that type, the farmers will forcibly re-
mind him of his failure in a way that will
affect his pocket book, by purchasing
their new brood elsewhere.
Technically speaking, he is at present
wide and short of head, deep of heart and
sides, broad of back, with a soft coat,
and just enough bone to carry him to
market. The tendency to excessive bone
has not always been found conducive to
easy feeding, early maturing qualities.
Enough is enough. His disposition
must be quiet. He must ever be ready
to make friends with his master, and his
general character should indicate the
easy feeder.
He should be practically fat and ready
for market at any period of his life, and
finish at nine months old, when he
should weigh a high mark to shoot at.
Why do we want the early-maturing
kind? Because the first part of a hogs
life is the period of rapid growth.
Prof. Henry shows, in his Feeds and
Feeding" that a pig gains IS per cent. Of
growth the first week of its life, but grad
ually drops in its per cent. of gain till
say, the tenth week, when it makes but
81 per cent. per week.

PROFIT IN RAPID GROWTH.
Some Reasons Why Early Spring
Pigs Should Be Marketed in
October or November.

it is claimed by the Indiana expert
ment station that for pigs narrowed
in March, April, or May, October and
November is the proper time for prof
itably converting them into pork. 1t Is
late enough to usually avoid the severe
weather of the season, and enables
them to be grown during the summer
season and fattened before the winter
sets in.
1t offers an opportunity to have the
pigs do their growing during that sea-
son of the year when grass or pasture
is in condition to be used. They can
actually be reared at less cost than
during any other period of the year. 1t
is possible to plant green spring crops
hat will furnish cheap feed for the
filters and sows, and do much towards
promoting the development of bone
and flesh. From experience of feeders
at the experiment stations, the pig in
creases with greatest profit until six or
seven months ola, when it has reached
the maximum. After that the gains
require a larger amount of grain to
produce a given amount of pork, and
they should be fattened and disposed
of.
One bushel Of corn made 1877 pounds
of pork at six months old, at seven
months old [ bushel made 1872
pounds, and at eight months old one
bushel made 1875 pounds. While there
are varying conditions that have thei-
influence upon the amount of gain
made, it is a general principle that
after six or seven months the amount
Of grain from a bushel of corn is ON a
decreasing scale. These gains do not
come up to the ones that have been
secured by individuals. 1t may have
been partially in the quality OF the
pigs, as there is a great deal in the
characteristics of the animals. We
know farmers who have Ows and
boars that can scarcely feed little
enough to keep them from getting too
fat. They have such a propensity Of
assimilation which is out of all pro-
portion compared with Others.-Mid-
land Farmer.

BARLEY as Food for Stock.

Barley is not extensively grown, yet
It is q superior stock food and will
grow on soils that will not produce
wheat. In England hogs are fattened
on barley, andthe meat contains more
lean than that produced from corn.
I~n-feeding pigs as a test. barley gave
better results than corn, a pound OF
growth being secured from three and a
half pounds Of barley, at a .eostpftWs
n per pound. which was better
than from any other food. Pigs. how
ever, grow more rapidly than adult
hogs. GROUND grains proved superior
to the ungtAand. In steer feeding both
corn and wheat surpassed barley, and
WITH lambs the results were about the
same with corn, wheat and barley.
Corn and barley mixed gave better re-
suits than either alone in some cases.
These tests should make barley a fav-
orite where it is not now grown at al

A SUGGESTION FROM OHIO.
Storing Straw from Machine Under
Cover Is a Practice That Seems
to Pay Quite Well.

Having experienced some Of the con-
veniences and inconvenience of stOr-
ing straw both in open yards and I'M
der cover possibly the experience may
be Of benefit to others. Needing addi-
tiOnal stabling for cattle, l thought it
would be cheaper and more convenient
to construct the straw NOV in connec-
ton with cattle barn. The barn prop
er is 62 feet long with threshing floor
and feed running crOSs-wise.
The diagram herewith will give a fair
ly clear idea of the location of the adj
dition containing the cattle below and
the straw above. Experience thus far
shows that | could not locate it more
satisfactorily. The straw is thrown
down into the feed rOOm in the barn
very convenient to cattle, horses or
sheep. 1t is then thrown into the diff
ferent managers where the stock may
eat what they desire, and what they
leave is used for bedding. We all
know the inconvenience of bringing
straw from a stack in the yard when
frozen, and on windy days, especially in
March or April, when We desire dry

HOW TO MAKE SHEEP PAY.

The ewes should be two years old be-
fore bred.
Lambs sell more per pound and cost
less to produce than mutton.
Sheep have excellent digestion and
hence they utilize food to the fullest de-
gree.
If sheep are not kept constantly in
good condition the quality of the wool
is affected.
Frequent changes of pasture makes
fat sheep. 1t will not pay to rear a poor
sheep for market.
Sheep should always be fat when mar
keted. Fat is produced cheaper than
lean, hence there is more profit.
There are very few animals that are as
dainty and choice about their food as
sheep.
Under present conditions of sheep
raising the farmer cannot afford to keep
sheep for any one object.
If a sheep is not making a good growth,
raising a lamb Or two into market condi-
ion, it is not profitable to the owner.
With sheep a change of pasture will be
found an advantage when the focks can
be put in a better place.
When a man has improved his flock.
until he can sell his poorest sheep at re-
munerative prices, he can then afford the
best.
