MAKING PRIME PORK.
Essentially from Those in Vogue
Few Years Ago.

The value of corn for pork produc-
ton was long since recognized; but
changes in economic conditions have
increased the price OF corn during the
past few years and made it necessary
for the farmer TO consider what grain
crops he can grow or feed as sub
stitute for a portion Of the corn SO as
to cheaper the cost OF production and
at the same time improve the quality
of the pork, writes John X. Fain, Of
the Tennessee experiment citation. The
cheapness of corn in the past has in one
sense been a detriment to the progress Of
swine husbandry; it has encouraged a
too general use OF this cereal for the de-
velopment of the choicest quality of
breeding animals. When corn was
very cheap it was a common practice
to shut the hogs UP in a filthy pen
and feed them an unlimited quantity
without regard to cost This made
fat hogs of what is generally known
as the lard type" Close confinement
and heavy feeding impaired the SIAM
ina and yigor Of the animals and I'M
doubtedly resulted in undermining the
constitution of the brood SOW, and this
with the unsanitary quarters caused the
destruction Of large numbers Of hogs
by the dreaded cholera.
Hog breeders now realize that an
open range with grass and forage
crops is a desideratum OF the greatest
importance to them Under such con-
di'ions a superior quality of pork is
obtained with a better admiXture of
fat and lean. AS can be easily under
stood from these facts and many 9TH
ers which might be adduced, condi-
tons with regard to swine feeding have
materially changed Hence it becomes
necessary to determine what grains may
be substituted to advantage for a part of
the corn formerly fed and to utilize fully
such by-products of the farm as Stops
and skim milk, which were frequently
allowed to so to waste, but which are
now known to have a high feeding
value.

noon to five y. m"
1t Is not uncommon occurrence to
como on deer asleep; a stalker In the
Black mount had the rare experience OF
coming upon a parcel of seven stays. all
sound asleep. A herd was seen to move
In Glenfeshie, but one stag remained be-
hind. lying motlonless. On careful APP
proach he was found to be asleep. Per
hays, however, the oldest occurrence of
this nature happened In Braemore, when
n stalking party on going up TO the
stag which had just been shot, found a
three-y ear-old close to It fast asleep. In
fact, 1t Is by no means rare to get within
a yard or two Of sleeping deer.

THE HOGS IN WINTER.

Usually. a hog with bristles has
coarse and thick skin.
The pig is a clean, healthy animal
when gwen a chance.
With hogs, clean pens and clean beds
will do much to ward of lice and uls-
ease.
The pig pen is always a good place
to dispose Of imperfect and small fruit
and potatoes.
If the piss are closely confined, they
must have variety of food, II they
are to be kept thrifty.
Pigs will stand considerably more
nutritious or rich food, if it is given
often and in small quantities
Young pigs should be taught to eat
as young as possible and be given all
the skim milk they will drink.
The fattening hogs should have all
of the grain they Will eat up clean. But
no more than this should be given.
a cross SOW is a dangerous animal tG
have around, and should be made fat
and shipped at the earliest oppor-
tunity.
A bushel of corn will make more
pounds of increase when fed to a pig
three months old than when fed to an
older one.
In selecting a young animal for
breeding purposes, one with a gentle
and tractable disposition should always
be chosen.
Hogs may be fed out in winter to a
good advantage if there is warm and
dry shelter, and 1t IS kept perfectly
clean. alive Stock Journal.

in the rear end for ventilation, and close
it again in winter.
Make movable floor, to fit inside

floor where you want the house to stand,
then set the house over it. 1t is COM
