' SHAPED, LOG AND SHALLOW TRoUdHs.

V SHAPED, LOG AND SHALLOW TRoUGHs.
Louis advises the use of low, wide,
shallow trough. Troughs should not be
so long that they cannot be handled by
one man, and they should be so strong
that they will not readily be broken to
pieces by the pigs.
A very convenient arrangement of
the feeding troughs shown in the
sketch of a trough used in the hog
house at the Maryland Agricultural
college. The troughs extend across the
front of the pen and are built solidly,
so that they viii not be displaced The
front of the pen is hung on hinges, and
attached to it is a strong iron rod
which fits into holes in the edges Of
the trough and holds the pen front
firmly. When feeding the pen front is
swur back and the rod inserted in the
edge the trough The pigs cannot
then get to the feed until the front is
lowered. The plan permits feeding
without being disturbed by the eager
ness of the animals, and the feed is
evenly distributed.
Wooden troughs are Objectionable in
some respects. They are not very cas-
lily kept clean and are not durable
Iron troughs are used to a considerable
extent and have much to commend
them. They are more sanitary than
wooden ones and with proper care will
last indefinitely.
AS soon as it is determined what pigs
are to be fed for market their fattening
should be started without delay. tx
periments have repeatedly proved that
young animals always fatten more eco
nomically than old ones, and therefore
any delay in finishing is accompanied
with loss. In rare instances it may
pay to keep a pig over winter as a
store hog, but generally lie loses the
flesh he accumulated while sucking
his dam, and this cannot be replaced
except at increased expense.
Corn will now cone into the ration
and should be supplemented by all the
variety of feed at the feeders COM
mand to keep the appetite keen and
the digestive system in the best condi-
ton. This variety Should consist Of
mill feeds, dairy byproducts and sue
culent feeds and, according to some au-
thorities, pasture. If skim milk, whey
and buttermilk are at command they
can be combined to very good adyan-

[Open to allow nlling or trodgn-l

q proportion of about two pounds Of
milk to one of grain at weaving time
and reducing the quantity of milk I'M
til the pigs are finished on grain alone
A pig gives best returns from dairy
uyI roducts while young. The fatten-
ing pigs should gain from one pound to
o"A and a half pounds daily and should
v- h between 250 and 300 pounds at
nin or ten months of age. Gains
made after this weight are nearly
twice as expensive as those made when
weighing from 80 to 100 pounds, and a
well bred pig finished at a weight Of
about 250 pounds will very nearly fill
the market requirements and bring a
satisfactory price.
