Selecting the
Brood Sows

From past experience know that Il
is easy to put Off the selection Of brood
sows too long, says an Ohio grower In
National St0ckman. This selection IL

a better chance TO make the greater
growth before the usual breeding age
OF eight months.
regard II as a waste of time to hold
young SOW for breeding till later than
eight months old.
Before commencing to feed new corn
to futtcn the spring narrowing for mar.
kct the sows that are to be put In the
breeding herd should be selected and
taken out. 1t Is easy to get them fatter
on new corn In n short time than they
should be when bred. If very fat when
bred, they are apt to produce small
litter in number and unsatisfactory In
quality, and after this start the owner
feels uncertain ~ to what they will do
in the future.
II young SOW produces large lit.
ter mt first narrowing the owner has
much confidence I'm her as to her fu.

do all in our power to care for and
treat the SOW in way to give her an
opportunity to establish this confidence
at the beginning of her career.
On good pasture with light grain
feeding she will properly develop her
reproductive organs and grow a strong
frame ut the same time and be in the
best possible shape to breed when cool
weather comes on. But allow little

intended, if not altogether ruined.
Size of sows.
Careful selection of brood sows has
been the foundation OF most OF our
success. We gathered lot OF brood
sows that were prolific, good mothers
and feeders and uniform in size and
form. As to size, the writer has but
little sympathy with the advocates OF
medium size. The tendency Is ever
downward at best II one has large
and roomy SOW and otherwise well pro-
portloned let not an inch I'm the length
of her nose or the droop or length of

Looking Backward.

Before the new year is ushered
in let us take a look at what has
been accomplished during 1904.
No need considering our failures
and short comings. We are all
human and humanity is imper-
feet. There is scarce q man who
will not acknowledge having made
mistakes. Those who do are
either saints or fools, and two fig
ures will more than enumerate
the number Of saints for the
twentieth century.
The world has made progress
despite the carnage and strife
which has taken place during
1904. Science has added many
things Diplomacy has made
"the day when peace shall reign"
few steps nearer. Politics has
given us new men and new sub
jects for thought. Religion has
added to the worlds progress in
several matters of world promi-
nense. The world grows better
As goes the world in this wise,
so goes the great republic-the
nation to which many eyes look
for examples of peace and pro-
gress, the United States of Ameri-
ca. A quadrennial election has
been held, the public servants
chosen and all is we'll for years to
come. Many questions and meas
ures of national note have been
wisely solved and promulgated
There have been draw backs,-
there always are, but the nation
grows better, wiser and more
powerful. The year 1904 has
been good to Uncle Sam.
And Texas. The great Lone
Star State with it's untold advan-
tages and undreamt-of possibili-
ties has forged yet further onward
and upward during 1904. Presi-
dent Ripley of the Santa Fe says:
