The first feature of hog raising that

Of the sows. No other meat producing

BILE Of producing 80 large a number OF
young in a year The size Of litters
varies with breeds and with location
and feed.
One OF the effects of high corn feed
Ing on breeding stock Is the lesSening
Of prepotency and f%ecundity. When the
conditions OF forage furnish a more or
less varied diet and consequently a
better balanced ration. high fecundity
may be expected. Free access to pas
ture will therefore always be a good
practice with breeding sows. In addi-
ton to this, the number Of hogs may
almost be doubled by breeding the
sows so as to produce two lttters a
year. The practice demands considera-
bly, more care or the part Of the breeder
than when breeding but one a year,

THE A r

From The Farmer and Breeder.
Few things have added more Of its
usefulness to the farm home than the
telephone. Both for business and sdcial
arrangements 1t Is most wonderfully
convenient. The delivery OF kilograms
and other messages by its use saves
both lime and expense. The weather
report is given in many OF tina farm
homes and the accuracy with which
storms are foretold is such that farm
operations and pleasure trips may be
arranged In accordance Herewith, at
least by those who do not desire to get
wet. 1t seldom ain when the report
has been FOX. clear weather.
Market reports are given in a similar
manner and the farmer Is so we'll post
ed h a the dealer has no chance to
take advantage of him even IL he so
desired. 1t Is said that more than half
OF the farmers Of Iowa get the weather
and market reports daily, and the num-
Der Is increasing very rapidly each
year Other states are not far behind.
Social duties are arranged by tele-
phone and neighbors get better ac-
quainted by reaso thereof. The gath
ering of help in %threshing time will pay
more than a months rent OF the tele-
phone and in case Of fire, sickness, or
other trouble ones neiEhbors can be
called In short time. Farmers who de-
sire car seek customers for the smaller
eggs. butter, vegetables or
berries. among their town friends by
telephone and many are doing consider
able business in this line. With the

ing parcels post the farm will be even

The lawyer or the doctor Is supposed
to be be we'll read in the literature of
his profession. There Is no reason why
the farmer should not seek to be as
we'll read along the line OF his work.
His reading possibilities are o very
large. This Is at It should be. No, 9TH
er occupation brings one in closer
touch with so many Of the ~profoundest
facts OF life. No man can hope to
apprehend these. or to be successful
even in one branch OF agriculture.
without seeking to incorporate into his
own the results of the work OF others
gays the American Agriculturist.
Progress in agriculture is not so
much the result Of what a few men Of
genius ave done as 1t Is the result OF
the patient work Of thousands Of toll
ers. who have given to 1t the skill Of
their hands and the best thoughts Of
their minds. The farmer Of today can
be all that these thousands OF fellow
workers have helped to make him. But
1t Ia only through the reading n the
study OF the literature OF his occupa-
ton that he can realize these posi-
bilities.
But do we go far enough when we
advise farmers to read simply as farm

farmer? Certain 1t Is hat the man Is
always more than his work. No man
should make farming the end Of life.
but should rather minister to life. Tha
growing OF the largest crops and the
breeding of the best animals Is not so
important as the development OF, him
self in character and manhood. Not all
OF a farmers reading should be OF
en- agricultural nature. but some OF 1t
should be of such a kind as to de-
velop himself as a man, to increase his
general knowledge, to broaden his
views Of life n to give him wider
sympathies.
He Was- born q man and died a gro
the, kind might be said OF some farm
ers. The farmer who gives some at
tention to his own mental improvement
will be more rather than less successful
in his work. Farming Is a matter OF
brain as we'll as OF the hand. The
more he trains his mind to think the
better he will be able to work out 70,
i, himself some Of the problems OF pres
ent day agriculture. No one can learr
to think except by thinking. And ir
order to think one must furnish his
mind with the materials OF thought
This will be gathered by reading ant

So In thinking over the thoughts o!
others. and making them his own. will
one learn to think.
More han this. the farmer Is no
only an individual. who Is to develop

but he Ia, also a very important factor
In our economic and social life. Al
such he cannot dodge the responsible.
