Feeding Runt Pigs Pays.

1t is almost invariably the case when
a person breeds a number of sows
that he obtains a few runt pigs in the
lot. What to do with these runts is
sometimes q question q little difficult
to solve Some runts are so poor that
it would be better to kill them while
still small than to try to raise them;
in fact, some men do, and think it
the most profitable thing that can be
done. There is a difference in runts,
however. and oftentimes it pays to
take good care Of them, feed them n
little better than the average and give
them special attention. Whenever a
man wishes to raise runtS he ought
by all means to separate them from
his good pigs, and feed them in
lot by themselves, if this can possibly
be done. The Kansas Station has re-
Gently made some experiments along
this line of feeding runts, and in that
instance the feeding proved to be very
profitable. -Four runts We're fed grain
for period of 21S days; during the
feeding period they were allowed the
run of a rape pasture. The grain mix
ture was as follows: Corn, 80 pounds;
kaffir corn, so pounds; shorts, 30
pounds; dried blood, 20 pounds, and
soy beans, 80 pounds. During the en-
tire period the pigs averaged daily
gain of "a pound per head. They sold
at 1925 per hundred weight, and the
cost Of each 100 pounds of gain was
50 Ga for the grain consumed. Even
If the pigs had only brought IS per
hundred weight, there would still have
been handsome profit from the feed

Grit for Young Chicks.

There is 10 question as to the time
the chicks should be given grit, for it
ought to be where they can get at it
the minute they begin to eat. While
almost any material which will fur
nish sharp bits will do for grit, we
consider, after years of experimenting,
that ground phosphate rock and glass
sand supplies just the sort of grit
best suited to chicks. Our plan is to
make the floor of this combination ma
terial having 1t an inch or more deep
and changing it once week. Some
times the small grain is sprinkled
through this floor material and the
chicks have fine time scratching.
AS the chicks get older SO that the
sand is likely to be fouled too greatly,
the combination material is placed in
a regulation grit box where the chicks
will be tempted to use it. Literally
supplied with grit the chicks take on
q stronger growth than when it Is

Salt for Blackknot.

One of the strange prevemtives is
to SOW salt on the ground under a
plum tree to keep it from having
blackknOt. What earthly good it can
do is not evident. The knot is cause+I
by a fungus. Spores are thrown off
from a knot and are carried through
the air. One of the many hundreds
may find Judgment in a crevice in the
bark of a plum tree and begin to
grow. The others perish. The disease
will spread in the bark and in course
of time will infect the whole top if
left alone. OF what use is the salt?
1t might kill the germs that come in
contact with it, but its value for that
purpose on the ground is not worth
considering. This is one of the strange
remedies which by some unaccount-
able means got a reputation for a
value they do not possess.

Profits of Nine Dairy Herds.

An investigation Of nine dairy farms
supplying a creamery in Western New
York produced interesting figures, as
reported at recent meeting of the
State Dairy Association. Most of the
COWS were grade Durham. The first man
kept ten COWS which netted a profit OF
$13.67 each; the second fifteen cows
thirteen cows at a profit of $7.61; the
fourth fifteen cows at profit Of $4.6O
each; the fifth nine COWS at profit of
$1.71 each. The sixth kept eight cows, and
the figures showed loss per cow Of
10 cents; the seventh loss Of $4.37
per cow; the eighth $5.44 per cow and
the ninth, who kept twenty cows,
actually lost $4,S2 per COW; los
ing more per cow than the first
ten on the list gained from each
of his cattle. No account was made
of skimmiIk or labor, the profit being
based on actual market value of feed
and the amount received from the
creamery for butter shipments. The
only reason some of these farmers
were able to keep in business was be-
cause they produced their own feed
instead of buying it in the market,
and had the manure as an extra profit.
Part Of the trouble was owing to
poor COWS Kept, and part, no doubt, be-
cause the COWS werelnot of one of the
special breeds. Massachusetts Plough

Hogs that Cannot Walk.

Men that were raised on New Eng
land farms have memories of great fat
hogs that for months before slaughter
were unable to stand ON their hind
legs. The writer has seen hogs that
weighed almost 600 pounds that before
slaughter had to move around on their
launches as on pivot, says an East
ern hog man In an exchange. They
ate and slept in the same place, turn
ing one way to eat and the other to-
sleep. Their owners thought it moth
ing unusual, they only said: The hog,
has become so fat he can't stand up"
Yet with more light on the situation
we know that it was not a case of fat
ness only, but a case OF the constant
feeding of corn and slop, out of which
bone or muscle that would sustain his
weight. In those days the food Of
such hogs was corn as largely as 1t is
now. Had those animals received
ration composed of ground oats, skim
milk and such nitrogen-supplying
foods they would have had a bone
and-muscle that would have carried
about any weight. The same results
come from the same causes now, but it
is not so apparent, as the hogs are
marketed at half the weight they were
in the days mentioned. No man should
feed corn diet exclusively to his
hogs

Professor Woodrow Wilson, OF
Princeton University, lectured in New
York the other day on "The Unlver-
sity and the Nation" President VIII
son made some remarks that throw
light on modern college education. He
said: "You don't send boy to coliege
to find an education-it's to find HIM
self. to orient himself, to find his rela-
ton to the life that is around, and to
become of value to the nation. The
classroom is not vital, because one
man dominates-one mind is master.
I believe that the only way to learn
is by trying your mind alongside OF
some other mind and drawing conolu-
sions. The thing is to get in the class
room the point of view. Nothing gives
a youngster catholic-ty of view Like
rubbing against the men of various
parts of his own country.
