FEEDING PLATFORM FOR HOGS.
Aim Should BE to Keep the Animals
40 Clean az Possible.

Where hogs are maintained and fed
out of doors all seasons of the year It
Is not only advantageous but very es-
sential for the promotion of best sani-
tary condition, that some arrangement
be completed whereby the feeding
may be conducted upon clean, whole
some basis. The farmer who feeds
his hogs anywhere there Is dry
place about the hog yard, is likely
sooner or later to notice an unthrifty
appearance among some members OF
his animals. Hogs when maintained
in pen out of doors will not do their
best unless they have some perma-
nent and sanitary feeding place
whereby they can receive their meals
regularly and in an acceptable con-
dition.
We handle all our hogs in yards dur
ing the entire year and find with
proper arrangements we are able to
keep our animals cleaner and health
Ter than under any other system Of
management, says correspondent Of
Prairie Farmer. We find that by pro-
viding proper conveniences for feed
ing we can maintain a larger number
Of hogs upon our farm without loss
or disease.
The diagram herewith shows one Of
sur feeding platforms. This platform

LITTLE HINTS.

The bull can be kept at distance
with staff, and that Is therefore the
safest way to lead him.
Feeding and milking the cows regu-
larly are very important. No work
In the dairy can be more important.
The milk cows mission being to
convert food into milk, not into fat
and beef, 1t goes without saying that
she should not be fat.
The COW must have health, vigor,
constitution and disposition before
she Is MIXED the first time. What she
really is will be determined before she
drops her first calf.
Whether one has herd or only one
COW. he should have something grow
ing during the cool portion of the year
that will furnish succulence. And 1t
will save buying mill feeds.
II the COW Is not healthy-has gar
got or Inflammation Of the udder, or
any other sickness that Is noticeable

to the pigs, II used at all.
Neither sorghum cane nor common
corn that was green when the frost
hit them should be fed to cows and
horses. It Is not certain whether
frosted peavines contain this forage
poison" or not, but 1t would be best to
60 slow in this line.

A Plain, Practical Talk on the Science
Of Feeding.

1T is not what is eaten, but what
is digested, that nourishes," Is an ak
iom Of the medical doctor, and this
applies with equal force to the animals
of the farm, although many breeders
and rearers OF stock display much
greater interest In "what to feed" than
in the question OF "how to feed" One
authority says that 1T Is not SUM-
cient to know that certain substances
possess great nutriment, and that 9TH
are are practically useless, but 1t must
be known what foods are most suited
to the varying conditions of the or
ganism, In what form these should be
administered, and to ascertain how the
best feeding can he obtained In the
most economical manner" The ar
rangement of the digestive apparatus
Of animals has an important bearing
on their system of feeding. and what
is right and proper for one is quite
unsuited to the other.
The small and single stomach Of the
horse, its capacious bowels, and the
absence Of the gall bladder, are In

stomach Of the OK. the small intes-
tines and the presence Of a gall blad.
der, and thus the feeding of cattle and
sheep differs much from the feeding
of pigs from either.
The object of food Is to build up and
repair the tissues and maintain a re-
serve for the body requirements, says
the Montreal Herald, but food as re-
ceived is quite useless for the purpose
Of the body, and before 1t can be uti-
lized 1t must form part of and parcel
Of the animal, either In the solid or
liquid tissues. The digestibility Of a
food is its power of undergoing abb
sorption into the body for the purpose
of nutrition, and In every food given
to animals there Is distinct diges-
ton Of the proteid, fat and carbohy-
drate In 1t. The amount of these
which are absorbed under favorable
conditions is fairly definite, but under
unfavorable conditions, such as the
food being badly cured" or there be-
ing too much carbohydrate present, or
too much or too little Droteid in the
diet, the amount absorbed departs
from the normal, and less is extracted
or less stored up than would have been
the case had conditions been favora-

HARVESTING CORN WITH SWINE,
II Is Economical and Wise Under Ger
tain Conditions.

In these days of scarce and expen-
sive labor, where the harvesting OF
crops can be done by animals, this
method Of handling them should be
given due attention. The practice Of
hogging down corn, as 1t Is called, Is
growing in favor. But the present
practice can possibly be improved
upon. II some short variety Of corn
were grown which produces ears
abundantly, and II crop Of pumpkins
were grown at the same time in the
corn, the combination should be a
good one. The corn being low Of stat
ure would not hinder the growth Of
the pumpkins as tall corn would.
There Is a decided advantage In
grazing or feeding of these two to-
gether, says Orange Judd Farmer.
One advantage is, that the pumpkins
feed we'll along with the corn for
pigs that are being fattened, and espe
cially along with new corn. They ex.
ercise a healthful influence on the
digestion. A second benefit is the In
creased nutriment obtained from an
acre by thus growing the two crops
together, and a third benefit resulting
is the harvesting OF the pumpkins as
well as the corn, without labor.
When growing this crop 1t will pay
well to have the land we'll enriched.
Pumpkins, II they are to grow well,
must have rich soil. The yields are
usually proportionate to the high con-
dition of fertility In the land.

has been In use for over five years
and has repaid for itself many times.
The platform was made by laying
down oak 4x4's and planking over
with pine two-inch stuff Of fair quail,
ity. The trough is V-shape made of
2xS-inch stuff. The platform fronts
up to a fence whereby slanting
board was fitted so that all the feed,
ing is done without interfering with
the hogs while eating. Stats four
inches wide are firmly nailed nine
inches apart to prevent the hogs from
getting into the trough. The trough
is so arranged that with a broom 1t
can be thoroughly cleaned before
each feeding.

The Hog Houss Door.

half-inch iron rod is fastened across
the upper batten with eye bolts. This
gives the door free play to swing in
and out. The ends Of the rods run
into the door-frame on each side. and
to prevent the door from binding an
iron collar is slipped on the rod each
side Of the door. 1t solves the prob
lem Of cold or drafty sleeping quar-
ters, says Montreal Herald. Hogs can
go in or out at will and the door Is al
ways shut after them. II lots Of air
is wanted the door Is easily propped
open.

Warming and Cooking Feeds.

In cold weather the value of warm
food is easily noticed, but the cost is
more than the increased value when
compared with the increase OF the
flow of milk. Silage may be fed warm
without much additional expense, and
prove valuable. Cooking feed for
COWS was strongly recommended 40
years ago, says Farm and Home, but
recent experiments have proved the
fallacy of this doctrine. Cows have
never been bred up to appreciate
warm feeds. Actual experience In
cooking feeds has shown that the I'M
cooked feeds proved to be more d.
gestible, the average in different feeds
giving loss Of six per cent. by cook
ing.

The filthy stable is the breeding
place of unhealthy horses.
Diseased or spoiled meats should
not be fed TO the fowls.
Intensive farming makes extensive
profits.
Hogs need variety In diet to do
their best.
The working hen Is the profitable
hen.
The shiftless poulterer often sells

Use proper bits, and never check
too high. II is cruel.
1t takes good man to drive good

Charcoal ashes and salt should, be
in every pig pen to ward off dis
ease.
Easier to keep the horse up than
to get him up after he is once run
down.
Bright tools and tight fences are
a pretty good index to the farmer
who owns them.
Two good horses that you can de-
pend upon are better than four poor
ones.
Not every man who has a horse
shoe hanging in front of his shop
knows how to shoe horses.
The thrifty yearling colt should
grow hand taller during the win
ter IL fed right.
The think tank is as much need
ed on the farm as the water tank,
and 1t should be kept tapped all the
time.
Executive ability Is as essential to
the success of the successful farmer
as to that of the merchant or manu-
facturer.
The lack of business sense and ex-
ecutive ability is probably the cause
for the large percentage Of failures
among farmers.
Lack of care will wear out the har-
ness faster than actual use. Leather
is long-lived when kept clean and
well oiled.
One of the signs Of thrift and prog
ress Is to be constantly trying to
find easier and better methods Of
doing your work.
The higher the wheels, the easier
the draft, and for this reason there
are those who do not believe In low
wheels.
Plant walnut, butternut and hick-
DRY trees in odd corners of the farm
instead Of those which are useful for
shade only.
Poor shoeing Is responsible for the
large majority of lame horses, and 1t
Is said that more than half of the
horses of the country are thus af--
flicted.
When making butter be careful not
to touch 1t with the hands. They
may be Immediately clean, and still
hurt the texture and flavor. A hard
wood ladle is the thing.
The winters order for nursery
stock for next years planting should
be sent in as early as possible to en-
able your nurserymen to make all
provisions for sending the plants
early.
There are some big poultry farms
throughout the country, but the ag-
gregate Of the poultry business Of the
country is made up of the poultry on
the farms. And it's this poultry that
pays the best generally.
Come, Brother farmer, ginger up.
Lots Of things you don't know about

farm paper, get experiment station

Carelessness often results in the
contracting Of bad habits In horses.
