Worms in Hogs.

Hogs affected with worms in the in
testines run down in condition, be-
come very thin and lank, back is
arched, eyes dull, refuse feed, walk
stiffly, and appear lifeless. The
worms may be very numerous, in bad
cases completely filling the intestines.
The pigs die if not treated. To secure
the best results, affected hogs should
receive individual treatment. TWEEN
ty-four hours before administering
treatment very little feed should be
given them. Then give the following
medicine, as a drench, to each one
UNDERGROUND hog; larger or smaller
hogs should receive dose in proper
ton: Oil of turpentine, four drains;
liquor ferri dialysatus, one-half dram;
raw linseed oil, six ounces. If neces-
sary, repeat the dose in four days.
After worms have been removed, give
a tonic to put the pigs in condition.
After a lamb is a few weeks old he
can get along pretty well, but previous
to that time the f1ockmaster should
see that he gets the proper nourish-
ment and is protected from storms.

We have seen some of the very best

Growing Hogs Without Corn.

1t seems most unfortunate that SO
many farmers are still under the i'm
preston that hogs cannot be fattened
successfully without corn. In Ontario
very little corn is fed to hogs, and
yet there they are growing some OF
the best pork that the world produces.
Excellent pork can be made from
ground wheat, ground oats and barley,
mixed, or oats and rye. Peas are
grown quite extensively in Washing
ton. and where land Is cheap there Is
perhaps no better way of finishing
hogs than by turning them into a
field of peas and letting them harvest
the crop. Let not the farmers who
