| full of wheat bran, stirred in with
the hand, just when cool enough to
do this. Pens should face the south
with windows that can be opened
to admit the sun to beam right
down on tn brood. He prefers
the small pens and is using them in
preference to the large ones. Hogs
should have earth floors and have
access to the earth and given plenty
of room for exercise. Should
handle the SOW so as to have her
very gentle and familiar with yon.
By all means do not swear at the
hogs, as they seem to understand
what you are saying, by instinct
and will often rush to the other
side of the pen and remain there.
Always select your breeders from
prolific family, as like beget like;
and select SOW with at least twelve
udders. The old mode of weaving
was to enclose the little pigs in a
tight pen away from the mother,
after they had partially learned to
eat, and they would walk about
the pen, almost constantly for three
or four days, including the nights,
eating but little; as they were dis
satisfied all this time, were losing
flesh and being more or less stunt
ed, did not regain what they had
lost for weeks or even months. The
mother on the other hand was being
fed as usual and continued to secrete
milk, the udders became very full,
infamed and very painful, causing
ner great amount of suffering as
well as worry for the pigs. Mr..
Lewelling has adopted this plan,
have a pen as before where the
little fellows can readily pass in
and out, eat by themselves, then
few days before weaving time put
the mother in an enclosure, and
give her less to eat, and the food
not a very great milk producer: as
the pigs get less from the mother
give them more feed in their pen;
they frequently passing back and
forth; continue this for several
days, lessening the feed to the SOW;
in few days she is, in manner,
dry and will drop on her abdomen
when the pigs attempt to get
sustenance from her. In this way
neither seem to know what has
happened and neither have any bad
effect. In a few days all can run
together again. This was a very
fine lecture

AFTERNOON SESSION.


Mr.. Wagenen gave brief talk
on the 'sDairy Subject" as add
tional to what he had previously
stated. Said, in part, it was very
important to the cows, building,
utensils and vessels be strictly
clean, not by scrubbing with cold
water until bright, should use boil
ing water or live steam to kill the
germs or microbes. He predicted
that the time is not far distant, il
not already at hand, when we
should be shipping our milk to the
cities instead of making butter and
leave the production of butter to
those at a remote distance. He re-
cited the condition necessary in
making first class butter.
He was followed by practical
talk on Poultry by Mr.. Lewelling,
the great essentials being plenty
of dry dust for dust baths to kill
lice, etc., sand for grit, the best OF
all, and use salt water for spraying
houses, perches, etc., as being the
very best.
In conclusion Mr.. Wagenen gave
a most soul stirring and eulogistic
description of farm life and the
farmer boys and girls; how they
should be educated to become more
useful and better satisfied with the
greatest, noblest, most healthful and
purest calling of man-agriculture,
the foundation and structure upon
which everything else is builded.
This Institute was, by far, the
most interesting and instructive OF
any that have been held at Rising

at the afternoon sessions, who
were sorry they, too soon, came to
an end.
INSTITUTE NOTES.
A good session of the Farmers

brought their dinners and had a
table set in a room adjoining the
Hall when the meetings were held.

The "Corn contests in Nebraska
have excited so much popular
interest and the value of seed from
