and quarters Is beneficial to pigs at
any time. If the pig refuses to eat
altogether he should be put in a clean
house or pig hospital, as some call it,
n offered some sweet milk. If he
does not take 1t catch him and pour
down a small quantity of milk fresh
from the cow. Usually he will eat a
mush made from middlings and sweet
milk to which a little salt has been
added. 1t is stated that So per cent
OF the diseases Of humanity can be

so / a%pprehend the same is true of
hogs. 1t should be considered that
rapid growing pigs sometimes have
disorders resembling those In children,
but which disappear at maturity. For
such troubles we administer a little
~turpentine, from four to ten drops,
mixed with a spoonful or two of fresh
milk. Now / do not know In what
esteem turpentine Is held by the pro-
f~ession, but / know that 1t Is used by
several successful swinemen, and | am
confident that we have saved dozens
Of pigs by its use. If a pig refuses to
eat for t~wenty-four hours he Is given a
little ~turpentine once or twice a day.
At the same time we sprinkle a little
turpentine OF the grain given to the
rest Of the hogs for the sake of proven
ton.
They seem to come to all hogs, and
we should be ready to combat them.
They are lice and worms. The man

er you have a dipping plant or not
there should be some provision for ap-
plying a disinfectant by spraying or
sprinkling. We use a cheap quality of
kerosene and apply very lightly, but
often. Other liquids may be better,
but the kerosene is useful for many
things, and 1t is always ready. We
have a five gallon can for oil for the
stock and poultry. 1t Is good to apply
a few drops to the feed, which serves
a purpose similar to that of the exter-
nal application. This seems to be an
effective remedy for the coughs com
mon among hogs. For worms we give
turpentine mixed with the feed. The
proper use of these liquids. writes

Many breeders of swine are having
