The Late Fall Pig.

Writers on hog breeding seem to
ne unanimous in their condemnation
Of the late fall pig. One writer says
he makes it a rule to kill all pigs that
are narrowed later than October 1 as
soon as farrowed, and then to breed
the sows for early spring filters. This
may be a good rule for some, but 1t
looks cruel, and with some farmers
at least I think that the October pig
could be made to pay a good profit.
In order that the fall pig may be
avoided, it is necessary for the spring
pigs to come tolerably early. Then
they can be weaned, so as to breed
the soWs for September pigs; when
pigs do happen to come late, however
if they are Of good breeding, they
may be made to pay a fair pront.
The only trouble is that if two filters
are raised from the sow it necessar-
lily makes the spring pigs come late
A neighbor, NJ. J, E. Renick, has
Chester White SOW which narrowed
and saved five pigs about the middle
of last November. They were al
lowed to run after the cattle, Wnlc1
were fed whole corn. When the pigs
were three months old, they Wer
weighed, and the two largest one'
weighed seventy pounds each. Th'
average for the litter of five wa
sixty-fve pounds each. These pig
gathered most of their feed after tn
cattle and were almost pure gain
The SOW is in excellent condition
The only difficulty seems to be tia
she will not farrow pigs again unit
very late in the spring or early L
the summer. This is a considerable
which comes up in such cases, an
the hog raiser must decide Whetne
he can afford to lose a spring lite
in order to save the late fall pigs

Cooked Food.

There is a great waste of time and
labor in cooking food for poultry,
especially when the hens prefer the
food raw. During the winter by way
of variety, cooked food will be OF ad-
vantage, but in summer there are
more grass, seeds and insects than
the hens can consume. The warm
weather decreases the expenses by
lessening the food given at n oarn'
and to cook any portion may result
in waste. Young chicks, however,
may be given asdaily meal OF bread
but if they are large enough to run
N and out Of the coops, they, too
will ind a large share Of their daily
supply.

An experience of twenty years in
rearing and caring for poultry con
firms one in the belief that nine
tenths of all ~so-called diseases origin

In treating sick fowls first cream
them of vermin and then give a good
simple remedy to restore lost yigor.
Tincture of iron in the proportion
of one-fourth ounce to three gallons
of milk is an excellent remedy where
cholera symptoms are shown.
When the case is severe the fowls
should be isolated, and ten drops OF

Value of Skim Milk For Laying Hens'
The Department of Agriculture has

made to determine the value of skim
milk as against water for wetttng a
feed mash.
In the first test, which covered 2
DAYS. % hens fed skim milk LAID
1874 eggs as compared with 996 eggs
laid by the % hens fed mash wet
with water.
In the first period Of the second
test 60 hens fed the skim milk ration
laid $50 eggs in 81 days as compared
with 632 eggs laid by a similar lot
fed no skim milk. In the second per-
iod the rations were reversed. The
chickens fed skim milk laid 122O
eggs in Sc days as compared with
97S in the case of the lot fed no skim
milk. In both experiments more eggs
were produced when skim milk was
substituted for water for moistening
