Hogs in the butter dairy where
there is much skim milk to feed form
ole of the best combinations for
money-making when properly and in
diligently done that the farm can
furnish. The Missouri station in bull
letting ~ reports some very exhaus-
tive experiments in combining skim
milk with other feeds to make
well-balanced ration for fattening
hogs. Briefly stated the search was
for food that would produce the
cheapest, and results favored corn
and SKINNED milk in proportions of
one of corn and three Of milk.
The least profit came from a mix
ture of corn and bran or shipstuff.
The former cost PIT cents to produce
Il pound of pork while the latter 1t
required 800 cents. If you propose
to try feeding skim milk to hogs for
profit then send for this bulletin and
study it carefully and keep it always
with you.
There is, however, a sharp and
earnest warning that should always
go with advice about feeding hogs
about or near a dairy. There is no
mixture on earth like hogs and skim
milk with a little mud to help along
fer raising the vilest semell that can
offend the nostrils. Dead animals
and old manure are not a circum-
stance to 1t. For this reason you mus
locate the hog pens as far as you can
from the dairy house and COW stables
Find some way to transport this skim
milk on wheels. Do not attempt to
run 1t through an underground or
open drain for there will be leakage
enough to form rotten spots along
the drain that in time will foul
the air and destroy your dairy.
II you can have the hog pens con-
nected with a feeding room and
then feed only in metal troughs and
never feed more than the hogs will
eat up clean you may, with great
care, avoid the trouble of this COM
bination, but milk, and especially
cream are very sensitive to foul odors
they must have pure air to make
fine butter.

The bone constitutes large part of
the body of chicken, and thus 1t
is that good breeders of chickens in
many cases use bone meal good deal
In feeding them. ...
One who has a marked success in
this line of work says: Bone meal
is especially desirable for laying hens,
and all breeders who have thoroughly
tested it care well aware of the diff
ference in the yield of eggs from
the fowls that have this mixed with
their food and tose tat do not.
1T is excellent also for grown
chicks, being just what the< need
to build up a good strong frame"
Evidently bone meal is of very decid-
ca value in this employment.
