Such is the comment of the secretary

state by its own revised drainage laws.

union" observes this member of the
presidents cabinet.

Hogs and Alfalfa.

What farmers need is cheaper pro-
duction of hogs than wholly grain
grown animals. One mechanic in the
employ of the Republic Steel company
is outstanding his surplus earnings to
| buy a farm in Texas and make for
tune in raising alfalfa and hogs. With
corn at SO cents per bushel and hogs
selling at 1915 to 1925 per 100 pounds,
live weight, can any farmer make a
profit in feeding his corn to hogs?
What is needed in the profitable pro-
duction of hogs is a combination of
forage and grain that will mature the
animals without the consumption of
so great an amount of high priced
corn.
In BODYBUILDING and muscle forming
properties alfalfa leads other grasses
and is particularly adapted to the hog
industry. Alfalfa is one of the earliest
egumes to devlop for pasture or soil
ing and its nutritious properties par
ticularly adapt it as a forage for young
and growing animals. 1t is in a class
by itself in being universally adapted
to animal husbandry. 1t affords early
forage and lasts the longest for fall
pasture.
1t is good quality of land that will
produce fifty bushels of corn per
acre, and at so cents per bushel So
pounds should make a gain in live
weight of one pound to make it profit
able to feed for market to hogs. 1t is
estimated that an acre of average al
falfa. will carry ten pigs and produce
an average increase of 100 pounds in
weight in five months. The production
of 1000 pounds gain in hogs per acre
OF alfalfa per season. without planting
cultivating and harvesting the same
acre devoted to corn. looks as If al
falfa has the advantage in the cheap
production of hogs.
There is urgent need for the agricul-
tural experiment stations to work out
solutions of the advantage Of combin-
ing pasturing pigs on alfalfa, the num-
Der an acre will carry and the average
gain that pigs will make in five months
on this popular forage. Farmers are
anxious to know the best economies in
animal husbandry and would like to
learn how ia produce more economi-
cally the 56.0s4.O00 hogs that are annu-
ally marketed in this country. 1t is
believed that hogs raised on pasture
and grain will be less afflicted with
disease and will mature at less ex-
pense than swine raised on grain alone.
