HOG HINTS.

Too much corn is still being fed to
growing pigs.
Worms are frequent cause of lack of
thrift in hogs.
Growing pigs should have a we'll
mixed diet to give good frame.
The hog is not dirty animal when
not forced to have dirty quarters.
Do not permit lice to live on the
hogs. They will interfere greatly with
the well-being of the animals.
Many owners of hogs have never
awakened to the necessity for keep
ing the hog quarters absolutely clean.
1t is not necessary to husk corn for
pigs. They do it just as well, and
usually little better, on snapped
corn.
