The variety of corn usually grown in
n locality is the proper kind TO grow
for hogSing of purposes. since It is
probably the best adapted to the local
ity and gives the largest yield. How
ever. getting an early start In the fat
tening process is very advantageous.
and II sometimes happens when pas
ture supplies are short or the early
sale of hogs is desirable. that such
variety does not mature early enough.
To be prepared for such conditions. 1t
Is well to grow q sufficient amount OF
sweet corn or early maturing flint corn
to tide over until the field corn is
ready for use. No more than is suf-
ficient for early fall feeding should be
grown since It costs just as much to
grow these varieties as II does the
dent and they yield much less. Flint
corn is preferable to sweet corn for
hogs, and field feeding OF flint corn
gives better results than where
husked and fed after the corn has
hardened.
One of the great objections In grow
ing flint and other early varieties OF
corn has been the difficulty of harvest
ing them. Feeding them of with live
stock eliminates this objection. and II
would seem that they might be grown
and utilized more extensively.

to expect to start with pigs that weigh

the field. hogs do not come up and
drink in droves as they do in the
yards; therefore. 1t is necessary to
keep water before them continually.
When fields adjacent to the farmstead
are used. hogs can be brought up to
the yards and watered or fed slop as
usual: where fields remote from the
farmstead are used. the simplest way
is to fill several barrels or casks with
stone boat or other conveyance to the
field. Enough can thus be taken out
at a time to last for two or three days.
There are no definite data at hand to
determine Just how large an area 1t is
advisable to allow hogs at one time In
feeding of corn. Results at the Min
nesota station show that where 1t took
the hogs 20 days to clean up field

to be settled largely by circumstances
such as the price OF labor. the shape
