The Pig with N Sore Mouth.

A very troublesome thing the busy
Farmer has to contend with is sore
mouth In little pigs. The only way TO
prevent this is to take out their little
tusks when they are about one day
old. 1t is fighting for the teat that
causes this and is very much worse In
wet weather than in dry on account
OF the mud that forms sore. followed
by inflammation and swelling. A very
good remedy is TO wash off with car
bolic acid and warm water; use ouly
very little carbolic acid.

Pigs For Profit.

A writer in the Tribune Farmer
thinks 1t waste of feed to keep pigs
beyond about seven months OF age.
when they should weigh 200 or more
pounds. 1t sounds too much like old
times to feed pigs to fourteen or fif-
teen months old he says. After 200
pounds weight, with the modern pig.
the expense to make pound Of pork
gradually gets too great TO give n de-
Eirable profit TO the feeder. The great
est profit ends with 175 to 200 pounds
weight as they should be grown on
the farm.
