EXPERT ADVICE IN REGARD TO
MAKING A GOOD
STATE. !,
PAYS LARGE PROFITS
BEGINNERS SHOULD GO SLOWLY
UNTIL THEY GAIN
EXPERIENCE.

By H. NJ. Cottrell. Superintendent Of
Farmers Institutes.
For capital, labor and time required
there Is no business of any kind In
Colorado that is paying larger profits
Aan raising hogs khere the grower is
an expert. As high as 800 per cent.
net profit has been made in six months
under ordinary farm conditions.
have induced many farmers and busi-
ness men who have had no experience
with hogs to so into the business.
Many OF these beginners with no
knowledge have started on a large
scale and have lost money. Handling
hogs profitably requires skill and ex-
perience and the beginner should
start slowly and not get these at too
great a cost.
Select any one Of the four breeds
you like China. Berk-
shire, Duroc-Jersey or Tamworth.
Get good judge Of hogs to select
for you from one to five sows, not
more. Select good individuals that
come from prolific strains on both
sides.
With careful management from -
to 20 pigs should be marketed each
year from prolific, mature sow.
The beginner should study his hogs
closely. becoming acquainted Intimate
ly with their habits. their likes and
dislikes, learning what they need and
what is bad for them.
Cheapness in production is the first
point to be mastered by the beginner.
In his breeding he should work for
large filters. early maturity and quail
ity.
Starting with one SOW 1t will pay to
buy n mature one that has shown that
she will produce good pigs and raise
eight to ten ut litter. She should
have two filters year.
Cheap shelter can be made with
straw, sod or boards. The beginner
can watch his small lot OF hogs care.
fully and learn how to make them
grow rapidly at least expense.
II any trouble occurs II can usually
be seen In a small lot OF pigs before
It IL past curbing. When there is a
loss II can not be heavy and the grower
gets his experience cheaply.
The second year three or four Of
tho best SOW pigs should be saved
with their dam.
The third year the grower should
have learned enough about growing
hogs to be able to handle ten sows and
their produce and after that he should
know enough to slowly increase his
hog herd to the limit OF his farm.
Cheap shelter and forces should be
used until the profits from the hogs
will pay for better ones. No large
building should be erected until hogs
have been grown several years on the
farm and the breeder IL sure of what
he wants and where he needs to 10.

WORKS DESTROYED.

NEW YORK. April l5.-Fire broke

Standard OH Co, feminist. and West
ave-. Long Island city. destroyed that
building. spread 10 a dozen tanks
across the way and then leaped on
ward to the James c. Newcomb Paint
works. partly destroying that before
II was got under control.
Four alarms were turned in before
there were enough fremen and ap-
paratus TO fight the great blaze. The
whole water front OF Long Island city
was mass Of black smoke. For u
time 1t looked as II great part OF the
Standard OIL works around Tenth-st.
was doomed. But the fire-hghters
checked the spread or the flames In
the tanks.
The firemen did their best to keep
the flames from spreading across the
street 10 the tanks. which, however,
soon caught fire.
The flames ran down 10 the river
front and the fire boats Hewitt and
Body turned their streams on them.
The firemen then had 10 hgnt between
two lines OF flames. They surround
ed the tanks and hemmed In the
blaze, finally getting II under control
in the tanks and putting II out.
In the midst OF the fight against
the fire in the tanks. the canning
building collapsed. Walls and roof
went together with terrific crash.
sending clouds of sparks TO the south
ward.
There are no other buildings be
sides the paint works in the block,
so there was no danger OF the fre
spreading from there. The firemen
after tackling the oil tanks, attacked
the paint works. but II was desper-
ate battle because of SO much infiam-
able material in the works.
The fire destroyed $350.000 worth of
property. The Standard Oil Co. was
compelled to drain four acres OF tanks
containing oil into larger tanks at
safe distance. The blaze - the paint
works looked as IL IT would burn until
night.
