It Pays Well to Raise Hogs.

Frank Thorn. of MINNEAPOLIS.
kas., calls attention to the fact
that gradually farmers are cutting
down on cattle feeding in Ottawa
county. Mr.. Thorn thinks the
reason for this change is not hard
to find. at is the general tend
ency to higher priced feeds that
is forcing farmers to dispose of
their farm products in a little diff
ferent way" he said. "When
corn reached soc and zoe bushcI,
land when alfalfa got up to IS a
ton, farmers had to begin figuring
the matter over a little. OF course
fed cattle are selling very high.
but this change to much higher
prices requires much more money
to get in than when everything
was cheap. As the land advanced
in prices fewer cattle were RAISED.
and then when they quit raisiua
them and had TO como TO the open
market for feeders the cost wa
added ON. Then after paying ~
higher price for feeding steers,
and feeding higher priced feeds,
the feeder found that by the time
he got well started to feeding he
had a good deal of money invest
ed, And then there was that
great anxiety about when 10
market and as to whether the
steers would pay out, and all that
So We find that fewer cattle are
being fed. Farmers are handling
some cattle, in a way, hut in diff.
ferent way than when everybody
everybody fed, They take them
out aud run them ON good grass
a few weeks, and perhaps feed
them for very short time, ana
bring them back, but not in the
bold way by making the long feed,
But hog raising in that country
pays we'll The hogs can be rails
ed and carried along till they arr
two-thirds grown on alfalfa. Then
by making a short feed, they will
weigh over poo lbs, which is a
handy weight, when they are sold
Hogs produced that way make
their owners money"
