Extra care is needed at the time the
pigs are weaned Before taking away
from the mother they should be taught
to eat variety OF feeds and be sup
piled with them daily, so that their
digestive organs will be in position
to utilize feeds Independent of the
SOW. Where skim milk is to be had
this should be fed three or four weeks
before weaving, and for that length of
time after weaving. In the absence
of milk, warm Stops of wheat mid
dlings will make fair substitute. At
all seasons give the young weaned
pigs plenty Of green stuff and char.
coal. In winter and all inclement
weather the young weaned pigs must
not only have good shelter from rain
and snow, but also the very cleanest
and dryest of bedding and an abund-
