HINTS FOR LIVESTOCK RAISING

When one has young pigs and breed,
ing stock to care for he must think
further than merely what food will
fatten most.
Feeding without care is useless.
Give the COW sunlight; it has it's place
in the economic production of milk
just as well as good food
A successful dairyman feeds his
cows this excellent balanced ration:
Glover hay aud corn fodder all the
cows will eat up clean, for roughage;
for grains, peas and oats, ground fine
and bran in equal parts by weight,
and feed one pound of grain to three
or four pounds of milk, with 16 pounds
of sugar beets a day.
For generations English farmers
have made extensive use of dwarf Els
sex rape as stock food. This plant
may be described as a rutabaga run
to head. The seed is sown like ruta
baga turnips and cultivated without
thinning. Sow two or three pounds
in drills or four or five broadcast
and plant in early spring. The seed is
not expensive and the crop is easy tc
raise.
If you haven't hog pasture it will
pay to fence off corner of the clover
meadow for them. The hogs will gel
more value for you out of the clover
than it would be worth in the form OF
hay, and save the harvesting of it.
If whole oats are scattered very
thinly on floor and the brood SOW is
allowed to feed on them she will get
enough to keep thrifty, while not get.

too much exercise for the first two
days, rather keeping them quiet in a
lone paddock or small shaded pas
ture.
II the youngster arrives VIXEN
the flies are bad keep mother and foal
in the barn during the day and then
at night send them to the pasture.
BE very careful that all the mares
with foals are congenial, if they run
in the same pasture, for often one of
them will be vicious in disposition and
hurt the foal of another mare
When the colt is a month old use
the mother in the lightest work
around the farm and let the colt stray
along at her side.

Rye or Corn for Swine?

What number of pounds bushel
Of corn or rye will put on a hog in
good growing condition, is one Of the
very many questions our experiment
stations have endeavored to answer
by a series of scientific tests.
These experiments have shown that
the average weight gained by hogs
under good conditions is about 12
pounds to the bushel of corn.
This, of course, varies with differ
ent conditions of feeding, etc. Rye is
a little less valuable per pound, be-
ing about the same as barley, and
producing on the average about ten
pounds.
Ii is not usually considered safe to
feed an exclusive grain ration Of rye,
and better results would be obtained
from mixture of rye, meal and corn.

Experiences Dipping Sheep.

! would not think of keeping a flock
of sheep without dipping them. M
merous dips on the market have been
used, yet we prefer the liquid non
poisonous dips, for they are more
easily mixed with water than those in
powdered form, says a writer in the
Baltimore American. For dipping 100
ewes and their lambs we arranged a
triangular apartment in the barn, so
as TO prevent chasing the sheep as
much as possible One of the points
of the Enclosure is at a small door.
On the outside we have n galvanized
tank sunk in the ground, the top of
which is on the level with the ground
Noor. AS the sheep escape they come
directly into the tank, in which they
are kept nearly submerged The fluid
Is diluted with no gallons soft water
to one gallon of the dip, The sheep
are kept in this for at least two
minutes They are then allowed to
move up the incline, which contains
a water tight floor so that the drip
pings will run back into the tank.

Feed for Steers.

AS the age of the steer increases
a greater proportion of the feed con.
sumed above that required for main
tenance is used for the production of
fat and a smaller proportion for
growth This makes it possible to fin
ish the two year old cattle in shorter
time, provided they are started on
feed in the same condition. When
carried to the same degree of finish
cattle of different ages will have to
be sold under different conditions, as
the market for fat cattle is continu-
ally fiuctuating.

Early Maturity In Swine.

This is an exceedingly desirable
quality in most animals, but is par.
ticularly true in hogs If the spring
pigs can be made to grow rapidly, lay
on the right kind of flesh and fat and
be marketed in the fall, the profit is
sure to be considerable. Most of the
growth and weight is put on while
plenty of pasture is available. This
makes 1t possible to secure gain at a
very low figure. Breeds like Poland
China, Essex, Thin Rind, Small York
shire, etc, seem to be quite desirable
for early maturity.
