THE sILo AND ALFALFA.

Professor w J. Fraser, of the Illi-
nois Agricultural College, in referring
to silage and alfalfa as great helps
for the dairy farmer says:
The summer silo gives the best and
most economical protection of all
against drouth.
One of the very greatest crops for
the dairyman, and one which is now
being successfully grown on thou
sands of farms in Illinois, is alfalfa.
Every dairyman should have patch
Of alfalfa, and this will supply the
finest of feed when the drouth has
ruined ordinary pastures. The al
falfa at the university yielded more
than six tons of air dry hay per acre
last year.
The great advantage of corn in the
silo and alfalfa is that they not only
produce the largest yield of nutrients
per acre of any crops, but are in the
best condition for feeding at what
ever date the pasture may fail, while
1t is difficult to have a constant sup
ply of other soiling crops in the right
stage of maturity at and during the
uncertain time of the drouth
Never, under any conditions, allow
the cows to go hungry and suffer loss
of milk during the summer drouth,
which for several reasons is the most
trying season for the dairy herd.

HOG FEEDING TEST.

One of the State experiment sta
tons has made careful test in feed
ing hogs certain foods, and gives the
results in the following summary:
j. That it required eighteen per
cent. more barley by weight than corn
to produce the same gain in feeding
pigs when both grains were fed in the
proportion of four parts of grain to
one of shorts by weight.
2. That it is profitable to feed
barley to hogs if pork is selling at an
average price.
3. That the carcasses of the pigs
fed barley and shorts showed a great
er distribution of lean and firmer
flesh than the carcasses of pigs fed
corn and shorts.
4. That pigs fed on corn and
shorts will dress higher per cent.
than pigs fed on barley and shorts.
5. That cross-bred Yorkshire
Berkshires made more gain than the
other cross-breds or pure-breds used
in this trial
Another test at feeding other foods
b given as follows:
1. We can conclude from the re-
suits Of this trial THAI ground rejected
wheat is capable of producing good
gains when fed to swine in connection
with shorts.
2. In comparison with corn it re-
quires SO per cent. more rejected
wheat than corn to produce the same
gains.
3. The quality of pork produced
Is even better than that produced by
corn,
4. If pork is selling for reason
able price, fairly good price may be
expected from feeding the rejected
wheat to swine. Weekly Witness.

wEAN THE PIGS.

1t is not good plan to take all the
pigs from the SOW unless one or two
of them can be turned with her some
hours after, to draw the milk she will
have at that time, and again, say af-
ter lapse of twenty-four hours. The
preferred way is to leave two of the
smallest with her for several days, and
after that leave only one for two or
three days, by which time the flow
Of milk will have been SO gradually
diminished that no injury will result
to the SOW by keeping them entirely
away from her. This extra supply of
milk helps also to push the smaller
pigs along in growth and put them
more nearly on an equality in size
with their thriftier mates.-From Co
burns Swine in America"
