1t is not a general rule that farmers
keep their stock too fat ia winter.
Most of them keep their stock too
poor. However, many farmers with
an abundance of corn feed all their
hogs. young and old alike. in the same
pen. AS a consequence the growing
pigs become too fat for their own
good and not infrequently some OF
them die from no other cause than be-
ing too fat. III 1.
The pig to do it's best and become a
large and well finished hog should
be kept constantly growing and in
good round flesh II should be given
fairly rich heterogeneous and mineral
foods for the building of blood. flesh
and bones. 1t may become fat enough
to be comfortable in winter, but sur
plus fat is an actual detriment to It,
No animal. hog or otherwise, can be
in perfect health and carry a heavy
surplus of fat The finished hog is
made extremely fat for a definite pur-
pose-the market demand-its life to
end when the full measure of fat is
placed upon IT. Not SO with the pig.
1t is TO live and grow for some time to
come, and it's health and vitality must
not be impaired while II is growing.
Hogs make the greatest net profits
when grown and fattened on pasture
or forage crops. Instead of forcing
young pigs on corn this winter, IL
would be better to feed them mixed
ration to keep them in good growing
order and save the extra corn to feed
them in connection with green forage
next summer. Corn will go twice as
far fed to hogs in summer on pasture
than fed by itself in winter in dry
lot. Pigs fed on corn through the
winter and finished for the late
winter or early spring market
will scarcely pay for their feed
at the present prices of corn and hogs.
The same pigs kept and fattened on
forage and corn next summer will pro-
duce a profit.

this reason that the inlet fiue should
begin near the ground on the outside
and end neaf the ceiling inside. All
that is necessary is to have the outer
end of the flue several feet lower than

different Illustrations There should
be a number of inlets of small size,
in order that the fresh air may be
evenly distributed throughout the

When Mrs. Parkinson concluded
