GOOD MANAGEMENT OF SWINE
Two Systems Now Commonly Used
for Housing Pigs, Both Having
Their Own Advantages.

There are two systems now CON-
monty used for housing swine, the
central house system and the separ-
ate houses. Both have their advan-
tages and many farmers will do we'll
to use both to a certain extent. The
important factor in pig pens is to keep
the swine dry and free from drafts.
Damp beds and sleeping pens cause
trouble.
Cement floors are preferable for q
hog house, but sleeping pens should al.
ways be overlaid with board floors.
AS rule hogs should be fed outside
on feeding floor. Inside feeding is
unsanitary and wasteful of space,
even though it may be convenient.
Weaving pigs is very important
subject. If not properly weaned it
proves detrimental TO both the sows
and the pigs. Pigs begin to eat when
four or five weeks old and 1t is al
ways best to have them eating we'll
before weaving. They can be fed to
the best advantage in small pen
away from the old sows. The pigs
will early learn to eat shelled corn
and small quantity should always
be kept before them, either in
trough or on clean spot on the feed
ing floor. When fed on a slop "a.
tion the dry corn they consume in ad-
dition appears to keep them from
securing. At this state of growth the
utmost care should be taken to keep
animals from getting off feed. They

SOME DISEASES OF POULTRY
Outside of Roup, Cholera or Chicken
Mites Little Is Known of Dis
orders Of Hen.

Veterinarians know but very little
about diseases of poultry, and with
poultry rafsers it is always a propo-
sition of roup, cholera or chicken
mites.
The revenues from poultry products,
In the aggregate, are so enormous
that statistics are looked upon with
suspicion. Much money and time have
been spent in the investigation of dis
eases of larger animals, and many
volumes written, yet in economic i'm.
portance they are, in some instances,
comparatively insignificant. The chick
en- individually represents small value,
and is, therefore, neglected.; collective
ly the animal would pay the public
debt.
There are no other food producing
animals that suffer nearly so large a
loss for disease. The chickens begin
dying and are thrown over the fence
as long as they last, and perhaps
little red pepper or onions are added
to the feed as medicine.
However, the poultryman has
learned from dire experience that it
pays to keep the hen house and poul-
try yard clean, and every poultry
raiser has few receipts for keeping
away cholera and roup. The normal
temperature of the chicken is from
five to ten degrees higher than other
farm animals, and consequently the
diseases are characteristic and Incl
dent only to chickens and their kind.
Not knowing the nature of poultry

Of course the remedies are on a pair
with sixteenth century therapeutics,
as applied to the larger animals and
to man.

through its experiment station. has
determined to look into this enormous
loss incident to diseases of poultry.
but If all the experiment stations were
to undertake the same task it would

to know as much about diseases of
poultry as we do of the larger ami.

She had come to live with her aunt
when she was little girl, and It had
not taken her long to find out that
argument with that strong, stern per.
sonality was like beating her head
against stone wall.
The one compensation for the lack
OF sympathy which she found in her
home was the beauty of tho country
surrounding it. Virginia's childhood

aunt's rambling white house. with the

or in the living-room, where they
sewed together.
But Virginia loved the out of doors.
She had begged the privilege of ta-
king care of the vegetable garden
when she found that she could not
have flowers. OF late, too, there had
been a deeper reason for Virginia's
Joy In her out-ofdoor work. Across the
fence was another garden, and in this
garden some one worked. whose

then the whistle would stop and a
voice would give CHEEKY greeting to
Virginia.
Virginia always sent back tinid an
swers. Miss Cornelia had no use for
the neighbors on the other side Of
the fence. She called them shiftless
and refused to recognize that the son
of the family was different from the
others. She would not admit that
his industry was redeeming the scrub

Virginia smiled bravely and said,

she had run away from him into the
house.
Miss Cornelia had seen the two by
the fence and had resolved to keep
Virginia. If possible, out of the gar.
den. Miss Cornelia had her own ideas
about matrimony for her niece. The
young doctor in town who called now
