the conclusions drawn that dry corn
is highly reIished by hogs and the most
convenient to feed. Owing to the
greater time required to masticate 1t.
pigs ate 1t more slowly than soaked
corn and cornmeal.
The fastest and most economical
gains were obtained by feeding dry
ear corn until the hogs were close to
200 pounds In weight. Attention Is
called to the fact that whether fed dry
or soaked before feeding. a bushel Of
corn ground without the cob made
more pork than a bushel of corn
ground with the cob. A bushel of ear
corn made as much gain as one and
one-third bushels ground into corn and
cobmeal at the expense Of 8 cents a
bushel.

The farmer who makes a practice OF

the fertility of the farm.
Every year as the crop is gathered

were visiting friends In Chicago when
received letter from an old school
mate asking us TO run out to the
farm and pay them little visit. The
farm, he wrote. was some thirty miles
out of Chicago, and we were to come
informally

train would land us there at 2 o'clock
in the afternoon. and. remembering
my boyhood up in New Hampshire,
knew that at that hour they would
just be washing up the dinner dishes.
SO we took particular pains to have
an early luncheon before we started.

DRoNEs OF THE FARM.
Stations and Bulls Should Earn Their

fact that II full grown bull is white

either breeding or value; that his care

sunflower Seed For poultry7

Sunfiower seed is recommended for
feeding poultry from the fact that the
kernel of the seed contains oil that is
thought to be beneficial for improving
the quality of color and gloss upon the
piumage of fowls and as an aid to
poultry during molt. The facts are
thar sunilower seed is more than 80
per cent waste matter. the hubs OF
sunfiower seeds being very difficult for
the fowls to digest and of little or nc

be of benefit to poultry. Any consider

A subscriber of the Iowa Homestead
