Hog NOtpS.

A farm without a herd of hogs is
very much like butcher shop with
out beef
The prices at which hogs have been
selling for some time past Is sufficient
evidence that you can't keep a hog
down
The brood SOW should be given a
variety of food for two months pre-
vious to farrowing.
Many breeders who have made a
close study in their own herds OF the
question CT fecundity of sows assert
that seven pigs are enough for the
average sow.
Breeders who take pains to i'm
prove their herds along Fundamental
lines should keep accurate records
of each sow's work
1t is not the number of pigs a SOW
farrows that spells success so mucl
as the number she brings up to SAT-
weaving.
Skim milk is the most efficient sup
plement to shelled corn or corn mea
as a ration for fattening hogs.
Breeders should keep a sharp look
| out for tuberculosis in hogs. Fedora
inspection throughout the countr-
shows that per cent, about 1,120, 00
hogs were found when slaughtered t
| be affected with tuberculosis.
Don't put corn and other good fee,
all summer into an animal in the no
! line that you know will never be any
thing but little "dink." Get size i
your breeding stock, for it is pound
that tell on the market Good weigh
put on quickly and cheaply is wha
makes the big profit

Vitality of Seeds.

The period for which the seeds Of
different plants maintain their vitality
varies a good deal. The seeds of
vegetables are worthless after they are
two years old, while the seeds of 9TH
er plants improve with age until a
certain period. For instance, the
seeds of artichokes are good until
they are three years old; asparagus,
four years; beans, two years; kidney
beans, one year; beets, ten years;
brocolli, four years; cabbage, four
years; carrots, one year; cauliflower'
four years; celery, ten years; corn,
three years; cucumber, ten years;
eggplant, three years; endive, four
years; kale, four years; leek, ten
years; lettuce three years; melon, ten
years, pea, two years; pumpkin. ten
years; radish, four years; satisfy, two
years; spinach, four years; squash
four years; tomato, two years, and
turnips, ten years.

SNOW At KAMELA
IS MELTING FAST
WARM sun TAKES OFF
ABOUT 3 INCHES A DAY
South Slopes Nearly Bare-Stlll -Four
Feet Of Snow in Some Places-Big
Snow FAN in March and April OF
Last Year-Prosperous Year Il
Predicted.
(speclal Correspondence. }

Kamela, Ore, March 15.-It now
looks like danger from floods is past
unless a great change in the weather
takes place. The weather the past
week or ten days has been clear and
very warm, melting about three
inches Of. the well packed snow each
day, which now avera ges about 26
inches on the level. The nights have
been sufficiently cold to freeze a lit
tie and hold the bulk of the water in
the snow, or rather, causing it to en-
ter the ground and assure steady
flow for the streams during the sum-
mer months. The south slopes are
almost bare, in fact are bare in many
places, but north slopes make up fol
this. There still remains as much a!
four feet of snow in some scattered
places, deep in the gulches on nortf
sides of mountains, but this is only
around the submits.
Last year 81 inches of snow fell dur
ing March and % in April and should
this take place this year some floods
might occur yet, but it is not so like
| ly to snow now since we have had 81
much more snow this winter durini
! the early months.

Dairy Notes.

A Babcock tester can be bought for
from 81 up, and the man who first
uses one on his cows should prepare
himself to change his opinion of some
of them.
1t isn't always the big milker which
shows best when the tester is used.
Professor Err says the civilization
of people can be determined by the
quantity of milk they use. Sure. only
highly civilized people keep cows that
give enough milk to make It worth
while to get into the habit of making
butter and cheese.
The Separator is a mighty good
thing Notwithstanding what the sepa-
rator manufacturers say about each
others machines
The man who feeds each COW by the
same rule will never get the most out
of his herd.

FACTS FOR FARMERS

gon, Washington or California. The
main thing is to stimulate a health
full intrest in country life. After that
the individual will choose for himself
where he wishes to live. According
to information recently received the
demand for farms in Michigan is
greater since the movement to the ir-
rigated districts of Idaho than 1t was
before the reclaimed lands were
thrown open.
Irrigation has added to the cultiv-
able areas Of the United States a vast
empire and dry farming will add as
much more. One firm in louisiana
within the next two years, will add
more than 100000 acres of the rich
est possible soil to Uncle Sans de-
main by taking water off that much
land after 1t has been enriched by
overflow waters for centuries.

but not fattening her. A week or ten
days before farrowing l put the SOW
in "A pen to herself.
"If the SOW does well in farrowing
do not bother her about her feed
until she leaves her bed of her own
accord; then / mix a bran mash for
her for the first feed. But IL / am
not well acquainted with her suck
ling qualities ! go slow on slop, as too
much rich slop with a heavy sucker
will scour and sometimes kill the
pigs. When the pigs are three or
four weeks old / fix a pen for them
to run in where the sow can not get
and they will soon learn to eat she'll
ed corn and drink sweet milk from
the trough, then mix some bran and
shorts with their slop.
"A good run of clover or alfalfa
for SOW and pigs until the pigs are
weaned is good"

Burn SuIpbur I'm Hen House.

Warm weather will soon be here
to stay until next winter, and the
chicken house should be put in good
sanitary condition before the warm
days get here.
On the first sunny and pleasant day
throw plenty of grain among some
litter on the warm side Of the poultry
house, close the building up tightly
and burn about pound Of sulphur In
side. Have the sulphur wrapped in
paper and place it in some old iron
vessel. AS soon as the paper starts
to burning nicely, go out Of the
house and let the sulphur burn an
hour or so.
Late in the day open up the house
and at the same time feed the chick
ems so they will be kept busy until
the sulphur fumes all get out Of the
| poultry house.

Sows at EarroM.ing Time.

How to care for sow and her lit
ter was interestingly told by L. A.
Hinshaw Of Zionsville, Ind, at a
meeting of the Indiana State Swine
Breeders association, at the annual
meeting recently held. His story was
short. but to the point. He said:
''The SOW a month before breeding
/ like in good condition-not burden
ed with fat, but not thin, having the
run of grass with grain enough to
keep her gaining some flesh. After
she is bred and safe with pigs I feed
corn and milk, with bran and shorts
enough to keep her growing nicely

animal down and leave 1t. A hog
can't grow unless its heart action and
digestive apparatus are good.
Hogs should be fed all they Will
clean up well, but when they are be-
ing fattened for market they should
not be given 50 much that they will
leave part of 1t uneaten.
High prices for hogs on foot should
never induce swine breeder to sell
