PURE WATER ESSENTIAL
Mistaken Idea That Hogs Thrive I'm
der Filthy Conditions.

Steers and hogs and all other ami
mails that are fattening or giving milk
or doing any work. require a good
pure supply OF clean, fresh water at
all times. 1t is a mistake to think
that the hog will do Just as well as II
he drinks the muddy, filthy water OF
the wallow. A shallow pond In a
corner of the pasture is not good
enough supply for the steers. And
an Icy cold supply is not good enough
for the dairy COW.
The fact that the difference In gain
can not be noticed from day to day
makes some men careless about these
things. II the cattle or hogs we're
nut on the scales regularly, however,
or the milk weighed at every milking
4, would soon be seen that the water
supply Is matter OF vital Importance
that concerns the pocketbook. The
slight difference in the gain OF steer
on good pure water or on filthy water
which he will drink only little OF
ia the. difference that goes In for prom
or left out makes the whole feeding
come out barely even.
