FORAGE CROPS FOR HOGS.

The quick and easy income usually
yielded by hogs prompts wasteful
methods of management. Hogs are
not always profitable, and when prices
for fat stock are low compared with
feed. it is the wasteful feeder who suf-
fers most. Those who have raised
their pigs cheaply frequently find that
they have made a profit on the opera
ton taken as a whole, even when they
have been forced to fatten Accent hogs
on 50-cent corn
Pasture of some kind is essential for
hogs. 1t pays to provide fresh grazing
throughout the growing season. Health
and thrift as we'll as economy of gains
depend upon it. The pig raised on a
diet including an abundance of tooth
some, succulent feed natures a large
frame at an early age, with large Wig
orous digestive organs, and the ability
to put on fat rapidly and cheaply at
the last. II the green feed can be con-
tinued along with corn until the hog is
ready for market the gains will be
more economical than can be made in
a dry lot on grain alone.
Many a corn-belt renter has been
kept from raising hogs because he had
no permanent pasture to spare for
them. Such an obstacle is not so Sc
rious as it may seem. Bluegrass pas
ture is not nearly so good as some
other crops for hogs. Clover and al
falfa are probably worth about twice
as much per acre. A small area tenn
orarily enclosed with low woven-w wire
fence, stretched tight may be turned
into an admirable hog pasture by
sowing suitable crops early in the
spring. Oats, rape and clover, or oats,
rape and Canada field peas, or rape
alone, produce about as much pork per
acre in the corn belt as welI-set
clover sod. The land must be thor
oughly preared and the seed sown
rather thickly. When the crop gets
well started an abundance of feed is
assured if it is not overstocked.
Glover, alfalfa and annual forage
crops have been found to yield from
500 to 500 pounds of pork per acre
apart from that produced from the
corn fed in addition. Best results af-
ter weaving, Where economy rather
than rapidity Of growth of the pigs is
desired, have been secured with a half
ration of grain on pasture until the
shotes were ready for the final rush of
fattening. 1t is possible by this plan
to make a large amount OF healthy
growth on the cheap green feed. al
though the pigs can not thrive on IT
without some grain fed all the time.
The man with limited pasture may ad-
vantageously provide for his hogs in
this way.-Breeder's Gazette, Chicago.

WHY THE SOUTH SHOULD
GROW MORE LIVE STOCK

Southern Railway Company-Ofce
of the President.
Washington, d. c., April Is. 1911.
To the Farmers of the South: The
consumption of meat products in the
United States is constantly increasing,
and there is a steady demand for
American meats in foreign markets.
Statistics of the number of animals
on farms and ranges on the first of
january each year, published by the
United States agricultural department,
show that, in recent years, meat pro-
duction in the United States, instead
of keeping pace with the increased de-
mand, has decreased.
The maximum number of cattle,
other than mich cows, reported by the
department was 51,566,0O0 on January
1, 1907. On January 1, 1910, the latest
year for which figures have been pub
Iished, the number was 47,279,O0O, a
decrease of 4,2S7, 900, or S.3 per cent in
three years. The maximum number of
hogs reported was 56,9S2,OO0. on jan
uary 1, 1901. On January 1, 1910, the
number was 47,7S2,0O0, a decrease of
$500, 00Q or 16.1 per cent. The maxi
mum number of sheep reported was
So, 965, 000 on January l, 1903. On Jam
uary 1, 1910, the number was 10000,
E decrease of 6,749.0O, or 10,5 per cent.
The decrease in the number of cattle
has been, in large measure. due to the
cutting up of the great western ranges
into farms. These great ranges are
now becoming a thing of the past, and
the meat supply of the United States.
