AIDS FOR THE
HOG BREEDER
Two Pastures Better Than One -
Vicious Animal Should be
Killed Provide
Shelter.

The breed OF white hogs Is rapidly
disappearing from this country.
Free range for hogs does not mean
that they should be allowed to run
over our neighbours farm.
With good fence wire as cheap as
it is today it is an easy matter to d.
vide up the hog pasture into convenient
lots.
Two pastures are better than one.
because while the hogs are feeding
in one field the other will be recover
ing and later furnish much more at.
tractive feed than as If both pastures
are used as one.
The vicious hog that is forever
breaking out and causing trouble for
ones neighbor cannot be killed too
quickly.
1t is a good plan to provide sum
mer shelter for the hogs on high
spot where the wind viii have full
sweep.

CONVENIENCE OF DIVIDING

Kind of Pork Desired.

rushed through the month of No
vember, or until conditions are right
for marketing.
The clearest profit is made in ten
months. at which age, the hogs ought
to average $50 pounds Animals that
get good pasturage, and about such 81
diet as | have described, are pretty
sure to escape disease. 1t is essential
to have plenty of pure water in the
hog lot
The farm should include three or
four small fields, securely fenced, SO
that one kind of forage could be
rested, while the other was used. Then
again, If the owner detects fever or
other sickness in the herd, it is easy
to segregate those animals which are
affected. Prompt action along this
line, may prevent heavy loss.
Dipping is another essential, and as
it is neither difficult or expensive, it
ought to be attended to, twice each
summer. With this kind of hog farm
ing, cholera will not be known, and
the stock will get steady growth,
from beginning to end
If the weather be severe, when it
comes to the last month of feeding,
the hogs should be kept in clean,
roomy pens, but even to the last day,
they should have some succulent for
eggplant to eat. Glover or alfalfa is
suitable for this, and carrots are ex-
cellent, in connection with the corn,
or peas.
1t is for the good of the animal, and
of course for the owners pocket, that
a program of this kind be marked out.
Feeding 50-cent corn, for six or eight
months, will not do. Farmers must
learn that forage is natural to the hog,
and that it will give the growth at
small cost.
Allowing full rental value for the
land, the cost of all food supplies, and
the wage value Of the time taken up
in the care Of the stock, from the date
Of birth, to the marketing 100 hogs
10 months old averaging 250 pounds,
can be turned off, at a cost not ex-
ceding $500
1t may be done for a little less, but
if it is to be business proposition,
let it be figured as a business man
would count the expense. With care
full experimenting and observation. for
several years, l get no figures very
far from 81 for a marketable hog
weighing $50 pounds.

Every farmer, who raises as many
as 100 hogs in year, ought to divide
them into spring and fall herds. By
this means he will be able to distrib-
ute the labor to suit his convenience,
economic in room, sell when the mar
ket suits him, and furnish his custo-
mers on short notice, any kind of pork
desired, from suckling-roast to prime
bacon.
The thoroughly practical man can
turn hogs into money very rapidly,
but the business needs to be on scale
properly divide his fields and build
ings, and to make thorough expert
ments, with different types, and differ
ent kinds of food.
l have observed two or three bad
failures recently, which were caused
primarily, by the old and erroneous
idea that hogs do not require much
ground room or forage.
In raising pork for the market, the
farmer ought to keep in mind these
vital points: Cost of feeding, danger
of disease or sickness, and range of
market prices.
Starting the season with so to 100
pigs just weaned the owner should
provide pasturage Of some kind.

ALFALFA PEST
WORKS INJURY
weevfI As Not Native to America,
But Introduced From
Europe, Asia and
Africa.
(By T. M. WEBSTER.)

The alfalfa weevil is not native to
America, but has been accidentally in
troduced from Europe, western Asia,
or northern Africa, where it is very
common, and where, while more or
less destructive to alfalfa, it is prob
ably prevented by its natural enemies
from working serious and widespread
ravages.
The insect winters entirely in the
beetle stage, seeking shelter, before
the frosts Of autumn commence. either
in the crowns of alfalfa plants, close
to the surface of the ground in the
field or under leaves, matted grass,
weeds, and rubbish along ditch banks,
hay stacks and straw stacks. Indeed
1t is oftentimes found in barns where
hay is kept over winter.
It has been estimated that fully 80
per cent of the beetles that go into
winter quarters in the fall live through
until spring. With the coming Of
spring the beetles make their way
