When the pigs ae two or three weeks

them from a separate trough made
but few inches deep Skim milk or
a thin porridge of middiings Is greatly
relished at this time. As soon as
they begin to eat freely they should

should be fed so as to gain in weight

Young growing pigs should have
plenty OF green pasture, pure water

ing pigs to grow for a year on pasture

Some of the best green feeds for
hogs are alfalfa, clover. rape. COW peas,

When young nursing pigs begin to

from over feeding on corn, or other

apt to suffer. Sudden changes of
food. or feeding sour or decomposing
slop, or food from dirty troughs, or

diarrhoea either in nursing pigs or

such causes should be prevented on

building operations will be effectually
shut In to prevent the escape Of dust.

come not only commercial economy,
but bodily health and spiritual Joy.
We may expect, In any event. dou-
bic tunnels under all the business
streets and the utmost use of the pres
ent street levels by extensive double
decking and many more overhead
transportation lines. Some time the
rush In the cities may cease, but soc
no signs now of its ceasing, and mean
