pounds Of corn. Begin with a light
ration and work up gradually to the
maximum. They should be ready to
market the latter part of July.
Prime cornfed cattle are scarce
during the summer, as most of the
feeders in the lots are finished and
shipped out before this time. The
packers must have cattle with some
finish, and they pay a good price to
get them. Coming on the market at
this time, the steers fed on grass will
bring almost as good a price as stock
fed full grain ration in a dry lot.
The success Of this plan of feeding
is due to the low price at which the
cattle can be bought and the thin con-
dition of the animals coming in the
common class Of feeders. Making eco.
nomical gains Is not a breed but a
type characteristic. Often the best
and poorest gains made are by indi.
yiduals of the same breed.
Less labor is required with summer
feeding. The cattle gather their
roughage, and the manure produced
by them is distributed, and evenly In
winter, dry-lotfeeding steers are fed
a ration of IS to % pounds of grain
and to pounds of hay apiece, when
on full feed.

CONSTRUCTION OF HEN HOUSE
Few Practical Suggestions That VIII
Be of Much Assistance to the
Poultry Keeper.

(By ]. G. HALPIN and c. A OCOCK,
wisconsin,
For success in poultry keeping It
Is necessary to have suitable house
which will protect the fowls from in
clement weather and from their nat
ural enemies.
1t must be remembered that from
the standpoint of the hen, appearance
makes very little difference, but the
house must be so built and SO ar
ranged that it will be a comfortable
place for the hens to live; otherwise
they will not thrive and production
will not be satisfactory. On many
farms the hens are not provided with
a house constructed especially for
them, but are housed in an old build
Ing originally made for some other
purpose. AS a rule this sort Of a
house is not economical, for, unless It
is constructed especially for hens, it
will seldom be found possible to re-
construct it in such a way as to
make economical production possible.
Poultry houses should be located.
where 1t is dry and well drained. If
the ground is not naturally dry, It
should be ditched and drained artifi-
cially, for poultry will not thrive in
a house when the floor is constantly
wet. A damp location means damp

Hogs require green food along with
a moderate amount of grain; but they
will keep in good, thrifty condition
during the summer months on clover
and grass alone. Every farmer having
hogs should SOW a patch Of Essex

new crop seed to the acre; the ground
must be deep, finely pulverized and in
good order. In ten weeks from SOW
ing this makes a good pig pasture and
good grazing; the pigs will grow fast
and will be kept healthy. When fed
on rape the pigs should have at all
times a mixture of wood and coal
ashes, mixing one handful of salt and
one Of sulphur in each peck of ashes.
The fattening properties of rape are
probably twice as good as those Of
clover. Last falls pigs should be CIV

wheat bran and wheat middlings.
Mix with boiling water. A few small
ears of corn may be given after the
mixed feed is eaten. Have the pens
clean and dry; give a thick bed Of

ers give the following mixture to their
hogs; they consider 1t better than
wood and coal ashes alone: Ten
pounds of burnt bones, 10 pounds of
water and 10 pounds of sulphuric acid.
The burnt bones are put into an iron
pot and moistened with the water;
the acid is then slowly poured over
the mass and we'll stirred in. Great
care must be used in handling the
acid, as the least drop on the hand
will burn like fire. Mix this with an
equal quantity of freshly burnt hard
wood ashes; let the pigs have a little
OF this mixture twice a week. 1t is
especially good for pigs troubled with
tumors caused Gy eating too much
corn. Have a grass pasture or dry
yard adjoining the pens, as they must
have plenty of exercise to keep them
in good, thrifty condition.

Proper Way to Moke Partition.

poultry house all the way through,
and the result is that the fowls are
affected with many troublesome dis
eases.
Houses should be placed so that
they will not be subject to violent
winds, yet good air and drainage are
essential. A house should never be
placed in a low, damp spot where
early fall frosts are likely to occur.
These places are always cold and I'M
healthy for fowls.
One hundred hens will thrive in a
pen 20X20 feet, that is four square feet
of floor spae per hen, but one hen
will not thrive in pen 2x2 feet. In
a large pen each one has a chance to
wander about over the entire floor
space, thus getting more exercise.
Generally speaking, it is far cheaper
to build a wide house than a narrow
one. A house 20X20 is cheaper than
a house 10x4O and contains as much
floor space for the hens. A house
20 feet wide, however, will be found
impracticable for some types of roofs
and will not be found satisfactory
where one wishes to keep a number
Of small breeding pens. There are
several common types of roofs used
on poultry houses.
Just which style Of roof should be
chosen is largely matter of personal
preference, but the type of roof will
be found TO influence the cost of con-
struction TO quite an extent.
Wherever there is only one poultry
house a partition is always advisable
as it permits one to keep the hens sep
