The Iowa experiment station re-
ports that meat meal. which Is very
similar to tankage. in texture at least,
may be fed to hogs with excellent re
suits mixed with water alone, IL In the
experiments conducted at that station
one quart OF meal was mixed with
about a gallon OF water. This makes
q thin slop that does not stick to the
hogs feet nor to the troughs; the ami
mails consume It eagerly.
Feeding tankage in this way saves
grinding part Of the grain. and thus
saves needless expense, for It has
been determined that shoats up to 200
pounds in weight make more econom-
ical gains on ear corn than upon corn
fed in any other way. Spring shoats
may be most economically fed on ear
corn right through to marketing. This
make 1t all the more desirable that
none of the corn be ground.

Freedom Needed for PIGS.

Young pigs must have unbounded
freedom in direct sunlight. and pure
air for healthy, normal growth, says
Swine Breeders Journal. They must
be able and induced to run and play at
large range, for upon strong physi-
cal constitution depends the future
health and growing and fattenfng pow
er of the older hog.
Pigs confined in small pen or
house, where they are compelled to
lie in bed all day or simply walk about
a little, can not exercise enough to de-
velop bones, muscles and all vital or
gans. AL young animals must. play
during the early growing period, and
the man who does not know this
natural necessity and permit them
wide room for play will soon be disap-
pointed in growing them. .
