EXERCISE is NEEDED
Hogs Degenerate Under Condi-
tons of Artificial Luxury.
All Young Pigs and Immature Mem
bers of the Herd Should Be Com
PEELED to Do Much Walking
and Climbing for Living.

Lack of exercise is one of the fac
tors in the physical deterioration OF
the breed of hogs.
Not one breeder in a dozen allows
or compels his breeding hogs to take
adequate exercise.
Hogs, like men, gradually degen-
crate under conditions Of artificial
luxury Any animal that can live
without work will ultimately become
extinct. This applies to every form
of life Labor is the price which life
must pay for itself.
Exercise is absolutely essential to
the maintenance Of health, vigor and
fecundity in hogs.
Breeding hogs kept in small pas
lures or pens, and literally fed, lose
the power to transmit the highest
virility and vital integrity to their on
spring.
1t is a serious mistake to confine
breeding hogs where the necessity for
regular exercise does not exist. Sows
nearing parturition should of course
be confined, but all young things and
other immature members of the herd
should be compelled to do a deal of

from the bonnet 1t falls TO the lot Of the lad who
draws the blackened piece to leap three times
through the flames of the bonfire although
cording to tradition the man who in ancient times
was unfortunate enough to draw the blackened
piece was supposed to give himself literal
rifce to the flames in the hope that the god Baal
might be induced to grant prosperous and pro-
ductive year To this same origin is traced the

having fathers jump through the flames
with their children in their arms
The ancient Romans, unlike the Druids, made
May Day festival of flowers instead Of
casion for sacrifices, and consequently 1t Is rea-
sonable to suppose that most of our present-day
ideas to the May holiday in this country may
be traced back to the Romans. Indeed. the
images of Flora that graced the Roman festivals
had their prototypes in the Maydolls which were
until few years ago universally popular In Eng
land and which, in some sections OF the country,
yet paraded on this eventful holiday. Some
people inclined to believe that these May-dos,
in turn. suggested the Queen of the May who was
indispensable sovereign at every May
Day festivity and who yet presides over every
such merry-making that attempts to fully live up
to tradition

VALUE OF COTTON SEED MEAL
Probably Cheapest Concentrate Feed
Offered on Market, When Nutri-
ment Is Considered.

(By w. A. LIEKLATER, Oklahoma Sta
tion.)
Cottonseed meal is probably the
cheapest concentrate feed offered on
the market today, when we consider
the amount of nutriment it contains.
1t Is not considered as safe for gen.
erai feeding as bran and such other
feeds. There has no doubt been un-
satisfactory results in some cases
from feeding cattle heavily on cotton
seed meal. 1t is also true that there
are plenty of cases on record where
hogs have died from feeding on cot
tonseed meal. Judiciously fed, how
ever, cottonseed meal is an econO-
mical and sufficiently safe feed. In
the case of young pigs and breeding
hogs / would not recommend that
more than one-eighth of the ration
consist Of cottonseed meal The 9TH
er seven-eighths may consist of corn.
Kafflr, or milo chop, shorts, sill run or
such other feeds. For fattening hogs
more cottonseed can be safely and
satisfactorily fed than one-eighth of
the grain ration. / know of number
of cases where men make practice
of feeding fattening hogs a'ration con-
sisting Of one-third cottonseed meal
for period of sixty days and report
satisfactory results / believe in each
case the feed is soaked from twelve to
twenty-four hours before feeding.
Continued feeding of ration consist
ing OF one-third to one-fourth cotton
seed meal would no doubt kill many
hogs, but small pigs and breeding
hogs may be fed mixture OF one
eighth cottonseed meal almost in
definitely and fattening hogs may be
safely fed as rich a mixture as one
to four of cotton seed meal for pc
Rod Of sixty days without bad results.
There is practically no difference In
the feeding value of cottonseed meal
and cottonseed cake The cottonseed
cake must be broken up in small
pieces to be fed to most classes OF
stock and for this reason is scarcely
as convenient as c0ttonseed meal.

ling for their living.
In state of nature all animals
work for their food; work involves
exercise; exercise tones up and keeps
in healthy condition all muscles. in
ducing proper circulation of the blood
and developing the highest efficiency
in the animal
Fattening hogs intended for the
shambles should of course be closely
confined and deprived of excessive
exercise. All the exercise which they
should be given should be more acct
dental than intentional. When fat is
the object exercise should be largely
eliminated.
With breeding hogs the case is al
together different. From pighood to
maturity Is a period which should be
characterized by an abundance of
rigorous exercise. 1t is important to
develop muscle and bone and so lay
the foundation for constitution and
the demands which reproduction
makes on either sex. Pigs that lie
around in comfort, lazily browse Glow
er in field adjacent to their sleeping
quarters, have no excuse for hustling
and all their lives take it easy" are
sure to degenerate And this is exact
ly what a large and increasing per
centage of all breeds has done.
