MANAGEMENT OF YOUNG PIGS

(By PROF. w. B. RICHARDS, North

Young pigs should be given plenty

time they begin to get strong enough
to run about. II they are confined

fosh too rapidly and become infected
With what is known as THUMBS,
Thumps are indicated by violent VI

by the deposition of fat about the in.
ternal organs. When the pigs get an

results In death. II the weather Is
1t Is a good plan as soon as the
pigs are old enough to begin eating. to
scatter some grain on the floor OF the
alley ways and let them pick it up,
Lots should be provided adjoining the
pens OF the piggery In order that the
pigs may have the run of them as
as the weather will permit. Thew
should be transferred to a erass lot
as soon as grass comes.
Pigs generally have learned to eat
when they are about three weeks old.
From this time on they should be
encouraged 20 eat as much as possi.
BILE. Provisions should be made 80
that the pigs can be fed in an en-.
closure to which they may gain access
by means Of a creep. When they
hrst begin to eat, feed q mixture OF
middlings and skim milk, for there

oats may be added to their ration
when they are about a month to six
weeks old.

Imported Pests.

by DR.. W. B. BELL. Biologist, North
Dakota Agricultural College.)
The following extract from the re-
port of the chief Of the bureau OF
biological survey for the year 1911
deserves the careful attention of ev.
cry person In North Dakota. The
facts stated regarding insects and
birds are particularly applicable in
our state at the present time when
agricultural operations are making
conditions favorable for the increase
of insect pests and at the same time
rendering 1t increasingly difficult for
the Understanding birds to main.
tain their usual numbers. The con.
tinual observance Of these four recon-.
mendations by North Dakota people
will mean the saving Of Thousands Of
dollars worth Of products Of the
farm. garden and orchard every year.
During the year circulars have
been issued calling attention to the
fact that certain Of our native birds
appear to be diminishing in numbers.
This applies particularly to game
birds, but 1t is true also Of some OF

RACES Between
Two BIRD MEN
BiPLANE AND MoNoPLANE WILL
BE At FARGO STATE FAIR. .
Jimmy Ward and George Mesach Dem.
onstrate in tho Air What Can
Be Done in War.

Ever see an aviation race or meet?
If o haven't and want to see the
most thrilling thing that ever took
place in the state of North Dakota, be
at the state fair during the week OF
July %, in the city Of Fargo.
At a huge expense Jimmy Ward, the
famous birdman, who carried the let
ter for General Grant, driving his fifty
horse power Curtiss biplane, Shooting
Star, and George Mesach, the great
French aviator of international repu.
tation, who carried a letter for Post
master General Hitchcock, have been
secured and will drive his Borel-
Mathis m~onoplane in a wild ride to
show the superiority over the Other
machines If he can do so. This will be
q thriller so a as races go.
These two great birdmen are licen-
sed and have an of the tricks Of the
business. They will give a demon
stration here while hundreds of feet
In the air Of the use to which the air
ships will be placed in time of war.
They expect to show how possible II
is to drop from the clouds great
bombs that would almost annihilate
an army. They will fill their gas
tanks and go 1000 or 5000 feet in the
air, and then slide down to earth again
az gently as a bird. They will do all
the dips Of death, and give such a
demonstration rs was never seer In
the northwest before.
These two men have the reputation
Of being the most daring OF all the
birdmen. and as they are looking for
engagements in the northwest they
will do their best to please here.
There will be a ace between the
two. One Of the machines IL known
az q bipiane and the other as a mon
oplane, 30 that 1t will give the people
an opportunity Of seeing the two types
of machines In action.
According to the contract with the
companies that are supplying the ma
chimes the people will have an oppor-
stunity Of gettings close to the airshipa
while they are on the ground, 80 as to
get the very best possible idea Of all
their working parts, and there will be
q constant attendant at their tents to
explain all about them to whoever
may desire to know.
This is something that is we'll worth
coming miles to see and after the first
day the two birdmen will ascend two
or three times each day.

In making up the premium list the
fair management was exceedingly
careful to fix the premiums heavy for
the articles in which the people Of the

could be made.
If you have not received the book
just drop a card to Sec. Frank 8. Tai

in sending o one Of them, and they
are works Of art and worth having.
1t will astonish the average reader
Of this paper to know that the exact
amount Of premiums offered by the
fair people and by special premiums
is $31.49S.
This vast amount is divided up in
this way. For horses there is the sum
Of $3.508, while for cattle, in which the
Better Farming association is much
interested the amount reaches the
great sum of $9,306.
It is hoped that sheep raisers may be

for swine. which is certain to insure q
large exhibit, and poultry will have q
big place in the show. for the sum OF
$1,463 is offered in that department.
Agricultural products will be well

been quite liberal in the way Of pre-.
miums in this department, for the sum

nearly $1,000 offered for the dairy and
dairy products which should assure 8

Indeed DR.. Culver has secured the
greatest bucking animals in the world.
Where others have failed. his cowboys
and cow girls will show the people in
attendance at the North Dakota State

If there is one thing, that the state
