Dirty Hog Yards.

Have YOU ever noticed the difference
In the thrift of the animals In feed lots
on neighboring farms where two farmers,
apparently equally good feedsrs-as far
as the rations which they fed-were en-
gagged in feeding live stock for the mar
ket?
"Yes," you will say, "I have" and
you will perhaps add, "but don't know
how to account for that difference. for
Nsighbor John feeds just a. good Is
Nsighbor Joe. In fact, / believe ne
feeds more grain to his hogs than John
does. He never lets bis hogs 60 hungry
away from the trough, though OF course
Joe never does that, either"
That may be true, but haven't you no
ticed the difference In the condition ot
their feed lots? Look at the mud In
Johns feed yard where the hogs must
wade about belly deep 10 get at the
trough. The only dry spot 10 1t Is that
far corner where the remains OF an oio
straw stack afford them . dry place 10
sleep when IL isn't raining. Then take a
look at Joe's yard, nice and high and
dry all over, with q good shelter back
there for the hogs to be warm and dry In
during any kind of weather.
"But can that make such diner

Eyery Farm Has Climatic Zones.

"There are climatic zones on every
farm that need to be studied and taken
advantage Of, just as slight peculiarities
In plants and animals are studied and
taken advantage of in breeding" says
Eric r. Miller, United States weatherfore-
caster at the University Of Wisconsin, In
an article In tho Journal Of Geography.
Different soils have the power to pro.
duce local differences In temperature,
continues Mr.. Miller. This 10 largely
due to the power to absorb heat and to
the power to give out heat by radiation.
A good absorbsr Is good radiator, and
a poor absorber il poor radiator. The
tenn perature changes in the soil are very
much modified by the state Of the atmos.
phere above them. Clouds, dust, and
fog intercept both incoming and out
going radiation 20 that the range OF tenn
perature of the soil cannot be 90 great.
Clouds and fog act as blanket, for they
reflect back, and radiate back the heat
sent out from the ground, and thus pre-
vent the temperature from falling so low
IS it does on clear nights, when there 10
nothing to turn back or replenish the
heat given out by the soil.
The exposure Of . slope to the sun
shine is q factor of great importance, for
the intensity of sunlight 10 greatest on .
surface on which It falls vertically.
Full advantage of this Is taken In Europe
where the north banks of the valleys are
terraced and planted In vineyards which
could not survive the colder climate Of
the level ground.
The climate Of this country ID marked
by greater variability than 10 that OF Eu-
rope, 90 that 1t 10 often important to null
lify the effect of unreasonable warm
spells In spring. To this end, orchards
are planted on north slopes to retard
blossoming in spring because the climate
there is colder than on level ground.
A lake IL Of great importance In regu:.
lating the temperature OF the land
around, for It takes more heat to warm
a given quantity Of water to any stated
number of degrees than to warm the
same quantity of any other substance to
the Same lumber of degrees. Similarly,
the same quantity Of heat will have less
effect in heating water than any other
"a ubstance, the Same quantities being con-
sidered. It results from this that the
shores Of lake experience less extremes
of heat and cold than do places away
from bodies of water. The summers are
not 20 hot, nor are tho winters 20 cold.

Prevention Better than Cure.

There are very few herds Of hogs that
do not suffer from parasites-external or
internal, or both. No ono would argue
that hog could do its best when bother
cd with lice or worms, but comparative
ly few think that these pests may serious.
~ affect profits. They may not aheot
profits to an appreciablo extent when
they are not present In excessive num-
bers; the herd may 90 on for years with
on. being seriously affected BY them,
but . time favorable to the parasites
will come when they will infest tho
little pigs to such an extent that tho
loss will be plain. Itpays to DO always
on tho watch for these little "prof't eat.
ers," and do something to get rid OF
them when they are found. Preventive
measures are always best to control
worms or lice.
