hog raiser who has patch now grow
ing considers himself fortunate.
Last year | sowed an old orchard
with rape late in April. and was sur
prised to see it renew itself two or
three times during the summer in spite
of the dry season. | Kept the hogs
out of it till it was high enough to
hide rabbit, and they were unable
to keep ii down If the hogs are full
grown, it is good policy to keep them
out of the rape patch till 1t is foot
in height. In case they eat it down
the hogs should be taken out of the
field till the rape gets another
growth.
Cowpeas Sown at this time in the
year should furnish very good late
pasture for the hogs. Peas are not of
SO very much value to the hog till the
pods are formed, and are beginning
to ripen just little. Then they are
equal to any ration that has ever been
devised. Rape sown at this time in the
year will come on in plenty of time to
make splendid fall pasture for the
hogs. 1t will serve to get them in the
best possible condition for the heavy
corn feeding that comes little later
in the year.
II is not too late yet for the north
ern farmer to plant pumpkins to be
used as hog feed in the fall. This is
feed that can be raised at very
little cost, and yet will prove very
valuable in the autumn, especially
when pastures are short. always

CLEAN SKIN Of MUCH VALUE
" Pores Are Kept Open Cow Is More
Apt to Be HeaIthy-Use Comb
and Brush Every Day.

Nature has given all living crea-
lures a wonderful covering for the
body. The skin is a most perfect and
yet an exceedingly simple system OF
carrying OF impurity and at the same
time of providing the body with need
ed nourishment from the air, through
the mysterious channels of absorption.
Every cows body is completely COW
cred with this network Of cells. II
these are kept clean and open, so
that they may do their work, the COW
will be more apt to be healthy than
II they become closed. This has been
most strikingly proven by covering
the bodies of animals with a sort OF
varnish which will not admit air, and
the poor creatures soon die, their
heart and lungs being fairly engorged
with blood, Just as would be the case
If they were smothered.
Do We need anything more to prove
that IT stands us in hand to keep the
bodies of our cattle clean by the use
of a brush and comb not now and
then, but every day, regularly? II
this be not done, the pores of the skin
get closed with the dust which is al
ways present in our stables. especially
at this time of the year, when we are
feeding hay and other food that is apt
to fill the air witf4iying particles. At
once the COW begins to suffer. She
cannot digest herSa.6d as she would
otherwise. and she requires more food
and richer food to maintain life in a
good degree.
