words:

in my father"
They were like lead about his heart.

her away from Belmont as quickly as
possible. Words of love must be post

commonplace, until he had finished
his hard task Of persuading her to go

body heat If the young animals are
not properly quartered."

Many of Wisconsin's successful
swine men are raising two filters a
year. They have the necessary equip
ment to have the first filters come
early in the spring and are in position
to give the fall filters the care and
feed which they require for the best
development. Mr.. Fuller and other
swine raisers, who have succeeded in
raising two filters a year, have found
that the fall narrowed pigs demand
special care and attention. If they are
to pay a profit they must be farrowed
early in the fall, the earlier the bet
ter, and if possible, not later than Oc-
tober 1. The sows and fall litters must
be well fed SO that the pigs will be
and the sows rebred shortly for the
spring filters.
Carelessness in feeding and hous.
ing just at the time of nursing the fall
filters may mean, according to Mr..
Fuller, the loss of the profit in the un'
6ertaking. If not properly fed the
pigs become stunted, the sows lose in
flesh and vitality, rebreeding is de-
layed, and the whole scheme of rear.
ing two litters per year fails. During
the nursing period the soWs should be
fed literally on ration consisting OF
45 per cent. corn, barley or rye, 40
per cent. wheat middlings and 10 per
cent. of oil meal, the wheat middlings
and oil meal to be fed as slop.
When the pigs are weaned they
should be continued on this ration to
which they have already become ac'
customed. The feed need not be
cooked, but warm water for mixing
! the slop should be used. The troughs
must be kept free from dirt and pre-
vented from becoming sour or stale.
The pigs must be accommodated in
comfortable quarters.
Carelessness in handling the brood
sows during the fall and winter
months is responsible for more of the
losses in hog raising than is commonly
supposed. Sows which are not re
quired to raise fall filters, but which
have been kept upon maintenance
ration largely of forage after their
spring litter are weaned, should at this
season of the year be given little
grain or thin slop with which to i'm
prove their condition. When fed a
little grain, they usually settle" more
uniformly and should gain slowly in
weight during the pregnant period. A
medium flesh condition during this
time is most desirable for satisfactory
results.
The herd boar, kept largely upon a
maintenance ration during the sum
mer, must be fed literally during the
breeding season and be given abun
dant exercise. The run of blue grass
pasture of about one-half acre in ex
tent supplemented with a growing ra
ton similar to that fed growing pigs
should prove ideal.
Pork production can be made profit
able If proper feed and care be given
the herd as needed.

TO LEARN OF ALFALFA
Farmers of Barry County viii Seek
instruction From Expert and
His Assistants.

Convinced by experience that thous-

grown in Barry county II the farmers
were properly educated in methods
of growing, members of the Hastings
Grange have started a movement to
secure the services Of Prof. p. G. Hold
en- and his assistants who have been
making the alfalfa campaign" In the
western part OF the state.
For number of years many acres
OF alfalfa have been grown in small
patches in Barry county. At first the
farmers scoffed at the experiments,
but the fact that the alfalfa growers
gathered in the dollars for several
crops annually has induced many to
start experimental fields. Much OF the
soil in this county Is adapted for al.
falfa growing. and all that is neces-
sary to develop 1t Is knowledge Of
methods and enterprise.

The tax levy for 1913 and 1914 will
exceed the figures Of the past two
years by $l,S46,000. according to sta
tistics compiled by Auditor General

The state tax for this year will be
$500, 387.02 and for 1914 1t will be
s5.715, 609.59, making a total OF $14,-
o94, 1861.
However. Auditor Fuller points out
that there are several causes. In the
first place, Ex-Governor Osborn lop-
ped several hundred thousand off the
appropriations Of two years ago and
as a result the state institutions de-
manded more this year.
Then, TOO, three new institutions
were added. The Bay City house of
correction cost 100000, the epileptic
colony farm 100000 and the Midland
