FEEDING HOGS new CORN

Many farmers in the corn belt asso

And the belief is common in some To-

cause the disease. This may indirect

encourage the thriving Of any latent
disease germs.
1t 10 undeniable that hogs appear to
be more generally afflicted with dis.
ease about the time new corn Is made
use of, but an examination might show
that such condition is rather to be
expected. The hogs greatly relish the
new, soft. succulent corn, and, II per.
mitted to do 30, will eat enough to
change their probable constipation to
acute diarrhoea. This puts them in
condition quite susceptible to disease

The Minnesota experiment station
made two-year test of "hogging or
corn. From this test and from the
experience of farmers in that and
other states they draw the following
conclusions:
~ Pork was produced with less
grain by hogging off corn than by
feeding ear corn in yards.
(2) Hogs fed in the field gained
nearly one-third more rapidly than
those fed in yards.
81 The cost of fencing corn fields
may be from 81 to $3.50 less per acre
than the cost Of husking the corn.
az The slower lost In following this
method was in many cases not worth
the cost of saving 1t.
(5) 1t requires no more labor to
prepare for subsequent crops fields
that have been hogged off than those
that have been treated by the usual
method of harvesting.

field than when fed in the yards. They
pick the corn as clean as most men
do in husking.

(S) Labor in caring for hogs is not

(9) 1t is not expected that all corn
raised be fed off with hogs, but the
they can clean up from the |
time it is nicely glazed until the
weather becomes unfavorable may be
very economically fed in this way.
(10) Hogs should not, as a rule, be
turned into more corn at one time
than they can eat up clean in two or
three weeks. The shorter period is
preferable.

can relieve the situation by harvest
ing the corn for himself. Under ordi
nary conditions this method is being
adopted with great deal of satisfac
ton. This practice of turning swine
into portion of the field to gather
the corn they eat, which is termed
"hogging off, or "hogging down." was
formerly much condemned as a shift
less or lazy procedure. But it has
grown in favor and many find it good
farm economy when rightly managed
especially through the saving OF
labor.
1t is not advisable toy turn hogs into
the entire field, nor to allow them &C.
cess to the corn too early, as the
grain will not then have the feeding
value 1t has after fully mature. The
hogs are liable to the ailments that
may come from using green corn.
Maturity" does not, however, neces-
sarily mean that the corn must be
flinty, or even hard.
Before hogs are put on full feed on
new corn they should be prepared for
it by gradual introduction. This may
be done by giving them green corn,
stalks and ears, in increasing quaint
ties, along with their dry feed. Thus
the change from old to new feed or
!.'cn dry to fresh feed is not made so
rapidly that the hogs suffer- If they
IRE turned into an acre or two at a
time, or not more than they can clear
up in a period of two weeks, best re-
suits will be secured. The portion of
the field set aside for them may be
separated from the rest by a tempo
rary fence or hurdles. A wire fence
with temporary posts located as want
ed is sometimes used, but wire fenc-
ing is difficult to handle in heavy
corn.

new corn can be fed without danger,
but judgment must be used or the
worst results may follow. In feeding
horses each animal receives it's allow.
ance, and it is only by carelessness
that a horse fed in stall could re.
ceive an undue allowance. But in
feeding herd of hogs there are al.
ways some more ravenous than 9TH
ers, and it requires the utmost care
Dto prevent a part OF them from get
ting more than their proportionate
share.
This being the case, and 1t being
impossible to feed each separately as
with horses, it naturally follows that
other feed must be given in connec.
ton with new corn.
In feeding new corn there should be
no sudden change from the former
ration, but it should be added so grad
ually as to cause no arrangement in
the digestive organs. Hogs fed new
corn are liable to be affected with
worms, and hardwood ashes, charcoal
and salt are all efficient in destroying
them and preventing their increase.

TELLS AFTER FIFTY YEARS
Haunted by Faces, st. Louisan Confesses
Tennessee Murders.

st. Louis, Mo.-Haunted by the faces
of two men whom he shot and killed q
half century ago, and fearing that tha
slow torture of growing blindness is the
fnlfiilment of curse put on him by one
of his victims, James d. Burton, alias
Hanehan, 81 years old, has decided to
make his peace with the world and seek
to ease his conscience by giving to the
world true and correct statement Of
the circumstances surrounding the shoot
ing ARRAYS.
Hanehan tells Of meeting girl in
Clarksville, Tenn, with whom he be-
came infatuated. AS result of this
infatuation he qnarreled with another
suitor of hers named Michael Carney,
and in q shooting that followed, killed
Carney. He says he was acquitted on a
plea of self-defense
Later friends OF Carney tried to trap
him, and he killed Frank Mcclure. He
says that he was indicted and placed on
bond. He jumped his bond, and says
that he has wandered over the country
since, but that the Indictment at Clarks-
vile still stands against him, although
he shot in self-defense.
