One Of Cheapest and Best Pre-
ventive of Diseases.
Missouri Writer Gives In Detail His
Method Of Using Timber Covered
With Iron Covers to Secure
Slow Burning Of Heap.

Charcoal is one Of the cheapest of
disease preventives that can be fed to
hogs. 1t is especially valuable In win
ter, whether the animals are in the
fattening pens or in the woods lot.
Charcoal can be bought, but this
takes away its cheapness. 1t can be
burned on the farm, and the burning
takes but very little time or labor.
Green or dry timber, corn cobs or
heavy brush can be turned into char
coal.
The method / have used for good
many years is very simple. Along in
the fall and winter. when need more
charcoal for the hogs. dig trench
somewhere between and 10 feet in
length. make it about three feet
wide and about as deep as It Is wide,
says a Missouri writer in the Farm
Progress. II possible, burn the
charcoal in the woods lot near the
timber that am using as this saves
the time and trouble Of hauling the
wood.
/ Pile the trench full Of wood, putting
in enough dry timber to start it
blazing well. Arrange the timber so
you can start the fire near the center
of the trench and at the bottom of the
heap, SO the fire will spread upwards
and to either side through the logs.
Let it blaze pretty strongly, and al
low enough Roadway to reach all
parts OF the heap. want every stick
in the pile to be ablaze before pro-
coed. with the next step.
use big sheets of iron to cover over
the trench after it is thoroughly
ablaze. Several years ago / picked
up three or four old scraper bot
toms, thick, heavy iron plates about
forty-eight inches in width. use
these to cover the trench, laying
them edge to edge, and stopping the
places where they overlap, with wet
clay. This keeps all the heat in, and
the process Of slow burning can go
on underneath them. A little gaseous
smoke and some OF the heat escapes,
but most OF it remains under the
plates.
let this iron-lidded pit stand for a
day or two before removing the
plates. ! hardly ever fail to find about
wagon-bed full of fine charcoal
when open it.
The use of the sheet iron plates
seems to smother the fire just enough
to keep it from burning so freely as
to destroy all the wood fiber. and yet
gives it enough leeway to permit a
slow combustion. OF course, If the
pit is opened too soon the blaze will
leap up again. and all the work will
be for nothing.
In turning corn cobs into charcoal
follow about the same method as
when turning timber into Goals. They
are placed in the pit. started to blaz-
ing, and then checked by being sealed
up under the sheet iron. They char
in about the same thine as timber
As mineral element in hog rations
charcoal is hard to beat. 1t is espe-
cially valuable in stimulating the APP
petite, and in freeing the intestinal
tracts of the animals from various
disturbances.

In which it is seeded. The little feed
which tho alfalfa viii furnish dur
ing the winter is far more Offset by
the decrease in yield.
When young alfalfa receives q
backset it may require two or three
years for it fully to recover. and dur
ing all this time the yields are
smaller than they otherwise would
be. 1t pays to give young alfalfa
careful treatment and to give it every
opportunity to make good develop
