Pigs that are pushed and kept grow

duces the danger of loss from disease

however, is that II is not necessary to

not grow during the cold weather-at
least they do not under ordinary farm
conditions.
A mighty big factor in securing
growth is to provide good shade. In
the natural wild state hogs lived in
the shade. The very anatomy of the

THE PIGS IN SUMMER.
Importance Of Furnishing Forage For
the Growing Porksrs.

Importance Of Furnishing Forage For
the Growing Porksrs.
The late summer season is a trying
time upon pigs. Green pasturage is
likely to be at it's poorest at that time,
writes II. q. Mccartney in the Nation
al Stockman. Crops that are most sue
culent and appetizing early in the
spring and late in the fall have habit
of practically dying down during the
summer time. On the writer's home
farm large blue grass pasture was
used for years. For about six weeks
each summer it was about as bare of
green feed as the stubble fields adjoin-
ing it.
There are several different crops that
will supply summer feed. Alfalfa that
grows through the whole season is no
doubt the peer of all other permanent
crops. A mixture of oats. peas and
rape or oats. clover and rape has prov
ed to be about the most satisfactory
when the ability to furnish green feed
during the summer is considered. The
writer recently read of an experiment
station test where the amount Of gain
made on hogs from different kinds OF
forage was compared. Very surpris-
ing and striking differences were CIV
en-. From blue grass less than 400
pounds of pork was made per acre in
the entire season. From alfalfa about
$50 pounds of gain were reported. The
greatest of all was from the mixed
crop of oats. clover and rape. More
than 800 pounds of pork per acre was
reported.
There is another strong reason be-
sides the greater amount of gain Sc
cured for raising crops that are green
in the summer. The pigs must not be

CLEAN DAIRY UTENSILS.

To Keep Products Pure They Should
Be Stsrilizsd Every Day.
If the dairyman is to keep his dairy
utensils absolutely clean he must ster-
ilize them daily. This is just as neces-
sary in the small dairy as in the large
one. The dairyman who milks only
few cows cannot afford an expensive
equipment in his dairy room. Many
who do a profitable but modest busi-
ness believe that a sterilizer Is an ex-
pensive luxury. Such is not the case.

AS late as 1900 he was still mixing

Americans may change the name of

Ncknames for baseball clubs and

the subject Of a new name is as fol-
lows:
Wouldn't it be a good idea to call
our team the New Works instead OF
the H%iehlanders. Yankees, Hilltops.
