SYSTEM FOR MARKING PIGS
Best Method 10 Making hotehes In
Ears and Having Each Notch Rep
resent Definite Number.
by GEORGE MoRRIsD

by GEORGE MoRRIsD
When a farmer raises pigs for sale
as breeders. he should have a definite
system OF marking each litter. There
are several methods of doing this. OF
which perhaps the best consists OF
making notches in the ears and hav-
ing each notch represent definite
Aumber.
By means of the following method
as many as a hundred litters may be
marked with not to exceed four
notches In the ears of each pig. For
example: Let a notch on the lower
edge OF the left ear represent No. l:
ON the same edge near the tip. No. 10;
on the upper edge of the same ear
near the tip. No. 20. On the right
ear, lower edge near the head, let the
notch represent No. 3; and on the
same edge near the tip. No. 80; on
the upper edge of the same ear. No.
s; and on the same edge near the tip.
No. so. This system is easy to re
member All you have to keep in
mind is that No. 1 is on the left ear
near the head and No. 5 just above it

great western railroad system re-
Gently got into line with the modern
movement In announcing a pension
plan for disabled employees. An east
ern system was the pioneer to adopt
such plan. Its pension system went
into effect in 1884 and It has about
700 pensioners on the rolls.
In the next decade the movement
grew until almost all the leading
railroads had adopted It. Several OF
the great Industrial concerns Of the
country have undertaken the same
recognition of faithful service.
All these plans are encouraging
evidence of growing appreciation
of the fact that the maintenance OF
employees is a legitimate part OF the
expense Of conducting business. But
they cannot be depended on to solve
the problem of old age dependency.
However great their merits. they can
touch only a fraction Of the workers
Of the country. The great bulk OF
the business organizations are not in
a position to provide annuities.
Actuaries have figured that of 1000
men living at the age OF 20. 500 will
be living at the age OF 65. But eco

on the upper edge. and that on the
right ear No. 3 is on the lower edge
near the head and No. is Just above
It on the upper edge Near the tips
the numbers are just ten times al
large as those near the head.
Each pig OF litter No. l should have
the notch on the upper edge of tht
s4ma, ear, those of number three
should have the notch on the lower
edge of the right ear near the head
those of No. should have a notch or
the lower edge of both ears near the
head. By following this system any

MUCH DIRT IN PINT OF MILK
Factory Operators and MIX Dealers
0lven Chance to See Amount
Of Filth In Bottle.

The milk sediment test described In
q newly issued circular OF the college
Of agriculture Of the University of
Wisconsin gives factory operators and
milk dealers a chance to show each
farmer the amount OF dirt In a pint of
his milk. This Is an index to the con.
ditions under which the milk has
been produced.
The test shows whether the milk Is
Mt for direct consumption. or for use
in making butter or cheese. Dirty
milk is not only dangerous from the
bye,enic standpoint, but 1t Is likely to
produce poor quality In dairy prod.
ucts. thus causing serious loss A. C.
Baer. the author of the circular feels
confident that when h farmer actually
sees how dirty his milk Is. he will
keep his cows. stables and utensils
clean.
This test was first developed in this
country by the dairy department of
the college. and is now extensively
used in the United States by city milk
dealers and boards of health

PROGRESS OF DAIRY BREEDS
Long Line Of Ancestors Of Good Char
aeter on Both Sides Of Family
10 Quite Sufficient.
tBy W. r. GTLBERT.)


Although the general run OF dairy
cows are Of no definite breeding. they
are not necessarily the worse for that
Good dairy quality Is a natural char
acteristic which is hereditary In an
eminent degree. A long line Of an
cestors OF dairy character on both
sides of the family tree Is quite suffi-
cient to insure good dairy quality Of
the offspring.
Dairy character has been developed
by careful selection. 1t is not a quail
ity originally inherent in any one
breed. although some breeds prove
themselves more amenable to the in
fuence OF selection than others.
Dairy farmers are fully alive to the
importance of heredity in this respect,
and although they favor cattle OF GER
tain breeds. they fight shy Of cattle
Of those breeds from pedigreed herds.
This is because they have found that
pedigree bulls In many instances get
calves far Inferior in dairy quality to
the calves of locally bred bulls.
The influence of an unsuitable bull
Is very far.reaching. for his heifers
do not show OF what they are capable
until three years after his introduc-
tion.
During these three years that bull,
II he is a wrong one, will have been
destroying the dairy character that
probably took many years to estab-
iish.
The reason why pedigree bulls in
the past have failed as popular sires
In the dairy herds Is to be attributed
to a great extent to the cattle shows.
Breeders Of bulls for sale. naturally
look to the show yards for publicity
and success to bring their cattle un.
