WHAT GOOD FARMING MEANS
Thorough Flowing, Narrowing, Drain.
age and the Like, Removes Much
Fertility From Soil.

After all, when farming is basically
wrong In principle, the poorer the
work the better for the farm. Good.
thorough farming In such things as
blowing, narrowing. drainage. and the
like, will remove from the soil more
fertility than poor farming will take
out. Unless the nitrogen Is restored
by legumes in the rotation. the phos-
phorus by phosphates. and perhaps
the sulphur by sulphates and the
potash where needed, the thorough"
farmer will destroy the lands value
while, perhaps. enriching himself for
a few years. He will feed the chill
dren and starve the grandchildren.
Good. frequent shallow cultivation
of corn will exhaust the soil faster
than the old system precisely because
1t grows better crops. 1t will not do
so for long. Taking of a great crop
may be a fine thing; but how much
finer to take 1t off with the knowledge
of what its production has done for
the soil and the determination to re-
pay to the land what 1t has lent us.

NOTES OF THE DAIRY.

The best dairyman is clean, not
because he has to be, but because 1t
Is second nature for him to be.
The dairy COW has a capacity for
a great amount OF feed and unless
this feed Is provided she cannot do
her best.
Milking the cows clean and care
fully has a tendency to develop a per-
sistent habit of yielding milk.
Many dairymen are giving their
cows simply a maintenance ration. and
then complain because there Is no
profit in dairying. Such dairymen
don't deserve to succeed.
Iron milking stools are recommend
ed, and they should be kept clean.
Cats and dogs must be excluded
from the stables during the time of
milking.
All milk from cows 60 days before
and 10 days after calving must be
rejected.
II any part Of the milk is bloody or
stringy or unnatural in appearance.
the entire amount should be rejected.

RAT WEARS WEDDING RING
Rodent Killed Carries Gold Band Lost
by Woman Years Ago-6ears
Date Of 1890.

Bloomington. m.-Wallace Fauber. 4
farmer Of Woodford county. was pitch.
ing hay when a rat ran out of the
stack. He transfixed 1t with the tines
of the fork.
He was struck by the peculiar shape
Of the rat. 1t was deformed about the
neck and shoulders. giving 1t the ap-
pearance Of a kangaroo in miniature.
Inspection revealed a ring around its
neck. and when removed the inscrip
ton, "F. 8. to NJ. S.. Sept. 26. $780,"
was visible.
The theory is that a former tenant
on the farm. Mrs. Frank Swaider, lost
the ring. and that the rat when small
had inserted its head through the ring
and was unable to dislodge 1t.
II this is the case the rat wore the
ring for sixteen years. An effort II
being made to locate Mrs. Swaider.

Perhaps you have often heard OF

II you are observant you may have
noticed in passing some Of the freight

Necessity for Salt.

All farm animals have an instructive
craving for salt. II 1t is so placed
as to be always within their reach,
they will consume just as much as
they need, and no more. 1t Is only
when 1t has been kept from them for
a long period that there is danger Of
their eating too much. 1t is. therefore.
an excellent practice to keep it in a
box or boxes where they can have &C
cess to it whenever they desire.
When they are sailed. as is the prac-
tice with many farmers, only once q
week, while some may get enough
others may suffer from a deficient
supply. Salt promotes an active cir
culation Of the blood. which never be-
comes thick and sluggish so long as
the supply Is plentiful; 1t assists d.
gestion. and is often a preventive Of
disease. 1t Is SO cheap that no stock
raiser can really afford 70 deny to his
animals all y a. ~a~t ~ It

SKllLFUL FEEDING OF SWINE
Most important Item In Profitable Hog
Rearin0-Should BE Fed All
Animal VII Consume.

A basic principle in hog raising.
which has been proven by long ex-
per1ments, 10 that every pound OF
grain in live weigh requires more
feed to produce 1t than the preceding
pound. This. says Swine Breeders
Journal. means that there IL . gradual
increase in the quality Of feed con
sumed for every cons ecutive pound OF
gain In live weight.
A certain amount Of feed II required
to maintain q hog. Any gain which
the animal may make requires food In
exces of the food Of maintenance or
that food required to keep the hog
without gain or loss In weight. 80 1t
Ia plain that the Led the number OF
days in the f~attening period the less
will be the cost Of maintenance during
that period. The o Of maintenance
Is a dead loss and 20 should be re.
duced to q minimum. For this reason
the hog should be fed all that he will
consume during that period.
The food should BE- varied and salt
and ashes places Be fore them often
to keep their digestiv We tract In order
and prevent digestive troubles. Char
coal is very valuable for tho hog and
should be given to him at least once
a week. Mixed grains have been
found to be more economical than
pure single grain feeds.
Skillful feeding 10 the most impor-
tant item in successful hog raising. II
properly fed the hog will prove the
old saying. Pretty ID % pretty does"
This has surely been true Of the Amer

COST OF PORK PRODUCTION
II Pays Handsomely to Take Especial
Care Of the Piss-Wa Prod
uct 10 Utilized.

II is the practice Of many small
farmers who live in Southern West
Virginia to buy n or two pigs each
year and feed them scraps from the
table and in addition buy wheat mid
dlings sufficient to keep them grow
ing rapidly-from start to finish.
They thus utilize q b%y-product that
would otherwise be wasted.
Not many people keep an exact &C
count OF the cost Of feed purchased.
However. they seem to be pretty sure
that the practice pays them fair profit
else there would not be such q de-
mand for young pigs for feeding. I
got some figures from u local mer-
chant that give a pretty accurate &C
count Of the cost of the feed bill and
tie value Of two pigs at killing time.
says a writer in an exchange.
The pigs fed in this experiment
were high-grade Chester Whites and
we're purchased at about six weeks
old. They were April pigs and were
slaughtered at hear December 1. the
next fall; so that they were near
eight months old when slaughtered.
Here is the account az given me:
Two pigs, 81 each. -; 500 pounds
Of wheat middlings at 81 per 100. SO.
Total cost of hogs and feed. $14.
When they were slaughtered n of
them weighed 104 pounds and the
other 1876. Pork was worth 10 cents
per pound in the local market, so we
have $40 pounds Of pork at 10 cents
1890; less cost Of production. $14.
leaves q profit Of 5000.
Another point in this experiment Is
that the man from whom these pigs
were purchased did not take any spe-
cial care Of the mates Of these two
pigs. but allowed them to pick up
their OWE living until fall and fed
them enough corn to put them in pork
condition and killed them. They av'
eraged in weight from IS to = pounds
each-not half the weight OF the
w~ell-cared-for pigs.
