Economist ON Feed

Extracts from Breeders Gazette Dee.
IL, 1913: At the Sherman ranch the
htters of bunch of thirty sows were
divided evenly, to one lot was given the
regular pig growing ration; to the other
lot the same feed with the addition of a
little DlGESTER TANKAGE daily. -
These pigs were weighed July 8,
after being on, the feeds for thirty
days, those receiving tankage weighed
1919 pounds each while those not re-
eeiving tankage weighed 14.2 pounds
each. On Nov. Is the same pigs were
weighed again and those that were hav.
ing tankage with their regular feed
weighed lila pounds, while those that
received no tankage only 65.l pounds
each. This showed gain of 95.5
pounds for each hog receiving tan
kage against 500 pounds for each of the
hogs not receiving tankage'
The owner says: 1.-THE growth and
thrift of the tankage fed hogs, the alb.
senee of runts, and the uniformity of
The lot was quite noticeable. Soon after
commencing, the pigs having tankage
were much thriftier, their appetites
were better, were more satisfied, stood
the hot weather better and in every
way looked better. It seems to satisfy
the craving for stimulating protein
and bone building phosphates, which
elements are not supplied in the pro.
per proportion in our ordinary grain
foods. The hog by nature is a semi.
carniyorous animal and anything with
a meat flavor or containing meat
touches its appetite

FORM PIG CLUB.

Twelve boys at Winchester, ranging
in age from IA to Is years, have form
ed a society known as the Winchester
Pig club, under direction of Miss c.
Censki, secretary of the Craig Mountain
Lumber company. Professor f. J. Id
dings, head of the animal husbandry de-
partment of the University of Idaho,
has taken charge of the technical side
of the clubs work. According to w.
Fl. DIN of Boise, who had charge of
the university IS recent live stock spe-
cial, this organization of boys is doing
a great deal of good in advancing the
live stock industry in that section. Mr..
DIN said: Each member of the club
has been presented by Miss Censki with
a. female pig, and the boys are being en-
couraged to study their pets, so that
they may learn the science of breeding
desirable types. They will be taught
scientific feeding also, and will be in
structed in growing the best feed for
their animals that can be raised on
the cut-over lands of that altitude
They also will be encouraged in raising
animals for competitive exhibitions at
the Lewiston annual live stock shows,
and we may have them in body at our
lectures and demonstrations. We re-
gard the club, the only one of it's kind
in the northwest, as one of the best
methods of keeping the boys interested
in farm work,

When the Hamlin mail man tn,ot-
ted up over the little hill near the
Rose Valley school noe day last
week the horses came to a very sud
den standstill, threw up their
heads and began to look fearfully
at a great white SNOWFALL THAT the
children had rolled up and left by
the roadside. 1t loomed up in the
fog like a great white ghost and it
was very easy to imagine that it
was moving. All at once the horses
began to back then sirot off at
right angles to the route. The mail
man lunged through the side
the horses heads. On his way his
feet came in contact with a smsaller
SNOWFALL which he had failed to OBJ
serve. His head traded places with
his feet, then thy traded back a.
gain. By this time he found himself
lying on the broad of his back look
ing up at the old mares bellyband.
He kicked and struck, and tore
and yelled and made such fuss
that the horses forgot all about
the ghostlyy SNOWFALL and stood wat
ing their masters crazy performance
as If to say, well, what are you
scared at?" They stood quietly thus
until the mail man had regained his
feet and composure. He then led
them slowly up to the big SNOWFALL
which he kicked to pieces, climbed
into his wagon and went w1histling
homeward.
