Conditions should determine which
Of the above crops to use for best re-
suits when their respective grazing
periods are identical. For instance,
barley, wheat, oats and rye may be
sown INTERCHANGEABLE on land of me-
dunn fertility. The cost and availa-
bility of seed should largely determine
which to use. On poor land however,
rye should have the preference, and
on rich land barley will give much the
best results.
With respect to cowpeas and soy
beans, soy beans should always have
the preference, because they have a
much wider range of dates of seeding,
and of period of grazing. They are
richer in protein, more palatable, and
stand up better on the ground; hence
are easier cultivated, require much
less seed per acre, and yield heavier.
At least three different varieties of
soy beans should be used. The Ito
San is the earliest maturing, and when
planted May 1st, will be ready for
grazing July 10th. The Haberlandt
planted May LIST, will be ready for
grazing July goth. On poor land the
Acme variety will do better for this
second planting than the Haberlandt.
The Mammoth Yellow will be ready
for grazing by Aug. 10th. This gives
a succession of pastures ranging from
Iuly 10 until frost, by varying the

The cost of producing pork on the
farm can be reduced from one-thlrd to
one-haIf by making a larger use OF the
great variety of crops that can be
grown and which the hogs relish. Corn
is the most important and most gen.
orally used hog feed, and will likely
continue to hold its position in all
practical rations. But corn alone is
not rich enough in protein and mineral
matter to supply the proper proportion
Of nutrients for muscle and bone build
ing. It's excessive use tends to dimin-
sh the strength of bone, retards the
growth of frame, and induces exces-
sive fat. These effects may be obvi-
ated by supplementing the corn with
any of the commonly grown nitro
genous feeds, of which we have such
great variety In this connection
pastures should be used as much as
possible, as they furnish the cheapest
source of protein and mineral matter,
and also give bulkiness to the ration.
Maintaining the Breeding Herd.
Pastures furnish the only profitable
basis for handling hogs the year round.
The sows and herd boar can be kept
in fine condition on good leguminous
pasture with the addition of a corn
ration equal to l per cent of their live
weight. without pasture 3 per cent
to 4 per cent of their weight In dry
feed will be required, and of this ra-
ton not more than one-half should
ever be corn.
Corn may be supplemented satisfac-
torily, so far as the animals needs are
concerned, by heterogeneous concen-
trates, such as shorts, bran, soy beans,
cowpeas, tankage, cotton seed meal,
and skim-milk. But these feeds are
now so high in price that it is rarely
possible to get market price for corn
when fed.
If concentrates must be used, corn
should never be fed alone. Skim-milk
is very valuable supplement to corn,
and when available should be fed in
the proportion of one part of corn to
three parts of skim-milk. Other con-
centrates should be fed in the proper
ton of about one part shorts or bran
to three parts of corn; one part of
tankage to nine parts of corn, and one
part of cotton seed meal to six parts
of corn. If cotton seed meal is fed, it
must be fed in connection with cop
peras water. (The method Is explain
ed later in this paper.) Cowpeas and
soy beans are now so high in price
for seed that they can not be widely
used as feed, but as they get to be
more commonly grown they should
come into general use as supplements
to corn. They should be finely ground |
and fed in the proportion of about one
part of cowpea or soy bean meal to six |
parts of corn,
The SOW should receive nothing but |
water for twenty-four hours after far |

milk or slop of skim-milk and shorts |
If no skim-milk is available, she may /
be fed a slop containing four parts of |
cornmeal with one part of shorts, cow
pea or soy bean meal She should be
gradually brought up to full feed SO
that at the end of one month she will |

dates OF, seeding. The Tokyo variety
may be used in place of the Mammoth
Yellow with excellent results. The
Mammoth Yellow is the most satisfac-
tory in the mixture of corn and soy
beans, as they mature well together.
The combination of corn and soy
beans is held in high favor in sec
lions where it has been tried.
Finishing For Market.
Hogs that have been grown prin-
cipally on grazing crops should be fed
twenty-five or thirty days before they
are sent to market. When they come
off the pasture they are in good con-
dition to make cheap gains for short
time and their frames are not as well
covered with fat as the butcher likes
to see. Until recently it has
not been advisable to feed cot
ton seed meal for periods of
longer than twenty-five days, but re-
cent Investigations have developed a
method by which 1t can be fed without
any harmful effects. The method con-

ON BEHALF OF THE BABY
Health Department Sets Down Rules,
Which. if Carried Out. Will
Lessen Infant Mortality.

Heat is reaping the annual harvest OF
babies in Washington. according to a
statement made by the District health
department yesterday.
But IL the rules set down by that
bureau for the caring and feeding OF
babies during the hot months are carried
out the infant mortality can be lessened.
Plenty of fresh air is the first rule laid
down for mothers and nurses to follow.
On the necessity of keeping milk clean
and cool the department gives out the
following:
pure, cold and unadulterated milk, de-
livered in bottles to the home, should be
insisted upon. 1t should at once be put
into a cold refrigerator. where 1t should
be kept, unopened until needed, at q
temperature not above IS degrees.
IF the baby is bottle fed, the feeding
bottles and nipples, after using, should
be washed in hot water and thoroughly
cleaned and then scalded-"
Dress the baby in light, airy clothing,
keep it in shady places where there is a
good, free circulation Of air, and cover
with mosquito netting to guard 1t from
the, germ-laden fly. Give frequently a
little cool. but not chilled water that has
