rains make it necessary to floor this
outside pen, hence it must necessarily
be quite small. In Eastern Oregon and
Eastern Washington such flooring is
not required, and the pens may there
fore be quite large, even large enough
to be called pastures. If the house
can be built adjoining good alfalfa
field part of the pens could be made
about an acre in size and the remainder
merely small lots. It is not necessary,
however, to have a separate pasture
for each SOW.
Types Of Buildings.
In order to best meet the require
ments set forth above, and at the same
time make the cost Of the building as
small as possible, the style of building
shown in the illustration is recommend
ed. A house Of this kind may best be
constructed Of what is commonly called
"box" construction, that is, the walls
are made of common lumber nailed YER
tically. The only framing required is
2x4 scantling crosswise at the top,
bottom and center, together with a
similar scantling placed upright on each
side of the doors. In Western Oregon
the cracks need not be battened unless
on the exposed side, and then only
rarely. The house will be sufficiently
warm without battens and will be much
better ventilated, and ventilation is
quite problem in the rainy winters
of Western Oregon and Washington, as
the air seems to circulate slowly in
the damp weather In Eastern Oregon
and Washington the cracks should be
battened, in most cases. 1t is not neces.
sary to make the house warmer than
this, however, as additional warmth
cannot be secured except at the ex
pense of fresh air. Wealthy stockmer
sometimes build houses of stone, con
crete, brick, double boards with saw
dust between, and similar forms in
tended to afford the greatest possible
amount of warmth and to exclude thu
wind. Then in order to prevent thu
hog from suffering from foul air they
put in such an extensive ventilating
system that the building is no warme
than if it had been more simply con
structed. In other words, they hav,
wasted their money. 1t must be dis
tinctly understood that there is limi
to the warmth that may be obtained il
a building not provided with artificial
heat and still maintain a satisfactor,
circulation, and between cold air an,
foul air the cold air is the lesser evil

Portable for the hogs. For Wester

with the same material, and the floo
made continuous with that Of the il
side pen. The entire floor should hav
about four inches slope from the. cer

ter to the outside. This will facilitate
drainage, and in cleaning, the floor may
be swept from the inside pen to the
outside pen. In Eastern Oregon and
Washington the floor for the outside
pens is unnecessary, while for the In
side pens boards will be about the best,
although where the ground 10 well
drained and the hogs are not too close
ly confined, dirt floor will do very
well. 1t is much less expensive and
much warmer than any sort Of artificial
floor. Where hogs are allowed consid-
erable freedom they will usually leave
their droppings outside Of the house,
and thus the house will require very
little cleaning. One pen at the end
of the house may be partitioned off
for the storage Of feed.
The small individual houses are large
lily used in the corn belt where there
is much danger from disease, especially
cholera. By having number OF these
houses in different pens any outbreak
Of disease will be confined to ono lot,
and will not affect the entire herd.

III gage lifters," and after they have
lifted all the mortgages from the
farms they will assist in building up
more modern farm homes and contribute
more to the general upbuilding of
rural community than perhaps other
animals upon the farm In view OF the
fact that the hog, when properly han
died, is a profitable animal, it is a
somewhat Of mystery why farmers in
the Northwest have not given more
attention to the growing of swine.
Market values for some time have been
very encouraging; in fact, the local
supply does not by any means meet
the demand.
It is estimated that $6,OO0,0O0 worth
of live hogs have been brought to the
Northwest during the past year. This
would seem to be almost a travesty
upon the agriculture of the state, when
we consider the abundant opportunities
for the economical production of swine.
Market conditions promise to be good
for some time. The large and modern
packing plants at North Portland will
always be an active factor in maintain
ing a stable market for all of the hogs
produced in the Northwest. Thus the
farmer may have little fear as to the
ultimate outcome Of the industry.
Equipment.
Success in growing hogs does not de-
pend upon the expenditure of large
sum of money in buildings, neverthe-
less they should be kept comfortable
and not be exposed to cold and rain.
The hog is perhaps the most sensitive to
cold of all farm animals. On many
farms there are old sheds or other un.
used buildings which may be made to
shelter few sows and thus enable
the beginner to get start without in
vesting any capital in buildings. Where
the industry is conducted upon a large
scale and is expected to be more OF
less permanent such makeshifts are
usually unsatisfactory. They are in
convenient and generally unsanitary
hence success in the industry without
proper buildings is scarcely to be ex
pected. Hog houses are of two classes
the large or centralized, and the in
dividual, or colony house. The former
is intended to shelter the entire herd
while the latter accommodates only ont
SOW and her litter, and thus necessi
tates as many houses as there are sows
There are many types of large houses
but the simpler ones are usually tn
better. Each SOW in the herd should b.
provided with tightly boarded pei
inside of the house. Each pen shoul'
be about 8 by 10 feet, and should hav
a window and door opening to the out
side. This door should be full height
Doors just high enough to admit tn
hogs are a nuisance. There should b
no passage ways for hogs through whic
the attendant cannot pass with ease
Each pen should be connected on tn
inside with a feed alley, so that tn
feeding may be done under cover an
without the necessity of entering th
pens. There should be door from tn
pen into the alley, and if this door ca
be Of the same width as the alley, s
that it will swing across to close th
alley, SO much the better. On the out
side there should be small pen cor
nected with the inside pen, at least a
large as the inside pen, and as muc
larger as can be made without too gres
an expense. In Western Oregon an

GERMANS PRESSING
ON PARIS TODAY
(By F. P. Merrick.)

Paris, Sept. 1.-Exactly forty-four
years after the battle of Sedan, the
German army is pressing relentlessly
upon Paris today from the north.
The war Office issued an official
statement, admitting that the left wing
of the allies had been compelled to give
ground, but asserting that the French
have gained new advantages in the
Lorraine region.
The battle has been in progress
twenty-four hours along the center, but
thus far neither side has gained an
advantage, the war Office says.
Fresh troops reached the French
FROM today and most of these were
sent to the center, which is stubbornly
resisting the attempt of the Germans
under the Crown Prince Frederick
William to smash through and join
forces with the German right wing.

ALLIES CONTESTING
AT EVERY INCH
(By Herbert TemDle !

London, Sept. With the allies
contesting every inch of ground with
the traditional fighting qualities of the
French and British armies, the Ger
man tattering ram is still pounding
away against the second line of Eng.
lish ard French defense.
For eleven days, or ever since the
conflict of Mons opened, fighting of
the most furious character has been
in progress in northwestern Belgium
and northeastern France. A decisive
battle is believed to be raging now on
French soil.
Ashmeade Bartlett, chief correspon-
dent Of the Telegraph, in writing to his
paper from the war zone, today ex-
pressed the opinion that the right
wing of the German army has ceased
its efforts to swing behind the north
west flank of the allies and is now
trying to cut through and open up
the shortest possible route to Paris.
