RAISING THE COLT BY HAND
Youngsters Should Be Fed Cows MIX
Weakened With Water-Mlxture
Should Be Sweetened.
(By w. D. NEALE.l

An orphan colt can be raised by
hand successfully If a little care is
taken. 1t should be fed on cows
milk, but the COW should be fresh IL
possible.
Do not feed the milk at its normal
strength, but weaken with one-third
water--that is, to two parts milk put
part warm water.
The mixture should be sweetened a
little with sugar and given when about
the temperature of a mares milk.
At the end of two weeks the guam
tity of water may gradually be re-
duced and the amount of milk in
creased until the water is left OF al
together. Don't forget to sweeten the
milk at all times.
Whenever possible the milk should
be given Immediately after milking 1t
from the COW. If it is de1ired, a fresh
egg may be added three times a day.
1t will be a strengthened and will make
the colts hair sleek and glossy.
The quantity of milk given should
be governed by ones judgment. Some
colts require more than others, but be
careful not to overfeed, for the colt
may get the cours. Until the colt is
a month old it will be necessary to
feed it three or four times each day.
To teach the colt to drink from q
pail is not a very great task. Put your
finger in his mouth and lower your
hand into the milk. He will get a
taste of the milk and soon you car slip
your finger from his mouth and he
will proceed without you.
If he proves obstinate, wrap a goose
quill with a strip of cloth and use it as
a nipple in a bottle OF purchase a nip
pie from the drug store.
Good care must be taken OF the
pail from which the colt drinks. It
should be scalded each time 1t is used.
Never use Soul or skim milk. II
you would avoid bowel troubles
Give clean water between feeds. Let
him run in the yard, and soon he will
be nipping the green grass.
After a while he will be eating dry
bran from your hand If you put a little
sugar in it.
Soon you will be able to feed him
some grain and then your hardest work
is over.

Roots of all kinds can be fed cooked
or raw, but they should be chopped
fine.
The legs of dressed poultry when
shipped to market should be perfectly
clean.
By large roaster'' is meant a plump,
soft chicken, weighing about four or
five pounds.
Always turn the heads of the birds
back under the wings in packing
dressed poultry.
When the mornings are cold, take
the chill off the drinking water, but
do not make it warm.
During the months of April. May
and June the highest prices are paid
for a irst-class soft rooster.
Old cock birds have a class of their
own in market, and do not come I'M

room for the vital organs should be
provided by a good width and depth
of chest, w~ell-sprung ribs and straight,
deep sides-a deep, capacious body
from end to end. Depth of chest and
sides are specially important in a
brood SOW. Punched chests and waists
must be avoided. Brood sows should,
of course, show quality, but THIS should
not become overrefined and delicate.
Extremes of refinement usually lead
to delicacy Of constitution and often
accompany sterility.
The selection Of the boar is even
more important than that Of the sows.
1t is possible to obtain success from
the use of a good boar with inferior
isows, but nothing but disaster can pos
lsibly come from the use of an inferior
boar with sows of high quality. One
method raises the standard of the
herd, the other lowers it. If, as is apt
to be the case, the farmers herd at
the beginning is not of sufficient size
to justify buying a high-grade boar for

for him to join with his neighbors in
obtaining one in common, then to at
tempt to get results from an inferior
animal. One boar can serve fifty or
sixty sows a season, SO that co-opera-
tion will be found profitable in a great
majority of instances.
A boar with strongly developed
masculine characteristics should be Sc
lected, preferably as a yearling, or else
as a pig that has been purchased at
the same time as the sows and al
lowed to come to maturity before be-
ing used. He should have a strongly
masculine head and a well-crested
neck. His shoulders should be de-
veloped according to age; but shields
on the shoulders in pigs under a year
or eighteen months are Objectionable.
The same indications of a good pork
producing carcass that the sows re-
quired should be seen in the boar-a
broad, straight, deeply feshed back,
much depth and length of side, and
welLdeveloped hind quarters. The boar
sEould be selected to correct any de-
fleets that may be common to the
sows, for example, if the sows are

built, the boar should have high quail
ty-fne bone, skin and hair. If the
sows tend toward ov-errefinement and
delicacy. the boar should be rather
"rangy" and strengthened.
Once the herd has been established
by the careful selection of sows and
boar, it must be maintained and its
standard raised by the exercise of the
greatest care in the selection of ami
mails for breeding purposes. This Sc
lection should be made as early as
possible. One celebrated breeder used
to select his show lambs and calves
when they were three days old. This,
of course, is unusual, but the decision
should not be delayed any longer than
is absolutely necessary. No animals
should be selected for breeding pur-
poses except for good reasons and
unless the breeder is quite sure that
he is right in his selection.

Mitten Money.

Sometimes when the weather is very
cold and the pilot boat is rolling in
a heavy sea off the Ambrose channel
lightship the old pilots will think twice
about the precarious ride in the small
boat and the icy, strenuous climb up
the ships side on a sea ladder.
And If he does think twice about
it the old fellow may give one OF
the younger pilots a chance to take
his turn. Should this bargain be con-
cluded in the snug cabin the younger
man receives, besides the regular
fee. the sum Of 81. and this is called
mitten money.
