RAISING THE COLT BY HAND
Youngsters Should BE Fed Cows Milk
Weakened With Water-Mixture
Should b Svseetensd.
By w d NEAIFl

An orphan colt can be raised by
hand successfully If 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
one part warm water.
The mixture should be sweetened =
little with sugar and given when about
the temperature Of 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. II it is de-ired, fresh
egg may be added three times day.
1t will be a strengthener 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 scours. 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 a
pail is not 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 can slip
your finger from his mouth and he
will proceed without you.
II he proves obstinate. wrap goose
quill with a strip of cloth and use it as
a nipple In bottle or purchase nip.
pie from the drug store.
Good care must be taken Of the
pail from which the colt drinks. 1t
should be scalded each time it is used.
Never use sour or skim milk. il
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 q while he will be eating dry
bran from your hand If you put little
sugar in It,
Soon you will be able to feed him
some grain and then your hardest work
is over.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
A recent farmers bulletin (No. 624)
issued by the United States depart
ment Of agriculture. entitled Natural
and Artificial Brooding Of Chickens"
contains some interesting suggestions
regarding the feeding Of young chick
ems. The accompanying figure illus
trates 4 frame cover with wire netting
to protect feed Of young chicks from
the older fowls.
Young chickens should be fed from
three to five times daily. depending
upon ones experience In feeding. I'm
doubtedly chickens can be grown fast
or by feeding five times daily than by
feeding three times daily. but 1t
should be borne In mind that more
harm can be done to the young chick
ems by overfeeding than by under
feeding. and at no time should they be
fed more than barely to satisfy their
Appetites and TO keep them exercis-
ing, except at the evening or last meal,
when they should be given all they
will eat. Greater care must be exer-
cised not to overfeed young chicks
that are confined than those that have
tree range, as leg weakness is liable to
result In those confined.
Farmers who have no experience in
hog raising but who wish to start a
herd on their farms are urged by the
United States department Of agricul-
ture to make haste slowly. 1t will be
real economy, they say, II the begin
ner can secure the advice and assist
ance of an experienced breeder.
Whether he succeeds In this or not,
he should start with a small herd.
Five sows will be enough for the first
year If these are really good animals.

brood SOW are set forth in farmers

to delicacy of constitution and often
accompany sterility.
The selection of the boar is even
more important than that Of the sows.
It is possible to obtain success from
the use of good boar with inferior
sows, but nothing but disaster can pos
sibly 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. II, as is apt
to be the case. the farmers herd at
the beginning is not Of sufficient size
to justify buying high-grade boar for
his exclusive use, it will be far better
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 season, SO that co-opera-
ton will be found profitable in great
majority of instances.
A boar with strongly developed
masculine characteristics should be Sc
lected, preferably as yearling, or else
as pig that has been purchased at

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.
