Field No. is devoted entirely to
hog pasture. When clover and tim
othy are planted together the hogs
Craze principally on the clover and
leave most of the timothy to be cut
for hay. In the five-year rotation, how
ever. field No. 5 is depended upon to
furnish the principal supply Of hay for
the horses and cows. There should be
some surplus and this. OF course. can
be sold. Late in the fall the field is
plowed for first year corn. and In the
following spring 1t takes its place in
the rotation as field No. 1.
Under such a system hogs furnish
the principal income. They are turned
in on the rye as early as possible In
the spring and there they remain as
long as the pasture is tender. al
though the brood sows should be
taken to other Enclosures as soon as
the spring pigs can be weaned, and
there bred for fall litters. Early in
May when the rye probably ceases to
afford good pasture the hogs are
turned into field No. 4, devoted to
first-year clover and timothy. With
the addition of reasonably liberal
corn ration they feed on this until the
middle of July, or two weeks after the
rye has ripened, when they are turned
back into the rye field and allowed to
hog 1t all down without other feed By
the time the rye is harvested the corn
in field No. l is ready for the hogs.
hogs will gather all the corn by No
vember |. In this way with practical
ly no labor and very little attention
the entire herd is furnished with pas
ture and grain feed throughout the
entire spring, summer and fall. In
addition, there is the corn from field
No 2, which is harvested and not
hogged down, and the surplus hay
from fields No. and S.
Under this system, the only time
when outside labor is indispensable is
during the hay harvest. On farm of
hundred acres it is not probable that
this will amount to more than ten
days hired labor which Is certainly
much less than is required by the sys-
tens of farm management in more
general use. AS for the cash income,
it may be said that roughly speaking
rye ultimately brings the same re-
turns, whether it is hogged down or
cut and threshed and sold. In the
latter case, however. there is all the
cost of labor to be considered. To
save this, is the main object OF the

TIME FOR SELLING PIG CROP
Materials and Development Of
Bone, Muscle and Vigor.

The best time to sell the pigs de-
pends upon the price Of feeding ma.
terials that may be utilized in growing
them and developing their bone, mus
Gle and vigor, and preparing them for
the fattening period. When we have
plenty Of forage, skim milk and other
homegrown foods, We often find it ad-
vantageous to allow them longer
period of growth than when we feed
an exclusive grain diet. Market de-
mands are for a medium-sized hog,
with plenty of lean meat; strong, but
not too coarse bone; plenty of activity
and strength to stand up well during
shipment
Fall pigs, as a rule, are less profit
able unless the feeder can utilize what
would otherwise be waste feed in keep
ing them through the winter. Pigs
that make good gains during the win
ter, and can be put on pasture in the
spring, and then fattened in the fall,
often make good gains during the
longer periods, and cash in fine profits
in the fall. On account Of coming to
maturity at the best time to breed for
spring litters, we have found fall far
rowed sows very desirable for breed
ing purposes. The second season gives
them the bone and muscle develop
ment at very low cost
Warm drinking water, light, warm
and dry quarters, succulent food with
frequent change of breeding and diet,
will insure good growth during the
winter, but unless we are in the best
shape to look after these details, we
find it best to confine our feeding to
spring litters. The fall pig that goes
into the winter without a warm place
to sleep and plenty of warm, nourish-
ing food, has winter of misery be-
fore it

tenn should consist OF four or five
fields of from 20 to 40 acres each,
and 1t is desirable that all the fields
should be Of approximately the same
size. Farms should be laid out in &C.

ber to September TO- When the corn
is cultivated for the last time. 1t is
usually desirable to SOW soy beans or

pasturage while gathering the corn,

Field No is. as we have seen. de-

corn has been cut and shocked. Rye
may be sown much later than wheat,
