Homemade Tonics For Hogs In
crease Weight.

Hogs are not thriving this sum-
mer, many farmers say, and no
quantity of feed seems to cause
them to make gains that are deemed
adequate. TONES especially pre-
pared are good but costly, and the
remedy following has been found
successful when used as tonic
and eliminant.
1t should be given at the rate of
tablespoonful to each mature hog,
in slop about twice week. The
recipe follows:
One-half bushel of air. Stacked
lime.
One pound sulphur.
One pound blood root.
Two and one-half pounds of VEN
etian red.
One half pound copperas.
Two ounces cayenne pepper.
The ingredients should be thor
oughly mixed and kept in a dry
place. The mixture will cost less
than 81 and the mixing will take
little time. Care should be taken
to see that the copperas is thor
oughly mixed with the other in
gradients, as a considerable guam
tity going to one animal would
prove fatal Joplin Globe.
