PREPARE FOR WINTER EGGS
Let Hens Get Accustomed to Changes
and Back to Laying Before Cold
Weather Has Set In.

Preparations that are to be made
in the poultry yard for winter should
be made early in the fall so the hens
will become accustomed to the
changes and have time to get back
to laying before cold weather sets in.
Remove all the old litter and nest
ing material and burn it. IL allowed
to accumulate in the yards it will
serve as a wholesale incubator for
disease germs, which may mean death
to your fowls. The best plan is al
ways to keep everything clean. 1t is
the cheapest, too.
After everything has been removed
from the house and it has had q
thorough scrubbing, give it a good
painting all over with whitewash and
disinfectant made of crude carbolic
acid. If you cannot do this, any OF
the commercial disinfectants will do.
Paint the roost with il an hour or two
before the hens go to rOost and it
will do away with the lice.
If you are planning any new build
ings or yards, they should be made
at once, for it will be fatal to the
production of winter eggs, if you wait
until cold weather comes. The hens
naturally require some time to get
accustomed to new things.

Cooked Potatoes for Hens.

European poultrymen use potatoes

try. The potatoes, which are the I'M
marketable culls, are thoroughly
cooked and used as the basis OF a

The hog that best meets the de-
mand of the present time is a we'll
muscled hog, that will supply fair
amount Of lard, and fat meat well
marbled with lean, and be ready for
market at any desired age.
Practical pig growers. and feeders
of market hogs look for good quality,
depth, length and width of form, and
uniformity Of type, regardless of the
breed, color and characteristic mark
ings.
However, it is essential that we Sc
lect our breeding animals from some
well-estabished breed, for promiscu-
Gus mating of swine of various types
has a tendency to destroy the types
of all the breeds employed in the
crosses and to throw away the result
of years of systematic selecting and
mating, and perpetuate a certain fixed
type in the breed. This point has
been illustrated by mating a half Po-
land China and half Chester White
sow with a pure-bred Berkshire boar.
The pigs resulting from the cross were
red, spotted, speckled and striped,
showing that the improved type of all
three used in the cross was lost, and
with it the improvements in color and
markings.
The result was the return of the off.

the original scrub type.

HOGS INFESTED WITH WORMS
Many Owners Never Suspect Anything
Wrong Until His Animals Show
Visible Signs Of Sickness.

Some hog growers positively know
their hogs are not infested with
worms, although they have never Civ
en- them anything to prevent them.
Some think their hogs are all right in
this respect.
The downright truth is that 80 per
cent Of the hogs are infested with
worms and the owner never suspects
until his hogs show signs of sickness.
1t pays to be on the safe side all the

The question which breed Of swine
