farm by the time the fall pigs need
extra care. Up to this time they have
been fed principally through the dam.
When about ready to leave the dam
we begin to give them slop ration,
which we keep up until they go to
market. We begin feeding corn-small
quantities at first-as soon as they
have been weaned. The slops consist
principally Of skim milk, and right
here we want to say there is nothing
that compares with skim milk as an
accompaniment to corn for the grow
ing pigs. When there is no skim milk
to be had we have used wheat mid
dlings scalded In hot water with fair
results.

Meat Eaters Are Fighters.

Science has proved that meat eaters,
while physically strong for supreme
struggle, cannot endure an extended
strain" said a New York doctor.
There is not a finer race in Europe
than the Bulgarians when it comes to
pure physical perfection. The men are
big, strong, strapping fellows, capable
of enduring all manner of hardships.
In the Russo-Japanese war it was
demonstrated that the Japanese were
marvels Of physical endurance. The
Bulgarians and the Japanese are es-
sentially nonmeat eaters. They live
on vegetables and fish and mighty
little of the latter. Meats, particularly
red meats, while they give strength,
subtract from the sum Of endurance"
