PROFIT IN SELF
FED SPRING PIGS

That self feeding OF spring pigs Is
highly profitable no longer admits Of
any doubt. provided such animals are
intended for early market. writes II
Thorne in the Country Gentleman
Hogs thus fed will make very rapid
gains. and recent experiments indicate
that If the necessary ingredients are
supplied in separate rcceptacles the pig
will balance his ration more economi-
cally and will make more rapid gains
than when the same ingredients are
mixed and doled out by the feeder
Last summer ! was much interested
in the feeding operations on the farm
of noted breeder of pure bred hogs
This farm maintained "A breeding herd
OF sixty TO eighty brood sows. which
were divided into two lots and kept
on separate parts of the farm. The
two lots of hogs were about the same
in all respects and were supplied with
the same kinds of feed. Each lot was
under the management of a separate
herdsman
One herdsman tried the experiment
OF fitting up a small self feeder in one
corner of the pasture. In which twenty
or more sows were running with their
litters OF pigs six 10 twelve weeks old.
The hopper was fenced against the
Alma record., 1915-12-23

older hogs and was kept well supplied
with shelled corn. tankage and char
coal, each in separate compartments.
At the time of my visit in July the
pigs having access 10 these feeds were
fully 40 per cent heavier than the pigs
OF the same age Oh the other part of
the farm. Furthermore. the mothers
OF the pigs that had grain al lib. were
i'm far better condition than the sows in
the other lot owing 10 the fact that
the self fed pigs were inclined to nurse
less than the pigs in the other lot.
Last year the Iowa station fed five
pigs that averaged 316 pounds at eight
months and four days old. These pigs
were placed in a dry lot at eighty days
old. weighing forty-nine pounds each.
The self feeder was supplied with
shelled corn. whole oats, tankage. oil
meal. charcoal salt and ground lime
stone AT the start these pigs ate two
pounds of corn day each. The amount
consumed gradually increased until at
weight OF 225 pounds they were eat
ing nine pounds Of corn day each
amounts. usually ranging from half
TO three-fourths of pound daily. Aft
er they reached weight OF 235 pounds
they ate very little OF this concentrates
From this time corn comprised prac
tically their sole ration Oats were but
little relished by the pigs. and but
small quantities OF oilmeal were eaten
If. however. tankage Is not available
pigs will utilize more OF the oilmeal
Tankage is the cheaper and better
source OF protein for hog feeding and
should be more generally used
The above results were obtained at "A
cost Of considerably less than ; cents
n pound With pasture supplement the
cost OF gains will be materially reduc-
ed and slightly more rapid gains will
result The cafeteria fed hog however
will not utilize nearly So large guam
tity Of forage as viii the hog receiving
only q half or three-quarter ration OF
grain in any season corn is pre-
emInently the grain the hog prefers.

ON account Of the backward season
there will be a large amount OF soft
corn unless the present damp summer
is followed by an unusually warm fall
Soft corn means very serious loss TO

The loss is not great provided ne has -

INTO the silo at once.
This. according TO W. l.. Markey Of
the College of Agriculture OF the Uni
Nersity of Wisconsin. is the pressing
reason for silO on every farm this
year. Several other silo reasons how
ever, are enumerated by Mr. Markey.
The silo furnishes succulent. palata
bie feed of uniform quality that is al
ways near AT hand In addition TO
high food value silasc supplies succu.
lcnce, which makes II easily digestible
and keeps the systems of the cows
toned up. This tends to provide June
conditions in the dairy in January and
results in n fun milk flow
The silo preserves the corn crop with
the minimum amount of loss. as the
entire plant Is made ft for food. 1t
increases the number of cows that can
be kept on a given number of acres.
This has been estimated at double the
number possible without silo.
II economies space. time aud build
ing costs in storage The entire crop
can be stored in "a short time at a
relatively low labor cost I'M about one
third of the space required to store an
equal amount OF food value i'm the
form of hay.
Silage makes the most economical.
convenient feed for supplementing
short pastures during period OF
drought A silo equalizes the supply
of feed by carrying II over in good
condition from one year TO another
Cases are on record where silage has
kept in perfect condition for several
years.
A silo can be used for ensiling clover
or alfalfa during a spell of wet wealth

What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of &c.
rious illness, makes chemical analysis
OF the patients urine. He knows that un.
less the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or.
abused in any way, serious results are sure.
to follow. Therefore, it is particularly
necessary to pay more attention to the
health OF these important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as kidney remedy 10
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root.
The mild and healing influence Of this
preparation, in most cases, is soon real
lied, according to sworn statements and
verified testimony Of those who have used
the remedy.
When your kidneys require attention,
get Swamp-Root at once from any phar.
macy. It is sold by every druggist in bot.
ties of two sizes-5Oc and $I.O0.
However, If you wish first to test this
great preparation, send ten cents to DR..
