GOOD SUGGESTION
ON FEEDING STOCK
Soft Corn viii Put as Much Fat
on Cattle as Grain That
Is Sound

am a great believer In shredded
corn fodder. but I have never yet
tried to fatten cattle without giving
them the real corn in addition. |
did learn one lesson, however, that
soft corn will put nearly as much fat
on cattle as grain that is sound. One
vet season my entire corn crop was
badly matured and nearly all of It
was soft. l could not afford to throw
II away and buy sound corn. so l
filled the silo with IL and then fed the
rest out of shock before 4 began on
the silage. l had about one hundred
feeders that season and the way they
put on flesh was caution. l believe,
too, that some of the experiments
made In feeding soft corn by the Iowa
station few years ago produced ex-
cellent results. or course, none of my
soft corn was really spoiled but Il

(By +. II. BALLOU)
While it Is impossible to preserve
seed potatoes in good condition in a
storage which combines a too high
degree of temperature with darkness,
semidarkness or even slightly sub
dued light, it is quite possible to keep
them for several weeks. in late spring
or early summer, when they are
spread thinly on the floor of a bright
sunny room. After danger of freezing
weather is past they are even better
placed out Of doors in the direct sun
shine. A series of shelves arranged
one above another on the southern
exposure Of the dwelling or farm
building provides an excellent place
for sun sprouting. The tubers are
spread in single layers on the shelves
and allowed to remain until wanted
for planting. Exposed to the full
force of the suns rays the tubers, in
stead Of sending out long, white, ten
der, succulent sprouts as in poorly
lighted storage, become hardened in
flesh and green in color, and very
short, stubby, firm. green sprouts are
developed by the eyes. whitening of
the tubers is but slight as compared
with that under conditions found in
a warm, dark storage, and they will
remain in the sunlight many weeks in
good condition for planting.
Tubers may be exposed to the sun
light for several weeks-from four to
ten weeks, and they will sprout splen-
didly. Such tubers when cut one
sprout to a piece and planted, send up
strong plants in a surprisingly short
time. It is hardly profitable to sun
sprout large tubers for planting, as
not all Of the eyes will develop sprouts
and considerable waste will result.
However, the plan is excellent when
smaller tubers are used and planted
without cutting. So firm and tough
become the hard, short, sturdy sprouts
developed in the sun, that planting
may be done with certain horse
power machines without injury to the
seed tubers If not too many are placed
in the planter at time. Planting of

COMMON SENSE IN
CARING FOR SWINE
Breeders Disagree on Age at
Which to Breed SoWs-Watch
Litter Carefully.
cRv r q wEATHERSToNE1

(By r. G. WEATHERSTONE.)
There is a great difference in opin-
ion among farmers-and good farm
ers at that-as to the age at which
sows should be bred. Some men breed
gifts at ten or eleven months, while
others do not bred until they are two
years old
Some farmers claim that a SOW
should not be bred after she is four
years old, as she Is then apt to kill
her pigs by lying on them. This
trouble is generally due to the SOW
being too fat rather than her age.
Never select brood SOW with long,
lean, narrow head and wicked little
eyes. She is apt to be nervous and
cross and a pig eater. It's q good
plan to feed little grain to the grow
ing pigs even though they are run
ming on good pasture.
In the South many hog raisers turn
their young hogs out into the swamps
along the rivers and creeks and pay
no attention to them during the en-
tire summer, rounding them up in the
fall only to feed them two or three
weeks before shipping them to mar
ket. Some surprisingly good results
are obtained in this way. too.
Sows with young litter should be
watched carefully, for there are many
sows who do not give enough milk to
start the pigs off well. In such cases
the youngsters should be fed little

Fine Potatoes, Uniform In Size.

planted in July, two years ago, was
planted last year by the side of com
mon stock, or seed which had been
grown in the ordinary way. There
are "a tenth-acre plots in each series
of the three-year rotation. potatoes
wheat-clover. The plots are 272 feet
long and 16 feet wide, which permits
five rows of potatoes in each plot. The
first three rows in each plot were
planted with seed tubers from the
July planted stock and the other two
with the ordinary seed. This method
precluded the possibility of any un-
equal effect upon the various plots by
using two lots Of seed.
The potatoes were all the same va
riety and were all planted the same
day. The plants grown from July
sun-sprouted seed appeared nearly
two weeks in advance of the others
and maintained quite noticeable diff
ference until they were of large size.
In fact so noticeable was the differ
ence in the vigor anG increased size
of the plants that the casual observer
would stop and remark and the more
interested one would inquire into the
details of the method. Many thought
that the two parts of the plots were
planted at different dates or possibly
were of different varieties. Let it be
understood that this particular seed
was not sprouted but that the crop
was raised from sprouted seed, which
had been planted the first Of July the
year previous. The season was not a
good one, serious inroads being made
by the fusarium wilt, which seriously
impaired the results, but an increased
yield and higher per cent of germina-
tion were constant throughout the
plats, in favor OF the sun-sprouted
seed. The total average results are
as follows: Late grown (number of
hills per row.: 1854; common seed,
1928; late grown (per cent of ger
mination): common seed, 1913; late
grown average yield of pounds per
row.: S6.4; common, 64.6.
A half bushel of potatoes raised
from sprouted seed were placed in a
closed box in the storage room beside
half bushel raised by the ordinary
method placed in similar closed box.
A half bushel of the same were placed
in closed boxes and set in the green
house under a raised bed, over winter.
In both cases the July planted pota-
toes kept much firmer and were much
slower to sprout than the others.
