The narrowing pen should provide a
quiet, safe and comfortable place for
the SOW. Light. cleanliness and free
dom from dampness and drafts are es-
sential. A guard rail should be pro-
vided to keep the SOW from crushing
the pigs.
Feeding the SOW so that she is prop
erly nourished and not overfat Is the
most important of the herdsman's du-
ties She should have succulent feeds,
such as pasture or forage in summer
and in winter bran or other laxative
feeds should be given. so that consti-
patton and fever may be less likely to
develop.
The feed for the SOW at narrowing
time should be sloppy and limited in
amount. Nothing but lukewarm water
should be given to the SOW during "a
hours previous to narrowing. This
same rule should be observed after
narrowing. The first "a hours after
narrowing the SOW should have no feed
but should be given a liberal drink of
warm water. II, however. she shows
signs of hunger a thin slop Of bran
and middlings should be given. The
feeding for the first three or four days
should be light and the time consumed
in getting the SOW on full feed should
be from q week to ten days, depend
ing on the size and thrift of the litter.
There is no place equal to good
pasture for the brood SOW and her lit
ter. Alfalfa, clover. rape, oats, rye,
vetch, peas. or native pasture afford
,ucculent nutritious feeds which
Keep both SOW and pigs in good condi-
ion. Little pigs will learn to eat the
forage with the SOW at about ten
lays of age II they have some palat-
,ble pasture.
Sunlight and clean, dry sleeping
pens aid materially in starting the
Digs of and in securing rapid, econom-
cal growth. Feed the sows we'll and
he little pigs will soon learn to eat
" their mothers feed. Cause both
he SOW and pigs to take plenty Of
xercise whether or not on forage or
asture crops.
The dry SOW or bred SOW should be
handled as economically as possible.

II imparts the charm that lies in look

FORAGE CROPS ARE
FAVORED FOR HOGS
Clover Pasture Affords One of
Cheapest Substitutes for
Grain for Swine.

train feed is likely to be scarce and
nigh priced on account of the loss of
he corn crop last fall. Good forage
an be made to go long way toward
aking the place of grain in maintain
ng the brood SOW and starting the
pring litter of pigs. Records Of gains
show that an acre of clover will give
.s large a gain on hogs as 1,400 to
1900 pounds of shorts.
II good clover pasture can be pro-
yided. it will be one of the cheapest
substitutes for grain that can be found.
4 provision for clover pasture or for
forage crops has not been made, sub
,titute crops can be grown. One of
he best substitutes is mixture of a
bushel of oats and IL bushels of Can
ada field peas. These should be sown
iust as early as the ground is ready
to receive the seed. They will make
q good pasture in five or six weeks.
Dwarf Essex rape is also popular
hog forage. This may be sown early,
also. though it grows faster when not
sown until the ground is reasonably
warm. A mixture of half bushel Of
oats, three pounds of Dwarf Essex
rape and two pounds of medium-red
clover sown on an acre of ground
about May 1 will make splendid sum-
mer feed after the middle of June. To
follow this, corn sown in drills SO
inches apart with rape sown broadcast
after the corn has been cultivated
once or twice will make excellent late
summer and early fall feed, especially
for the growing pigs.
BY the use of these forage crops,
very much can be done to stimulate
the growth of the pigs and to put
them in good condition for fall fatten-
ing. If q small amount Of shorts and
some skim milk can be provided for
the young pigs with the forage, excel
lent gains will be made.

PRACTICAL POINTS
FOR A POULTRYMAN
Whole Flock Should Be Kept in
as Near Perfect State of
Health as Possible.

tBy LESLIE E. CARD. Connecticut Az
ricultural College.)
Keep the whole flock in as near a
perfect state of health as possible, as
eggs are often infected from diseased
condition of the hen and will not then
keep as we'll.
Give enough shell-forming food to
the hens so that the shells will be
strong and uniform in thickness Thin
shelled eggs do not keep we'll.
Make proper nesting places and
keep them clean SO that the eggs may
not be infected while in the nests.
Gather the eggs each day.
Keep the gathered eggs in a dry,
cool room or cellar where the suns
rays do not fall directly upon them.
Preserve only absolutely fresh eggs.
Stale eggs will not keep in any pre-
sentative. Place eggs in the preserv-
alive within twenty-four hours after
the time they are laid. II in doubt
as to their freshness, candle them, or
see If they sink when placed in a
dish Of pure water. If an egg sinks
it Is reasonably fresh.
Do not preserve dirty eggs nor eggs
that have been washed. The washed
egg will not keep because the shell
has been moistened, and the dirty eggs
will become tainted in flavor.
Do not try to keep eggs longer than
one year.
Do not use the same liquid more
than once. A new lot is cheaper than
a case Of spoiled eggs.
Rinse the eggs in water after re-
moving from the preservative II in
good condition when removed from
water-glass solution they will usually
remain for at least two weeks.
Water-glass eggs are practically as
good as fresh eggs for all cooking pur
poses. II it is desired to boil them
prick a small hole through the large
end of the shell before placing them
In the water The pores Of the shell
have been sealed by the water-glass
solution and without this pin hole the
expanding air within the shell would
burst it.

This Is q

place with narrow ribbon. This Is q
couture for evening dress.
A pretty style recently introduced
shows the hair with an almost i'm
perceptible wave parted at the left
side and combed across the head to
the right side. 1t is brought little
way down in a curve at the middle
of the forehead and arranged in four
soft coils across the back of the head
against the nape of the neck. A Jew.
eled comb is thrust in the hair above
the coils and at the right of the
crown.
The most becoming of recent styles
has a small pompadour across the fore
head and stands out at the sides, sug.
costing the bobbed hair of children
In this style the back hair is coiled
low across the head. In the latest
coiffures short curls are appearing
sometimes at each side of the face and
sometimes in the coils at the back of
the head. and there Is reason to be-
lieve that the popularity of the uncov,
cred forehead Ia waning.

SO they should have pasture and be
fed a well-balanced ration, and just
enough OF 1t to keep them in good con-
dition without permitting them to be-
come fat. AS narrowing time ap-
proaches the sows should be separated
in order to prevent their crowding or
injuring one another.
The Herd Boar.
The herd boar Is best handled by
giving him a pasture lot by himself
His feed should be liberal enough to
keep him in good breeding condition
only. This will be very light when he
is not in use for breeding purposes,
but during the breeding season his
feed should be increased. His ration
should consist of some high-protein
feeds along with mill feeds and a lit
tie corn. The care of the boar Is i'm
portant because Of his relative impor-
lance in the herd. and his care, quar-
tiers, feed and watering should be care
fully seen to and provided.
Shotes.
The term shote is applied to all
swine from the time the pig reaches
weaving age until the fattening or
breeding age is reached. Pigs should
be weaned at from eight to thirteen
weeks. depending on whether or not
the sows are to be bred again. 1t is
always wise to have them taught to
eat we'll before weaving in order that
the rate Of gain may not be checked.
Weaving should be done gradually.
the sow's feed being reduced to cause
her to dry up properly and at the
same time increasing the feed for the
pigs. The pigs at this age should have
a ration rather high in protein and
low in carbohydrates.
The boar pigs should be castrated
between six and eight weeks of age
before they are weaned. The young
er the pig the less the shock and DOS
sibly the less check in growth. II
pig is still sucking its dam when cas-
tration takes place the chances are
that it will be more thrifty and in
better condition than II castrated i'm
mediately after weaving. Spaying the
females is not advisable under mod
ern conditions and will not be found
profitable enough to justify the risk
of the operation

Fox picture Regeneration, featuring
Rockliffe Fellows and Anna Nillson is
the feature at the Lamara Theater to-
day and tomorrow Regeneration is
founded upon the play written by Rock
life Fellows called MY Mamie Rose"
and is said TO be the story of his own
life. Born in the slums of New York he
rises to the position of a gang leader
only to fall in love with the little teach
er at the Settlement House His love
for her is such that she completely re
claims him. In the picture story she
dies on the eve of her success. but in
actual life Fellows becomes a reporter
and playwright and is now one of the
prominent and forceful members of the
histronic profession throughout the
United States. He is entirely self
educated man and at that is capable of
writing in the most exacting English
style. He has brought himself to this
because of the influence in his life Of
a little teacher at settlement house
under whose influence he came in his
early manhood. When this famous
picture showed here before it was the
general concenses that the fire scene
on the excursion steamer was one OF
the most thrilling scenes ever depicted

two days stay at the Columbia with

night they will have no trouble with
Columbia patrons The Come Back"
is said to be taken from the life of
fast young fellow from the gay white
way of our only New York. 1t GER
tainly is true to nature. The picture
patron is not asked to believe a lot of
impossible stunts put on just for the
sake of making sensation but this
picture is a splendid. true and clean
story done in fine style and not a line
in it is offensive. The cut in which
shows the milllonaire's idea of the way
some of the youngsters in the fast set
spend their money is a fine piece of al
legorical photography and ads much
to the strength of the picture. AS an
added spice to an already good pro-
gram the Drews put one over in their
Cook Wanted" comedy in one reel. A
Pathe News is the added feature today.
The Columbia still continues to be the
mecca of those who learn more and
more each day that it is the one cool
spot in Phoenix. This is not an idle
business boost but the fact that stamps
itself on the minds of those who make
the first visit to this only first class
house in Phoenix. The class and kind
of plays offered are much on the i'm
prove and all of the concerns. who are
serving the comfy house are striving
for regulations. and are not content to
rest on records made long ago, hence
the ever increasing worth of the pro-
grams. The Columbia is the cool spot
