Get three pounds arsenate Of lead

CREAM QudTtcIS III WHICH W i've duO
you will be bothered much less with
disease. Do not allow hogs to sleep
under a shed or house where there is
dust as the dust will give the hog a
cough and once the pig starts cough
ing it is hard to cure. In many
cases the cough caused by dirty
lungs so weakens the pig that he
takes cholera quicker and easier
than had he been in q healthy con-
dition. Every farmer should get
good hogs and see that they are all
inoculated every spring, which will
carry them through the hot part of
the summer, immune from cholera.
l would like to see every boy in
the parish get fine pair of pigs and
go into the hog business for himself.
1t is a good start for the boy and he
will learn lessons in hog raising that
will be of much service to him in
after life. instruction will be given
in feeding, care OF pigs, and in in
oculating. l am now prepared to
help any worthy boy get fine pig
and give him a year to pay for 1t ii
only I can find boys who will take
care of the pigs like l tell them. /
particularly want all corn club boys
to get a pig, as corn and hogs go
together, but any boy who means
business and will promise faithfully
to follow our instructions can get
one or a pair Of pigs. Now is the
time to get busy and see me about
getting the pig, az you will be re-
quired to exhibit the pig at our par
ish fair this fall.
For the benefit of other boy pig
club members ! am giving below tie
Hog Laws of Willie Warner, Whe
is one OF the most successful boy neg
raisers in the parish. He has hogs
weighing up to 500 pounds ard
knows how to care for them. Read
mis- laws below:
l do not like a rake-straw hog fol
he is too much trouble to tell when
he is fat. do not like to have TO
run him down and hold him up by
the ears and see If he is fat or not,
for about half the time the head enc
is the heaviest. want a hog tina;
l do not need to go through with
that kind of monkey motion to tel
whether he Is fat " not, and l Ger
tainly do want one that will be
heavier at the tail end.
Do not let your hogs get lousy
lice will kill as many hogs as cholera.
Dip your hogs and kill the lice, for
they have been known to get on peo-
pie and create other kinds of lice.
Do not lose patience with your
hogs. Treat them as pets and al
ways be kind to them.
Keep fresh water where the hogs
can get to it and put in bit of
Kreso Dip once in a while to disin-
feet and for worms.
Do not wean pigs too young. II
stunts them, and stunted pig is like
a stunted boy-always small.
Do not kick your hogs around out
of your way from time to time-le'
the mules do the kicking to each
other.
See that the SOW has good quarters
in which to bring her pigs, and pro-
vide against her crushing them, with
the side board near the wall
Be sure that your hogs are inocu
lated in due time. Do not wait till
half of them are dead before think
ing about getting busy.
Feed your hogs at a regular time
every day and do not allow them to
have any feed any other time, except
at the regular time, they then learn

New Corn and Hog Cholera

Hogs often take cholera soon after
being put on a ration of new corn, and
its use is often condemned on this
account. New corn alone is not the
cause of hog cholera, but it may be 4
factor, along with other conditions.
that helps weaken the vitality and rem
ders the animal less resistant to dis
ease. In order that new corn may be
fed with safety, the animals should
be put in a healthy, vigorous condition
before time to begin feeding.
When the animals are in thrifty
growing condition, there should be
much less danger but the herd should
be gotten on full feed gradually. II
is well to give them about a stalk
of corn per hog the first day, grad.
ually increasing it by one stalk head
every other day so that it is getting
two stalks the third day, three stalks
the fifth day, and so on until they are
on full feed.
This gives the stomach time to ad
just itself to the new ration and is ;
specially good thing to do befor,
turning old hogs into the field to hos
down corn. 1t is less necessary Il
case of the shoats which are not S,
likely to overfeed because they d
not have the weight and experiene
which enable them to break dow
the stalks rapidly. - E. R. Spence
