HOgging Down Corn
Brings Good Results

The hogs at the North Dakota ex-
pertinent Station are husking their
own corn. The flint varieties were
mature enough to begin "hogging
down" nearly two weeks ago. At the
Edgeley Sub-Station corn is also be-
ing "hogged down." In previous trials
in "hogging down. corn at the North
Dakota Experiment Station the hogs
have given returns averaging $4,000
per acre. Trials have been made in
comparing the returns from corn
''hogged- down." as compared to corn
husked and fed the hogs. The best
returns have been given by the hogs
helping themselves to the corn. This
saves the work of husking and haul
ing the corn to the hogs.
When the corn is ''hogged down.
such early maturing varieties as the
Gehu and Squaw corn can be grown.
These would be little difficult to
husk due to the ears being so close
to the ground, and they can not be
handled by machinery for the same
reason. Growing such varieties
makes it possible to start the corn
feeding earlier than would be pos
sible with the larger varieties of corn
In this way "hogging down" corn
lengthens the corn feeding season be-
fore cold weather.

is led to wonder whether it would not
be more profitable to have these pigs
larger at this time of year. That 1t
is more profitable to have the pigs
larger at this time of year, at least
in most cases, is proven by the fact
that the most successful hog raisers
see to it that their spring pigs weigh
at least 10 to 135 pounds by the end
of September. Should one undertake
to criticise a man with 60 pound pigs
and tell him that his pigs should pc
larger an argument Immediately fol-
lows. The average farmer knows
that his pigs should be larger at this
time of year to be profitable. His
problem is how to get them larger.
Wherever small pigs are found at
this time of year several shortcom-
ings can be located in the manage
ment the pigs have had. The first
l. is that inferior, understood breeding
stock has been used, the second is
that the pigs were farrowed late in
the spring and the third, is that they
have gone through the summer on
pasture but with too limited a grain
ration. The first essential in raising
big growthy pigs that can be mar
keted in the month of November. at
a weight of IT'S to 200 pounds is that
good big, heavy boned breeding stock
must be used. For some reason OF
other a pig farrowed in March OF
early in April always seems to grow
faster than one farrowed in May OF
! June. The second essential to rapid
growth of the pigs is that they be
farrowed early. March is the month
selected as the most successful far.
rowing month by the best hog grow
ers. It is true that it takes some
thing of a building and a little care
to farrow the pig crop in March but
it pays. In order that pigs may make
a rapid growth through the summer
months they must have a combinlaa'
tion of good pasture and suitable
grain ration: 1t has been proven q
good many times that pigs will make
the most rapid growth when running
on good pasture and getting thel1
grain from self-feeder. However
this has not always proved the most
economical method of making the
gains. In the work at the North Da-
kota Experiment Station covering
several years, good gains have been
made when growing pigs were pas.
turing on alfalfa and receiving grain
ration of pounds per day per loo
pounds live weight of pigs.
1t has been demonstrated that hog
ging off corn is one of the most econ
omical and practical ways of fatten-
ing pigs. However, if this is to be
done successfully the pigs should
weigh an average of lis to 125 lbs
at least when they are turned into
the corn in September. This is an;
other reason why every effort should
be made to get the pigs early in the
spring and grow them rapidly thru
the summer months.-W. H. Peters

CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES

1t is said that California has an
extension system which has found
that certified seed potatoes are worth
so to IS cents more a bushel than the
ordinary run of seed. The difference
in the price will be greater as time
goes on and people in general will
find out the value of certified seed
The plan as worked out consists of
an inspector whose duty it is to in:
spect the fields two or three times and
also see the seed in the bins. Many
fields can be brought up to the stan
dard by pulling out the diseased hills
Those receiving aid in this way pay
pro rata on the number of acres each
one has. The cost amounting to about
an average of $500 per acre. The
increased price on four or five bush
els pays the bill.
No doubt the time is not far dis
tant when Williams county farmers
will find similar system to their ad-
vantage.
