New Corn And Hog Cholera.

Hogs often take cholera soon
after being put on a ration Of new
corn. and it's use is often con-
demed on this account. New
corn alone 10 not the causeof hog

along with other conditions, that

renders the animal less resistant

corn may be fed with safety, the
animals should be put in heal.

time to begin feeding.
When the animals are In q
thrifty growing condition. there
should be much less danger but
the herd should be gotten on full
feed gradually. II is well 10 give
them about a stalk Of corn per
hog the first day, gradually in
creasing IL by one stalk a head
every other day 80 that It is get.
ting 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

and is a specially good thing TO
do before turning old hogs into
the field to hog down corn. l. 10

Changing Breeds or Chang
ing Feeds.

In travelling over the country
we often find poultry breeders
who are continually changing
from one breed to another, and
in the same way we find men
changing from one feed or sys-
tenn Of feeding to another. Nei-
ther seems to make very much
progress.
The first man seems to think
that all depends upon the breed
or variety and when one breed
fails for him, he sells the stock
he has, buys u new start and be-
gins all over again, but follows
the same old system OF feeding
and care which failed before, and
as result, in two or three years,
|is ready to sell out aud try some
other breed,
The second man thinks it is all
in feeding and tries everything
he hears Of in the form OF poultry
food, not staying with one feed
or system Of feeding long enough
to get definite results.
The facts are that neither
breeding ncr feeding alone will
succeed, but proper feeding will
bring good results.
OF the many lessons learned in
the Egg Laying Confess con-
Quoted at this Station, the two
which stand out very prominen-
tly are that there is no "best"
breed and no "best" feed. AL
most every breed and variety
can point with pride TO some win.
ming made in the contest. This
leads us to believe that there is
more in the breeding than there
is in the breed or variety, and
that strain tells more than either.
In other words, we believe that il
is possible through breeding to
produce either high or low egg
producers.
It. is also true that person can
influence the number OF eggs
produced through the feeding.
The proper solution Of this pro-
blem is for every poultry raiser
to select the variety he likes best
and is best suited To- his condi-
tions, and improve ms flock by
selecting breeding stock and
work out a system OF feeding
which is the most practical, us
/ ing as q base 10. the ration The
feed which il the cheapest and
easiest obtained, and purchasing
only such feeds as are needed ID
produce o balance.

A ghost story is being recalled
by elderly residents OF Stone

The county court has a propo-
silion up for consideration in the
nature OF a bond issue whereby
all outstanding county warrants,

court to get this matter before
the people at once, so that II
