in building materials, which has many
points to commend 1t to the average
farmer.
The row of windows at the top ex-
tending the full length of the building
is n feature worthy Of attention,
writes II. II. Gould in Farmer and
Breeder. There is no better disin-
fectant for n hoghouse, no more effi-
cient destroyer of disease germs
known. than plenty of bright sunlight.
Plenty of sunshine is better and
cheaper than buying medicine for the
hogs.
Fresh air is also an essential fea-
ture OF any well-constructed hoghouse.
Every farmer knows how soon the air
in the ordinary pig Shed becomes foul
when filled with hogs. Hence to in
sure healthy hogs some provision for
ventilation must be made. This is
provided for in the plans shown by
the four ventilators. two on each side,
in addition to the ventilation secured
from the side windows and doors.
These ventilators are especially valu-
able during the cold weather in the
winter when the doors and windows
are closed for protection from the
cold.
The outside dimensions of this house
are 22 by &c feet. 1t contains ten sep
arate pens each 6 feet inches by Z
feet 8 inches in the clear, with an
alley feet . inches wide running the
full length OF the building between
the two rows of pens.
There is an outside door at each end
of the alley. Then a door opens out
ward into the alley from each pen, SO
that the hogs may be separated and
shipped from one pen to another with
convenience inside the building.
Each pen is also supplied with an
outside door so that separate runs or
yards may be built on the outside for
each. In decent weather this door
could be left open SO that the pigs
could have the use of the outside run
and inside shelter at will.
Such q house is especially adapted
for brood sows during the farrowing
season. Each sow and litter can be
provided with separate pen and out
side run, until the pigs are old enough

SEED BED FOR VEGETABLES
Pile Weeds, cornstalks, Brush and
Odd Pieces on Spot and Then Set
Fire to Heap.

In forming a bed for tomato. cab
bage or other plants that will be trans
planted, a fine plan Is to choose shel.
tered. south-side spot; pile weeds,
cornstalks. brush and odd chunks of
wood on 1t, and set fire to the heap.
When the fire dies down, take the
spade and turn up the ground where
the fire was built. This thoroughly
mixes the ashes from the fire with the
soil, fertilizing it. while the heat of the
fire destroys many insects. worms.
etc., together with their eggs, in that
particular spot.
AS soon as the ground is cooled of
sufficiently, sprinkle the seeds lightly
over the surface of the bed, draw the
rake over the dirt few times, and
carefully spread some fine brush
across II. to prevent the birds and
chickens from damaging The bed. On
nights when the temperature seems
to foretcll frost, toss some straw or
hay over the bed, or spread an old
blanket or carpet over II.

KEEP BROOD MARES WORKING
Ordinary Farm Work viii Not Hurt
Them-Turn Them Out In Field
Every Pleasant Day.

Pregnant mares can be worked ad-
vantageously right up to foaling time,
says a writer. Work should not be too
heavy, but ordinary farm work will
not hurt them. Successful colt raisers
nearly always work their mares and
seldom have trouble with either mare
or colt.
If you have no work, turn them out
in field every nice day. Always be
very quiet and gentle with mare in
foal. In bad weather she is better of
in the stable.
Fancy feeding is not necessary.
Feeding and watering should be quite
regular. A horse fed regularly and
fully will seldom eat too much. The
best hay for brood mares is mixed
clover and timothy. Avoid all dam
aged food. Some wheat bran and oats
may be fed, even though the cost is
high. Cut down on corn as foaling
time approaches.
After the colt is foaled the mare
should not be worked for about ten
days, and then lightly for couple OF
weeks. Care should be taken not to
overwork or overhead her. as this will
cause the milk to be bad and may
cause collie or Indigestion in the colt.
1t is best to leave the colt in the barn
while its mother is at work.
