Excellent AS FEED
FOR GROWING PIGS
Experiments Show Skim Milk to
Be Valuable Hog Feed-Builds
Bone and Muscle.

Skim milk is a most valuable hog
feed. Experiment shows that it COM
pares with grain for feed at tho
rate of six pounds Of skim milk equal
to one pound of grain. It's chief use
should be as supplemental feed for
the growing pigs. 1t is a wonderful
muscle and bone builder. To be sure,
it can be fed to fattening hogs Ruc-
cessfully. Whether it be fed or not
should be governed by the price OF
grain and the price and availability or
skim milk.
When it may be fed economically
can be determined from the compare
tive value: one of grain equals six or
skim milk. When skim milk is fed to
fattening hogs, it should be fed only
as a part Of the ration. Three pounds
of skim milk to one Of grain Is the
proportion usually recommended. In
other words, balance up the ration.I
When the amount of skim milk to be,
had is limited, best results will follow.

toward obviating losses to farmers
through insufficient and improper feed

put gains on animals during the grow

will they fully recover from the ear

is a costly practice to put growth and
flesh on a stunted animal, as compared
to what could have been done when he

But it is not necessary that yerng

Watch their feed trcughs and see that

Do not feed them in excess, but mako
certain they are contented after each

TAKE CARE OF EWES
DURING THE WINTER
important Duty to Perform to In
sure Lamb Crop to Be Har-
vested in Spring.

The winter care of the flodk is i'm
portant to insure lamb crop to be
harvested in the spring Ewes in good
condition need not be fed grain until
about a month before lambing, when
they should gradually be accustomed
TO it. Ewes in thin or poor condition
should receive from one-fourth to one
half pound of grain daily. Corn alone
is not the best grain ration. A ration
Of six parts corn, three parts wheat
bran, one part linseed oil cake, by
weight, has proved very satisfactory.
A ration of corn. oats and bran. equal
parts by weight, can also be recon-
mended.
The sheep should receive as much
clover or alfalfa hay as they will eat.
The amount of hay eaten can be cut
down by use of corn silage or corn
slower. Two pou,els of clean, sweet
corn silage can be used to replace
about one pound Of hay.
Well cured corn slower is also rel
ished by the ewes. Ordinarily, there
is little danger of the sheep eating too
much of it, if hay is fed once day.
The greatest danger of corn slower
comes from making it the exclusive
feed. Clean salt and water should be
kept before the flock. Sheep should al
ways have a dry, well-bedded floor to
lie on.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1916-01-06

The bulk of the feed used for win
tering stock should be made up of
roughages from the farm. Small
amounts Of concentrates, fed daily
with these feeds, make comparatively
cheap rations entirely suitable to Ger.
tain classes of live stock.
For convenience in planning winter
feeding farm animals may be divided
| into three classes:
I. Mature animals not producing an
| income during winter months.
II. Animals producing an income
| during the winter.
III. Young and growing stock to be
retained ON the farm the following
summer
In Glass l may be included all ma
| ture live stock held on the farm, either
| for breeding purposes, future work
or finishing for market the following
summer.
In Class II may be included work
| horses, COWS producing milk and stock
being fattened for market or condi-
| toned for sale during the winter
months.
In Glass III may be included all
young and growing stock on the farm.
The big saving in the winter feed
bill can be made with Glass /. This
does not mean that animals of this
class should be permitted to come
through the winter in rundown and
weakened condition. Rather than con-
slider such practice it would be far
better to sell the stock in the fall. It
Is meant, however, that they can and
should be maintained on the cheaper
feeds. Roughages, supplemented by a
small amount of concentrates (oil
meal or grain) are in favor for them.
Give the horses, cattle and sheep ac-
cess to cut-over grain fields and straw
stacks, meadows, wooded lots and pas
lures. Horses and sheep may have &C.
cess to husked-out cornfields. In GER
tain sections where losses Of cattle
have been experienced in the past
from the so-called cornstalk disease
farmers should consider this fact be-
fore turning cattle into such cornfelds.
AS the winter advances open the bars
to shelters, feed racks and grain
troughs.
Corn silage will be invaluable at this
time, especially for cattle and sheep.
Keep the feed racks filled with corn
slower, hay and straw, but do not be
wasteful in the feeding.
| The amount of grain to put in the
trough cannot definitely be given. 1t
