RUSSIANS MENACE
3 TURK CITIES
Ottoman Campaign Be
coming Purely Defensive,
Petrograd Reports.

Petrograd via London, May A.
Since the fall OF Trebizond the three
Russian army groups in Asia Minor
have been making steady progress tow
ard Baiburt, Erzingan and Diarbekr,
and it seems highly probable that these
three detectives of the Caucasus armies
will be reached in the near future.
A majority OF the Turkish forces and
reinforcements are concentrated against
the armies Of the Russian centre, pre-
pared to defend Erzingan. and the next
important engagement probably VIII be
fought in this neighborhood.
A remarkable feature Of the Russian
operations in this theatre has been the
close cooperation and the even char-
sctcr Of the advance achieved by sep
arate army groups from the Black Sea
coast to Bitlis. Although separated by
high mountain ranges and embarrassed
by all sorts Of Typographical difficulties
the Russians have succeeded in con-
Quoting their movements in perfect
unison, defeating all Turkish designs TO
flank and cut of the seacoast forces
from those operating elsewhere.
The daring Turkish plans for re-
sumption OF tho offensive and the re-
capture Of lost territory in Armenia
now appear TO have collapsed. and the
Turkish campaign, seemingly, has be
come purely q defensive one. The sole
aim OF the Turks AZ present apparently
is 20 defend the three strongly fortined
points of Baiburt, Erzingan and Dlar-
bekr against a further Russian ad-
vance.
The local Turkish offensive in the
Urumiah region, as reported oinciaily,
is regarded as an isolated man9uvre and
without important relation 70 the main
situation.
IN the direction Of Baiburt.' says to-
days official report, I'VE repuised a

WHEN TO WEAN LITTLE PIGS
Many Of Best Hog Men Take All

Should the pigs be weaned at six to
eight weeks of age, or should they be
allowed to run with the sows until
the sows wean them?
Sows which raise two filters a year
had best wean their spring litter at
six to eight weeks of age. Some farm
ers who keep sows only for one litter
the sows may be dried of rapidly and
fattened.

10 parts Of tankage or wheat meal,
parts of oats and parts of oil

1t should certainly be fed, especially
just after weaving time.
Many Of our best hog men now wean
their pigs early and wean them all at
the same time. The day before wean-
ing they put the sows and pigs to-
gether in a pen by themselves and give
the sows little or no food that day.
The pigs are allowed to drain the
sows' udders and the next day the
pigs are put in good pasture by
themselves and given a nutritious ra'
ton, skim milk being fed II it ii
available. The sows are put on short
pasture and for the first day or two
are given plenty to drink but little to
eat. In a short time they are dried
up completely and they may be given
a good ration to get them condition
for breeding or for market.
