organization.
AS an efficiency genius he stands at
the top in the Woodworking lines.
He has built here a model efficiency

sands of timesaving machines. Now it
represents an investment of S. 900, 900.
He has, in this way cut our factory

ed to three pounds, which is an eco
nomical grain ration with good pastur-
age for the pig until he goes into tine
fattening pen at from rs to 125
pounds.
At about SIX months, when green
corn is ready, some begin to haul this
out in the pasture, and the feed is In
creased until the pigs are on full feed.
Others feed ground or chopped feed,
barley or wheat, put the self feeders
right in the pasture lot and let the
pigs make hogs of themselves. Either
way seems to be satisfactory. The
main thing is to give them plenty Of
good feed. While the pig is growing
he should get skimnilk or tankage.
He should have access to salt, ashes,
coal or charcoal at all times. Care
should be exercised in keeping him
clean from lice by dipping. To get the
most money net from q pig one must
keep him coming and get him off early.
To be profitable pigs should make q
more rapid growth than other animals.
The men who depend on corn and
alfalfa soon find that something is
lacking. Their hogs are not develop
ing the size and bone which they
should The absence Of protein and
mineral matter in the ration is re-
sponsible for the slow development Of
pigs. The successful hog raiser en-
deavors to have an abundance Of pro-
tein and mineral matter in the ration
which he feeds his pigs. Lime is an
important mineral. 1t is bone build
er. The legume plants are rich in lime.
Phosphorus is another important ele-
ment which helps develop bone. 1t is
found in tankage, wheat bran. etc.
The main rule for the successful feed
ing of pigs is to give a wide variety.
What one feed does not contain an
other will. In this manner each hog
will receive the feed elements neces-
sary for quick and profitable growth.
The successful hog raiser knows that
the building up of the pigs body is due
to the elements of growth which the
animals digestive organs extract from
the ration given. The careful feeder
leaves nothing to chance.
Exercise and a balanced ration go
together. Pure water is another i'm
portant factor. A hog requires as pure
water as any other animal The sue
cessful hog raiser knows the automatic
fountain is a sanitary utensil which
will pay for itself in a sort time. The
automatic fountain keeps a supply of
fresh water before the pigs at all
hours.

CLEANSE THE POULTRY
HOUSE OF VERMIN

Dipping poultry in an insecticide is
sometimes tried, but is not advised.
With head lice little different line of
treatment is necessary, says the Rural
New Yorker. Blue ointment applied
to the head is effective. Lard is per-
haps the best remedy. Sulphur and
lard are sometimes used, but on chick
ems this is not advised. Frequently a
beginner will use too much sulphur
with the lard. The effect of this is
that the sulphur soon begins to pull
the tender skin Of the chicken, and
this makes sores which seldom heal
and sometimes results in the death of
the bird For head lice it is safer to
use lard alone. sweet oil or blue oint-
ment.
The above remarks apply to body
lice. There is another insect which
causes great annoyance to poultry.
Certain mites not only work on the
body Of the fowl. but also ON the legs.
to cause the trouble known as "scaly
Leg" The roost mites are very small,
but make up for their size in remark
able activity. The body lice bite off
the scales of the skin and work on the
feathers, but the mites, on the other
hand, suck the blood from the animal
and do not bite. The roost mites hide
away during the day in some part of

kind when properly fed will eat just
about as much as the other. Or If
there be any saving, it is so trifling as
between one or the other kind that it
is not worth noticing. If judiciously
provided for and tended from the shell
upward, as all fowls should be cared
for, any Of the larger breeds will make
good eating at the proper age, and the
hens of any one kind will lay an abun-
dance of eggs, take them on the aver
age, throughout the year.
Among any of the pure breeds there
will always be found some exception
ally good ones for breeding purposes
or for exhibition. All these finer spec
linens will command the highest cur
rent prices among fancierS or anna
tours who are about to commence the
propagation of pure stock and who are
disposed to pay better prices for such
prime specimens. At the same time
the imperfect birds as to form, color
and other standard requirements come
to good size at maturity and will pay
much better for their keeping at the
right killing age than will the runts
Of the small barnyard fowls, which
cost quite as much to feed and to bring
them to the proper state for slaughter
ing.
The improved hens will in q season
lay one-third more eggs and of larger
size usually than will the dunghills.
AS broilers the young cOckerels of the
heavy breeds are fitted for this pur-
pose at a much earlier age and so are
far more valuable in this respect than
are the lesser sized or common varie-
| ties.
In any view, then, it has come to be
we'll determined that pure bred fowls
are the most economical, the most val
liable and the most desirable for all
purposes, and, although any Of these
| better breeds cost a little more at the
outset, the product they yield in twelve
months in eggs and meat alone, say
ing nothing of the income that may

To think or argue differently would

and research that have been given to
poultry culture for fifty years by ex-
perts all over the country in poultry
plants as well as in colleges. Their
work has all been in vain if the pure
breds are not better than scrubs.

Grain Mixture For Hoppers.

Our growing stock is always fed by
the hopper method. A large self feed
ing, nonwasting wooden outdoor hop
per is placed halfway between two
colony houses. These hoppers will this
year contain the following grain mix
lures: Sixty pounds corn, Kaffir or
milo; thirty pounds heavy oats, thirty
pounds barley and thirty pounds good
grade wheat screenings. The follow
ing dry mash mixture is found in an
other compartment Of the same hop
per: Sixty pounds corn or milo meal,
fifty pounds wheat middlings, thirty
pounds wheat bran, twenty pounds oil
meal or cottonseed meal, forty pounds
beef scrap and one pound salt Grit,
oyster shell and fine graduated bone
are kept before them all the time in
separate compartments of the same
hopper. They are fed all the milk,
sweet or sour, that they will consume.

1t is very necessary that the little
pigs have plenty Of exercise and all
the sunlight that can be given them.
Do not allow the pigs to run out dur
ing a cold rain. If possible, provide
green feed or roots. These keep the
SOW healthy and cheaper the RATION.
Encourage the pigs to eat grain after
they are three or four weeks old.
Build a creep for them, so they can
feed alone. At this age feed for bone
and muscle. Give them all the skim
milk you can. If skimmilk is not
available give them some meal and
plenty Of pasture. In about eight or
ten weeks the pigs will have practical
ly weaned themselves. After they have
been successfully weaned the most per-

the poultry house, usually on the bot
tom side of the rooSt or where the
roost is attached to the wall. There
is no question about the great damage
done by these mites. Hens have been
killed by them. They cause hens to
stop laying. and without doubt they
kill and stunt chickens. Cases have
been reported where these mites annoy
men, and it is not uncommon for them
to attack other farm animals, such as
horses. They are not particularly &C.
tive in cold weather, but on warm
come out in swarms.
Professor Lamson says he has found
that kerosene evaporates so quickly
that more or less of its effectiveness Is
lost In a few days. and the mites be-
come as numerous as ever. The va
riOus animal dips give good satisfac-
ton when thoroughly used. The coal
tar dips, however, must be used with
caution, as too heavy an application
will sometimes result In eye trouble
for the bird. To avoid this the best
time for cleaning the house is when
the stock is changed from one house
to another, which will give several
days for making a thorough applica-
tlon and letting it dry out. The apph-
cation of a fat which will smear well
on the underside of the roost will
greatly help out. The main point is to
see that all cracks in the house and
especially the roost support used are
thoroughly drenched with a mite kill
ing material
