1t is all very well, when you have
nothing to do but kill time, to talk
about keeping the boys on the farm,
but you might as we'll spend your
time splitting at crack. Boys will
stay on a farm as well anywhere, il
they receive decent treatment at
home. The boy who is yanked out
Of bed by the hair, kicked out to
milk and cuffed in to breakfast, as
a preliminary to being popped thru
in a field all day, is not likely to be
consumed by his love for the glories
of agriculture-nor for his sire.
Give the boy fair show, and he'll
stay with you till the COWS come
home. If you are 50 mean he can't
stay at home, don't you go to your
neighLors with a hypocritical sniiflt
and tell about your boys ingratitud'
after you have raised him. -Rochel

Go Slow in Feeding High-Priced
Corn to Hogs

The farmers of the South are be-
ing advised to breed all brood sows
and arrange to produce as many
hogs as possible. This is good adj
vice provided these hogs are not to
be raised on high-priced grains, fit
for human food. With corn at
$1.75 a bushel, as at present, hogs
would need to sell for II to is
cents a pound live weight to finan-
cially justify q man in feeding corn
to hogs, and with human food
scarce and needed by our allies, il
is doubtful if any one is morally OF
economically justified in feeding
more than the smallest practicable
amount Of human foodstuffs to hogs,
regardless Of prices. We ought tc
raise more hogs and especially
should every brood SOW produce an
early fall litter, provided we pro.
duce grazing crops from which the
hogs may get a large part of either
feed. The crops should be grown
to save the corn and in order to
produce the hogs more economical
ly.
We are likely to produce more
corn than usual this year, if TIE
season is favorable, but if much Of
this is fed to hogs it will be an eco
nomic loss as well as a loss Of more
good human food than the hogs
can make out of it. With velvet
beans in every acre Of corn, OF
with soy beans and peanuts, cheap.
er pork can be made by feeding
only q small amount of corn, and
unless we are going to feed the hogs
in this manner we had better moi
raise them. for it is a waste of hui
man food to give hogs a full ration
of corn and it is not ecomical here
in the South where corn is nearly
always high-priced. Provide crops
for fattering the hogs this fall
which they can harvest instead Of
feeding corn in a dry lot or pen
