ATTENTION TO SOWS
BEFORE NARROWING
Animal Does Best When Kept in
Healthy Condition-Avoid
Heavy Corn Feeding.

The way a SOW is handled before
narrowing has much to do with the
value of her litter, according to the
University of Nebraska Agricultural
college.
The SOW does best when she is kept
in healthy condition, but is not al
lowed to become too fat. Heavy corn
feeding makes sows fat, and they are
not likely to produce large, healthy
pigs. For this reason breeding stock
must be separated from fattening pigs
if best results are secured, Feeds
that produce bone and muscle are
best. Any one of the following ra-
lions, supplemented by alfalfa hay in
the rack, will give good results:

tible part of the plant, increases rap
idly as the plants grow larger Green
wheat, oats, rye and barley are gen
orally classified as carbonaceous
roughages. When young, however,
these contain a high percentage of
protein, and should be classified as nj
trogenous roughages in the early
stages of GROWTH Because the small
grains when young are so nutritious
and are green when frost has killed
clover, they are ideal plants to grow
for pigs during late fall and early
spring.
Canadian Field Peas.
Canadian field peas, when sown in
conjunction with some other kind of
grain Goats, rye, etc. make an excel
ent early crop for hogs. The seed
should be sown in April or early May
and if conditions are right the crop
will be ready to pasture in about thirty
Or forty days. Hogs clean up the peas
and vines very well. The vines that
are left on the ground, together with
the manure, enrich the soil and add
more humus to it. The great value of
peas as pasture for swine is far too
little understood.
Hairy Vetch.
Hairy vetch is legume Of increas-
ing Importance, especially as a forage
Nfor hogs. 1t flourishes to a surprising
degree in Washington, Oregon and the
southern states. The seed should be
sown in the fall with rye or oats. Oc-
tober is the best month in which to
plant this crop. When the winters are
too severe, vetch is not generally
grown. 1t succeeds wherever Cana
dian field peas do well, but the field
peas are usually preferable.
Rape.
Rape as forage crop is highly rec
commended for hogs whenever it can
be grown successfully. 1t should not
be planted in the fall of the year with
ire expectation of its surviving the
winter. In most localities it is best
to sow rape in April or May. If there
is enough moisture in the soil to ger
inmate the Seed, 1t is generally ready
to pasture in about six weeks. When
pigs are put on rape, it generally
takes them some time before they ac-
quire taste for 1t. Young pigs do
not make as good use of rape pasture
as older ones. The hogs should not

(From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
To make hog production most profit
able, the farmer should provide pas
ture for his hogs whenever possible
The earlier in the year green feed can
be supplied the better. Swine of any
age relish green feed, and it's use al
ways reduces the cost of produc-
ing gains on hogs. In addition, it
keeps the animals in good, thrifty con-
dition. The information given in this
article, however, applies only to the
northern part of the United States,
particularly those states and sections
of states lying north Of parallel 80.
The best crops to seed in early
spring are wheat, oats, rye, barley,
rape, Canadian field peas and vetch.
Any of the cereals do well planted
singly or in combination with rape,
Canadian peas and vetch. II certain
sections, where these crops will sur
vive the winter, they can be sown the
previous fall. In sections where it Is
impossible to maintain a stand over
winter, the crops mentioned can be
ssown in early spring as soon as the
ground is fit.
The pigs should be turned in to pas
ture the cereal crops when the plants
attain a height of about six to eight
inches, and taken off when the plants
reach such height that the pigs be-

Know How to Handle and
Dress Wounds on Animals.
(By L. S. BACKUs.)
rst aid is most important.


Quick healing leaves smaller scars
Don't use dust or lime to stop bleed
ing.
Bleeding that can be stopped with
powders will soon stop itself anyhow.
Frequent washing irritates wounds,
prevents prompt healing, and may
cause proud flesh. Small concealed
are the most likely to cause death.
Find them and keep them clean and
we'll disinfected.
Swab out deep cuts with pure tine
ture of iodin as soon as it can be Sc
cured and they Will take care of them
selves then if the normal pus discharge
Is removed.
A long continued discharge from
wound indicates an abscess pocket, o
bone injury, or the presence of a snag
or something else that should not be
in the wound. Call a veterinarian.
AS soon as bleeding has been
stopped, wash the wound with a pint
of warm water to which two teaspoon
fuls of creolin, lysol carbolic acid, or
some similar disinfectant has been
added.
A waund should be healed in about
three weeks. If it is doing well the
swelling will gradually go down, and
the discharge will be odorless, thin,
and bloody at first, and thicker and
whittier later.
Antitoxin will prevent lockjaw af-
ter nail or other puncture wounds. If
not so prevented, very few of the lock-
jaw cases ever recover. The hard
crust lime forms over the surface Of
a wound favors lockjaw by shutting
out the air.
Bleeding from leg can always be
stopped by tying small rope loosely
about the wound, then twisting it
with a stick or small rod. Tighten till
bleeding stops. Apply bandages and
remove the cord if possible. If band
ages cannot be applied, prevent seri
Gus bleeding by pressing the fingers
against the cut blood vessels until
veterinarian can be called.

be turned on the rape until the plants
are at least ten inches high. Rape
is very satisfactory forage plant for
hogs, because it grows rapidly and is
a cheap green feed.
Grain for Hogs on Pasture.
While the cost of producing pork
may be reduced by the use of green
feed, it is desirable to feed grain in
addition. There is no time that grain
can be so profitably fed to a hog as
when he is young and running on pas
ture. Under such conditions it is pos
sible to secure Is pounds of gain for
each bushel of grain fed. During the
spring, summer and early fall months
from one-half to three-fourths of a
full feed of grain will be sufficient for
hogs running on pasture.
