FEEDING YOUNG PIGS.

bers how TO raise pigs for breeding
purposes, DR.. S. S. Buckley of the
Maryland Agricultural Extension Serv.
ice says:
THE pigs which are selected at
weaving time for breeding animals re-
quire different feeding and manage
ment practices, than do those which
are intended for meat purposes. It is
very important to clearly understand
the reason for this. Breeding animals
are intended to be kept for a number
of years-just as long as they remain
good breeders. Meat animals are in.
tended for slaughter and the sooner
they can be gotten to suitable slze
for butchering at the least cost, the
more profit there is in the work
Again, breeding animals must be well
developed-strong bone and muscle
and possess a great amount of vital
ity-a strong constitution-an album
dance Of energy-if they are to be sue.
cessful as breeders. Meat animals
only need to have bone and muscle,
sufficient to carry the weight which
will be added. If their flesh is grown
quickly, the meat will be tender moist
and of fine flavor-if the growth is
slow the meat is coarse, dry and of
poor flavor.
"The pigs must have plenty of range
in order to get exercise, fresh air and
sunshine. The kinds of feed to give
them will depend upon the kind Of
pasture they are grazed upon. If pas,
tured on clover, alfalfa, beans, peas,
etc, they will not require so much feed
such as meat meal, tankage, etc, with
the grain; but if not, they must have
these The aim must be to produce
growth, with exercise to harden and
make the flesh firm. Fat producing
feed gives this appearance to pen pigs
but the flesh is soft and largely fat
Such pigs are not desirable breeding
animals
"a grain ration to be used in con-
nection with good pasture for pigs up
TO rs pounds, may be made with:
Cornmeal ............ 80 pounds
Wheat middlings. ... 20 pounds
Tankage ............. 10 pounds
After this, feed whole corn and
allow about one pound each of tankage
and middling for every 10 pounds OF
corn. Never allow breeding animals
to get very fat, and never allow them
to get very thin. Never breed gifts
before they are eight months old, and
not then, unless they are in good con.
dition."

Reasons Why You Should Patronize
this Horse.
He is an extra good individual and
represents the most popular breed in
the country today. His pedigree repre-
sents the best blood of his breed. His
quality is unsurpassed and he has the
best disposition of any stallion in the
country. He transmits this disposition
to his colts. He is tried horse and a
sure foal getter His colts are easy to
sell and bring good prices: they have
high life, plenty of vim. but are easy to
handle. He will stay here and give you
a chance to breed to him again,
We will exercise the greatest care in
handling mares. but will not be respon-
sible for accidents.

LEG WEAKNESS IN
YOUR CHICKENS
MAY BE PREVENTED BY FEEDING
LIBERAL SUPPLY OF GRANU.
LATED OR CRACKED BONE
STRENGTHENS FRAME WORK
Feeding Of Bone Made Necessary BY
Lack Of Plenty OF Mineral
Matter In Artificial
Feeds.

College Park, May AT the begin
ming of the growing season for poul-
try, Poultryman R. H. Waite of the
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station calls attention to the import
ance of providing mineral matter in
the feed. He says;
Young chicks grow very rapidly as
animals They, therefore, require a
larger percentage of mineral matter
In their feed, Practically all feeds
contain small amount of mineral
matter, and the slower growing ami
mails can get enough from the ordinary
feeds because they do not require SO
much in given time.
"If CHICKS DO not have enough min
eral matter they seem TO keep on
growing just the same. They try to
strengthen their bones by developing
other tissue, but when their flesh has
grown very far ahead q their bones
they are unable to stand up and leg
weakness results, 1t is a good deal
like trying to build a house without
using frame work. The chick has to
have a frame work of bones to sus-
tain the other parts of its body.
"Under natural conditions, bugs and
other insects furnish all the mineral
matter necessary, but where the
chicks are raised under artificial con-
ditions considerable attention should
be given to a supply of mineral mat
er, especially if the chicks are grown
rapidly.
In some experiments conducted at
this experiment station a few years
ago it was found that a very small
proportion of graduated bone was
sufficient to keep chicks from develop
ing leg weakness, while the chick
pens, which received no bone, went
to pieces very quickly. Granulated or
cracked dry bone is inexpensive, and
the chicks require a very small amount.
Therefore, l would advise keeping this
bone before them where they can help
themselves as they require it."
