Common Roundworms of Hogs--a,
Male; b, Female.

rs follows: Pigs weighing less than
90 pounds, one-half tenspoonful; pigs
weighing so to 100 pounds, one tea
spoonful; large hogs, two teaspoon
fuls. Each pig should be dosed sep
nrately IL the best results are to be
obtained. Castor oil should always be
given with oil of American wOriiiseed.
other lnXntivcs are not satisfactory.
Dangerous to Drench Hogs.
Drcnchlng hogs is dangerous, ms
they are liable to get the remedy into
the lungs. With sufficient assistance
pigs may be held, the mouth kept open
by means OF couple OF loops of wire
or rope, or leather straps, and the
medicine given In a tablespoon OF Il
large Kitchen spoon. BY this method,
though IL is troublesome, one mny be
certain that each pig gets his proper
dose. After dosing with the above
mixture pigs may be fed and watered.
REPEAT the treatment in ten days.
Change Pastures Frequently.
Healthy hogs become infected with
intestinal worms from feed, water and
soil which have been infested by the
dropDlngs from infected hogs. Ere
quent change of pasture is one of the
best means of reducing worm infesta-
ton to minimum. Hogs, however,
should not be allowed to run ut large
on open range, as this fayors the
spread of hog cholera.
Swine can be raised when they are
confined In limited quarters if the
quarters are kept clean. but they will
40 much better and stay in better
health II they have plenty of pasture.
Divide the pasture into convenient
areas, SO that the hogs can be shifted
from one pasture 10 another. This
not only provides fresh pasture, but
affords an opportunity to dislnfect
the pastures by blowing and reseeding
or by exposure to the sun and weather.
