HELP SOW SAVE PIGS
narrowing Pen Should Be
Equipped With Wooden Rails.
Prevents Mother From crowding Lit
tie Fellows to Death-Provide
Good Shelter From Cold and
Rain-Havc Solid Floor.

We are asked by the president to
increase the production of our farms.
In the face of the fact that the plea
came almost too late for some farmers
to radically change their plans, the
acreage for cultivated crops has been
wonderfully increased. The five and
ten-acre corners OF stump, or hillside,
land which had previously been con-
sidcred not worth the trouble have
been broke for cultivation.
A few farmers who have every avail
able acre under cultivation must con-
tent themselves in trying to raise more
to the acre and in conserving all they
can.
In this connection an effort to save
the little pigs ut narrowing time is I'M
doubtedly a profitable and a patriotic
method conserving the food supply.
Contrary to some of the older farm
ers' ideas, do not let the brood SOW,
which is to farrow, make her bed
around an old straw or hay stack. Pro-
vide a good shelter, well protected
from cold and rain, and, preferably,
having solid floor.
Do not let the SOW root q deep hole
for bed. She can be given a gen.
erOus amount of straw for bedding at
first, just to satisfy her animal in

Rails Save Little Pigs.

stinct. Later when she starts to far
row it is wise TO remove much of
the bedding.
The narrowing pen should be
equipped with rails, as shown in the
drawing. These rails may be made of
2 by pieces nailed so that they are
parallel with the floor, with six inches
clearance underneath and with four
inches or more between the rail and
the wall.
The purpose of this rail as well as
the removal of superfluous bedding
is to prevent the SOW from crowding
the little pigs to death. The rail per-
mits the little fellows to crawl behind
and get out.
Personally I find that "watchful
waiting" Is the best policy with far
rowing brood sows. They usually start
to farrow few hours after they
commence to make their bed. Then
an hour or so spent in caring for the
animals frequently saves several of
the offspring. After two or three pigs
ire narrowed the mother usually gets
up, remakes her bed and turns over.
At this time she pays little attention
10 the pigs that have come and it is
best to watch them. After the sow Is
through narrowing there is little dan
ger of her lying on the pigs.

GOOD SYSTEM IS DESIRABLE
of Improbable Fowls-cuII Out
Undesirables.

Very few farmers practice sys-
tematic plan of disposing of their
fowls after they have ceased to be
productive, although 1t is well known
that fowls of the heavier breeds,
such as the Plymouth Rocks, cease
to produce profitable number Of
eggs at the end of their second laying
year. This holds true of the lighter
breeds, such as the LeghOrns, at the
end of their third laying year. COnse-
quently, If efforts were made to dis
pose of all females when their best
laying days were over, large guam
tity Of poultry meat would be placed
on the market. All poorly developed
chickens should likewise be culled out
and used as meat. This way of dis
posing Of Improbable fowls would
allow the farmer to feed his grain to
younger and more productive fowls.

days or special holidays In one OF
more important commercial regions
OF the earth. Nor is this an unusual
condition created by the war. We
are accustomed to jump remarkable
conditions into the category OF war
evils these days. On the contrary,
some of the fighting nations have for
the time being stripped their decks of
minor and unusually supertiuOus holi-
days.
Ever since man was condemned to
earn his bread by the sweat OF his
brow he has been putting In a lot Of
spare time trumping up methods Of
beating the game. Next to working
into the bOsss job the invention OF the
holiday has been one of his ablest
little achievements in this line. Like
wise ever since bosses and holidays
evolved, along about history's sun
rise, the former have been cursing
the latter as troublesome breaks in

holidays had become so numerous
that they seriously interfered with
Industrial pursuits. A valuable re-
suit of the Reformation not generally
appreciated was the abolition of
large portion of these holidays.
But as time went on political
