PROPER HEIGHT OF HOG PENS.
Plans Should Depend Upon Latitude,
J. y. Sun and Time Of Year.

To get tho most sunlight into q hog
house at narrowing time and the next
few weeks after, the height Of the WIN
dows from the floor, II the house runs
east and west, must be varied accord
Ing to the latitude or distance from
the equator.
II farmer living near Fort Madi-
son wants his pigs to farrow on Jan. l.
he should build the window four feet
above the door In order to flood the
entire floor Of an eight-foot house with
sunlight. At lMarshalltown, 1t would
have to be only three feet and nine
inches high. while at Baskerville IL
could be three feet and six inches. II
these three farmers wanted their sows
to farrow March IT, the windows in
the Fort Madison house would need to
be eight feet. eleven inches high. while
the Marshalltown one would be eight
eet and five inches and the Esther
willie one, eight feet.
Windows need to be so constructed
hat for the latitude Of the farm and
or the season of narrowing. the light
will be admitted in proper amounts.
To enable a farmer to figure out for
his own farm and narrowing date, a
table has been worked out by the farm
engineering experts at Iowa State Col
lege that gives the data for three diff
ferent sections Of Iowa, north. central
and south, for narrowing dates rang
Ing from Jan. to May 1.
This is prepared in the form OF a
blueprint. A second sheet includes a
map Of Iowa, showing the latitude Of
every county In the state, together
with a method Of working out the ex-
act height needed for the windows In
any locality. These sheets will be fur
nished at cost, about s cents each.
