Farming Hints.

Sow turnips this week for pigs feed. The turnips will save half to three-fourths of the corn that the pigs will need without them. Sow two pounds of seed an acre. Sow every two weeks until April list. Sow on new ground or land that is rich. It is waste of seed to SOW on poor land without maturing it we'll.
 Early Milan is the earliest variety and is ready to feed in 60 days after seeding. The supply of seed of this sort is short. The Purple Top Strap Leaf is the standard variety. It is ready to feed in about 70 days after sowing.
 Turnips yield on good soil about 150 bushels an acre and this quantity has a feed value for pigs equal to 25 bushels of corn. From these figures the swine growers can deter mine how much to SOW. The turnips are off the land early enough to be followed by corn or any other regular crop.
 Turnips should be cooked with as little water as possible and not have them burn. When they become thoroughly cooked, let them become cool enough to eat. Then mix a little grain with them and feed warm, but not hot. Do not cook the grain. Cooking reduces the food value of grain, but increases that of the turnips. Pigs do not thrive on turnips alone, but do we'll on turnips and a small quantity of grain.

closing up the work of what has been
designated as section l" of the Sept.
