RAILROADS ASK
SHIPPERS help
WITH CAR

Walter d. Hines. director general |
of railroads. today authorized the fol-
lowing statement, asking the further
cooperation OF shippers and receivers
of freight in promoting freight car
efficiency:
During the war no one was
more periodically helpful than the
American shipper. With zeal and
efficiency he did his part in the COM
mon cause.
The railroad administration had
excellent opportunity to observe this
attitude during the war and has ap-
preciated heartily the subsequent
continued cooperation of the great
majority of the shippers.
"The time has now come Cor re-
newed efforts by both the railroad
administration and the shippers and
receivers of freight so that the ma
tons transportation service may be
rendered with the greatest satisfac-
ton possible under the circumstances
"An unusually heavy grain and
coal movement, deferred repair and
the construction of public highway In
all sections OF the country and con
centrated requirements of suddenly
reviving business combined with
the usual transportation requirements
at This time of the year, threaten q
serious lack of transportation facili.
ties unless all parties interested co.
operate in securing the greatest pos
sible utility from the existing limit
ed transportation facilities.
I'm this connection attention il
invited to the following extract from
, recent public statement of thu

THE UNwEANED PIGS.

National Crop Improvement ServiceI
AT two or three weeks Of age the
pigs will begin to manifest an inter-
est in the food Of the SOW. At this
time unweaned pigs should have a low
set trough barred to keep away the
bigger pigs, and they should be en-
couraged to go to 1t to satisfy their
hunger. The use therein Of sweet milk
and little mill feed or pig meal will
soon induce them to eat a great deal
In this way, thus experimenting the
milk OF the SOW and Fastening their
sturdy growth.
WEAVING at four weeks Of age is usu-
ally not of good practice; If not &C
tually cruel, the change Is too sudden
for best results.
Two filters year may be had If the
pigs are encouraged to eat while still
nursing, and II they are not weaned
until six or eight weeks Of age. This
probably is the better practice.
When pigs are left with the SOW for
periods as long as ten to twelve weeks
she will wean them herself, but Ii is
time wasted, for two ntters are Inn
possible.
When weaving takes place the SOW
should be returned to the pigs two or
three times so that the udders may
be MIXED out.

Music and Thinking. .

About 1000 A. d. a monk in an
Italian monastery had been thinking
about the long, laborious task Of train
ing singers for the church service. Ten
years were required for a singer to
memorize words and music OF the va
rious chants and hymns usedl There
was no system for learning q new
tune independent Of the words.
And while he was thinking he heard
his choirboys practicing one Of their
lessons, hymn that rose In pitch with
the first syllable Of each successive
line, just as the scale series was
formed.
Thought fashedl
And the result Of his thinking was
the use of the syllables ut (changed
to do later), re, mi, ia, sol, La, Sd to
facilitate scale learning. The imme-
date result was that Guido's choirboys
learned all their tunes-and could take
new ones-in six months as against
ten years in the old way.
And the indirect result is that boys
and girls in the schools Of this country
learn the scales by a process similar
to that thought out by a monk In Italy
nearly 1000 years ago.

HOGS AND PoTAToEA

National Crop Improvement Service.1
Because Of the economy with which
the pig converts its food into edible
flesh, this animal steadily increases I'm
importance as our population becomes
more dense.
Practically every farmer should raise
and fatten pigs, for family consumption
IL not for market, upon culls and sur
plus potatoes and sweet potatoes, in
order TO proftably conserve a valuable
nutritive material that would other
wise be wasted. Pigs will properly
utilize many other by-products of the
kitchen and garden wastes, as well
as grains that cannot otherwise be
prof1tably disposed Of.
We should dismiss the idea that
profitable hog raising belongs to the
corn belt only. Denmark raises no
corn, yet produces more pork Of the
highest quality than any other equal
area In the world. The South can
produce hogs more cheaply than any
other place on earth.
Pigs produce a pound Of gain from
four to five pounds Of dry matter while
fattening cattle require from ten to Il
pounds. The pig yields from rs to 80
per cent Of his live weight as dressed
carcass: the steer only 50 to Is per
cent.
No other line Of stock farming can
so quickly be brought to profitable pro
duction with limited capital invested
In stock and equipment as can the
making Of meat from the pig. In many
cases the grower should not only fat.
ten his pigs but also slaughter them
and market the cured products, OBJ
tanning increased profits even though
the undertaking be q small one.

SELF FEEDERS.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
hog raisers with self feeders can
keep more hogs than they could 9TH
erwise. The members Of the boys pig
club and the county agent should con-
fer with the lumber yard and prepare
plans and specifications which will
avoid many Of the evils incident to the
average feeder built without thought.
In some counties building bees have
been held by the county agent and in
one county nearly a thousand self
feeders of the proper kind were built,
which caused an immediate increase
Of 2,6O0 more hogs on account Of the
labor saving effected.

FEEDING THE MOTHER SOW.

National Crop Improvement Service1
The feeding Of the SOW that has just
narrowed should be light for four or
five days, but she should gradually be
brought to full feed as the demands
Of the pigs and the milk dow increases.
Some Of the coarser feeds may give
place to richer concentrates such as
skim milk, buttermilk, tankage, mid
dlings, crushed oats, ground barley,
peas and oil meal. It is often cheaper
to buy these concentrates in a COM
merciAl mixture when the proper In
gradients are difficult to obtain, or the
feeder La inexperienced In handling
them separately.
These feeds may be offered In q
watery slop. The feeding Of the SOW
should be liberal, as at no other time
can the growth Of the pigs be pushed
90 rapidly or economically.

A GENTLE MOTHER PIG.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
One great advantage Of the pig club
La that every animal becomes a great
pet. Sows should be accustomed to
being handled and they will soon be-
come quite gentle, IL not already so.
A savage SOW is a menace and II she
cannot be tanned she had better be dis
posed Of. When SOW is used to hav-
Ing the pig club boy about, she can
be cared for at narrowing time quite
easily. Otherwise they are apt to be
cross and excited If one goes into their
pen. The friendly SOW always wants
someone around.
The little pigs can be put I'm
a basket and kept warm or even
taken into the house until the
narrowing is over and the SOW
is ready to take care Of them. Prob
ably one pig per litter can thus be
saved-that means increasing the pig
crop by 20 per cent.
II a SOW is to be put In new quarters
before narrowing, move her early
enough so that she will have time to
get accustomed to the pen.
Use short straw or chair for bed
ding.
Make a fender Of a by 6 nailed to
the wall 8 or inches from the floor
so that the little pigs may have a
chance to slide under and save them
selves when mother lurches down upon
them. More pigs are needed and many
little pigs can be saved by this ar
rangement.

A BALANCED HOG RATION.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
"The young growing pig weighing 80
to go pounds should eat about one
pound Of protein for every four pounds
OF carbohydrates equivalent" says
Professor Evvard Of the Iowa agricul-
tural college.
"When the pig reaches 100 pounds
In weight about one pound Of protein
to five pounds Of carbohydrates.
Eat 100 pounds for each pound Of
protein six pounds Of carbohydrate.
'aThe fairly well-grown hog, 240 to
800 pounds, in fattening, will do well
at one pound to eight pounds Of carbo-
hydrates."

A PRACTICAL FEEDER FOR HOGS.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
In building q self-feeder do not make
the hopper taper too much, because
when gluten feed or shorts, or other
soft feed is used, 1t may become
clogged and have to be poked down.
Build it large enough at the bottom,
with Stats to keep the pigs from vast
ing the feed, and with partitions to
serve several kinds of feed at once.
This will allow for both tankage and
gluten feed to run freely.

BEGIN TO RAISE HOGS.

National Crop Improvement Servtce.1
Those who have not been raising
their pork and bacon should get good
gilt as soon as possible and begin.
1t is hard to estimate the value Of a
good brood SOW, which can produce
two filters Of pigs a year. 1t will be
more economical in the end to buy q
purebred and raise good pigs. You can
always sell registered stock because
the demand is greater than the supply.
AS a rule purebred sows or gifts are
better feeders and will respond to good
care better than scrubs. All swine
should be purebred, but not necessarily
registered, although registering adds to
their sale value.
With bred gilt, or one to be bred
to farrow early in the spring, it need
not take one long to raise enough hogs
for the farm meat supply.
We will not miss our German frank
furters If every farm home will learn
how to cure meat and to make pork
sausage and specialties. Every produc-
er of pork should cure his own hams
and sides-at least enough to meet
the demands of his own household and
his own hired labor. Home cured hams
and bacon are always In demand
among your neighbors. provided Of
course that you do a good job. You
cannot expect to get a good price for
inferior work.
Hogs will turn pasture and grain in
to more and quicker meat than other
animals and do if most ooonopofnoIIr
Of all. Start now and start right. Get
good animals and interest the boys In
the game.

"Meats in Storage"

Every working day of the year
100000 pounds of meat are required
to supply home and export needs-and
only 10 per cent of this is exported.
These facts must be kept in mind
when considering the u. S. Bureau of
Markets report that on June /, 1919,
there were 1,348,OOO.OOO pounds of
meats in cold storage. If the meat in
storage was placed on the market it
would only be 20 days supply.
This meat is not artiicially withheld
from trade channels to maintain or
advance prices.
Meats in storage consist Of
IS per cent (approximate) hams, bacon, etc.,
In process OF curing. 1t takes 80 to 90
days in pickle or salt to complete the
process.
10 per cent is frozen pork that is to be cured
later in the year.
6 per cent is lard. This is only four-fifths
of pound per capita, and much of it will
have to 60 to supply European needs.
1o per cent is frozen beef and lamb part of
which is owned by the Government and
was intended chiefly FOR overseas ship
ment. If this were ali diverted TO domes-
tic trade channels, it would be only
w lbs. per capta-a days supply.
1000
From this it will be seen that meats
in storage" represent merely I'M
finished goods in process of curing and
the working supply necessary to assure
the consumer a steady flow of finished
product.
