WITH THE FARMERS.
By GEORGE.
Whey for Making Pork.


Danish bacon has long been consid-
cred the finest in the world. Danish
Bacon is produced on barley. That
corn can be economically replaced
with ground barley and that the great
dairy by-products, skimmilk and
whey, are the most valuable supple
ments to barley as a feed. is the state
ment of #. B. Morrison and G. Bob
stedt, who have conducted the barley
feeding trials at the Wisconsin Elk
pertinent station.
In one trial, several lots of pigs
we're fed to compare the values Of
various supplements to barley. Wheat
middlings and linseed meal made
rather @poor showing, the pigs gain
ing about IL pounds a head per day
Tankage gave much better results,
the pigs gaining 2 pounds daily.
Skimmilk however, was still better.
Pigs fed about / pound of skimmilk
for each pound of barley gained 81
pounds day. With ground barley
at $.92 a bushel skimmilk was worth
$.68 hundred pounds. The surprise
of the trial came in the results from
barley and whey Pigs fed about Q
pounds of SKINNED whey for each
pound of ground barley gained rs
pounds per head daily, actually more
than any other lot. Whey was worth
$.44 a hundred pounds. The pigs in
this trial weighed 129 pounds at the
start. Had they been younger a great
er proportion of skimmilk or whey
would have been needed to balance
the ration.
r. N. r..
t. N. T., that new explosive. i, o.
x. for land clearing purposes. This
is the opinion of John Swenehart,
who has been trying this out all sum-
mer. 1t is 0. K. for blasting rocks
and stumps from the lands Of Wiscon-
sin. The government has allotted
100000 pounds to wisconsin for this
purpose. This will be distributed at
sos per pound in 100 pound lots, on
ly. The county agents are distribu-
tors in this matter If you want
particulars, write G. W. Davies, Lam
caster.
Get Ready for Lime.
Now is a good time to make plans
for the use of ground limestone for
next year. If you have not had your
soil tested, better send sample to
the County Agent at Lancaster or
bring one to the office when you. come
in. Lime should be applied on plow-
ed ground and this may be done at
any season of the year.
The Boys Corn Show.
The boys of Grant county certain
ly had fine showing of high grade
corn at the Grant County Fair. The
"a exhibits were very uniform and
were credit to the pupils exhibit
ing The winners of the first five
places in the contest are as follows
1. Ella Hoffman; 2. Gerald Zenz;
3. Leo Dressler; 4. Mervyn Stein
hoff: 5. Mark Hoffman.
Most of the prominent seed corn
men of Wisconsin and the middle
west were started on their success
full careers in some such way as this
by entering corn at county fair or
local show. The "a exhibitors this
year will do well to save a large
| quantity of good, purebred seed corn.
There has always been demand for
the best in any line.
