PASTURE CROPS FOR THE HOGS


am young farmer who has taken
charge of a stock farm in southern
Arkansas. There is plenty mast and
wild grass here to keep common hog
alive, but to raise hogs successfully
one must grow pasture and feed crops.
We have fine herd Of Durocs anc
find 1t a great saving in both feed and
labor to raise plenty pasture. Rape is
the quickest pasture we can grow and
combined with little grain makes
pigs grow rapidly. In this locality
rape can be grown in both spring and
fall. We are now starting to pasture
t patch sown August 20 that is eight
cen to twenty-four inches high. With
corn around $1.75 per bushel, shorts
and tankage almost unobtainable, a
rape pasture is great money saver
and is a crop that puts the profit in
hog raising.
We also plant rye, which is another
fine pasture crop, 1t comes in after
our rape is exhausted in the late fall,
and will last, II not pastured too heav-
lily, till we have spring rape. A few
acres of rye planted on good ground
convenient to the hog lot is extra fine
to let young fall pigs Craze on through
the winter. This will give them good
appetite. keep them sleek, and save
lot of feed.
A good summer pasture crop is cow
peas, but hogs don't care extra much
for them unless forced to eat them.
When hogs are pastured on cowpeas
they need an extra amount Of water.
But II you want to see those pigs
and porkers grow, just turn them in
peanut patch. We have thirty shoats
weighing around one hundred pounds
each on four acres of peanuts and
they sure are sleek. We have NOV
able fences and pasture part at a
time. At the present rate they are
consuming them, the four acres will
last sixty days and we expect that by
then they will weigh $50 pounds each,
gain Of 1900 pounds of four acres.
These nuts we're grown on land that
would not make good corn or much
cotton. Peanuts arek very easily
worked, and they can be moved be-
fore hogging of. Peanut hmay is
very good feed II cut at the right time
and taken care Of.

Peace will Put Ne.v
Value on the Dollar

The greatest merchants and indus
trial chiefs IN the country agree that
there will be readjustment during
the peace period. There will be a
gradual decline in prices and grad.
ual Improvement In the buying power
Of money.
The secretary Of the treasury has a
pretty good opportunity to form an
opinion Of financial tendencies. He
says:
every dollar saved now and
Invested In Liberty Bonds win be
worth much more when peace re-
adjustment comes. Every provi.
dent man and woman In the,
United states may find their saw. .
G1 lnss double In purchasing power
In the next few years. How can,
Z any one more certainly make
money than by saving Il now with
assurance Of It's enormous en-
hancement In value when normal
conditions are restored7"
The war took 100000 men out OF
productive civil life and turned them
into non-productive soldiers. To sup.
ply them all the governments in the
world went into the markets and be.
gan to bid for everything. Demand
increased by leaps and bounds while
supply remained stationary or was
going down. Result-higher prices
and declining buying power Of the
