Time 70 Pick Brood Sows.

Early fall Is the time Of year when
hog growers should select from the
spring crop Of pigs the sows to be
used as next years dams. From now
on until the breeding season these
sows should be fed in a manner differ-
ent from the way they were to be fat
tened for market purposes. GOOD
forage crops are practically a neces-
sity. A self-feeder containing a good
quality. Of thrashed oats makes good
feed for these sows. In addition. ac-
Ecording to specialists Of the United
States department of agriculture, they
may be fed q small amount Of, corn
and some shorts or middlings, and fish
meal or tankage.
Careful attention should be given to
the selection of sows for breeding pur-
poses. First, they should be selected
from q good sized litter and from a
litter whose dam has good sucking
qualities. The brood SOW should be OF
q good rangy type, with good, strong
arohed back. deep sides, rather thin
neck, and not too broad in the race.
By all means she should be a good
footed" animal with good, strong legs

from the ground.
The SOW that takes plenty OF exer-
else is the one that is most likely to
make a desirable brood SOW. Do not
select a SOW from litter whose dam
is cross and irritable. The sow sho0ld
be gentle and easily handled.
Attention should also be paid to the
eyes, A blind sow is likely to step
on and injure her pigs. Careful at
tention to these details at this time
will have tendency to add to the
value of the breeding herd and to the
number of pigs that may be brought
to maturity.

Hog. Heaviest Grain Eaters.

The various proportions of the crops
that are fed to the different classes
of domestic animals on farms in this
country have been determined by the
bureau of crop estimates with inter-
esting results. Corn, of course, Is fed
to hogs much more than to-any other
class Of animals-50 per cent to them,
or fully one-half of the quantity fed
to all animals. Horses eat "A per cent,
cattle 10 per cent, and poultry per
cent.
Horses are the chief eaters of oats,
their share being IS per cent, that Of
cattle 10 per cent, of hogs II per cent,
and of poultry 6 per cent Barley Is
chiefly eaten by hogs, whose con-
sumption is so per cent of the guam
tity eaten by all animals, while horses
eat IS per cent, cattle ~ per cent, and
poultry II per cent. OF the small
fraction of the wheat crop fed to ami
mails. poultry gets So per cent and
hogs 20 per cent. Nearly all the hay
goes to cattle and horses, IL and 40
per cent. respectively.
Rye has been fed to animals as well
as used for bread and whisky. and
more than one-half of this feed has
gone to hogs, one quarter to horses,
and one-seventh to poultry. Nearly
all the silage is eaten by cattle, and
little is consumed by hogs, sheep, and
even by poultry. Mill feed is especial
ly for cattle and swine, which to-
gether consume Sc per cent of the
whole quantity that is fed, in about
equal proportions.
The figures Of the bureau indicate
that hogs are the principal grain eat
ers, horses a close second, cattle third,
poultry fourth, and that sheep consume
a. mere trace. Cattle are the greatest
forage eaters, and they and horses
consume the bulk of it, so that little
is eaten by sheep and swine, as frac-
