Sprinkling should be done evenly

MAKE YOUR CORN WORTH MORE
FEED TANKAGE WITH CORN
TO HOGS

The above advice is being offered
TO Eastern Kentucky farmers and,
in fact, being urged upon them by
means OF tankage campaign con-
Quoted by county agricultural
agents and the College Of Agricul-
ture. No opportunity is being over
looked by any of these agencies 10
bring to the attention OF the noun
tain farmers the great value and
importance Of tankage in feed mix
lures for hogs.
No one can deny that the swine
industry n Eastern Kentucky needs
Improvement along many lines.
Better feeding, better hogs, better
housing better pastures, more sys-
tematic breeding, more careful sani-
tary measures, ETC., are all needed.
One Of the most urgent require
ments, however, is better feeding.
Under the present system corn,
kitchen waste, mast and grass are
the feeds commonly depended upon
TO grow and fatten hogs. II is evil
dent that there is a deficiency Of,
growth-producing material or pro-
tein, in these foods. In other
words, hogs do not make sufficient
development Of bone and muscle on
the feeds just mentioned. The re-
suit is stunted and Improbable
hogs. Pork produced on many
Eastern Kentucky farms actually
costs more than il would to buy II
from a retail dealer.
During the winter months, of
course, the mountain farmer has
more corn on hand than at any
other time Of the year. Hogs con-
sumo a very large part Of this corn.
II Is intended in this tankage cam
paign 10 encourage in every possible
way the proper feeding Of tankage

LAUNDERING
(Article III.)

Laundry work is, renovation, re-
quiring much consideration; but as
laundering is renovation and re-
newal. few brief directions will
be given.
Sort the clothes into piles Of
white and color. and separate these
piles OF fabrics into wool, silk, cot
ton and linen. Mend wherever pos
sible before washing. "A stitch in
time saves nine"
Remove stains from white clothes
If these stains are OF such a nature
as TO need special attention. Many
ordinary stains come out in the pro
cess az washing.
Soaking clothes in cold water
helps 10 clean them, because II
softens and dissolves so much Of
soil. and u certainly makes washing
easier. On account OF the possible
stains use cold water not hot Soak
only cottons and linens.
Wash in warm water and soap

Boil only white linen and cottons:

clean very soiIed clothing. Rub the
clothes before putting on 10 boil.
There must be good suds. Boil five
minutes after boiling point Is
reached. then rinse in hot water.
Boiling when done should follow
the washing and two hot rinses
should follow that. Do not boil
dirty clothes. and do not boil with
naphtha soap.

tankage TO use in rations for hogs
of different weights.
Hogs weighing 30-i00 lbs. should
get 100 lbs. corn shelled, or 200 ears
and 10 lbs. OF tankage. Hogs weigh
ing iOO-i75 lbs. should get 100 lbs.
corn shelled, or 200 ears and Q lbs.
of tankage. Hogs weighing 1920
lbs. should get 100 lbs. corn shelled,
or 200 ears, and lbs. OF tankage.
In the, above, one ear Of corn Is
estimated 10 shell out one-half
pound of grain or two ears one
pound. For practical purposes. this
may be considered as correct.
When corn is fed on the ear 70
hogs, the proper amount Of tankage
should be fed in a slop or mixed
with the kitchen waste.
About 4q6 OF the live weight Of o
hog in grain feed per day is con-
sidered a full feed. That is, q 80
pound pig should get about 2 pounls
of the corn and tankage combina-
ton per day, a 100 pound shote
about pounds, etc.
When hogs are fed as outlined
above maximum results from the
use Of the corn on hand will be made
possible. In other words, faster and
more economical gains will be made
than by the common method Of
feeding, which means more profit
10 the feeder.

CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CA
TARRH, CATARRHAL DEAF
NESS AMI AEAn NOISES

If you know Of some one who is
troubled with Catarrhal Deafness, head
noises or ordinary catarrh cut out this
formula and hand it to them and you
may have been the means Of saving
some poor sufferer perhaps from total
deafness. In England scientists for a
long time past have recognized that
catarrh is constitutional disease and
necessarily requires constitutional
treatment.
Sprays, inhalers and nose douches
are liable to irritate the delicate air
passages and force the disease into the
middle ear, which frequently means
total deafness, or else the disease may
be driven down the air passages to-
wards the lungs which is equally as
dangerous. The following formula
which is used extensively in the damp
English climate is constitutional
treatment and should prove especially
efficacious to sufferers here who live
under more favorable climate condi-
tions.
Secure from your druggist l ounce
Of Parmint Double strength). Take
this home and add to it IA pint of hot
water and a little granulated sugar;
stir until dissolved. Take one table
spoonful four times a day. This will
often bring quick relief from distress
sing head noises. Clogged nostrils
should open, breathing become easy
and hearing improve as the inflamma-
ton in the eustachian tubes is reduced
Parmint used in this way acts direct
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system and has a tonic action
that helps to obtain the desired re-
suits. The preparation is easy to
make, costs little and is pleasant to
take. Every person who has catarrh
or head noises or is hard of hearing
should give this treatment a trial
