A GENTLE MOTHER PIo.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
One great advantage Of the pig club
Is that every animal becomes great
pet. Sows should be accustomed to
being handled and they will soon be-
come quite gentle, If not already so.
A savage SOW is menace and II she
cannot be tanned she had better be dis
posed Of When a sow is used to hav-
ing the pig club boy about, she can
be cared for at farrowing 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 In
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.
If sow is to be put in new quarters
before farrowing, move her early
enough so that she will have time tC
get accustomed to the pen.
Use short straw or chaff for bed
ding.
Make fender of 2 by 6 nailed tC
the wall or 9 inches from the f1o0l
so that the little pigs may have g
chance to slide under and save them
selves when mother lurches down upOr
them. More pigs are needed and many
little pigs can be saved by this ar
rangement.

FEEDING THE MOTHER SOW.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
The feeding Of the sow that has just
farrowed 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 flow 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 II is often cheaper
10 buy these concentrates in COM
mercial mixture when the proper in
gradients are difficult to obtain, or the
feeder is inexperienced in handling
them separately.
These feeds may be offered in a
watery slop. The feeding Of the sow
should be liberal, as at no other time
can the growth Of the pigs be pushed
so rapidly or economically.
The Lakeland evening telegram., 1920-09-07
HOGS AND PoIAToEa

National Crop Improvement service.]
Because of the economy with which
the pig converts its food into edible
desh, this animal steadily increases In
Importance as our population becomes
more dense.
Practically every farmer should raise
and fatten pigs, for family consumption
If not for market, upon culls and sur.
plus potatoes and sweet potatoes, in
order to prof1tably conserve valuable
nutritive material that would other
wise be wasted. Pigs will properly
utilize many other by-products of the
farm, such as dairy by-products and
kitchen and garden wastes, as well
as grains that cannot otherwise be
proftably 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 sheaply 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 II
/ pounds. The pig yields from Is to so
per cent Of his live weight as dressed
| carcass: the steer only 55 to az 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 then
and market the cured products, Oh
tanning increased profits even though
the undertaking be small one.

A BALANCED HOG RATION.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
"The young growing pig weighing 30
to 60 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.
AT $50 pounds for each pound Of
protein six pounds Of carbohydrate.
1.-THE fairly well-grown hog, 24O 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 a 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 1t 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 tankaee and
gluten feed to rua freely.

JURY INDICTS
BAKING FIRM
corby Company Charged
With Short Weighing
On Bread Loaves.
CARELESS" IS EXCUSE
Innocently Reduced Size to
Meet Increased Cost,
Says Head.
CARELESS" IS EXCUSE

Charges that the Corby Baking
Company. the largest establishment
Of its kind in Washington. mis-
branded it's loaves of bread in a
manner calculated to deceive the
consumer were made in an indict-
ment returned against the baking
company yesterday by the grand
jury.
The Indictment. which contains
sixteen counts, charges the firm
with illegally manufacturing and
selling a misbranded product. The
loaves Of bread, there being l69 in
volved, were wrapped. 1t is alleged.
in paper bearing a label reading.
"one and one-half pounds" but, the
Indictment charges, they contained
less than this weight.
Followed Accepted Custom.
Charles I. Corby.. president of the
hrm, stated yesterday that in re-
ducing the size of the loaf to con-
form with increased cost OF produce
tion his firm was but following an
accepted custom prevailing among
bakers all over the country. Corby
explained that ION account of the
huAnO0A VI lodNco
we were producing in comparison
with the entire output, which wrap
per stated the loaf weighed one and
one-hah pounds, We entirely over
looked the fact that in reducing the
weight of this loaf of bread we
were doing an unlawful act, but the
cause of our overlooking same was
due to the accepted custom of re-
dnPinU the NVaiUhf 70 20 ~
any increase In cost of production.
Before making our last reduce
tion in weight" Corby said, I'VE
went to the chairman of the fair
price committee of the Department
OF Justice and stated that we were
going to reduce the size of our loaf
Of bread one ounce, which We did.
Sought Committees Advice.
TN March, 1920" said Corby,
when We asked the fair price COM
mittee for permission to increase
the price of the leaf we made =
statement to the committee that we
were at that time scaling our bread
one ounce less.
1T was suggested" he said, that,
instead of increasing the price we
again reduce the weight, to which
We made the reply that it would
not be practical to reduce the
weight any further.
"On April 26, 1920" Corby de-
clared. in an audience with the
sealer of weights and measures, We
called his attention to the fact that
we had decreased the size of our
loaf of bread"
TIE sales complained of in the in
dictment were alleged to have been
made on April Is. 16, 10 and 20.
