PROFITABLE HOG FEEDING.

During the first year sweet clover
will furnish as much pasture for pigs
as any crop than can be grown. Pigs
do not eat it as readily to begin with
as alfalfa or clover. When sown at
oat-sowing time it is ready to pas
ture before the first of June and win
furnish good feed all summer. In
growing pigs experimentally the re-
suits on sweet clover are nearly as
good the first year as on alfalfa or
clover.
The second year, however, it is not
as good a pasture crop, because it
grows away frona the hogs so rapid
ly. 1t can be pastured during tits Sec
ond year as early as April, some time
turning many pigs on it; but by June
it has grown away from them and is
good for little other than shade for
the rest of the summer.
When cattle are turned into the
fields, pigs are able to make greater
use of it since the growth is nearer

SUNFLOWER SILAGE.
(By J. o. Tretsven)


The farmers who are going to fill
their silos with sunfolwers for the
firsttime, or those who are building
silos for ensiling sunforwers may be
interested to know that a much
greater weight of sunfolwers can be
put into silo than the usual rated ca.
pacity of silos. This difference is
due to the fact that the capacity Of
silos is rated on the basis of corn
which is much lighter than sunfolw-
ers.
While there is considerable differ
ence in the opinion of experimenters
as to the actual capacity of silos due
to the moisture content of the silage,
proportions of grain to stalks, thor
oughness of packing and the rate of
filling, weights obtained at the Mon
tant experiment station show that
sunflowers are much heavier than the
heaviest rating of corn silage.
The foll-w.ng table will show the
amount Of sunficwcrs that were put
into silo is feet in diameter at the
time the filling was completed in
comparison to the weight of corr
silage in silos of equal diameter, &C
cording to table made by ing o.

WHAT is TANKAGE?

This question is often asked along |
with the inquary regarding the possi-
bilities of making tankage on the
farm. Tankage consists of fresh meat |
scraps, fat trimmings and scrap bones
that have been thoroughly cooked |
with steam of packing plants and the !
surplus fat thus separated and re-
moved. The material is ground into
fine meat after being thoroughly
thoroughly dried. 1t is sold under
the name of takage, meat scraps and
meal meal.
Henry and Marrison state in their
book on Feeds and Feeding: "Tank-
age contains from 40 to go per cent
or mere of crude protein and from one
to ten per cent of fat. The varia-
tion in content of crude protein is
due principally to differences in the
amount of bone present. Owing to
the wide range in crude protein, and
fat content, these feeds should al
ways be purchased on guarantee of
composition. It is generally fed to
swine and poultry ranging next to
skim milk and buttermilk as nitro
genous supplements for these ami
mails. Mixed with other feeds, it may
be fed to horses, cattle or sheep.
When tankage contains a large
amount of bone, it should be termed
meat and bone meal. This producs
is used preferably for feeding poul-
try"
Since tankage and meat meal are
produced in part from the carcasses
of diseased animals, some feeders
have feared it as a medium of car
rying disease. Since the product is
the result of thorough sterilization
from steam cooking, there is no dam
ger of infection. The experience of
thousands of feeders and the test at
numerous experiment stations show
that the product is perfectly harm
less from the disease-disseminating
standpoint.
The economy in the used of tank
age depends upon its price and the
local price or availability of skim
milk or other like foods. Where
skim milk is not available for feed
ing hogs, tankage will prove a very
desirable supplement and in moss
cases will return a good profit in the
increased growth of hogs. When higf
grade takage is fed, as the ,sble sup
S plement to corn, to pigs weighing
8 over 100 pounds, it should form from
' nine to ten per cent of the total ra
!: tion. Fed in this manner, one poun;
, of takage will ordinarily replace from
: three to five pounds of corn wher'
: corn is the exclusive ration fed. Witt
: young pigs it is advisable to MAX
: tankage as high as 20 per cent o
: the ration. For pigs fed corn o.
such protein-rich pasture as alfalfa
: clover, soy bean, cowpea, or rape
: five per cent of high grade tankag
: is usually sufficient to balance the ra
: ton. Indiana Farmers Guide.

The best time to castrate pigs is
when they are five to seven weeks
old. At this time they recover from
the operation quickly, and there is lit
tie or no loss of life. 1t also allows
plenty of time for the wounds to heal
up before weaving.
A pair of clean hands, a sharp
knife, a stiff brush, and a pail of dis

OLD AGE AND DIGESTION.

Two great causes of premature old
age are lack of exercise and poor
digestion. If girl of 90 suffers from
chronic dyspepsia she will look so in
no time at all; and if a woman in
those dangerous years between So and
40 allows her digestive system TO run
down, she will look wretchedly old
long before she should.
| want to talk later on about eXer-
cises for keeping one youthful but
today just a word about indigestion.
Many cases of digestive disorder
come from the quick lunch habit which
our business girls as well as our bust
ness men, have acquired. Hurried
eating puts food into the stomach
without proper chewing and without a
sufficient supply of the digestive
juices If the mind is on something
else the blood will be in the brain in
stead of the stomach. So the first
thing 10 do is TO eat slowly and to
chew the food properly.
The next step is to strengthen the
stomach muscles on which digestion
| largely depends. In the digestive pro-
cess the stomach muscles alternately
relax and contract, producing a churn-
| ing motion which, along with the
| fluids, digests food. Naturally, if the
muscles are weak, digestion is carried
on badly and laboriously. Digestive
medicines are only a partial aid be-
lcause the process is not purely chem
! ical; if it were, the familiar rhubarb
and soda mixture might be all We re-
quired for perfect digestion.

SOIL BUILDING PLAN
MAINTAINS FERTILITY
OF INDIANA FARMS

LAFAYETTE, Ind, June 1s.-Cer-
tain fundamental principles in soil
management must be followed if
Indiana fields are to yield more abund-
and crops or even maintain their
present rate, says Director G. l. Chris
tie, of the agricultural experiment
state at Purdue University. 1t is be-
coming generally recognized that crops
can not be grown successfully year
after year unless the producer puts
back in the soil what the crops take
out. such as phosphorus, nitrogen,
potash and other chemicals, says Mr..
| Christie.
The director points out that thirty
/ years of extentive experimental work
not only at Lafayette, but at various
other points over the state has evolved
| system in which it is shown what
must be done to maintain the fertility
now present and TO build up depleted
! fields.
Must Use Limestone.
The Indiana plan of soil building
! briefly is that" says Mr.. Christie.
Use ground limestone wherever it is
) needed to correct acidity or to counter
act the poisonous effect of soluble
aluminium compounds; drain lands
that are wet and cold; grow clover or
other legumes to obtain nitrogen from
the air: put manure and crop residues
back on the soil with the least possible
loss OF plant food and organic matter
and apply available plant food-nitro
gen, phosphoric acid and potash
according to the needs Of the different
crops and the deficiencies of the
soil"
This plan is being widely used by
thousands of Indiana farmers who are
taking hold of the idea of building VI
their farms and making them more
productive, according to Mr.. Christie
At a recent conference of experiment
station officers and executives of the
fertilizer industry who visited Purdue
