KEEP THEM COMING:

The Right Kind of Hog VIII Pay Out at
the Present Prices Of Feed.

Stick to the hog-give the shoats and
young pigs chance to make you some
money before the end of the year, says
H. G. Clayton, district agent. 1t takes
good hogs TO pay out at present prices
of feed, but the right kind will do It
The man who gets out of the hog busi~
ness now viii regret 1t later.
Lousy hogs cost the farmer almost two
cents a pound more than Clean hogs
don't pay this toll.
II you have not bought a good boar,
resolve to get one, as there are plenty
of good ones at prices any farmer can
afford. Under present conditions the
farmer cannot afford anything but good
boar.
If the hogs appear out Of condition let
them have access to a mixture of char
coal, l bushel; wood ashes, bushels;
sacked lime, 5 pounds; sulphur, pounds:
copperas. pounds.
Remember that the cycle of hog prices
runs from high to low and back again
in about three to five years. If present
conditions seem bad, look over the curve
Of prices for i number of years. 1t will
show that each low point was followed by
a peak of prices-this peak will come
again. Be ready for it.

CAREFUL FEEDING
OF PIGS NECESSARY
When One Month Old They Should
Have a Separate Place for
Feeding.

At four months of aga a thrifty pig
should weigh from rs to 100 pounds
depending upon how much flesh it
carries. In order that the pig may
attain this size and weight, careful
feeding is necessary, says A. p. Spen-
Ger of the Florida Agricultural Extern
sion division.
AT, three weeks of age little pigs
viii begin to eat, and when one month
old they should have a separate place
for feeding. Partition off a small
corner and make a creep hole where
the little fellows can go in and feed
by themselves. Following this plan
they will grow faster and be less de-
pendent upon their mothers milk. If
such a pan Is conveniently arranged,
1t viii cause little extra trouble and
be worth several times what II cost.
Little pigs should not be weaned
until they are eight to ten weeks old,
and the best breeders usually allow
them to remain with the mother until
they are twelve or fourteen weeks
old. 1t is mistake TO wean them
too young, it stops their growth.
When the growth of a young animal
is retarded two or three months are
necessary in order to get it well start
ed again.
Small pigs should be fed largely on
shorts and oats With a small amount
of cornmeal and tankage. In feeding

SEVERAL WAYS TO
UTILIZE THE FIG
Do Not Let the Opportunity Pass of
Saving One of the Best
Known Fruits.

Figs are ready for canning and pre-
serving. Do not let the opportunity
pass Of saving and utilizing one of the
best fruits known. Miss Sarah w.
Partridge, state demonstration agent,
suggests the following recipes:
Preserved Figs.
Select pounds fruit that is just
mature or nearly mature. Sprinkle 1
cupful soda over the figs and cover
with about quarts boiling water,
Allow to stand Is minutes, Drain off
this soda solution, rinse the figs well
through two baths of clear cold water,
and let drain.
Add the fruit gradually to a syrup
made by boiling together pounds
sugar and quarts water Cook rap
idly until the figs are bright and trans
parent. and the syrup Is sufficiently
heavy.
The figs may be removed to the rear
of the stove and put Immediately into
sterilized Jars and sealed.
Fis Conserve.
Material: / quart figs (plain canned)
or pounds fresh figs, / Ia pounds
sugar, 2-3 cupful pecan meats, IL
pound raisins.
Cut all. except nuts. into small pieces
and cook until thick and transparent
(about an hour will be long enough to
cook. Add nuts 5 minutes before re-
moving from stove.
Fig Sweet Pickle.
Prepare the figs as for preserving.
Drop into boiling spiced vinegar, pre-
pare as follows:
For / quart fgs-secure IL pint

RAPID EXPANSION
WEEVIL POISONING
New Field Stations for Control of Boil
WeeviI Have Been Established.

The rapid expansion of weeyil poison
ing throughout the southern states has
made necessary the establishment of a
number of new field stations by the bu-
reau OF entomology, United States De-
partment of Agriculture, throughout the
weevil-infested territory. These have
been located to serve as wide a range OF
districts as possible, and with special
reference to securing points representa-
tive of the most important variations in
local conditions which has direct bear
ing on weeyil poisoning.
Usually two or more men are connect
ed with each station, one of whom will
be engaged upon research work to de-
termne the most efficient methods OF
poisoning the weevil under conditions rep
resented by that station. The other will
be engaged in surveying weevH and cot
ton conditions throughout the surround
ing district and, in connection with this
work will be available TO assist AID adj
wise all farmers who are poisoning. 1t
is tho intention of the department of
agriculture to try to reach every indi-
viduaI farmer who is poisoning. and as
sist him in planning his campaign, as
sembling and starting his busting ma
chimes, etc.
The stations located so far are as fol-
lows: Fairfax, S. c.; Waynesboro, Ga;
Americas, Ca; Demopolis. Ala; Tusca-
loosa, Ala; Brookhaven, Miss; Victoria,
Tex; Denton, Tex; Taylor, Tex; San
Benito, Tex.
In addition number of men are as
signed to more or less irregular duty in
the districts not accessible to these sta
tions. Anyone desiring assistance in
weevil poisoning should correspond with
the Delta Laboratory, Tallulah, La, and
they win be placed in contact with the
nearest representative.

WHIT NOT RAISE
PUREBRED CORN?
Do Not Wait Until Planting Time
Next Spring to Select
Seed Corn
(By c. K. MooUARRIE)

Now is the time to select seed corn
for next years crop. Do not wait till
planting time next spring. Do it now.
From one end of the state to the
other we see fields of scrub corn, the
seed of which was selected in the crib
at planting time. These fields will
yield from Is to % per cent less than
they would IL the seed had been pure
bred. There was produced in this
state last year 10,530,000 bushels of
corn. Assuming the production this
year will be equally as large, what
would be the production if we had
used purebread seed? Figuring the
increase at is per cent, we find that
1t would be 12,2700o0 bushels instead
of 10,530.0 900. Sufficient argument for
improving our corn.
Why select seed at this time? Be-
cause now is the time to see what kind
of plant our selected ear grew on. A
large, healthy. robust ear might grow
from a specially rich spot in the field.
Such an ear would not possess any
particular advantage over any other
ear. II we search for seed corn in the
field we viii be able to know whether
or not the ear grew at the proper
height from the ground, whether or
not it had a long or short shank, etc.
When we find a plant and an ear
that suits all requirements, the ear
should be marked In such a way that
we can recognize it and separate it
from the others at harvesting time.
Tie string around the ear. When
the corn is gathered, those marked
ears should be laid aside to be ex-
amined before the next planting.
The thoroughbred farm animal is in
demand on every hand. Why should
not this be the case with grain?
Wheat, rye, barley and all other
grains can be greatly improved, and
they are being improved by many
farmers themselves who go into the
fields while the corn is yet growing
and pick ears from naturally vigorous
plants, from plants that have suffi-
Gent leaves to manufacture the need
ed starch, from plants possessing all
those other characteristics by which
purebred corn is recognized.
