Small litters of pigs are reported
in many parts this spring and indica
tlonS are that the pig crop will be
far below normal. This will mean
that better care of the surviving pigs
will be necessary if the nations sup
ply Of animals is kept anywhere near
the average.
The reason for the shortage Of pigs
is explained by the fact that, due to
the cheapness of corn the past win
ter, it was fed in large amounts to
brood sOWs, while tankage, or protein
balancer for the ration, was compara-
lively high priced and was not given
to the animals in large amounts. As

Movable Hog House Favored,
The farmer who has a large mum.
ber Of pigs can well afford to build
movable hog house. Such houses.
designed by the Iowa experiment sta.
tlon at Ames, have been used for q
number of years and have proven
their worth. Recently requests for
plans were received from Italy where
some farmers had heard of the houses
and wanted to try them. These
houses are inexpensive, easily kent
clean and can be pulled from one
held to another. They can be turned
SO that sunlight is allowed to enter
and are arranged so that plenty Of
ventilation is provided for. The fen.
ture of the house is the manner IN
which sunlight is allowed to enter
through the top.
The movable hog house Is also eas.

can be transferred from one to an.

MANY GARDEN PLANTS
ARE S0WN TOO THICK
To Produce Best Vegetables
Thinning Out Is Necessary.
Many Gardeners Use Mere Seeds Than
Needed Under Expectation of Se-
curing Fuller Sandstone
Must Be Pulled.

prepared by the United States Department
Of AgriCultuIe.)
Thin your garden crops to an ever
stand if you want to produce good
vegetables.
Gardeners usually SOW more seeds
than are necessary, under the eXpec.
tation Of getting a fuller stand, or at
least Of having enough. This results
in no particular harm except the waste
of seeds, provided the plants are
thinned before they begin to crowd
each other.
Peas very seldom need any thinning,
as they will thrive when planted quite
close together. Beans planted five
seeds to the hill and the hills y inches
apart will not need to be thinned, but
if six or seven seeds have been
dropped it will be desirable to thin
them, leaving only four or five in the
hill. Corn should always be thinned
to three or four stalks in the hill, the
weaker stalks being pulled out, leav.
ing only the best. Radishes, unless too
thick, can be allowed to stand, thin.
ming being accomplished by pulling up
plants for table use as they reach edi-
bic size.
Lettuce Is generally sown entirely
too thickly and, to thin the bed, the
small or medium-SiZed plants can be
pulled out and used. Some of the
plants may be lifted and transplanted,
spacing them three or four inches in
each direction, so that they will devel-
op into distinct heads for use later.
Beets are usually planted entirely too
thickly, partly due to the fact that
each seed ball contains two or three
seeds and, as a rule, every one of these
seeds grow. They should be thinned
to stand not closer than two inches
apart in the row. Still later every
other beet should be pulled out. This
last thinning, however, can be post
poned until the beets are large enough
to use.
Carrots and parsnips are generally
sown too thickly and must be thinned. |
The thinning should be done Just as
soon as the plants are large enough
to pull out, and as they are thinned a
little loose soil should be worked in
around the plants that are left. Two
or two and one-half inches is about the
right distance to leave the carrots, and
three to five inches for parsnips.
The gardener may be reluctant to
pull out nice, thrifty plants, but he
should remember that if all are al
owed to remain few, If any, will ma
,ure satisfactorily.
