circumstance.

Men and women can never really

scale. A. wOman's mind and a man S
mind do not function in the same
way. They have different completes,
different inhibitiOns, a different scale
of values, and they react differently
toward almost every subject.
The real source Of almost all mari
tai discord arises out of the fact that
men marry women instead Of marry
ing other men. If a man espOused
another man. he would know how to
get along with him. He would have
his number down to the last figure,
and would know just when and
where it was wise to get on and best
to get off.
But with a woman matrimOny is
another pair Of sleeves. He has not
the slightest idea of how to deal with
the strange feminine partner he has
established on his hearthstOne,
whose ideals are alien to his, and
who does not look at a single sub
ject from his standpoint.
And the woman is equally unable
to cope with the situation because
she married man instead of an
other woman. She, also, could have
dealt astutely and wisely with one of
her own sex. whose psychology was
an open book to her. but when it
came to getting along with a he
man, she was all at sea. with no
chart or compass to guide her.
The thing that makes marriage
failure to both men and women is
The lack of sympathy in their hus-
bands and wives, yet this. is nearly
always simply the result of a lack
of understanding A mans idea, for
instance, of proving his love for his
wife is hustling out and working
hard to make enough money to keep
her soft and comfortable SO he
tolls night and day, and says it in
lmOusines and pearls, and his wife
feels that she is a poor, neglected
creature because her husband does
not sit up and hold her hand and
tell her how much he adores her.

have not made a start. it is not too
late to make a beginning with this
class of livestock. OF course, those
who engage in hog production must
raise them as economically as pos

After a litter is two weeks old
the sow should be on full feed.
Usually, the best ration to give her
is the one which is the cheapest
and most productive of large flow
of milk However, the importance
OF feeding a ration that is stimu-

great that economy becomes of

Of milk sow gives determines the
rate of development of her pigs
during these weeks. The cheapest
gains that a pig will ever make
will be during the sucking period.
According to Professor w. s.
Rice, feeds which are high in pro
tein and mineral matter are neceS-
sary because milk is a muscle and
BODYBUILDING food. Feeds high in
these two constituents are usually
conducive to milk production. Such
feeds as tankage, shorts, skimmiik
or buttermilk must be used along
with corn. The following combina-
tons are good and suggest the pro-
portions by weight in which the
feeds should be given:
1t One part corn plus two parts

shorts plus ten per cent tankage.

Pasture is very valuable addi-

milk production of a sow that they
have upon the dairy COW. The aver

during the lactation period is about

When the pigs are about three
weeks old, a creep should be con-
structed to which all pigs can go
and eat from low troughs at fire.
quent intervals. A small quantity
of shelled corn, shorts and ground
oats are good feeds to keep in these
troughs.
The male pigs should be castrated
when six weeks old or about two
weeks before weaving.
The usual time for weaving pigs
is when they are eight to ten weeks
old. If they have had up to this time
the advantage of a creep and good
rations. they will scarcely miss their
mothers milk. Reduce the sow S
ration a few days before weaving.
This precaution will tend greatly to
eliminate the conditions that favor
inflamed udders or caked teats at
weaving time. The following rations
are suggested for pigs at weaving
time:
l. Corn, two parts; shorts, one
part; skim milk, one part.
2. Corn, five parts; shorts, three
parts; tankage. one part.
The shorts and tankage may be
fed in a Stop. but just as good re-
suits are obtained by dry feeding
from a self-feeder.
BE sure to keep the pigs on pas
ture. If you have not planned a
summer pasture. It is not yet too
late to do so. Cattail millet can be
sown and will make one of the very
best summer pastures. Following is
