SPECIALIST DISCUSSES
THE HOG QUESTION

One hundred and ten farmers inter
ested in hog production attended the
five hog schools that were conduct
ed this last week in Roosevelt county.
Mr.. Millin, the livestock specialist
confined his remarks to the hog mar
ket situation, the chance this west
ern country has compared with other
countries in the hog raising game,
the care of the brood SOW before
narrowing, the care of the young pig
and diseases and the commercial use
of northern Montana feeds. In re-
gard to the market situation he be-
lieves that the IL per cent additional
brood sows kept over this last year
will make the price of hogs this year
go below the level of last year. He
believes further that the European
buying power of surplus hogs is low
er than last year. He also believes
that the fact that our land is cheap
and that u corn is used as a supple
ment for summer fallow, which in
sures us a cash crop the following
year, will give us some revenue off
of some very cheap feed, and that
we can compete with corn belt farm
ers on a western market which has
been running from a cent to two
cents a pound higher and where our
freight rate is smaller.
He emphasized that the proper
feeds should be given the brood sows
before narrowing and the proper
amount of exercise also. He stated
that the cause of sows eating their
young pigs was a requirement for
bone and muscle building in the foods
and if the proper food is given this
condition will not appear. The farm
who are troubled with hairless
pigs, he stated, should feed potassim
He gave the preventive for
the disease of thumps, which was the
feeding of proper foods for the sow
and plenty of exercise for the young
pig. He stated that under certain
age the pig should have a right
amount of food and exercise. He
drew a diagram for a pen that would
prevent the sows from MASKING their
young ones and emphasized strongly
the careful attention that was re-
during the narrowing time.
He recommended alfalfa and sweet
for the best feed from May
our corn is ripe, and in a low
place rape should be planted.
He recommended that in case these
could not be raised, that spring
planting of fall rye would make an
excellent hog pasture and stay green
for a long time.
1t is quite evident that some farm
ers going into the hog game for the
first time undoubtedly got a great
deal of good results from these five
schools. D. B. Noble, Co. Agent.

MONTANA REPORT ON
LABOR CONDITIONS

Helena, April 11.-While there are
jobs in Montana for more skilled
miners, farm hands, sheep herders
and lambers, there is considerable
surplus of common labor (that is be-
ing increased by an influx from the
Pacific COAST, and of men who are
holding out for higher wages than
are now offered, according to reports
received by the division of labor of
the state department of agriculture
during the first week in April from
private and public employment agen-
cies and from county agents.
So far as the farms and sheep
ranches are concerned, the reports
indicate the employers will not be
stampeded into paying excessively
high wages and that the acreage will
be confined to the labor available.
Farm wages range from $50 to S65,
with the most general wage reported
at $40 to $50. Wages of shepherd
ers range from $50 a month to $3.50
and $500 a day.
A number of the larger cities re-
port a surplus of building craftsmen
and other skilled labor, of truck driv-
ers and clerical help. In most places
The craftsmen will have work when
weather conditions permit contsruc-

Value of Pure Bred Is
Taught by County Agent

A county agent In Colorado reported
to the United States Department Of
Agriculture convincing method he
has used In furthering the better-slres
work In his county. A butchering and
meat-cutting demonstration was given
with two market hogs. one pure-bred
Duroc Jersey and the other scrub red
hog. The hogs were weighed. then
slaughtered and dressed. and weighed
again. The live weight Of each hog
was practically the same. The dress
ing percentage Of the pure bred was
about 7 per cent more than that of
the scrub. The good hog figured to be
worth $2.10 more than the other. This
was but a fraction of the difference In
value between the two hogs, however.
as the pure bred was but half as old
as the scrub hog. and had consumed
much less feed.
The meat-cutting demonstration was
held In the auditorium of the county
school. and more than 500 men and
women were present. The two car
casses were cut into the various cuts
of meat, showing the superior quality
of the meat Of the pure-bred hog.

country and make public the results OF
this study, thereby enabling the en-
tire country to derive a benefit. Every
livestock feeder who submits his feed
ing problem, telling his present prac-

will be an active aid In the drive for
better methods of livestock feeding.
Handbook Being Prepared.
A vest-pocket-size handbook entitled
"A Handbook for the Better Feeding
Of Live Stock" Is being prepared by
department feeding specialists for free
distribution to farmers who desire a
handy-sized set Of simple rules and
reference tables to be followed in feed
ing the different classes Of farm AMI
mails. Requirements Of animals. simple
analyses of feeds, feeds to substitute
for other feeds. and simple feeding IN
structions will enable farmers to I'M
derstand the principles of better feed
Ing, and at their own practice to suit
the conditions on their farms.
The Department of Agriculture re-
nlizes that, In order to accomplish the
most good, drive for nationwide bet
ter feeding of live stock must have the
cooperation of all persons Interested
in the subject. Summaries of the prog
ress Of the work will be published to
keep those interested informed.
