GOOD DESIGN FOR HOG HOUSE
Essentials Of Fresh Air and Sunlight

BY WILLIAM A. RADFoRD

Mr. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject of building work on the farm,
for the readers of this paper. On ac-
count OF his wide experience as Editor,
Author and Manufacturer. he is, with
out doubt. the highest authority on all
these subjects. Address all inquiries
to William A. Radford, No. 1897

Farmers in the corn belt market
much of their corn crops through hogs.
Many go further-they use the hogs
to harvest the crop as well as to mar
ket 1t. The latter turn their crop of
spring pigs into the cornfield, and
when marketing time comes the pigs
are fat and well finished, which means
they will bring the top price.
II Is now approaching the season
when many farmers will prepare to
produce the crop of pigs for next sea-
son. That means that the sows due
to farrow In the late winter or early
spring will be provided with a modern
house for their families of little pigs.
Early spring pigs are profitable, but
unless they have the right kind Of a
house 1t Is a difficult matter to keep
them alive and healthy until It Is time
to turn them out to pasture.
The modern farrowing house, or hog
house, provides three essentials to

Mulching Tomatoes Most
Excellent as Substitute

"where your tomatoes are not to be
thoroughly cultivated. mulching Is q
good substitute" says d. @. Mooring,
extension horticulturist, Oklahoma A.
and NJ college. ut consists merely
of adding a layer Of three or four
inches Of straw over the ground be-
twsen and around the tomato plants.
Thi, mulch will prevent the growth Of
grass and weeds, holds the tomatoes
up Off the dirt to prevent rot and at
the same time keeps the food conditions
more nearly normal and in this way
tends to prevent the stem end rot,
which Is quite common where there are
abrupt changes In weather conditions.
This mulch will also enable you to get
around over the ground to better ad-
vantage in case Of wet weather."

crete floor. The building b extended
east and west so that the low sun of
late winter and early spring may be
permitted to enter. The windows In
the side wall admit sunlight and
warmth to the row Of pens on the
side, while the upper windows per
form the same service for the other
row Of pens.
This building Is OF feet long and "A
feet wide. On each side of the feed
ing alley that extends through the
building are 10 farrowlng pens. The
floors Of the pens are partially corr

crete. The bedding for the sows and
pigs are placed on these raised floors.
which prevents the cold and damp
from the concrete floor penetrating to
the delicate youngsters.
On the floor plan that accompanies
the exterior view Is shown pig rails In
each pen. These rails are raised slight
ly above the floor and extend around
two sides of the pens. They are high
enough to offer the small pigs chance
to escape when their clumsy mothers
lie down and threaten to crush them.
1t Is such habits and dangers as
those enumerated that the modern
hog house Is designed to overcome.
That's what makes them good invest
.ments for those who make good profits

Radio in Thunderstorm. !,

The weather bureau, although with
out facilities Of Its own for conduct
ing investigations in this icld, has CO
operated in various ways with other
agencies also interested In conditions
affecting wireless telephony, says the
Scientific American. As result VI
work done by Nebraska Wesleyan
university based on thunderstorms re-
ports furnished by the weather bu-
reau the investigators reached the
conclusion that there is no relation
between barometric pressure and audi
bility at distant receiving station.
High static frequency, high static
audibility and nearby thunder
storm area, however, tend to reduce
the audibilIty at the receiving station.

profitable hog raising. The first is pro-
lection Of the young pigs and their
mothers from the cold, damp weather
that prevails in the early spring. the
second is that the pigs have an abun-
dance of pure. dry ART the third Is
that the labor of caring for a number
of sows and their pigs Is cut to q
minimum.
A good type Of farrowing pen that
Is the least, expensive to build Is
shown in the accompanying illustra-
tion. 1t Is of the half-monitor or saw
tooth roof design, the windows facing
the south and the length extending
east and west. The. building Is OF
good tight frame construction set on
A concrete foundation, with a concrete
floor. A concrete floor Is an important
feature of the house, as 1t provides q
sanitiry surface that Is easily cleaned.
BY laying the floor before frost sets
in, the construction Of the upper part
Of the house may be delayed until late
In the fall or even until winter.
The best site for a hog house is on
a slightly elevated piece of ground SO

deteriorate rapidly, but the scale
beams are much more delicately built
and should be carefully protected.
very commendable method Of
protection Is shown on the accom-
panying photograph where mono
lithic concrete structure was erected
around the scale box. The structure
is really large enough to serve as a
business Office for the farmer and 1t
will afford secure housing for his
records.
Such house as this can be easily
constructed by anyone who has ordi-
nary skill. The walls are cast In
forms which are built up Of smooth
boards strongly braced. The roof also
Is made of reinforced concrete. The
walls should be made inches thick,
but reinforced with ss-inch rods at g.
inch intervals both crosswise and
lengthwise. Any roughness or mac
curacies In the wall surface may be
removed by applying coat of cement
paint made by mixing cement In water
to the consistency of cream or brick
or carborundum block can be used to
rub down the surface, before 1t has
dried entirely.
