Young Cockleburs Most
Dangerous to Porkers

Fields infested with cockleburs
should not be used for grazing pigs
In the spring when cockleburs are
sprouting, advises A. L. Ward, swine
husbandman extension service A. & n.
college Of Texas.
The most dangerous time is just Ms
the cocklebur plant pushes up through
the surface Of the soil. The pigs like
these young sprouts, which contain a
poisonous substance which results IA
tally II eaten in sufficient quantities.
Experiments have proved that II
ounces OF these sprouts contain suf-
ficient poison to kill 5O-pound shoat.
Death usually results quickly. some.
what like sorghum poisoning of cattle
When pigs are first affected the en-.
tire bunch should be removed to dry
lot for short time, where they should
be given whole milk. grease or lard.
The surest preventive Is to keep pigs
from fields infested with burs until
the plants reach height of four to
six inches. The plants at this stage
lose the poisonous properties.

Soy Beans Superior as
Substitute for Tankage

At the Purdue Und.) experiment sta.
tion soy beans have been substituted
for tankage with very good results
However, when soy beans are fed, a
mineral mixture should be fed. Several
may be used. The one which was used
at Purdue was 10 parts wood ashes.
10 parts acid phosphate. one part salt
Other good mineral mixtures are
equal parts Of wood ashes and salt,
equal parts of limestone, salt and
bonemeal or rock phosphate.
Soy beans contain about one-half
the amount Of protein which tankage
does. so should be fed In about twice
the amount Of tankage, perhaps three
fourths to pound per head per day.
The wheat does not need to be ground
so finely provided 1t is soaked for a
few hours. Soy beans are worth about
two-thirds per ton as much as tank
age.

Determine Profit From
Sow by Size of Litter

The profit from the sow is deter.
mined by the number OF pigs she
raises. II 1t costs $50 to feed sow
and litter of ten pigs from breeding to
weaving time, the cost per pig is only
So, and If there are only six pigs, the
cost will be $5 per pig. OF course
there are many things that may cause
the loss of pigs before weaving, but
ordinarily the sow that farrows the
good litter Is the SOW that raises the
most pigs and makes the most profit.
The number of pigs sow farrows is
determined by the number Of ova, or
eggs, she deposits at breeding time. 1t
is generally admitted that sows that
are gaining in weight and are in fair
condition deposit more ova and far
row larger, stronger litters. However,
1t is not necessary or desirable to have
the sow fat. because excessive fat
hinders the proper functioning of the
sow's regenerative organs.
