ALFALFA FAVORED
FOR HOG PASTURE

Alfalfa is the best pasture crop for
hogs where conditions are favorable
for its growth. 1t not only has high
er feeding value than clover or blue
grass, but remains green and succu.
lent during the hot summer months
when blue grass has dried up and
clover is often hard and dry.
Alfalfa is ready for pasturing early
In the spring and continues until late
IN the fall. 1t has the advantage of
lasting through a number of seasons
while clover and rape must be reseed-
ed. When alfalfa is not pastured
heavily one or two light crops of hay
can be cut during the season. This
IS good practice in pasturing because
neavy grazing tends to kill out the
stand. Alfalfa is suitable pasture
crop for all classes of hogs, but is
especially valuable for brood sows and
young pigs. Its high protein and lime
content makes it valuable for growth
and milk production.
good stand of alfalfa will Craze
eighteen to twenty fulfilled hogs per
acre, while the number will be reduced
to six or seven when the hogs are be-
ing grown on half-feed of grain. I'm
der average conditions four or five
brood sows and their filters can be
pastured on an acre of alfalfa. AL
though alfalfa ranks at the top of the
pasture crops as a supplement to corn
for hogs, it is usually advisable to
add tankage or some other high-pro-
TEN concentrate to the ration, espe-
c1ally for young growing pigs.
Recent tests at the Purdue expert
ment station show that spring pigs fed
for market on alfalfa pasture made
more rapid gains and saved more corn
and tankage than those on clover.
In two trials the pigs on alfalfa gained
an average of 1.76 pounds daily and
required 331 pounds of corn and 80
pounds of tankage per 100 pounds
gain, while On clover the average daily
gain was 1.68 pounds, with feed re-
quirement Of 1856 pounds Of corn and
80 pounds Of tankage per 100 pounds
of gain
A good pasture crop is essential for
the most economical pork production.
In fact, it is so important that it often
makes the difference between profit
and loss in the business.

Odd Way to Bring Rain

Rain-making is supposedly achieved
by novel methods by peasants in the
Punjab. An investigator into customs
and methods visited village where t
had not rained for long time The
anxious women Of the village gathered
around the officers tent and requested
to be allowed to souse him with water,
as they believed that the performance
Of such rite would bring down rain
at once. The official refused to be
drenched, for two days, but he gave
way on the third. Twenty pots Of
water were poured on the unwilling
head of the official outside his tent
and after "a hours the rain came.

For Proper Development
Young Colt Needs Care

The colt, to develop into a strong,
rugged, growthy horse, must not be
stunted the first year of its life. If
the feed box is placed low, the foal
will begin eating with its mother when
three or four weeks old and will ac-
quire taste for grain. The earlier 1t
learns to eat the sooner it will relieve
the mare to the extent that she will
be able to do more work If the mare
is not being worked and is running on
grass creep should be made to
allow the colt to eat at will while on
pasture. Good rations for the creep
are crushed oats with bran or parts
crushed corn, parts bran and l part
linseed meal. Colts should be given
alfalfa hay as soon as they will eat it.
When the mare is being worked the
colt should be kept in a cool, dark
stall during the day where it will not
be bothered by flies and where 1t will
be safe from injury. Colts should not
be allowed to follow the mare in the
field. When the colt is small the mare
should be brought to the barn to
Suckle the colt in the middle of the
forenoon and again in the middle of
the afternoon. After the colt becomes
older it may be allowed to nurse only
when the mare is brought in at meal
time
Mares at hard work and nursing a
strong foal should be fed heavily to
insure good few Of milk. If the
mare is worked during the day the
mare and colt should be turned on
grass at night. If creep is not used
for colts while running in the pasture
they should be given a good ration of
grain in the barn twice q daY

SCOTTISH PLAIDS
OF MANY COLORS
N0fion0 Costume Distin-
guished for Bright Hues.

Everyone has heard of Scotch plaid,
know what a Scotch plaid really is.
In Gaelic, the word is "pellaid," and
means sheepskin or hide From this
is derived the Gaelic ''plaide." mean
ing blanket. So you see that the
plaid is in reality a piece of mate
rial, and not a pattern, as we Trims
of it,
The plaid Is also called tartan"
and as a garment is worn by both men
and women in Scotland, where it forms
an important part of the national cos
tune. The peculiar patterns, consist
ing of crossbars of stripes of various
coors. are said formerly to have dis
tinguished the Scottish Highland clans,
each clan having it's own particular
plaid.
Do you remember in your Sir Wal
ter Scott's Lady Of the Lake." how
Frederick threw down his target and
his plaid"? Thus, it is plain that the
plaid is a garment or shawl woven in
the check patterns of peculiar kind,
but the terms have become confused,
and so used interchangeable. Some
times you will hear a shawl referred
to as plaid. and just as frequently,
the pattern on it is called a tartan.
Some of the clans had more than
one plaid, for use on different occa-
sions. For instance, the royal Stuart
has plaid OF bright red foundation,
squared off With greenish bars, inter-
spersed with narrow black and white
stripes. But the Stuart hunting
plaid" has green foundation blocked
with black and blue crossings, with an
overplaiding of red and yellow. At
the same time there is d dress Stuart"
which has a white foundation, and
plaidings of red, blue, black and yell
low.
For the most part, these real Scot
fish plaids are made up Of simple col
orings, bright red. a canary yellow.
dark purple, dark blush green, with a
black, and a white. OF course, wher-
ever the different stripes cross each
other in the plaidS, a modified blend
of these colors will appear. Nat

tive to their beloved heaths. There is
the black from the alder-tree bark and
dock-root; blue from the BURBERRY
and elderberry; crimson from the dark
lichens; and green from the broom.
thistle, heather and wild cress. The
dyes produced in the old ways were
very fast In color, and it is said that
many of them are still produced in
the Highlands.
Naturally, when a design has been
as omnipresent as the plaids this sea-
son, there is always a great deal Of
interest aroused as to its origin in his
tory and story. And while it may not
always be possible, or even desirable.
to reproduce the exact patterns of the
various clans, generally the colorings
have been more or less faithfully adj
hered to in order to give to our mod
ern plaiding the name of Scotch

Fattening Lambs on Soy
Beans Is Satisfactory

Soy-bean hay is somewhat inferior
to alfalfa hay for fattening lambs, ac-
cording to tests conducted by the ILL
nois experiment station. The hay re-
quired was about 20 per cent greater
with soy-bean hay than with alfalfa.
The edible portion of the soy-bean hay
was, however. as palatable as alfalfa,
and as efficient in producing gains, but
1t contained more refuse.
Soy-bean oil meal, when used as a
supplement to shelled corn and soy
bean straw, gave more rapid gains and
required less grain than did Iinseed
meal.
Soy-bean straw proved superior to
oat straw as feed for lambs. When
oat straw was fed with shelled corn
and soy-bean oil meal, the gains were
less than with soy-bean straw and the
same concentrates.

ever paid for racehorse. He was
taken back to England in July, 1929
and died at the Gotham stud, Surrey.
