Points' on Hog Feeding
The big thing for the hog fkeder,
to keep in niind; iceerdink to the •
Derninion. Animal Husbandman, - is
"the feeder needs the, frarhe, but the
packer wants the finish"; and the"
ideal type, which sells as the "select"
bacon hog must have both. Grow the
frame first. Never feed more than
pigs will clean up; over feeding, par-
ticularly 'of heavy or unbalanced ra-
tions, causes unthriftiness' which in
turn is the con•imon cause ofahort,
thick pigt., For the first four -months
the pig should clean his trough and
look for more,

Field Crop Figures
Thee fifth departmental report of
the sewn on Field Crops gives some
interesting facts and figures. More
than the ordinary amount of stook
threshing was done this year, blitthe •
weather was not 'too favourable for
this lattempt at labour-saving. Farm -
ere are planning to sow their fall
wheat somewhat later than usual in
order to reduce the likelihood of in-
jury from Hessiail Fly. Buckwheat
and hoed crops have.. made good
growth during the month and excel-
lent yields secured •from second -cut-
ting of, alfalfa. .
The total acreage of field crops
sown in Ontario in 1932 -is-practical-
ly the'same es last year. The most
important' changes in individual ac-
reages occurred in ,barley, buckwheat,
fodder eon'. and alfalfa which showed
increases, and bay clover, beans and
ilotatoes which slum large reductions
,••
in acreage. •The total production of
both beans ,and potatoes , will show
'onsiderable decrease from last year,
for in addition to reduction in acreage
the per acre yields are lower owing
o less favorable growing conditions.
The estimated .average yields of
spring wheat, oats and- barley for
Ontario this year, show little varia-
tion from 'the figures for -1981 Oats
and barley gave rather disappointing
yields in Southwestern Ontario and
slightly higher yields than last year
in other distlets., Per acre yields of
flax and beans show some decrease
over last year, while the yield of
peas is considerably, higher.
