The condition of the sow and boar at breeding has much to do with the quality, strength and 'size el the cum - lag litter. Proper feed ansi exercise outdoors, is absolutely necessary for suceess with the pregnant sow. The correet feeding and exercising of the milking sow is one of the in,ost im- portant steps in making market hogs of her litter. These steps in the making, of a bacon hog aside from the actual market feeding of the season's pig era)), btit-thei`ProPer aPPreciation of their importance is absolutely es- sential. Feeding the weaning pig.—There are theusande of little pigs from the best at breeding stock ruined annually through improper or overfeeding from -weaning time to three months of age. Overfeeding at this stage makes a short, fat, dumpy, poor quality hog, finished before he is heavy enough, and liable to crippling. Start the little pig at 4 to 5 weeks el age with a creep or separate pen to feed in. Feed middlings mixing small quantities at a time with sweet skim-roilk. This gets the little pig gradually prepared for weaning. Scattering a few handfuls e good plump whole oats in the litter is good praetice. After weaning is the criti- eal thetre. The following is a good re- ticle for the weaned pig: Oats (either finely ground well filled eats, feeding oatmeal or, better still, ground hulless oats), 50 lbe.; middlings, 25 lbs.; shorts, 25 lbs.; ground flax or linseed meal, 5 lbs.; 'tankage, 3 lbs. This may be varied provided that the crude fibre in the mixture IS kept low, and the fat content, :fairly high. For -the two to three menthe pig of 50 lb -a. feed a pound or an of the mixture daily. Soak for 12 to 24 hours before hand. Feed with 5 lb,s. of skint -milk daily. After the pig is well over weaning the milk may be fed better soured (not de- COMPosed). Here are the three fundamentals in successfully feeding the weaning pig: 1. Keep hirn hungry. Have hint aqueal- ing for his -rations an hour before they are due. 2- Keep his pen clean, but see that the bat -tarn of his trough is the cleanest part of his pen, 3. See tialt he gets exercise outdoors in the summer, or in a well bedded pen or shed in the winter or early spring. From three to Tour months use a Mixture of oats 50 lbs., shorts 50 Ibs., -middlings 25 lbs., corn or barley 26 lbs,, linseed meal 5 per cent.; or equal parts of eats, shorts and barley with milk as- tankage. From four to five months a mixture of oats, shorts and barley or corn, equal parts with 5 per cent, oil meal. For the finish the corn may be inireased either by feeding whole or -adding te the ground meal rrinuaire. General roles: 1. Do not overfeed in an effort to finish a pig in record time. 2. Where milk is not available tank- age roay be fed 3 per tent. to 10 per cent, depending cnu th,e pig's age, Best results are obtained by feeding it in self-feedeP. 3.
