Pig Palaces a Blunder Both Physi- cally and Financially—•Senitatioin Is as important as Feeding— Mineral Feeds Prevent Break- dowI\In Swine. (Contributed Ontarioytre. TDepartment of High efficiency at a very low Shel- ter or building equipment cost is more easily obtained in swine rear- ing by the use of the Colony house system than any other method. Expensive Piggeries a Blunder Physically. On farms where but one or two brood sows are kept and these have to rustle around the barnyard and hunt part' el their food and arrange their own sleeping quarters beneath the straw stack, one seldom sees dis- eased, unthrifty or crippled Pigs. In contrast to the "little accommoda- tion" that the farm yard affords, `we have the pig palaces or expensive pig- geries. The best of the expensive structures do no better for us than the barnyard when only one or two brood sows and their families aro considered. Many of these` structures have proven to be much too heavy a charge to carry, in that the results were frequently unsatisfactory and that there was always an interest charge against the investment. .-anitation as important as Feeding. Sanitation is a very important fac- tor in swine rearing, in fact just as much so as feeding. During the summer period when swine are given the freedom of fields or wood lot— natural conditions — the question of sanitation has not to be considered, but just as soon as the pig is en- closed, or kept under conditions that are getting away from nature the question of sanitation at once be- comes apparent, and if neglected trouble follows. The pigs are healthy when out on the clean fresh soil, and the farther we get them away from such surroundings the more likely ,eve are to have trouble. The colony house has been used by many farmers and breeders with success, but its use can be extended to every farm where pigs are kept. In the milder sections where the tempera- tures are not below zero for very tong periods the colony house can be auccessfuily used during the entire year to the complete excleeien of the xpensive permanently situated large piggery.

A Hodgins, Clerk. - ;Quite a numberpeopl`= in town lis- are giving the Albiexta ` oal a trial. be They report that .it is proving' very Satisfactory: Mistake Financially. Swine are kept by the majority of farmers with the intention that pro- fit shall result from the undertaking. rhe chance of making a profit is in- fluenced by a number of factors, one of which is the overhead or equip- ment charge against the operation. If a farmer has a $2,000 piggery building then the first $200 received from swine sales each year goes to paying interest on the building in- vestment. If the same number of swine could be produced in buildings costing but $100 then the amount Una would have to- betaken from th:; yearly s -wine sales to pay over- .IeaCl or interest on building equip- :nent would be only $10. The greater r.he building equipment per animal Illy, the greater the portion of sales :.cei_;ts that must go to pay for that .yui:us.;; equipment. The barnyard -eared pig will have but little charg- ed harded against him under buildings or swelter, but the barnyard capacity .s generally limited to one litter or the family of one sow. Many farmers desire to keep more than one sow, hence the necessity for • building equipment of some sort especially for the use of the swine. Piggeries hav- ing accommodation for the litters of four to six sows will require an .. eight pen building with feed room ac: commodation costing if fairly well constructed not less than $1,604', or at the rate of.,$200 per pen. An equal amount of money would build five colony houses and a feeding sned with storage cement- floor and hurliles; for yard divisions.- A very good colony house 'can be built for $100, or a cheaper structure can be put to- •gether for half that amount. With the increasing- cost of building ma- terial , andlabor and •a ;correspond- ing paring down of profitssin Swine rearing the colony house will be a greater factor in the future than, it has been in the past. If you are interested in colony houses or other .shelter for swine write to the De- partment of Agriculture at Toronto. —L. Stevenson, Toronto. ■ Furniture Dealer 86 Fireral.Director �..

Every mile of roadway. espe- cially through the Canadian Parks where it has, in many places, been cut out of solid rock and at stupend- t ous cost, has been built with, an eye to easytravelling and scenic gran- deur , and from early spring until late in the fall a continuous stream of automobiles, bearing licences issued in every town on the con- tinent, pour along the highway. No- where else can the motorist obtain such a long run through such ever changing scenes of natural beauty. During the past few years it has become quite the thing to motor through vacation time, and those win choose this way of holidayir.t are unanimous in their choice of a "bunt- ing ground." British Columbia and the rockies are not the things to be "done," because having travelled through - them once means never to have willingly done with the country No less attractive on acount of its Mineral Feeds Prevent Breakdown In Swine.

Island. The city of Victoria at the southern extremity of the island is the hub from which the "round the Island" and shorter roads radiate. and the tov i itself, with its broom decked hills. its thousand gardens. its avenues of hawthorn, acacia, lyburnum and other fragrant trees is the goal of all who having covered the scenic routes of the mainland would still enjoy the pleasures of the road without travelling the same road again and those who are at- tracted to the island by its particular type of .beauty which is after the English style with "just enough of the tropics thrown in." The passage to the Island is usually made by ferry from Van- couver, or Bellingham in the State of 'Washington to Victoria or one of the west coast ports nearby. The Canadian Pa. ific Railway Company ce a new service lass this year pet into :automobile ferry, the "Motor Prin- cess," a motor driven vessel which operates between Bellingham and 'Victoria and which, with a capacity for fifty - automobiles and well ap- pointed accommodation for 250 passengers, plies twice daily. .The route traversed by the ferry is marked by islands, some of which are miles in extent, others gem like islets thrusting up from smiling seas: making the waterway a sneers- sien of pictures to wbtch the most faris•s of salon hangings cannot cow._are.
