Some experiments were conducted. by Professor Henry at the Wisconsin station to determine the cost of pro- ducing gains ,in pigs during the suck- ling period and after weaning. In discussing the results of these experi- ments Professor Henry says that It thus appears that young unweaned' pigs are fed more economically through. the sow than after weaning. This means that at no time in the pig's life are gains made with such econo- my as during the suckling period. Un- derstanding this principle. the good hog man will always feed his sows and pigs most liberally before weaning. Even with the best of feeding a good brood sow will usually lose weight during the suckling period. A. milk producing ration must of nes cessity contain a liberal allowance of nitrogenous material Alfalfa pasture supplies protein, but the brood sow must have additional protein in a more concentrated form. This can be sup - Our Annual Sumner Calla. pip]. for Non -Fertile New -Laid Fns Began This Week .,A FEW SUGGESTIONS HOW TO GET FIRST CLASS EGGS IN HOT WEATHER.— As a hog possessing all the hardi- ness, vitality and prolificacy of the animal of pioneer days and equal- ing any other breed for smooth fin- ish, docility, easily maturing and. fattening qualities .the Hampshire is the ideal, says an admirer of that breed. In form, color and carriage It Is the most attractive of all hogs. The most fashionable color Is black with a wide white hand extending around the body, including the fore legs. The Hampshire has a email head, light jowl, broad back and heavy hams and is active and mus- cular. The Hampshire boar pie- tured was a prize winner at -Chica- go last fall. FEEDING COWS FOR - MILK PRODUCTION In addition to roughage consisting of silage and alfalfa an excellent ration for dairy cows can be . provided by mixing together equal parts of such feeds as ground corn. grouudl oats, bran, gluten feed, distillers' grain, cot- tonseed meal, linseed meal and hominy feed. Such a ration may be teemed abasic rotate says Kimball's Dairy - .harmer. After starting the cow' on five or six pounds of it three clays after freshening the ration may be raised at the rate of one-half pound every other day, and just occasionally the increase may be as great as one pound. It should be remembered that during the first thirty days if the ,cow is in proper condition she will make as great response to the addition of one-half pound or one pound of grain ns she will to four or five pounds, and by retaining the opportunity for in- creasing, the ration more often it is plied most cheaply by the use of tank age, although some hog men strongly, advocate the use of linseed oil meal. With the present prices prevailing for corn, shorts and bran, we would ad- vise the making of the ration not to exceed 50 per cent corn. The brood sows at the Kansas Agri. cultural college at the present time are being fed on a ration made up as follows: Fifty pounds of corn, twenty- five pounds of shorts, eighteen pounds of bran, four pounds of tankage and three pounds of linseed oil meal. This makes a splendid ration for a brood sow suckling pigs. in addition they' should always have access to good -al- falfa hay and alfalfa or other pasture as soon as such pasture is available. The quantity of the suggested grain ration to feed will depend somewhat on the individual sow. The aimshould be to feed each sow all she will clean up with an appetite.

Itis well to bear In mind that pure milk is not produced in a barn that has strong odors; that clean milk i9 not drawn from dirty or filthy cows; that the milker's hands should be clean; that the open milk pall is a dirt catcher; that milk is not clean unless' some effort has been made to prevent it from getting dirty and that it Is more sensible to keep dirt out of milk than It is to rely on stratts]ng it out. 1 O'a.aratc the Hogs. : iii old he x,'pareted accord- oe.; i, age end sive or iIo,' the larger find stronger autulals will "hog" all the feed.

A pure bred animal, as we ordinarily use the term, is one that comes from parents that are either registered os eligible to registration in the herd booll of a particular breed, says E. T. Black in the Rural New Yorker. All the breeding' associations of repute require that both sue and dam meet the above requirements before an animal can be recorded. The pure bred animal is su- perior to the scrub in many ways, the moat important of which is its greater productive capacity of growth fn pounds for a given time and the pro- lificacy in size and quality of litters produced. Not all pure bred animals companies are liable for birds in ship- ment to the amount specified as their value by shipper' 'at points of ship- ment. The whites of eggs are not only an antidote for certain poisons, but often save persons from choking to death. The slippery albumen poured down the victim's throat makes the obstacle slip quickly into the stomach. For horses and cattle the whites should be placed- in a wide mouthed bottle, the head thrown back and contents emp- tied into throat or nostril. The law now demands tbat crates for live poultry must be thirteen inch- es high and covered on the top by, mesh not to exceed one inch in size. Fowls with crushed heads and legs are nearly always found in shipments by the did style slat crate method and crates with large mesh, but the ex press companies in this vicinity now refuse birds crated in such slipshod style. Ten years ago government experts declared the American ben's average was forty-one eggs per year. The egg crop then was 1,293,662,433 dozen. They have' now revised their' figures, q making the average sixty-one eggs. per year, the crop now being 1,591,311, 371 dozen. As no census has yet been made that included all the poultry in this country and no special enumera- tion of hens has yet been made, how do these experts get their conclusion? It's a safe bet that they counted in the roosters. , The Ohio State university is raising pure bred roosters and selling them to fanners at 50 cents apiece. This is certainly a precticnt way to build up the flocks, and many a farmer outside Ohio would be glad to see his own state experiment farm follow the seine plan. hens mast have a certain amount of roughage to' balance up their ;;gain ra- tion, and if it isn't supplied they will fill up with l:h'iuv or hay to supply ly p . the deficiency, Clover anti alfalfa cut in short lengths. ea him go. sprouted oats. mangel Deets till the bill.

Care must be exercised after the cow has- closely approached the limit of the amount of food she can consume with- out hurting herself in twenty-four lours, and by no means at that time should the ration be increased more •apidly than one-half pound every oth- er day. Every cow has two limits—namely, the limit of her capacity and the limit of her ability. The limit of her ea- pacity signifies the amount of food she can consume in twenty-four hours. The limit of her ability signifies the amount of milk she is capable of giv- ing in twenty-four hours. Wise feed- ers do not try to reach the limit of a COW'S capacity, but strive to provide her with just as much feed as is nec- essary to stimulate her to work to tha limit of her ability. There is no way of determining this other than by weighing the feed and weighing the milk. After the cow has reached the limit of her ability to yield milk the feeder needs to change her ration from time to time both in character and amount in order that the cow keeps in good working condition and produces her maximum amount of milk. If it be noted that the cow is pro- ducing a large flow of milk and be- coming thin in flesh, then it is neces- sary to add carbohydrates to the ration in substitution for some of the protein food. Carbonaceous foods are as fol- lows: Ground corn, hominy feed. corn silage and barley. On the other hand, if the cow seems to be laying fat upon her body at the expense of the mill: pail, then it is advisable to substitute for a portion of the carbonaceous foods those rich in protein, such as gluten feed, oil meal, bran and ground oats. COST OF SILAGE. Varies Widely In Different Sections of the United States, Investigations conducted by the dairy division of the United States depart- ment of agriculture during the past few years with eighty-seven silos in various parts of the United States in- dicate the cost of filling to be an aver- age of 87 cents per ton. The cost of growing the silage crop was $1.58 per ton on the average, which, added to the filling cost, makes the average to- tal cost of silage $2.45 per ton. However, no definite statement can be made as to the exact cost of silage, as so much depends upon the yield per. acre, cost of productiou and other con- ditions that vary so greatly in differ- ent sections of the country. For the individual farms under consideration the cost of silage varied from $1.10 to $5.42 per ton. The investigators state that $1:50 to $3,50 per, ton represents the limits between which most of the silage is produced: While the Duroc-Jersey is classed as a lard hog, it dresses a high per- centage of meat of excellent qual- ity. Its color is red, and in size it is larger than either Berkshires or Poland Chinas. Mature Duroc boars average 600 pounds and sows 500. The sows of this breed are prolific, and . the pigs aro early maturers. The illustration shows a pure bred Duroc-Jersey sow. are superior to the scrub from the standpoint of production, but the ma- jority are. Some of our breeds of swine have been selected and bred with this particular end in view for upward of a century. And the princi- pal breeds are old enough to be very prepotent. Perhaps the second greatest factor in favor of the pure bred is the certainty that excellence will occur. The sire is generally more than half the herd. Most breeders pay more heed to the se- lection of the right kind of a herd boar than the selection of the females to breed to them. More imp@ovement can be brought about by the use of a right kind of a boar than In any other way. If you use a boar of quality with un- derstanding you need have no fear of the results. As a breeder I am often asked, "Do you advise cross breeds or, as termed by some, cross breeding?" In answer to this all important quer tion I will state there is absolutely nothing to be gained, but everything to be lost. Therefore my advice is, what- ever breed of swine you keep, maintain and perpetuate it in its purity. Rape Pasture For Hogs. A good, mellow seed bed should be prepared, and the richer the ground the greater will be the ln'odpcteou of forage. The crop will ordinarily be toady to graze in six weeks from the time it is sown. 'When it has reached n height of ten or twelve inches the hogs may be turned in 1f it is allowed to get toolarge au'tl rank the bogs may` not out it readily. Where several lots are available it is a splendid. plan to matte successive seedlings so that the bogs may be moved to a fresh lot as soon as one is grazed down. If rape is not grazed too closely It will.'con- tinue to grow when the hogs are re- moved. end later they may be turned WAS BOTHERED WITH BILIODSHESS AND SOUR STO'A©N EG 2 YE ftkRS Sour Stomach and Biliousness are caused by a sluggish Liver, for when it is not working properly, it holds back the bile, which is so essential to promote the movement of the bowels, and the bile gets into the blood instead of passing through the usual channel, thus causing many stomach and bowel troubles. Mr. Charles Pettit, 256; Richmond Street, London, Ont., writes:—"I feel it my duty to write you a few lines in regard to your Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills. I have been bothered with Biliousness and Sour Stomach for twenty years until a year ago I started to use Laxa-Liver Pills, and I have not been bothered since. I wish to let it be known to all those who suffer as,I did." Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills are 25 cents per vial or 5 vials for $1.00.

Jogging Laziness into Activity The merchant whose business lags in the summer''; has himself to thank. To slacken the selling pace in the hot season—to lessen Advertising activity—indicates a resignation which has no place in modern business. If we tlainlc we cannot keep our business booming in summer time, we surely will not. What a jolt it must have been to the fur trade, when , the first mid -summer fur advertisement was run in • a daily paper! Now many fur stores are following the example of that progressive fur man who dared ' to believe that fur sales need not go down as the .mercury goes up. Energy, linked with Advertising, has turned the month of January into the biggest selling season for white goods. Advertisements of a high stimulau tive power, combined with a disregard of "seasons,", have opened up automobile selling two months earlier than was once thought possible. Advertising has started Christmas shopping early in October' 'instead of the middle of December. Advertising rises superior to seasons and thermom. eters. The right kind' of Advertising strikes a responsive cord in human nature -and human nature is the same in August as in December.
