S1,000,000 Loss The pork made from pastured pigs Is the pork that pays. 'Half acre lots are excellent, with a house in each, the swine to be allowed to feed in a lot until It is trampled and cropped down and then kept out of it until recovery has taken place, says Farm and Fireside. Vetch, rape, clover, alfalfa, cowpeas and many other crops willin this way go much further than when .fed continuously. A lot may be plowed and sowed white the one adjoining it is being fed. A good system is to place a house in the division fence, with a swinging door in each end, as in Illustration. With one door barred the hogs have access to but one lot. 1 Miter YOUNG MARES FOR BROOD PUiRPOSES temporary shed about a foot apart This top was covered with straw s few inches thick and several rails thrown on top of the whole thing to hold the straw down when it was vera windy. An inexpensive but almost necessary thing in the farrowing pen is a railing around the outside to keep the sows from smothering the pigs for the first few days. A. plank from eight to twelve inches wide is set ten or twelve inches from the floor and either nailed or stalled to the outside of the pen of building. This leaves a protected place under the plank where the son cannot get into, but where the plies car easily slip away when otherwise she would crush them between the wall and herself. Itis estimated:by the Government 'that keeping keeping the male birds with the poultry flocks after the breeding sea :son, is costing the Canadian farmers over $1,000.000 each year It is therefore to the advantage of .every egg producer' to get rid; of all cockerels at onee .Just Received a Carload of Bran and Shorts, fib: JA In his hook on "Management and Breeding of Horses" M, W. Harper has this to say on the breeding of two- year-old fillies: Amon • practleai horse breeders there is much difference of opinion as to the ;advisability of breeding n two-year-old mare, \]any persons' assert that the, breeding of ,i tilly at so early an age tends to retard her development, that she will not make so large or vigorous an animal as she otherwise would and that the foal is hrandleapped' in its de- velopment because of having an im- mature dam. On the other hand, there are breeders who state that early preg nuuey has a tendency to stimulate the development of the clam, to increase the fertility. and that the first foal; 1f from a filly at least threesears of age, stands just as good a chance as the first foal from a mature mare. • From experience It seems that the practicability of- breedin • a two-year- old filly depends on at least three fac- tors—the breed, the individuality of the mare and ,the object sought. As a rule. horses of the heavy type mature younger than those of the light type. A draft filly at two years of age 1s running g astrotting. often mature as i r or saddle tilly at three years of age. Individual mares differ in the way they mature, as a smoothly turned, neat and well finished one develops much younger than a rough, coarse and growthy individual. Maturity is influenced by the feed and care. A filly that is kept' growing continuously Young Stock on the Farm. ' Plenty of young stock on the farm is the very best indication that the farm• er is progressive. The man who has pigs, calves and other young stud around Him is surely looking into the future and providing for an income year after year. flYe have a few SackS Of Calf Idleal „left which we are Selling at. Retlaiaced, Price Vary the Stock Feeds. If you have several kinds of rough feed on hand it will be a good plan to mix them up in feeding. Stock like a change of feed as well as you do, and if their breakfast can be of one kind and their supper of another so much the better. . ..1 WHAT'S BACK OF THEM? Whenever we see a bunch of chicks that question arises, What's back of them? For ancestry with them is a matter of strength or weakness, profit or loss, life or death, and it settles whether they fulfill the purpose for which they were brought into the world. 1f parent stock has vigor, 'Like be- gets like." If pure bred, progeny comes the same. if ancestry is fine for mars ket meat or prolific in eggs, we expect these qualities in the young. If chick- ens arehatched for broilers, roasters or layers and healthy breeds proves bonton for such are used, we expect the chicks to be in line with their an- cestry. "Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." ' "Do men gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles?" This Is old doctrine, but it applies to. modern poultry culture as it did to the hen and her ,product over 3,000 years ago. , This raises the question, What kind of breeders will back our chicks this season? On their quality depends oar success or failure. We have frequently been called, on as state expert to give a reason for failures in, the poultry business here and there in Pennsylvania. An investi- gation has in almost every case shown poor foundation` stock. Yes, a poor foundation spells ruin fq every department of life.
