Velvet Beans for Ilogs. Clemson College, Sept. 5.?Farmers who are planning to hog off corn and velvet beans this faII need a Word of warning iff they have not used this feed before. With fattening hogs no serious trouble will arise from turn ing hogs into the corn and bean fields without any other feed; "but with brood sows many farmers have found that this practice causes abortion and ma 1 formation of pig?. The experience of these men imlloatea that if corn and tankage are f<sl as1 supplements to the corn and Ihnui pasture late in the winter there will (be little trouble from this source. The explanation of this condition says 1). T. Herman, Extension Swine S|M'<*ialist, seems to* lie in the fact that hogs prefer corn to velvet beans ami will not <?t many iK-mis until all the coru is gone 4!iul the i>eans have begun to soften with the fall and win ter ralms. This then loaves a highly nitrogenous feed for the latter p#r* of the winter (ami incidentally the last of the gestation period for most of the sows), ami It Is ?M?PiK>sed that a protein poisoning develop** which causes abortion. Whether this Is the true cause or not practical farmers have found that It pays to break the corn out of the fields ami feed a little each day to the hogs in the bean fields. Ill this way they spread tho oorn <*ver tin* entire winter and have a fatHy well balanced ration all winter in stead of one that is high in stiaivbe* early in the season ami one that Is high in protein later lu the wiuter. Men who handle their hogs lu this way rarely have trouble with abor tion, Farmers in South Carolina are learning that they can not feed on any, one feed satisfactorily whether that feed 1k? corn, velvet beans, tjjea nuts, sweet pptatoesi or even skim milk. Corn Welt farmers learned the same lesson last spring when heavy feeding of corn alone caused a short pig crop. Corn was so cheap that many farmers failed to use supple mentary feed and as a result hail small litters of weak pigs. We have no actual tests with vel vet lK*ans to prove it but we haVe every reason to believe that, although they do not show any decided ill ef fect* of the unbalanced ration, hogs Ih'ing fattened would make more eco nomical gains if the com were spread over the entire feeding period rather than being fed in the first few months as is commonly the case in feeding from corn and bean fields.
