If the farmer does nothing more than raise his own pork, thereby practically eliminating the annual expense of buying meat, much has been done toward reducing the necessary living expenses. A few | hogs can be produced on a great many farms as a by-product, by utilizing the kitchen slop, refuse potatoes, skim milk. etc.. that otherwise are probably wasted. Breeding stock and all young animals need a liberal amount of nutritious food that will develop and maintain muscle and bone. A . re.sonanie ;nn?uni or careful attin-. tion is also necessary if profitable re-i turns are realized. Any kind of live I stock responds favorable to pood, j treatment. The brood sow should be kept in good condition during the development of her pigs, that is, during the gestation period, but do not allow her to become fat. On the other hand, if she is in poor condition when the pigs are farrowed, the pigs come weak and the sow will hardly be able to produce sufficient milk for the litter. The sow must have exceptional care If she produces two litters a year. The following are suitable rations t for the brood sow: (1? Equal parts by weight of ground corn, wheat middlings and ground oats. (2)j Equal parts by weight of rice meal, wheat middlings and ground oats., (3> Equal parts by weight of ricei meal and ground oats. Either rice | meal or wheat middlings may be fed alone, but a variety of feeds is preferable. Wheat bran may be used as part of the ration for mature > breeding hogs, but it is too bulky to ? constitute the entire ration. Skim milk and buttermilk are excellent, for both growing and mature hogs and should be used when available, j The young pigs if given an opportunity will soon learn to eat. They j should bo weaned when about seven weeks old, if skim milk ran be Riven them arid it is desired to rai*<? two litters a year. Otherwise the pig* may be allowed to run with the dam for ten weeks or even longer. Sonn breeders depend on the sow to wean ( her pies. The sow should have only dry feed for several days i:' the pigs are taken from her. This is to aid j In drying up the udder. MFJHCINK Oil FOOD.
