Jones, A k Godding-s & Wc Going Out 01 in Every Dg i call will convince yoi 's Departmei LND MANN "hogging down" farmers fell into dis favor and dropped the practice to a large extent. Meantime, the labor market was tightening, and a (lay's work came to be regarded not so much as something to be gotten out of the farmer or his sons or a hired man, but as a period to be paid for in money that could be used for other purposes. The United States Department of Agriculture and some of the experi ment stations in corn States have of late years given careful attention to the possibilities of feeding stock on the cafeteria plan. Today it is in use on hundreds of Corn Belt farms and in many other localities in all parts of the country where corn is grown. logging (lown) corn saves labor, while causing no more waste than when the corn is harvested andl hand fed. Properly managed, it keeps the hogs in better condition and adds weight more rapidly. It distributes manure uniformly. It leaves the ground in fair condition for the next crop, and it fits in with a rotation system admirably adapted to build i) a run-down farm. A Good Five-Year Rotation A system that is widely used calls for fencing the farm into five parts THE U. 5.

Corn is planted in the first section and as soon as the kernels have become hard the hogs are turned in. As they have been on other feed, it will take a week or 10 days' feed ing to get them entirely .on a corn diet. In the Corn Belt latitude they may be expected to live entirely in the corn field from about September 1.0 until the crop is consumed. It is generally found best not to permit the hogs range of the entire field, but to erect temporary fences. These can easily be built of 25-inch wide wire mesh, fastened to anchor posts at the %ids and tied to cornstalks instead of line posts. If a supplemental crop such as rape, cowpeas, soy beans, or even pumpkins, has been sowed among the corn, it will provide protein feed which the corn lacks. Pigs easily leari to pull down the cornstalks for the ears and waste less than when fed in the yard. The following spring the stalks and trash that remain on the surface of the field are cut over with a sharp disk and the ground prepared for a second crop of corn, which is harvest ed by hand, while the corn for "hog ging down" is planted in the second tract.

Rye Pasture for Hogs in Spring The rye is used for hog pasture, from early spring until the stalks be-' c9me too hard. It will be found valuable pasture for brood sows with young pigs. After the pigs cease to consume the rye they are taken out and not returned until after'the graip becomes ripe, when they arte allowed" to consume the entire croin and graze on the young clover until time to turn them into the corn in September. The clover and timothy come on the, next year and are used for hog pasAI ture and the best narts kept for hay for other stock.
