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.

"Is it as bad as that?" inquired a
sympathetic friend.
"Well," he answered glumily,' "the
soles are so thin that when I step on
a penny I can tell -whether it's heads
or tails."
