the one given, but care should always
he taken to nrix food that produces
mainly fat with oilier foods that tend
to produce chiefly, muscle and bone In
the ratio of otic part of the former to
two parts of tlie latter. Oatmeal w ith

Nearly all kind* of 4tg»'table* used In
fJlinceiloti with the dlffercht grains i*
aery highly rpcotlnnerufed by the dif
ferent breeders. “*
It sliouhl always he remembered that
Regularity ia foo.itug and variety in
food without abrupt change* amt fre
quent access to fresh water are the es
sentials to suucessful swine breeding.
When the pigs are 3 weeks old they
should be fed hy themselves, where the
♦lam cannot be with them. This can
he done by fencing off a olaee about ten
fc A square wear the Hediog place, leav
ing a small oyiening largo enough for
tlie pigs to t'nter. wrtnjte •they should he
J-d regularly of ground feed and milk,
If it can be had. After the pigs are
about U wee s old their rations should
).v increased gra<luRlly sod that of the
1 am b^ slightly decreased for the next
1 ao week-, when tlie pig* will tie old
• trough to wean, and w ill have made a
lapnl growth, and be well advanced on
tno road to market. From this time on
tnev should he fed all that they wifi Wat
w ith apparent relish, without Vastlng
any tood. In thi* manner the pigs wil
I nprovu very fast, and he' in conditfon
lor market wbeucv«:r you are ready to
kcil.
As pig* raised in tills way at the age
oft! mouth* ought to weigh from 2(H) to
2.'»0 (touads, tlie average farmer can
readily sec the pit fit in a well-tended
pig over that kept in a half-starved
condition that w ill reach the age of 12
oiionths before itcan spring InO pounds,
which is quite common 011 any farm.
A mixture of salt and ashes, one part
of the former to two part* of tlie latter,
whould be kept ftt « dry phtyc where the
^iog* can get at it any time they desire,
and it w ill he surprising how much of
It they w ill eat. And charertai, if kept
