thin and practically half starved. That
is a mistake. There is no time in the
life of a sow when she requires good
food and suitable quarters more than
when she is carrying and nourishing
her young. She bhould be kept in a
fair condition of flesh, caused to take
plenty of exercise, and left to sleep in
shelter on a dry, sandy soil or earthen
floor with a small quantity of bedding.
Some sows are so ill-nourished and
others so excessively fat that their
young when farrowed are too weakly
to live. Sometimes sows are deprived,
especially during the winter months,
of access to mineral matter. It is a
good plan to stack a quantity of sods
in the autumn and throw a sod six or
eight inches square by two or three
Inches thick to every sow every day.
A treatment like that helps to keep
sows in such good health that they
drop well-nourished and therefore
well-born pigs.
Ten days or a fortnight before the
sow Is due to farrow she should be put
into the pen and fed there mornings
and nights. During the day she may
be allowed to take exercise with the
rest of the herd. For three days be-
fore the farrowing she should be kept
in the pen continuously. In that \\ ay
she comes to recognize and is not
afraid of her attendant. She should be
allowed plenty of bedding for the mak-
ing of her nest. A sow carries her
young from 112 to 116 days.
Sometimes a sow will attempt to eat
her young. That is usually because
she has been badly nourished or is in
ill-health. If she has had an allowance
of enough of sods every day, or access
to a mixture of salt and wood ashes,
that will usually prevent any inclina-
tion to eat her pigs. There is the in-
stinct of motherhood for piolectlng
her young. If a stranger goes into the
pen where the sow is lying with her
new litter, tries to remove them and
makes them squeal, the sow mother
will be apt to seize anything—a young
pig as likely as anything else. It is a
good thing to let the sow become used
to the appearanca and even the clothes
and voice of her attendant. One has
hardly ever known of a sow running
on a pasture field eating her pigs. It
is a good plan to give a sow an allow-
ance of roots daily during the winter.
Every care should be exercised to
prevent the sow from becoming con-
stipated before or after she has far-
rowed; and for three or four days
after she has farrowed she should be
fed sparingly. There is danger of milk
fever until the young are able to take
all the milk which she can give. It
is a good plan to have the young pigs
so hungry the third day as to be
squealing for more milk. Immediate
ly after the young have been born tuc
sow should receive a drink of warm
water with a handful of shorts or bran
stirred in it. A litter of young pigs
will increase in weight at the late of
from two to four pounds a day, conse-
quently after they are a week old the
sow should be fed in such a way as to
promote the production of milk. Dur-
ing cold weather it will be found profit-
able to give the sow her feed in a
warm condition, at a temperature any-
where from 80 to 90 degrees. Skim-
milk, buttermilk, shorts, bran, ground
oats, with a small quantity of oil cake,
make excellent feeds. The shorts and
a chance to take plenty of excrclM.
From the tlmo Cie pigs are weaned
a moderate supply of sklra milk, but-
termilk, green clover or similar food
will promote the growth of muscles,
which become lean flesh.
Want of exercise and want of flesh-
producing food duriug tho period of
their growth will prevent any breed
of hogs from developing the fleshy
qualities which are wanted In tho ba-
con and hams. It is Improbable that
any kind of feed during the fattening
of animals can result in producing a
large proportion of lean flesh unless
the animals are well grown during the j
two months which follow tho time they
are weaned. A pig should grow from
the time it is born until it goes to mar-
ket for killing. Every day that It
stands still lessens the profit which
its owner might make out of it.
It will be found a profitable prac-
tice to have a small clover field for a
pig pasture. If clover is not available,
a fair pasture may be made from a
small field of winter rye or from a
field sown with a mixture of spring
rye, oats and pea3. Tho pigs should
be fed morning and evening a small
quantity of grain and about one gal-
lon of skim-milk or buttermilk to
every three pigs per day. As a rule,
under these conditions It does not pay
to feed a larger quantity of milk. If
the pigs have access to a mixture of
charcoal and salt, to wood ashes and
salt, they will not root the ground very
much. If they have to be ringed they
should be ringed on both sides of the
nose and not deep Into the middle of
the nose. The castration should be
done when they are three weeks old.—

Agriculture for the Dominion of Can-
ada.

Poet (.rinding Kafir Corn Tny f
From Farmers1 Review: Kafir
corn Is a grain that must be ground if
the best and most economical results
in feeding it are to bo obtained. In
Its natural slate It Is so small and hard
that most animals masticate It with
iifflculty. Sheep and very young pigs
and calves will masticate it pretty
thoroughly If fed in limited quantities.
On the other hand, with mature cat
tie or hogs a large per cent passe,
through the animal if the Kafir corn
is fed without grinding. Soaking is a
detriment, as more will pass through
than when fed in the dry state. Cattle
and hogs make decidedly better gains,
in most cases, on the meal than they do
on the whole grain. The following fig-
ures have just been obtained In an
experiment at this station. The Kafir
corn was fed, as prepared in the fol-
lowing methods, to a steer, and tho
percentages show the amounts of grain
that passed through him in a form
that could be separated mechanically:
Per Cent.
Kafir corn heads 30.82
Whole Kafir corn 37.40
Cracked Kafir corn 11.58
Coarse ground Kafir corn ".92
Fine ground Kafir corn 6.25
According to these results, when
Kafir corn is fed whole, more than
one-third of it passes through tho ani-
mal unmasticated to any considerable
degree. This was when it was fed to
a steer receiving about two-thirds of a
rull feed. It 1s true that this is not a
total loss, as it can be utilized by
hogs following, but it is poor economy
to tax an animal's system so unneces-
sarily. We are carrying on similar
experiments with corn for comparison.
From previous investigations In the
same line, where corn meal and Kafir
corn meal wore fed to steers it was
found that more than tv ice as much of
the Kafir meal passed through the ani-
mal as did of the corn meal.

WEANING.
A common practice has been to al-
low the pigs to suckle until they are
six weeks old; then they are suddenly
weaned and one or two pigs are left
to keep the sows udder from inflam-
mation. That course has a tendency
t0 stunt the pigs which are taken
away and when a pig is once stunted
In its' growth It hardly ever recovers
what it lost. A pig should be left to
suck not less than eight weeks. They

The Experiment Stations.
Dr. A. C. True, director of the Office
of Experiment Stations, in his report to
the Secretary of Agriculture of the op-
erations of that office during the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1898, states that
the agricultural experiment stations
are, as a rule, working more thorough-
ly and efficiently for the benefit of
American agriculture than ever be-
fore. The appropriation of $720,000 by
congress for the support of the sta-
tions was supplemented by over $400,-
00J state funds.
The experiment stations should be
made still more effective, and to this
end they should everywhere be organ-
ized and conducted with a view to se-
curing the most economical and effi-
cient service for the benefit of agri-
culture. Their plans of work should be
carefully made and carried out by thor-
oughly trained experts who can givo
the necessary time and energy to the
research work. Other duties should not
be allowed to encroach on the time
set apart for original investigation, and
the compilation of old information
should give way to the acquirement o<
new knowledge.

Kickers Cure Themselves.—Tha
ironclad methods sometimes described
of curing kicking cows, or perhaps of
breaking in two-years-olds to milk-
ing, would r.ot find favor here, and our
Jerseys are about as nervous as any
cows can be, writes G. fa. P. in ltural
New Yorker. Most heifers will step
and often try to kick, but if the milk-
er has tho proper nerve and patience,
they will soon stand quietly. The way
is to hold on to the left hand teat,
when the cow raises her foot, and if
she brings tho foot forward vigorous-
ly, she pushes forward the milker's
wrist, and gives her own teat a vig-
orous pull. She cannot get her foot
for It rises with her
when the pigs are three weeks old,
they will begin to pick them up. Then
there should be a low aril shallow
trough from which they c^n obtain
skim-milk mixed with shorts or mixed
with a small quantity of ground grain.
If the young pigs can be turned out
with their mother on a clover field be-
fore they are weaned they will learn
vo eat It reatliljr, Vhey should be given
every effort, as long as lie holds on,
and she makes it so uncomfortable for
herself, that she usually soon stops It.
Perhaps an old and violent kicker
would bo hard to break, but most of
them quickly learn that an attempt to
kick means a disagreeable pull or
blow on the udder, through the me-
dium of the milker's wrist. If tho cow
can't get her leg forward, she cuinc!
make much of a kJik forward.
