the cow thnt nlways has a good
appetite, la the one thnt will
yield the best profit.
There mny be occaslonnl bnd

almost Invariably followa bad
management.
A Rood dnlry cow should hare

gest nnd keep in good health.
An exposed or an abused cow
will give less milk nnd thnt milk

With good cows, good food,

wiped out by au Ignorant or cru

The demands of a cow are Im

consults his own convenience

his dnlry herd suffers loss.

AILMENTS OF PIGS.
Treatment of Common Distaste That
Afflict Young Porktrt.
The prime essentials to good results
with pigs nre sunshine, exercise and
feed, says Professor I.. A. Weaver of
the Missouri experiment stntlon One
of the things often giving trouble la
scours In the young pigs, ftcours are
usually caused by one of four things
either by changing the feed of the sow.
in erfeedltiK. dirty pens and troughs or
exposure of either sow or pigs to cold
rain or to cold weather In such a wny
thnt they become chilled.
The thing to watch ospeclnlly Is the
feed. 'hanging from sweet to sour
milk often causes the trouble, ns will
also the feeding of too much, protein
when the atilmnl Is not use, to It. If
the sow Is fed too much her milk flow
Is so stimulated thnt very young pigs
will get more than they can utilize,
thus cniisliig them to scour. Pigs
should nlways be Iu dry, clean quarters
and lie fed In clean troughs They
should not If allowed to run out In
cold rain or allowed to become chilled
In any way. Sows running through
filth and then being suckled by pigs
will often throw pigs off.
There are a good many remedies fot
Ibis trouble The llrst thing to do Is tn
cut down on the sow's feed nnd clean
up her quarters If they need It. A tn
blcapoonful of sulphur in the sow's

and the pigs grow up extremely
even. The mothera are gentle and
eutlly handled, loalng few young.
They are grvut metiers, and their
meat Is not surpaaavd by that of
any breed. While they are of the
bio on tpe, they grow very large
and will fatten out at any age. Th. y

fesl for two duya is reoomtneuded. It
sow ia given a good physic, such at
epsoui salts, good results will follow.
Ken Mod milk is also a good remedy.
Kuril pig may Ihj given a gd physic,
such ns a teuspoouful of cuator otl ot
epsotu suits. Charcoal Is good. There
Is also a coutnglous form of scours
Ballad white ecoure. The cure la to
clean aud disinfect the eua and give
physic.
Thumps often occur lu young plgt
and Is the result of Inck of sunshine
and exercise along with high feeding
The remedy Is. of cojfse. to cut down
the sow's feed and force the pig" to
take exercise out lu ilio sunshine
Thumps also may occur In large plgt
after they are weaned, but when old
pigs have it it is usually caused hy
some affection of the lungs.
Piles may be caused by feeding too
la mi the or too constipating diet. Eut
Ing soft coal, aabee, etc.. may cause
them. Cleanse well with hot water and
soap. Using a wash made by dissolv
ing one part powdered alum In twenty
parte of water or by olllti with oint
ment made up of ichytbol one part,
vuseline ten parte, ia soothing. In bad
cases It may bo necessary to take a
stitch acroaa the anus lu order to keep
parts in place.
