Swine are usually regarded as grain eating animals, yet they, too, do better for having some roughage. Mature hogs will maintain themselves on a good rape or clover pasture without sny grain at all. and fattening swine will make greater gain If fed on pasture. '4 MBMHMlKimA riO.

Stock will make greater gains on feeds that they like, even though they contain no. i Idd.d lf lt cnD obtnlned. more nutritive material than tnose that are not so palatable. Closely re lated to palatabllity Is succulence or juclnesa. Cows give a large flow of milk on pasture not so much because of its high feeding value, but because of Its succulence and palatabllity Stock of any kind will not make the best use of their feed lf given notb Ing but dry bay and grain. The most satisfactory means of pro viding succulent and palatable feed during the winter Is by the use of the silo. Silage has a high feeding value and is cheap, since from eight to twelve tons can be raised on an acre, It finds its greatest use as a feed for dairy cows, but also makes a profita ble addition to the ration of nearly all classes of stock. The most important point to consid er In preparing a ration Is the rela tive proportion of the different con stituents. Fats and carbohydrates are interchangeable and can be con sidered together, since they both go to furnish heat and energy or to build up animal fat. Neither of these sub stances, however, can take the place of protein, since neither of them con tains nitrogen. To build up the mus cles, organs and other parts of the body which require this element con siderable protein must be fed. The ordinary feeds found on the farm contain too little protein in proportion to the other substances. To secure the best results a balanced ration that Is, one in which the amount of protein is In the proper proportion to the amounts of fats and carbohy dratesmust be fed. fed exclusively. Mixing oats with corn loea not mnke a balanced ration, since lihe onts have scarcely enough protein to balance their own carbohydrates ind fats. Another factor which must be taken into consideration I the health of the animals. This wtll surely nuffer lf they are compelled to live long on a single kind of feed, especial ly one that Is as low In protein as corn Is. : When grain is high In price the sav ing effected by the purchase of some upplementary feed rich In protein will usually much more than pny the ?ost. In buying feed to balance corn or other grain the chief consideration bould be the amount 'of digestible protelu which lt contains. Ash Is also Important, especially If It Is to be fed with corn, which Is low lu ash. By llvldlng. the price per ton of a feed by the number of pounds of digestible protein In a ton the price per pound jf protein Is easily determined. Thus the comparative cost of protein in the ilfferent byproducts can be figured sut and the one used which will fur nish It in the cheapest form. For hogs there Is probably no better jr cheaper source of protein than tank igc or meat meal. A ration of one part of this to ten parts of corn is an Ideal one for fattening bogs. For trowing pigs the amount of tanknge should be doubled and some sklmmllk MUk Is H. Hirechberi, free. A. Koa, vice Free. C. W. Irfina, Caah.

Another feed that Is invaluable for roung pigs, and calves Is dried blood or blood flour. Nothing else will stop scours so quickly nor do so much to ward starting along an unthrifty pig or calf. A heaping teaspoonful to a feed is enough for a young calf, with proportionate amounts for the pigs. The reason that these packing ..bouse byproducts are especially valuable for young animals is because of the large amount of ash which they contain. The use of such feeds Insures strong bones and healthy, vigorous animals. COTTAGE HOTEL Mrs. J. F. Staiger, Proprietor Special attention to Commercial and College Organizations. Salem, Or.

XXVIII CLOVER PASTURE 18 AH EX CJEI.I.EMT POOD FOR SHEEP. A lack of ash Is the chief fault that can be found with the corn byprod acts, such as germ oil meal and gluten feed.
