BEST METHODS AND

Prof. Smith Outlines Ilan for Feeding

Dy Prof. C. L. SMITH,
Agricultural Expert, O.-W. It. & N.
(Written especially for The Bulletin)
A very careful Investigation of
methods practiced and results se
cured by a large number of farmers
who are producing pork at a profit,
Indicate that there Is a wide varia
tion in the measure of profit, and that
many farmers might very materially
Increase tholr measure of profit by
some slight changes'! a their methods.
The following conclusions based upon
the methods end results of tho most
successful are worthy the thought
ful consideration of tho feeder and
breeder.
The largestmeasure of profit la
secured by feeding grain to the young
pipe while on ;HBtur6. AVith pas
ture alono tho growth is too slow
to obtain tho. best results. A ton of
grain fed to pigs on pasture will pro
duce more than doublo the amount
of rout tht-t v ill fed to shoUit in
fall and winter.
Crossbred or (trade rows' as a rile
nn tn-tt'r 'jreVsders than pure breds.
A good breeder and motUor should be
kept' as long as she wllLbroed. ..Card!
should nlwnyij bo exercised to avoid
too ruutjh" fat f Ureedlag' ' stock
should always be kept eoparnte from

Feed all grain dry In shallow and

pigs must eat from the sldo, and eat
slowly.
Bran and shorts, rolled wheat and
rolled barley are tho feeds that se
cure the best results. Ono of the
men who secures tho largest meas
ure of gain at the least cost per
pound feeds the pigs weighing 25 to

ture. Fifty to 75 pounds o of live
weight, one pound of bran and shorts
per day and one-half pound of rolled
wheat, increasing the wheat as the
pie grows, is excellent; when 100
pounds of live weight Is reached add
rolled barley, continuing the Increaao
of one-half pound of grain dally for

Plenty of cool water should be at
