The fancier who does not feed sue

need not exiect many eggs In winter,
for It's tbe good green stuff that belps
to bring tbe big buneb of eggs In

essential for winter laying.

To sterilize, say, fifteen bushels of
oats mix a half pint of formalin with
fifteen gallons of water.
Spread the oats, thoroughly wet with

that grain Is thoroughly disinfected;

When sprouts are too long tbey are

As hens nro greedy for this food It
must not be fed strong nt first, espe
cially where greens huve not beeu fed
regularly, as tbey are apt to overfeed
uud get hard crop.

Don't use all tbe adjectives In tbe
English vocabulary to sell a fifty cent
tieu. A buyer knows a liar.
Don't tako soiled eggs to market
People judge you by tb goods you
sell.
Don't scald the bead and legs of
poultry. Tbey discolor and spoil ta
appearance of a pretty carcass.

our raising a 'thrifty bunch of hogs,
we bavo a centralized hog bouse. It Is
built In a side bill with southern ex

bas two stories, tho upper story being
nsml for feed, straw, etc. Below arc
'adjustable pens, with a central aisle,
stove and feed cooker. Hero during
I the entire winter we kept the pigs, al
lowing them access to outdoors, but
always having a place of shelter and
warmth. Tbe pigs from tbe first wore
well bedded and thrived well In these
sr.nshlny pens.
Tbe first three weeks tho pigs de
tended largely on tbe sows for feed.
Tben as tbey began to eat from tbe
troughs we made a creep where they
might eat at will. Here we fed them
a thin buttermilk slop and a little shell
ed com. We never gave them more
than they could eat When six weeks
old we weaned tbem. having previously
castrated tbe male pigs. Dy tares
mouths tbe bunch of ofty-Ove pigs were
eating a barrel of slop each day, to
gether with a half bushel of shelled
com.
For the next threo months the pigs
were fed two barrels of slop per day
and Ave ears of corn apiece. The slop
