We cannot expect good meftt tin bulk come in the spring. The youns- 1 less clean food is used. Some farmers. sters are fed anything we can get bold of on the farm. They are sometimes given small quantities of dry corn, with a little bran or middlings mixed. I like to feed ground oats with some corn men 1 made Into a thin slop, as I think thla very desirable for young pigs. I usually supplement It with a little shelled corn 8t night Hummer pigs always have access to the pasture. I seldom change a sow's feed, except to cut It down a little a few days before and after farrowing. With my sows seven pigs Is a fair average litter. I lose very few and frequently raise a full litter. In my experience I have got the best results by putting my pigs upon the market when they are from three to five months old. The usual price for breed ing pigs of this age Is $10 each. The market price averages about 5 cents per pound. I think farmers could breed more pigs to good advantage. My swine have an open run for the winter, hut I provide them with plenty of shelter. I find a small V shaped bouse set In a well protected spot. In which are placed plenty of straw, leaves and other litter, makes a very desira ble nesting place for the animals. This might not do Is the more northern states where the winters are severe, but with us It serves the purpose, and the animals do well. A farmer should select the breed he likes best, but should take care that he gets the best stock In the market for the money. I purchase the best Individuals I can get hold of so as to build up my herd along certain lines I have in mind. I believe In feeding swine all they will eat np clean from the time they are six weeks old until they are marketed. I try to raise all my feed on my farm. I pay special attention to the sanitary condi - tions of our house and bedding places. I provhle plenty of water and shade in the summer and comfortable quarters for my animals In the winter. With care in selection, proper feeding and personal supervision I consider these animals among the best money makers on my farm. CoitTenlent Hoar Chote.

My experience of the early castrat ing of colts extends over forty-one years, and I will say that the younge the colt the better It Is, writes D. E. Weinberg In the breeder's Gazette. I have operated on them from three days old to three months old, and I can show just as fine horses as any one can show. But remember there are exceptions to all rules. Stock - growers most assuredly know that the younger calves, lambs and pigs are trimmed the sooner and nicer they de velop. This being the fact, why should It be unreasonable to attend to the colt at least before twelve weeks of age? What I say In regard to my own ex perience I can say of many other cas trators, for I have done nothing but treat all kiuds of stock for thirty-three years. Feeding T.amba Affer Wean 1 oar. The time for weaning lambs depends upon how much milk they are receiv ing. When they are four months old, however, they may easily be weaned with advantage. If they have been fed grain previous to this their growth will not bo checked. After weaning the lambs should be gradually made to rely on oats. As the principal grain ration, feed half a pound of oats dally.. If on good aftermath clover and blue grass pasture a smaller quantity wHl bo required. Always remember that weaning lambs should havo the very best pasture obtainable. ' i-Li LIS FEEDING SWINE. (lea Hqalrd to Pr4a titutd Meat.

Wheu hogs are fed lu thla way they do not receive the fnll benefit of the feed, for a portion of It la wasted.

Any old tldug that 110 other animal will look at Is not good enough for hog no doubt, congratulate themselves that they have till the corn their hog will consume and that there Is no better feed. They will atart the hogs exclu sively on corn at the commencement of the fattening period, using no care not to give them tw much of It, and finally the result is that the appetite and di gestion of the hogs are Injured, and they are given a backset that they will not readily overcome. Corn should be fed In small quantities at first, gradu ally Increasing the amount as the hogs' stomachs become stronger until they are on full feed, says a writer In Farm Press. Better results are produced by feeding corn In relatively small quanti ties In conjunction with mill foods, alfalfa and clover hay and such foods as turnips, artichokes, etc. CUTTING ICE. laexpenalve' Homemade Plow With Gauge Attachment.

They eat the grass and seem to relish It though It Is dead and brown. At this season we give tho specked ap ples at sorting time to the hens. We find that a place for hens to scratch pays for Itself In one winter in the fowls' health and in eggs.'

The litter that accumulates where the hay is thrown on the barn floor makes the best kind of scratching material. The hens search out the fine seeds and eat every clover leaf. We are learning the value of bran, ns a hen food. In their soft food for breakfast we use bran as a basis. It gives bulk. It is oue of the desirable foods that are not too expensive with eggs at present prices. An experienced poultry breeder says bran Is a god- regulator of the system, and I kno'c, if other conditions are right, the fuel ing of bran largely will lucrcase t!ie egg yield. II. M. W.
