RUNTS IN KALI. LITTERS
If the fall pigs are to como thru tho
winter without having a number of
runts among them, now is the timo to
exeroiso oaro in feeding. Little pigs
should grow, not fatten. Fattening a
littlo pig checks his growth und ren
ders him liable to thumps. On this
account, do not feed too oiuqh corn.
Givo a ration that will provide bono
and musolo building material, Such
a ration oan bo mado up of shorts 2
parts and corn 1 part, or skim milk 3
parts and corn 1 part. Whon tho pigs
get to weighing 75 pounds or moro,
this ration oan be mado to consist of
tankage 1 part aud corn 10 parts.
Almost any one of tho small grains
oan be substituted for oorn in tho ra
tion given. Whon small grains aro
used, they should be ground or crush
ed. Let tho pigs have freo access to
good alfalfa hay. There is nothing
that will tako the placo of alfalfa for
growing pige. Nebraska College of

In caso an nntomobilo is used to
suoh nn oitoutthat it would bo im
practicable to romovo tho storago bat
tery duriug zero temperatures, it
will bo sufficiently cared for if kept ful
ly charged. It has been found that
whon a storago battory is completely
discharged it will froezo at 20 de
grees nbovo zero; whon threo fourths
discharged it will freezo at zero; whon
half discharged it will freezo at 20 bo
low zero; and whon a fourth discharg
ed at (10 holow zero,
This shows, thoreforo, that there
will bo no danger of leaving tho bat
tery in tho oar evon daring severely
oold weather providing it is kept com
paratively well oharged, Tho amount
of tho charge oan best bo detected by
testing tho spooiflo gravity of tho cell.
In tho abaenoo of any hydronometer
at homo, it oun uo tested at any ga
rage. It must bo romombered that tho
storago battory will gradually become
disohargod whon standing idle. For
this roason, whon the oar is not being
used for some time, tho motor should
bo run ocoassionally, thus allowing
tho generator to ohurgo tho battory.
Tho battory Bhould bo oharged in this
way at least once in two weeks, Ne
