SWINE RAISING AS A BUSINESS
Breeder Should Not Mrke It Second
ary to Farming Operation
Why Many Men Fail.
In a recent discussion of the points
to be observed by a hog breeder, V. F.
McFadden, secretary of the American
l'oland China Record uhsoi lat ion, said :
The hog man should make hug rais
ing his lriiiciiul business; he should
Hot make it secondary to his farming
operations, and It should he the cen
tral Idea around which revolve till bis
active business operations. A hug
man should be a hog man ;it5 days In
the year. He criticized those breeders
whose enthusiasm was shortlived, urg
ing them to take pride lu their busi
ness and in every little detail con
cerning It. He thought that crates
should be made light, good and at
tractive and that stationery should be
neat, to the point and indicative of
the methods of doing business Ha
thought good stationery added dignity
to the business aud made a good im
pression. Concerning what to ralee, he said
that a good many hog men failed be
cause they did not offer for sale the
kind of stock the buyers were wanting
to buy. He appreciated that It was au
art for any man to recognize what
kind of a hog would be In der-xnd and
be prepared to supply It He urged
breeders to keep clear of fads and hog
bubbles. He believed that salesman
ship, says the Oklahoma Farmer, wa
Important and that It was only possi
ble to be a good salesman by having a
thorough knowledge of Individuality of
animals as well as a knowledge of
good business practices.
Talking about feeding aud care, he
said that a hog should be well bred
and that improvement was the result
of good care and good feed. There
waa no success without these and good
judgment in selection.

hornless; the face and legs are of a
gray-brown color. The best rams,
when fat, often weigh from 176 to 200
pounds, the ewes from 123 to 150. The
body is rather blocky. This breed
furnisbes a fleece of good quality,
weighing from six to seven pounds.
The wool Is rather short, but of
medium fine texture. The mutton is
of excellent quality. The Southdown
ewes often produce two lambs at a
birth, and sometimes three. They are
a very valuable breed for early lambs
as the lambs grow rapidly. The
Southdown is an English breed, taking
ltf name from the Southdowns, the
broken and hilly lands of Sussex and
neighboring counties of England.

Most Reliable Crops Are Rape, Rye,
Wheat and Barley Sow on Spe
cially Prepared Land.
According to the department of ag
riculture, to produce pork profitably
bogs muBt feed and graze continuously
on pastures and crops particularly
planted for them. Very seldom is the
growing of hogs for slaughter a
source of profit, unless proper grazing
and feeding methods are followed.
In the spring, summer and fall there
are many crops for pasturing bogs,
but during the winter the crops to se
lect from are limited. On almost ev
ery farm th3 production and keeping
of hogs In winter is expensive, and
generally it is not profitable for the
reason that large quantities of corn
are fed without products of green
crops. More winter grazing Is needed
for which many crops are adapted.
The mo6t reliable are rape, rye,
wheat and barley. For grazing pur
poses these pasturing crops for hogs
should be sown on specially well
drained and prepared land, that is
either rich or has received a libera)
application of manure. Good winter
pasturage Is not obtained except on the
best-drained lands.
Profitable Side Line.
One factor about the sheep business
la worthy of special emphasis. This
industry is one of the most profitable
side lines that can fit the operations of
the general farm. Sheep require little
attention during the sowing, baying,
cultivating or harvesting seasons
when the time of the farmer is needed
elsewhere. It is during periods when
the farmer has plenty of leisure that
the necessity arises for according the
flock additional care and attention.
(By I IK'K. V. II. ri!W, Inwa AfTli ul
turnl t'ollnptp.)
Huttermllk when free from water,
used for washing the butter, nukes
excellent fed for hogs. The great
trouble as we find it coming from
the creameries Is that it la hard to
determine how much excess water Is
contained In It. At the present price
fur feeds, 1 think you will be safe In
paying 20 cents per 100 pounds for
buttermilk that Is fite from excess of
water.
For sows that are nursing young
pigs, it should be fed In very small
quantities, If at all. and I would sug
gest diluting It. Hotter results would
he had if the buttermilk is not put
Into the ration until the pigs are at
least four or five weeks old. It la
particularly good for growing pigs, as
well as fattening hogs. The show far
rows at this college are always fed
and finished on corn and buttermilk. 1
A good ration for sows that are
... . i
nursing pigs or an age wnen no
trouble will be had from scouring,
would be as follows: Corn meal, one
part; bran, two parte, with buttermilk,
three to four pounds for each pound
of grain mixture.
Corn and buttermilk afford a very
good ration for fattening hogs. For
growing pigs It might be of advan
tage to make a slop of shorts and
buttermilk, and feed corn on the ear
besides.
