INFANT-MORTALIT- Y AMONG BABY PIGS Guard Rails. on, Pen Walls Will Save Many Porkers. So high is the infant . mortality among baby pigs that one our of every three farrowed dies, while on some . farms as many as half the pigs are lost, according to Dr. VV. E. Carroll of the University of Illinois. If the 140 pounds of feed required to farrow a pig were visualized as each dead one is disposed of during the farrowing season, the thought of such waste would be so startling to farmers that prompt measures would be taken to reduce It More pigs are mashed by the sow than die from any other single cause. Guard rails on the pen walls will, of course, save many from this fate, but the sows themselves are frequently at fault ' A sow may be deaf or blind or excessively heavy and lazy or even downright careless. Those with any of these defects should be replaced In the interesi of saving pigs. Damp, drafty pens likewise take a heavy toll of pigs during a cold farrowing season. For warding off necrotic enteritis, infecbull nose and other tions and preventing the rather large losses due to round worms there is nothing superior to the swine sanita- tion system which the college and country farm advisers have advocated throughout the state for a number of years. Another important factor in the well being of sucking pigs is the ration of the sow. , A few days before tew each sow is expected to farrow she should be put in her pen in order that she may get acquainted with it before the pigs are born. At this time her ration should be reduced and made more laxative to correspond with her lessened activity. This can he done by substituting wheat bran to for about by measure, of her customary ration. For 12 hours before and 12 hours after farrowing the sow needs no feed. Water should be allowed freely and in cold weather it should be warmed to remove the chill. If the sow gets restless and seems hungry she may be fed. a double handful o ' bran in a thin, warm slop. filth-born- , e Success in controlling coccidiosis depends to a large extent on immediate recognition of the affected chicks, points out J. C. Taylor, associate poulColtry specialist at the New Jersey lege of Agriculture, Rutgers university, ' V , New Brunswick. It is possible for chicks to become Infected with coccidiosis at any time disduring the growing period, but the ease generally makes its appearance when the birds are between four and eight weeks old.

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Increases in the maximum indemnity that may be paid by the federal gov- ernment for grade and cattle condemned because of tuberculosis are announced by the bureau of animal industry. United States Department of Agriculture. The maximum federal share in indemnity payments for grade cattle is increased from $25 to $35, and the amount for purebred cattle has been raised from $50 to $75. The new scale became effective February 19, 1929, through the passage by congress of the agricultural appropriation bill for the fiscal year 1930. The other provisions in connection with .the. payment of federal indemnity for tuberculous cattle are the same as heretofore, namely, that it of shall not be more than the difference between the appraised value of the animal and the salvage value, and that the federal payment shall not exceed the amount to be state, coun-ty- , paid by the or municipality. pure-bre- d one-thir-d f Live Stock Hints :: A good lamb should weigh about ' f pounds at the market.

Mirrors and pictures are vying for places on the walls of our homes today. Everywhere possible mirrors are being placed. One of the most Interesting situations is between the second and third and the third and fourth of the series of three windows that most apartment living rooms possess. The very narrow space between these windows accommodates a Venetian panel mirror very well. Because it is frameless this mirror will seem to have more life and gleam to it than the mirror incased in a frame., Perhaps directly above or below this decoration something will seem to be needed perhaps a candle in a single brhss sconce will do nicely. Black for Sun Parlor Gives Pleasing Contrast Black, is often used in decorating sun parlors, either as a background for the bright splashes of other color, or 'as a contrast here and there. Because the sun porch is so sunny and so colorful, it can stand some black, which would, perhaps, not he possible In an indoor room. Think of such a sun porch on a summer afternoon a big wicker armchair or porch swing with bright cushions, and a near-btable holding magazines and lemonade glasses! On a winter afternoon it is just as enticing. y . SPIRIN Aspirin is the trade mark of Bayer Manufacture of Monoaceticacideater of Salieybcacid . Gravelly Soil Is Most Desirable for Sites Poultry yards and the sites for poultry houses should be selected with a view to dryness and shelter. A sandy, gravelly soil Is most desirable for this purpose, while the lay of the ground should be such as to provide a free natural drainage. It the topography Is of such a nature as to render the latter difficult or impossible, recourse must be had to some .artificial means of securing dryness. Excessive moisture of the environment is always objectionable from the standpoint of poultry production, while furthermore the presence of surface water, which birds are apt to drink, must be regarded as a very serious source of mischief. For this reason, pools and puddles, filled wagon ruts or open drains should never be tolerated In yards used for poultry. to All Intestinal poisons are sapping your energy, stealing: your pep, snaking you ill.

This means stock with the ability to lay more eggs bred into them. In the case of farm flocks this may be brought about by improving the present flock or by the purchase of new foundation stock. The method that appeals to the true poultryman is the former. Starting with what you have, provided it is of a standard breed. It Is. possible to see a marked change In a few years. This may be brought about without the use of the trapnest, although exact records will hasten the process of improvement.
