But if you try to force pîgs 10 eat pasture by cutting. the amount o! supplement the feed carrnes, you wîll lengthen the feeding period and may gel no net saving o! feed."j What about pasture for breed- provides exercise, 'and the bul-1 ky fe2d satisfies the sow's ap-1 petite without providing too1 much energy. The s0w has lessi lendency to become overfat. it is also a good way for the s0W to protect itseif against nutri- tional deficiency," says the 0. A.C. authority. He stresses that where round- worms are a problem, take- care to rotate your land to break the cycle. Ini cases of severe in- festation il might even pay to haul grass to the pigs. The sow will get less exercise but therej is far less possibility of round-. worm infection, 1 Spray Those Weeds Early Spray weeds early! Experi- ence has shown that ta control most weeds (and especially an- nuals, which are generally hea- vy seed producers), chemicals must be used early, and when weeds are actively growing. The reason: Under these conditions, weed plants more readily ab- sorb chemicals and thus are killed faster. Toc> many farmers -put off spraying until the weed has flowered, reports the Field Cnops Branch, Ontario Depart- ment c>! Agriculture. By that time, the harm from weed com- petitîc>n has resulted, and spraying, even if it kilîs the weed, will not help the crop yield. It aiso takes more chem- ical bo control the weeds and o! ten the extra 2,4-D will harm the grain crop. Mustard and most annuals shouid be sprayed aI the 3-to-5 lea! stage, and not ai flowering time.

Ragweed cannot be safely sprayed when the flower stalk' is present, but if sprayed ear- lier, good results are obtained. Sow Thistle and Chicory can be controlled if the crown leaves, at ground level, are treated early a!ter spring growth starts. This is the time tc> des- tmoy many of the winter an- nuals and biennials. For such weeds as Wild Carrot, an early application, when jusi a few leaves are present early in June, will stop growth for Ihal year.

Best Way to Stopping Anemia in Baby Pigs Confusion About TB Popular The comnîonly held belief that Ontario's faliing death rate is a result o! reduced in- cidence o! discase was atack- ed by Dr. C. A. Wicks Supt. o! bhc Toronto Hospital for Tuber- culosis. "The TB death rate is down," Dr. Wicks said, "but that doesn't mean there are fewer cases o! the disease. This interpretation o! the TB death rate can be dangerous. Ib adds to the apa- thy in our population which is already too complacent about luberculosis," he conciuded. "The falling death rate is the resuit o! improved treatment," the doctor stated. "There are patients who had been with us for years. We expected them bt spend the rest o! their lives in sanatorium.

Sounds like a lot o! work when you look back, but in those days that was the only way we could stop baby pîg anemia during cold weather. The job became casier when iron sulfate pastes came along, but il stîli meant that a farmer had bo catch and dose every pig once or twice a week untilj weaning.. This takes time, andj because only about 20 percent o! the iron ini the mouth pre-j paration is absorbed, mightn't always fil the need. Only lîm- ited amounts can be fed through the mouth, otherwise inflama- tion and enteritis might set in. Scientists now have produc- ed an injectable iron-dextran compound w~hich can be injeci- cd mbto the pig's thigh muscle twice, when the pig is 3 days old and again when 3 weeks aid. Since about 90 percent o! the iron in the injection is absorb- ced, it offers the best anemia safeguard yet-with liible time and trouble involved. "Injectable iron - dextran compounds are good,"1 says ex- tension veterinarian Dr. How- ard Neely o! the Ontario Vet- erinary College, "But don't overdose-follow the directions on bhe container!" He add.s: "You should still keep your eye on Young pigs that are slow to creep feed (aren't getting iron through feed) and those show- ing signis o! listlcssness, pale- ness, and sbraig-ht tails. Injec- tions aren't a positive preven- lion, and anemia might appear even in correctly treated ani-J mals. In these cases, it's wise te cail in your veterinanian." The new injectable iran coni- pounds are more expensive than the iron mouth pastes and a farmer should weigh the extra cost of the injections against the time saved and better ane- mÙa omtr"l Ford sales ore way up and Ford Dealers across Canada have declared a Special Hm.s Cnad', e.1Ecooni Vaue-t,.Cuio,,Dividend .-.-.Ihe highesi brade-ins of the 300' Cana SdaNo.1wtth 1h. modem Milea csom year on your present car.
