THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 25TH. l897; HOG RAISING. How to Feed and the Weight at Which to Sell. The subjoined practical paper was read by Geo. Robertson of Lucknow at the annual meeting of the Dominion Grange, held at anonto last week : In hog raising the first thing is to decide which breed you fancy and every man has a fancy of his own, and outside of that he cannot give the same care and attention. We should remember. that the times are changing, and we should be ready to change With them. The market of ten years ago was for heavy pork. To-day it is the very oppcsite, hence the necessity of change, for the market is very stub- born. It matters not how many months or even years you have fed your hog, or how many bushels of grain you have fed him, the market says so much for him, and out of that you cannot move it. All the pleading you can do “'ILL NOT CHANGE THE PUBLIC TASTE to heavy pork at the present. Hence the necessity of breeding a long and deep sided hog that will grow to considerable weight without getting too thick on the back, for a thick~backad hog, no matter what weight he may be. will out far when split down. The best hog I get is bred from a Berk- shire sow and a Yorkshire or Tamworth boar. The Yorkshires come all white and lengthy; the Tamworths come spotted and good feeders. I find they are not so liable to cripple. Feed sows liberally after the young ones are one week old and leave them on the now as long as pos- sible. When they are three weeks old they will commence to eat and should have a place to go in and feed; and. if the sow is not wanted to breed, I would let them wean themselves, which would likely take place at the end of twelve weeks. To succeed as a feeder ONE MUST KNOW HIS ANIMAL individually. and not be known by them- I do not think that anyone can lay down a stated ration that will give satisfaction to all who feed hogs. Pigs rightly fed absorb into their blood the elements of lean. fat and bone in such close associa- tion that it is not deposited in layers of lean and fat. but is evenly distributed- marbled or stresky, as the bacon cuter would call it. In all successful feeding growth does not mean so much a month, but an unbroken daily gain of flesh. Some may say that they have got the large breed and that any ration will do, but such is not the case. The large breeds have been fed and bred for lean meat for years, and any deviation from that Would only be going backwards. I find that shorts, barley and oats in equal parts muted with mangolds in winter and clover in Summer make good feed for growing the frame. and once you get frame enough it takes but a few weeks to fit them for the market. I would feed a few pm; the last few weeks, which would help to give that firmness that is required after being slaughtered. The weight to market them depends on the size of frame. Small frames, 150 lbs.; good lengthy frames, 175 to 2001bs. live weight. and by all means sell thorn alive. ’ l Questions for Farmers. Mr. D. D. McPherson M.P.P. for Glengarry, contributes a most valuable article to the Farmers' Advocate of Feb. 1st. on the question, “How can the ordinary farm be made to pay.” Mr. .\1cPherson gives his own experience on his own farm within the past seven years, and we must say that his statements are remarkable. We would like to have Mr. McPherson come to this town and discuss his methods with a score or more of our leading farmers. He might do more good than a dozez fall showsâ€"especially if a score of farmers had their ambition fired into following Mr. McPherson’s plans. We have space only for the following se- lections: , “I shall strive." says Mr. McPherson, ”to give you a few details of the results of work done on my farm seven years ago. and last year, and how it is done. The nature and kind of soil is light and sandy on the south end. tending to loam, sand and clay towards the north; had been cropped with grain. hay and pasture from 50 to 60 years. It would. seven years ago, pasture twenty head of milk cows. grow 800 to 1.000 bushels of grain and 40 to 50 tons of hay ; the crop value produced would be about $1,000, and the cash sales annually would be about $500 to $600. This would be from 125 acres of cleared arable land. The crop uroducts and value in 1896 were as follows zâ€"Milk cows pastured 7'0; milk produced. from May lot to October Blot. 236,921 pounds ; pork produced (200 pigs fed and pastured on six acres). 24.000 pounds : veal calves sold. 60; cured buy (from 39 acres). 115 tons; corn ensiluge (26 acres). 750 tons; grain barley. 13 acres), 650 bushels (straw. 18 [ODS)."
