If only used for ascertaining the weight of animals bought, a weigh- scale may not prove much of an educa- tion, but if. used in weighing animals during the various stages of develop- ment it will be different. It will, if thus used, prove one of the greatest educators that can be found in thei ter of young, pigs to feed, but he has no scale on which to weigh them. The utmost that he can do is to feed them to the betst. of his knowledge. If a good judge 01? live stock he can tell measurably well as to the progress they are making. But he cannot do it accurately. Suppose, however, that he has access to a weigh-scale, and. that he “weighs the young things periodically, he then knows how much gain is made from time to time, and if he; is a careful feeder he may also know the gain. in preportion to the 'food consumed, and, when the food is ] changed he may know to a certainty 9 how the food agrees with the pigs. If C any periods of stagnation or great gain occur, he will know just; when, and possibly why. Knowing the facts I: he will naturally: desme to know. the reasons, and when he reaches this stage he is most assuredly on th highway to successful feeding. ‘ITL _ _- e Oh the fir}. abWW WEIGH-SCALES ON THE FARM capacity 'coulgln Be; who: engages in tin. {or ‘the block- in a seldom found with g mum on the farm. objeirgted, that to we robably be found that nd food assxm‘ilation ore or less deranged hinge which is almost to more aggravated as ' until some change is discerning and skilled AAA A A ‘ “ ' n: ammal will a weigh- more helpful than dur- â€"-DVU :he animal is also be- under the conditions 1-..]-1 3t engage in the DI‘Odeed himself no period of the de- animal will a weigh- 1y as indicated wcflâ€"i will take some time I t is easviii‘y _.f9(_)d than a docile and. gentle OWN“ to ’A mam does not necessarily hate: become gray in acquir‘ng the he sort of dairy experience S me oft best; dairymesm I ha"? e vigorous, alert.
