To Make t'i<> Farm a Success.
One of the many siibje ts to
which tin- Southern Farmers
should give more attention and
should more carefully consider
than they have done in the past,
is that of growing more meat for
market and home use. Xo well
directed place should ever want
fora fat pig to slaughter as the
occasion may demand any time
through the year. l>y selecting
some good strain ol hogs, the Po
land China, for instance, and not
man v of them, and giving them
the pro] er care as they grow, a
large percentage of all the pork
and bacon needed on the farm can
be easily produced, and a lug sav
ing would thus be effected in the
farmer’s earnings by the end of
the year.
A few hogs may be kept on a
grass idot of one acre of land,
and with a little tint-- and trouble
they mav be kept clean and in a
healthy growing condition.
Swi te should be fed regularly
and be constantly supplied with
good water. Sited should be
built to shield them from heat
and cold. Cleanliness should al
ways be given careful attent n.
Feeding to get the best results
out of the hog in pure, sweet
meat, requires much care to see
that the feeding is regularlvdone
and not wastefully, but simply
enough food supplied at each
feeding to keep the pigs grow ing
and in good flesh from start to
finish. It is a good idea to have a
barrel filled with water near the
feeding pen, into which corn in
the ear mav be put to soak and
soften before it is fed. Cooked
potatoes, of either sort, to which
some corn meal may be added,
will, when fed every other day,
be very much relished by grow
ing pigs. Such roots as turnips,
and sweet potatoes will help {be
cause, while not giving much fat.
'They will add to the grow th, and
health of the hog.
i ue lai iirtm ui i in’11 im siau s,
if it is their intention to get out
of the old ruts made in the past,
will have to give more, time and
attention than they have been
doing to other crops than cotton,
if they hope to succeed as farm
ers. The increasing demand for
heel, pork, poultry and eggs, il
supplied to our home markets b\
the hard worked cotton growers
of the tlulf states, would, in the
course of the year, bring more
ready cash into the family than
all the cotton they could pos ably
grow. To do this a larger area
must he planted to corn, oats, al
falfa, cabbage, potatoes of both
sorts, turnips, and rutabagas for
feeding hogs, cattle, poultry, hor
ses and mules. Until such is the
case and until all these things are
done, progress will be very slow.
