from taking their toll.

There are several modifications of the above system. If a clean, portable house is placed on a clean pasture and the sow is wasllcd before entering the lot, we have a simplified system of sani- tation.

Pigs raised in confinement are not exposed to internal parasite infection if the floors are cleaned and disinfected periodically. How- ever. unless a thorough cleaning job is done we can expect almost as much trouble from internal parasites on cement floors as we. would encounter in the feed lot. I BROODING

Start with a clean broolier house-It is essential that the broader house be thoroughly clean- ed and disinfected before using, unless it is new. New brooder Ilouscs should have the floors treated with carbolineum. or a good red mite paint.

HINTS 0N MILKING

llaindle heifers carefully when

they are first milked. A cow must like to be milked if there is to be a t'l ' ii. response to milking. Ciiiisequently. special care is nec- essary so that newly freshenod heifers do not come to associate piipleasant sensations with milk- llll. y Avoid the unusual during milk- iiiiz. Such things as strange noises ylllfly attract the cow's attention .and so prevent complete response to milking.

The milker must be a person iiliiniilics not arouse the cow's siisiiicion. Some people. by their gactioiis, create iicivousness in cons and cannot be good mllkers.

Milk those cows first which let lillllill their milk in response to Ill'tlpl:Ilt8iI0l1 for milking. such as starting the milking machine. llianizlng utensils. etc.

Milk rapidly. If milking takes more than seven minutes for most rows, the effectiveness of the hor- mine that is essential to letting down milk will be partly worn out
