FEEDING YOUR. HOG when prices are high. many pur- ciuse young pigs and attempt to ash in on them and when prices mp they sell all their breeding stock. This is a great mistake and me man who jumps in and out of the hog business in this manner is not going to be able to have pigs gnlnR to market when hog prices are at thcir peak. Every farmer "1 (lie hog business should keep at least two brood sows even when prices are low, if he hopes to make a dollar on pigs. However, there is something the Mg producer can do to lessen his exp:-rises. especially when returns are on a marginal basis, and .that it in try and reduce the feed bill- Many farmers attempt to do this lw buying ready made hog feeds aha adding their own grains to make the feed go further. This ll'SllilS in diluting the ready made. balanced feed to the extent that mg protein, vitamin and mineral levels are drastically reduced ullll the result that pigs will not make normal growth and will take longer to reach market weights. More total feed will be consumed and the hogs become over fat. Other hog producers attempt to cut down on the feed believing ;.'iat this reduces their feed costs. this results in slow growth, the Jig takes longer to reach market and consequently more feed is consumed than if the pig were in full iced. some people believe list their expenses can be cut by llPl'PIy providing the brood. sow iiili ground grain. and then feed he litter with a balanced feed. It nust be remembered that pig be- iini his growth. not the day it is mm, but all ihroughout the gesta- inn period. Consequently, a poor- y led brood sow will have lit- ;crs that are small and stunted ind it takes such pigs far longer to reach market weight and; be- :ause of their stunted gro p. a much greater amount of to iringthem along. Little pigs make 'astt-r gains per pound of feed when they are small and slower Ii they reach market weight. Con- iequently, it becomes more im- onrtant to provide the broad sow with.a balanced ration so she will produce large thrifty litters that till be good doors and reach mar- rei sooner and on less total feed. Most farmers today realize that It pays them to feed balanced feeds. not only to their hogs but to all tlasses of livestock. A balanced Agricultural llaws P. E. I.

Some feel that the mixing would take up too much time and labour and is not worth the trouble. in this case. the far- mer can have the mixing done for him at his nearest feed mill. Even when he has to pay for the mixing, it will still pay him to do so. With the present prices of Hog Concentrate and your own farm grains. plus coast of mixing, it will cost approximately 32.85 to make balanced Hog Grower. Com- pare this with the cost of the Hog Grower you are now buying-and see how much you can save on each 100 pounds of feed. THUMB RULES OF FEEDING For purpose of substitution. the following may be considered as equivalent to one pound of a bal- anced pig meal. Twelva pounds whey: 9 pounds roots; 4 pounds heavy soaked garbage; or 6 pounds of skim or buttermilk. In general feed to dry sows 2 pounds of meal or its equivalent per day for each 100 pounds live weght. Pregnant sows require rations fortified with vitamins and min- erals. A mineral mixture supplying at least calcium. salt. iron and iodine should constitute about 3 percent of the meal ration and a daily allowance of one-half tables- spocnful of a feeding oil to supply vitamins "A" and "D" will be profitable to sows not out on pas- ture. Nursing sows should be fed what they will clean up promptly at three feeds daily or one pound of feed for each pig in the litter. It will range between 10 and 15 pounds of dry meal per day. Boers should receive a daily allowance of meal equal to 2 per cent of their live weight. Feed enough to nfaintaln a satisfactory condition of flashing. MILK FOR. PIGS Questions have frequently been asked about the use of milk with commercially prepared pig start- ers. The impression appears to be held that there is some nutritional reason for avoiding milk when using one of these meal mixtures. Such is not true and either whole or skimmed milk may be used. in- stead of water. The problem is entirely one of cost. Nutritionally. milk will improve most pig meal mixture, but it should not be left In troughs to become sour. This can cause trouble.

I did not expect it on the Island so soon. But here it is with all its strength and weak- ness. It is just one more instance of the way new technlcs are quick- lye made available to all, for good or ill. , if cinemascope could be used only for showing natural scenery and distant places and great works of art and literature, and for the per- formance of fine musical bands and orchestras, what a wonderful in- strument for education and culture it could be! Long ago. I spent some glorious weeks in Florence. Italy, and there it was on the cinemascope screen. at the Prince Edward Theatre. rec- ently, aa vividly as if I were stand- ing there again. I was never in Rome. but the scenes were so clear and detailed that they lit up splendidly all I had heard and read of the famed city. I can vouch for te truth and vlvidness of the New York scenes. Through medium of cinemascope, the symphony orchestra seen in so detailed a manner. as well as heard can be a very rich experi- ence. The effect of the earnest unity of men and instruments, in addition to the music, is powerful and uplifting.

I hasten to say that I thoroug- ly enjoyed the picture. The women were so good to look at. and the clothes were so beautifully fash- ioned and displayed. The story too, while utterly ridiculous, was done with a light touch and was with- out malice. But why cinemascope?
