Orccn Food for Swine.
Pr6f. S 11. Tiiuursox, of tho Nebraska
Agricultural CoIIego, speaks frun expeiicnci
on imrk growing, in the American Agricul
turist far Ociubtr.
Green food., makes thriftier and larger
ios. l'arniers who raise many pigs, and
feeil.'th'ain exclusively mi corn, know that
souio of the sholes willcease lo grow at' an
curly age) begin to lay on fat, and never
reoch the stfce of good) merchantable hogs.
TJiis tendency to fatten prematurely, nt Ihe
expense ol bono growth, is not seen lo any
grewt extent in grass fed hogs. A pig led
oh bulky green food will develop u larger
tmiach than one fcfl on concentrated fuod
ike corn; nnd when y.nn conio lo Tallin
t, this enlarged capacily will enable him lo
eat unci digest more com, and thus fatten
aster than the other, and be a moro profit
able hog to grow for market.
Grafs-fed lings are healthier than Ihote
grainfed. Kverv Inlelliceut breeder knowa
t'10 advantages of feeding green food to sous
about lo fonow. They l.ave less dilTlcultv
with their pigs, aro less liablo to dcstioy
them, will gno more milk, and nursa them
belter. Grass fed bogs aro Irs3 liablo to dls
case. I ho dreaded hog cholera is not much
to be feared where hogs have tho run of u
good clover pasture. Undoubtedly, If ex
posed lo conlogion, Ihcy would tako the
lis.afe, but thev are not likely to develop
it, For example, a fanner had his hogs In
11 small pen, destitute of grasp, with nu wat
er except a muddy pool, which 6oon ws
made us vile as possible by tho li"gs. AlUr
a while the hogs began lodie- iu consider
able numbers, with Symplons resembling
cholera. Tho owner wus alarmed, took
hem out of this pen, turned them on
patch of green ryo nnd gave thorn waler
rom a well. Tho disease was checked and
fie deaths ceased.
now may green food be most chenplv
proyi'ieuv uye is llio crop lest odoplc.l lo
this piirwse, in the region west of tho Mis-
siuri, This should be sown early in the
loll, on well prepared soil, and if the grow
tig season continues late In the fall, bo that.
the rye is likely to joint. It must bo fed
Ibwn closely. Tho best condition for It In
go into winter, is when it covers the ground
with a thick mat of low leaves with bin
illle tendency to shoot, llv.o in this con
dition U fit to turn 011 as soon as growth be
gins in spring. The amount of feed which
two acres of eucli ryo will furnisb, is sur
prisinz. If not fed dqwn loo clew, nnd Ihe
stock be turned oir about the middle of JIa
or the first of June, the rye will still mak
n fair crop. Hugs' are sometimes ! ft on the
ryo until if nils, when they will pull II
down and eat Ihe, heads; but this practice
is not commended. Tljere is n time after
the ryo is a foot high until it Is iu .milk
that hogs do not eat it well. A bcller.ldan
i to linve a field ofcloveror of clover and
timothy or orchard gnus, lecdy for tho pig
whtn l,he rye is too large to bclopger avail
able. When the rye 13 gelling top largo
lie cjovcr is in tho Ust.stale lMun upon
Ui(!(c!over will !, wfH . ytiij abtmt the
middle of June, when, II .the .weather turns
olf lint and dry, it crows quilt, slowly. It
is well to nave a patch of oats sown near
and ready lo tide over this 'time. If mil
needed, it can gruw for the liarve.t. During
t ie hot weather of Julv, August nnd Sep
teniber, ilono of Ihe crops named nhoye
can bo fully relied on, and tin's is especially
rue where they have been fed loo closelv.
Soighum or Ilrown Douira may ba sown
broadcast about tho lastof May and again
the mi Idle of June, to bo used in July
and August. Jixperience shows that S.r
ghiim may bo cate ri off close lo the ground
when a foot to eighteen inchcshlgh.withoul

grow right along. It is alao an' exce'lcnt
plaul lo stand dry weather.
