Prac- tice has proven the value of the theory involved in the grading prinâ€" ciple. Grading activities have been i tremendous incentive to quality production, with resultant price 'bene- fit to producers. Breeding Troubles Following long winters with deep snow, as this winter promises to be. a great deal of trouble is usually ex- perienced with hairlessness in young pigs, goitre in calves and lambs, and joint ill in foals. It is suggested that these troubles may be traced to a lack of iodine in the thyroid gland of the pregnant female, and- lesses from this cause may be avoided by feeding iodine, in the form of potas- sium iodide. Potassium iodid‘e has a generally stimulating effect. toning up the whole system, and exerts a particu- larly strong influence on the gener- ative organs. Females which are ap- To Hog Producers Producers of hogs in Canada are reminded that the increase in the number of over-finished and over- weight hogs now .‘being marketed is creating a very serious and acute problem in the export bacon and do- mestic pork trade. Farmers are therefore strongly advised! to refrain from overfinishing and to endeavom‘ to market their hogs before reach- ing a weight of 230 pounds at the farm. Vegetable Growers Over 300 vegetable growers are expected to attend\ the annual con- vcntion of the Ontario Vegetable Growers’ Association at the Carls- Rite Hotel in Toronto Tuesday, Jan. 24th, with the annual meeting being held! the following day. President George Reeves of Dixie will preside over the meetings which promise to Ibe among the most important and successful in the history of the asso- ciation. N E =1 EWS AND INFORMATION ALL FOUR ONLY 5mso ‘1‘HE LIBERAL. RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO FOR THE BUSY FARMER After the foal is born, drinking water with the chill taken off is given to the mare. The mate's first feed after foaling is always a warm A brood mare’s ration may be made up of a variety of feeds, how- ever, it is essential that it be nutri- tious and contain a generous supply of protein and minerals. A good grade of mixed hay, oats and bran will supply all the necessary require- ments. A few roots fed daily will also prove beneficial. The amount of hay and grain to be fed daily will depend upon the size of the mare, her condition and the type of work she is doing. Naturally the more she is required to dOâ€"th‘e larg- er the daily grain ration. Young mares that have not completed their growth must be fed quite liberally. Feeding Brood Mares To properly care for brood mares during the winter months, it must be understood that they should be given mild exercise each day but deep snow and the hauling of heavy loads: should 'be avoided. It is particularly important that mares in foal are not allowed to be idle during the winter months, as they usually produce weak foaISâ€"no matter how they may be fed. Skim milk or buttermilk in some form is the ideal protein supplement in hog feeding. These, however, are not always available but because these are not available is no reason why other equally good? forms of pro- tein supplement should not be used. A very fin-e type of pork can be produced through feeding tankage, a byâ€"product of the packing- indus- try. This provides an animal pro- tein supplement ideal for hog feed~ ing, and at the present time this can be obtained essentially at cost. In many parts of Canada, parti- cularly throughout the Prairie Prov- ince-s, there is an abundance of cheap grain feeds which as they stand are unmarketa‘ble, but when fed to live stock quite attractive prices can be realized. Where grains alone are fed the live stock product is seldom satisfactory and to get worthwhile results a protein supplement must be included to balance the ration. Feed a Balanced Ration If there is one thing more than any other the impoi-tance of which is stressed in hog feeding, it is that grains alone are not enough to make good hogs, and: that for the produc- tion of the select bacon type hog it is important that a balanced ration be fed. Fair rtsults may be had by feed- ing good alfalfa leaf dry but the ex- perience at this Station is that the steeped cut hay is better appreciated by the birds on account of its easy digestibility and because it is more palatable. For several years it has been the practice at the Experimental Station at Harrow to chop fine the young alfalfa shoots for the ‘baby chicks and to use cut alfalfa hay as- the sole means of supplying the necessâ€" ary roughage and greens for winter egg production. A good grade of second or third cutting hay is run through a cutting box in about half- inch lengths, steeped for tWenty-four hours by entirely covering with cold water, strained, and fed in shallow tubs. For the best results it is fedI immediately after the early morning grain and again late in the after- noon. Old stalks left should 'be thrown out Where the bird's cannot reach them or they may be the cause of crop trouble. Green Feed for Poultry At all times of the year an abun- dance of green feed is essential to the health of the poultry flock. In- summer it may be provided by free range on the farm, but in Winter it must be supplied by some form of stored feed. Roots, cabbage, sprout- ed‘ oats, and alfalfa hay are com- monly used for winter feeding. Prdb- a!ny alfalfa is the most valuable elea ment in the winter poultry ration, and if the following precaution is taken in feeding it may be used- in unlimited quantity. a thin layer on‘ a clean floor, and mix well. When the salt is dry, place it in a box where the animals have free access to it. For ewes, follow the same method as for cows. parently non-breeders will often be- come pregnant after this drug has been administered for a few months; For cows, dissolve two ounces of potassium iodide in a cup of warm water; sprinkle this solution over 100 pounds of salt spread evenly and in For sows, dissolve one ounce of potassium iodide crystals in one gal- lon of water, and‘ mix one table- spoon per so-w daily in the feed or drinking water. For mares, give each mane a half teaspoonful of po- tassium iodide in the feed grain or water on the first and fifteenth of each month. The marketing course will include‘ an intensive study of Special Needs of Present Day Farmers; What Co-' operation Has Done in Canada and Elsewhere; The Meaning of Co-opera: tion; How a Co-Operative Differs from a Corporation; Extent and Character of Co-op-eration in O‘n-‘ tario; Types of Co-Operatives and Their activities; How to Organize a‘ 'Co-operative; Marketing Legislation :with reference to Existing Schemes; Duties of Officers, etc. Special atâ€"' tention Will be givrn to Marketing Hogs and other Livestock. ' bran mash and the grain ration c0n« tains one-half bran for a week or more after the foal is dropped. By so doing, complications such as an oversupply of milk or indigestion are usually avoidied. When mares are thin at foaling' time, light feeding should only be continuedI for a few days. In such cases, the feed is usually increased gradually in order to ensure a good supply of milk for the foal. Mares that are required to work while nursing their foals will require liberal feeding, if they are to be kept in good flesh and provide a generous supply of milk for the foals. I 505- 189 William H.
