METHODIST MEETING
Our meeting at the Methodist
Church has been going on for
almost two weeks. We have had
a very good crowd at most all
the services, but not near as
large as we should have had at
some of them. Our afternoon
congregations have been real
small, compared with the num
ber of Christian people we have
in this town.
We have had some to* join the
Church, which we were glad in
deed to receive, and a number
have professed religion, which is
a good proof to us that prayer
has been answered, and that
Christ still stands ready to help
those who are not able to help
themselves.
Let us, who have been in the
Master’s work for some time, do
all in our power to help those
who have just enlisted in that
great cause, and may their faith
grow stronger and the way
brighter each day they live for
Christ.
Rev. Johnston has preached
some good, strong, gospel ser
mons, and many good things
have been said about them. We
are glad that his sermons have
been blessed of God, and used in
causing men, women, boys and
girls to turn from their sins and
accept Christ as their Lord and
Master. May God bless him and
give him many souls for his hire
as he continues to preach His
word.
The meeting will close at our
Sunday night service, and we
would be glad for you to be there.
Come and bring your friends and
let us close with a great service
m honor of our Master who has
FALL LITTERS AND
CAREOFBROODSOW
Feed Sow According to Size of Litter
to Avoid Milk Fever—Skim Milk
and Meat Meal For Pigs.
In order to raise two litters of pigs
a year, the second litter should be far
rowed in August and September, so
that the little pigs can make good
gains before cold weather sets in and
the sows will be in good condition to
breed again In October and Novem
ber.
Special Attention to Feeding.
Special attention should be given
the sow at farrowing time to keep
her system as cool as possible. Where
they do not have access to good pas
ture it is advisable to give them a
slop feed consisting largely of shorts
three or four days before farrowing.
ine nrst few days after farrowing,
the sow should be fed according to
the size of her litter, using extra pre
caution where litter is very small, as
too much feed will cause a feverish
condition of the udder, which la liable
to make the pigs scour or give the
sow milk fever. The feed should not
be mixed up in larger amounts than
can be fed out in one day, so as to
keep it from souring. Sour feed, when
fed to either the sows or pigs, will
cause scours. Shell corn is a good
feed to put in a creep to start the lit
tle pigs to eating while they are still
sucking. # After weaning do not feed
too much corn.
Ration For Growing Pigs.
The following is a good ration for
growing pigs: Corn, 46 per cent;
shorts, rice polish or rice bran, 46
per cent; and meat meal, tankage or
oil meal, 10 per cent. If skim milk
is available it can be fed instead of
the meat meal, etc., feeding two and
one-half pounds of milk for each
pound of grain fed.
After the pigs are from three to five
months old, the corn can be gradually
Increased to 60 or 80 per cent of the
ration, the shorts and tankage being
correspondingly decreased. A good
fall pasture will decrease the cost of,
production, but where pastures are
not handy, small amounts of alfalfa or
clover hay can be fed to advantage.—
