The result of the ten years' ex peri- meats has been to prove the Yorkshire- Tamworth cross will SII the bill. Where those breeds liavo been crossed with tho Chester-Whito.the Poland China, or the Ksuex, the get, in most cases, has proved to be of a rather short, blocky type. They have, on the nhole, exhibit- -d a strong tendency to lay on fat rather than develop muscular tissue. The ten years' experiments in feeding indicate that it will not pay to cook feed for swine where economy of pork produc- tion is the sole consideration. There is a gradu.ll increase in the quantity of feed! consumed for every pound of gain in live weight after the average live weight ex- ceeds 100 pounds. The most economical gains are made when the .iwino are able to eat the most feed in proportion to tlioir weight. Fi'ozen wheat may be used as a profit- able feed for swine. Skim milk adds most materially to tho value of a grain ration, and 100 pounds of mixed grains equal about 700 pounds of skim milk. Tlie relative value of skim milk in any ration varies with the amount of feed, the poorest retu ins per pound fed beii'g obtained when the proportion of skim milk to the total fo«d is the greatest. The avefn(>ed dressed weight of swine is about 76.44 per cent, of tho fasied wtiaht. When hard flesh is desired skim milk is a most valuable addition to the grain ration. Feeding mixed meal (barley, pease, and oats,} with milk will generally insure tirm meat. The greatest gains from a given amount of grain have been shown when it is ground, as a part of grain fed whole gets frequently voided before beinn digested. Mixed grams are more eeon- omical t^hsn grains fed pure. In one set uf ezpiriiucots in which ground grain fed soaked, tho data point- ed to a slight loss from soaking meal. While this luuy not be the actual case it is pr<jbable that the tesult from soaking meal may not be so marked as from soak- ing wUole grain. The type of aniinals fed infiueucoa the character of the meat more than the breed. Tho fact of an animal 1-eing a Yorkshire or a Tamworth will not insure a good bacon carcasp ; it must also bo of a rangy typo, and bo fed in a certain way. F^s whose rations are limited mako,generally, more economical gains than pigs that are rushed, and maturity and ripeness of the animal affects the quality of the flesh that water can be freely einployed iu washing them out. Thirty per cent. oreolin solutions should be frequently sprayed over the entire pen. The young pigs and shoats should be dipped once a fortnitrht in a ten per cent, soultion of creoliii in tepid water. This will remove parasites, relieve skin irritation, and cause the animals to thrive much better than they will do without this treatment. Iinprove<l sanitation will lessen the tend- ency to verminous infection, by destroy- ing the ova, which in cold,dainp,uiidrain- ed unhealthy curiiurs of underground buildii_g8 usually abound.
