La the feeding period self feed are used. Incidental ; are not stabled. The and the feed lot is prevailing. winds are broken. The feed used is simply hay mixtures of bo wars but Itenow, maket sive feed. Determination of feeds to be used depends pretty much on the relative costs of the different grains available. All grain fed is rolled, rather than chopped. This means there is no dust and the feed is coarser; ex- perience indicates that it cattses ess digestive troubles th: the case with chopped grain, The cattle are half farm.. There 5 sows have produced a ge of nine pigs a litte The first litter is born anywhere'from the first. of January to the end of March.

There is a thr e-foot alle y down the centre, with pens on both sid- es. There is a track attach to the ceiling above the alley-way and a litter carrier is run in the track. .

Once a month pigs that appear to be pretty well up to weight are run in for weighing. Those that : up to weight are shipped. Those that are nearly e kept in pens in the yard Griunangetee tore the pasture too often. As might be expected, there. is a considerable difference in ages on the pigs in one pastui You would think this would ke some complications with rd to feeding, but the Carlyles had no trouble, They report ut the younger pigs pick more of the alfalfa and brome growing in the pasture, and so reduce the richness of their feed intake. During the winter the pigs arc nf es in bunches of 50 to 75, and kept in pens and pastures the buildings. The small are allowed to pick over al- falfa to get the leaves, As. the pigs grow older alfalfa is run through a hammer-mill and mix- vd with the feed in the. self-feed- In the case of sows the alfalfa meal makes up to 40 to 50 percent of the winter ration, This igs the effect of gro ie stronger and also mend ihe sows can be practically self-ted. This saves labor hours. pig: One valuable labor-saving fvat- ure that could not be duplicated on many farms is the watering system. The barns and pens are below a range of hills, and, as luck would have it, there is a spring higher in the hill pbove Bob Carlyle s place. The boys hol- lowed .out the spring, put vin a cement crib, buried pipes in the hill and ran the water down into a trough in the pasture, out again se through the pig house, into a barrel in the brooder house, out through another pipe into troughs in the cattle and hog feedlots and on down into the river. The w runs.all the, time, summer and winter. Some of us could, per- haps, get a somewhat similar set-up by digging a well on high land above the pastures and sink- ing a tank. Not everyone can lo- cate water on high land, however. With the help of Reod livestock the Carly have built a farm that re nts a type of agriculture that does not deplete their soil, By careful . planning they are able to produce both cattle and hogs with a minimum of labor and ure able to put their products onto the market without too high a cost per animal. We all know that it is the difference between the cost of producing and the sale price that is the margin of profit. They know they can- not alter the sale price much. They do their work on the cost side, West Are: just warm i mL almost complet served by A al iralbelecteinentitn Acknowledgment from ; ddressee is. assured. W. F.
