Experience has amply shown that potato growing has now become a very specialized f business. ‘ | Closely confined pigs receiving ‘no green feed often Lecome unâ€" thrifty owing to the lack of vitaâ€" mins A and D. These vitamins may | be easily supplied by feeding one |teaspoonful of fish oil per pig per {day. a good sui;plyof high -quw-.']'ls'; tatoes, following the crop season. } With word shortage of foodstuffs and urgent demands for maximum production during the coming seaâ€" son, the importance of planning for this year‘s potato crop should not be overlooked, says R. E. Goodin, Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch Ontario Department of Agriculture. The creep feeding of a fine meal mixture will encourage nursing pigs to eat at an early age with thriftier pigs at weaning and less setback after weaning. POTATOES FILL The provision of essential supâ€" plements for the maintenance of health, thrift and normal growth is neither complicated nor costly. When reasonable amounts of skimâ€" milk or buttermilk, green feed in the form of pasture, well cured alâ€" falfa leaves or alfalfa meal, and common salt are supplied, a large ‘part of the deficiencies of common ‘feeds will be corrected. If skimmilk or buttermilk are not available, tankage fed at the rate of 10 per cent for weanlings, 8 per cent for growing pigs and pregâ€" nant sows, and 5 per cent for finâ€" ‘ishing pifx, or mature dry sows, |\will supply the extra protein and |calctum required. From oneâ€"half fto one pound of common salt in 100 pounds of meal mixture is necessary for pigs of all ages uniâ€" {less mixed minerals or a proteinâ€" mineral supplement is fed. _ i The feeding of extra iodine to sows during pregnancy will preâ€" ! vent hairless or flabby pigs at birth and improve the general health and thrift of both sow and litter. Iodine may be provided by dissolving one ounce of potassium iodide in one gallon of water and feeding one taâ€" blespoonful of the solution per sow per day. _ Litters born and reared inside are likely to become pale, anaemic and unthrifty unless supplied exâ€" tra iron from birth until they are cating solid feeds. Sufficient iron sulphate to cover a dime placed on the tongue of each pig at 3 to 5 days of age and repeated every 7 Cays until 3 or 4 doses have been given will supply all needs for exâ€" tra iron. Another method of proâ€" viding iron to nursing litters conâ€" sists of sugglying fresh earth sods daily that have been sprinkled with‘ with iron sulphate solution the next headache for the Depart ment of Labor‘s National hm- ment Service, reports The â€" cial Post. There are, in fact, indiâ€" cations that it is causing some conâ€" cern at this moment. Manpower regulations no longer empower the Government to direct farmers back to the land and this fact, coupled with the increased need for farm produce to feed Europe, is expected to produce a labor probiem of no mean proporâ€" Tsl higher im wages mpove t er wages, im eâ€" ment in rural living sundam increased mechanization of farm work may be attractive enough to turn a good percentage of the country‘s unemployed into agriâ€" eultural work.
