Farm tips for livestock farming and forage crops
Live Stock Livery farm should have a small flock of sheep. Turnips make a good and cheap fall forage for hogs. Ranginess in the young stock is a highly desirable quality. Rape is one of the common annual pasture crops for hogs and sheep. For feeding calves, no ration has been found which will do as well as touk. Sows running through filth and then being suckled will often cause pigs to scour. Calves are always greedy, and for this reason over-feeding should be avoided. Owners of beef-breeding cows should use every possible means to insure a maximum number of calves. The high price of wool and the demand for mutton have caused farmers to look with more favor on sheep.
