Colorado farmers are turning to hog raising as immunity to swine diseases and cheap forage boost profits. Build high well ventilated sheds, adopt warmer stables for better milk and butter, and rearrange farm layouts to reduce friction and save labor. The Agriculturist notes seed beans and peas can be boiled briefly to protect weevils.

Seed distribution scandal reveals wasteful federal program
The Progressive Farmer reports Secretary Morton testified to Congress about seed purchases since 1865 totaling 2.55 million dollars. He described annual law limits, broad distribution to Congress members, and widespread dissatisfaction as most seeds proved old or unsuitable. Bids failed to meet law, with few rare seeds and no trees or shrubs offered.

Diversified farming gains foothold over cotton dominance
The article extols diversification across a farm region where cotton once ruled. It notes home grown supplies meeting demand, higher prices for tobacco grain and orchard products, and a move toward independence from cotton and monopolies. It cites sugar beet’s share of world sugar and suggests beet sugar is already established, not experimental.
Growing and Harvesting Potatoes in Modern Farming
The article argues potatoes can be grown cheaply, with three fourths less labor using a two horse planter. One man and team can plant seven to eight acres daily, outperforming hand planting. It notes depth control and furrow width are improved by mechanized planting.

Planter Digger and Sprinkler Improve Potatoes and Poultry Profits
An 8 to 12 acre daily planting estimate shows the elevated planter digger boosts yield and speed, with deep, even planting to dry seasons. It covers rows, reduces hand labor, and paired with a sprinkler lowers pests and costs. Separate notes discuss carcass form for wool, poultry care, feeding, and profitability of turkeys and geese for farmers, plus lime for poultry houses.
Poultry Yard Feeding for Bright Healthy Hens
Advice on keeping hens productive with proper care. Maintain cleanliness, regular feeding for a defined purpose, and varied yet consistent diets. Encourage market readiness by presenting clean eggs in tidy packages and using careful handling. Also notes a surplus of small potatoes.
Fattening Poultry and the South's Market Potential
James Murdock describes experiments fattening fowl in a warm cellar, feeding regimes, and nerve energy effects. He argues well housed birds fed abundantly fatten better, with higher quality meat and eggs, boosting southern production for northern markets and profits.
