" The number of hogs that can be pastured per acre, it must be remembered, depends 

 on the fertility of the soil, on the season, and on the size of the hogs. This estimate is 

 based on the same figures as were secured on alfalfa pasture ; i. e., hogs that weigh from 

 50 to 12.5 pounds per head. 



''Rape will furnish fall pasture as indicated if it is not pastured too close in the spring. 

 It will branch out from the roots and stem in the fall. It may also be planted in August 

 for fall pasture. 



''Artichokes are available when not frozen. They may be left in the ground until it 

 thaws in the spring, when the hogs will finish harvesting" them. 



<* Wheat should not be pastured after the 1st of April if a crop of grain is desired.
