requisites to health. I have this year allowed my sows to have 

 but one litter, all running together until the pigs wean them- 

 selves, feeding ground feed all the time.

GROUND PLAN OF HOG PEN. 



The swinging end, suspended on the posts, forms the end 

 of the pen when hanging perpendicular ; and, on feeding hogs, 

 it is swung in till it strikes the inner side of the trough, and is 

 there held by some simple fastening, such as a pin or latch. 

 After the trough is cleaned, if necessary, and the feed poured 

 in, the end is allowed to come back to its perpendicular position. 

 Then the stock has free access to their feed. This will save 

 much trouble while feeding.
