When tho young pigs are about a fortnight old, warm milk should be given to them. In another week, this may be thickened with some species of farina ; and afterwards, as they gain strength and increase in size, boiled roots and vegetables may be added. As soon as they begin to eat, an open frame or railing should be placed in the sty, under which the little pigs can run, and on the other side of this should be the small. Troughs containing their food; for it never answers* to let them eat out o...f the same trough with the mother, both because the food set before her is generally too strong and stimulating for them, and besides, the chances are they would not get a mouthful. Those intended to be killed for " sucking-pigs" should not be above, four weeks old ; most persons kill them for this purpose on the twenty-first or twenty-second day. The others, excepting those which are kept for the purpose of breeding, should be castrated at the same time. WEANING. The age at which pigs may be weaned with the greatest advantage is when they are about eight or ten weeks old ; many persons, how- ever, wean them as early as six weeks, but then they seldom turn out so well.
