"It's possible, too, they went to New York state.

Show a costive condition, develop; enlarged joints, and evidence pain I In rising or moving about. These| symptons are caused by a lack of minerals, an improper ratio of phosphorus to calcium, or a deficiency of vitamin D. The injurious effects of such rations are not immedately apparent. I Sime green feeds are relatively rich in vitamins and minerals and since sunshine, like vitamin D. aids in the assimilation of the minerals. pigs that are mi pasture and! that are exposed to plenty of sunshine seldom suffer from the ahove maladies. In winter, when there is less sunshine, more confinement. and no pasture, the need , of supplying vitamin D through the feed itself is greater. I The vitamin D content of alfalfn , varies and is considerably lower I than that of fish liver oils. However the use of alfalfa in winter rations for pigs affords protection , against erampiness and similar dia-1 orders. In years like the p’e»ent. green, leafy, sun-cured alfalfa or other leguminous hay may be so difficult to obtain or so high in price in relation to concentrate feeds as to discourage its use. if such hay is not used, a satisfactory mixture for feeding with corn or grain can be made up of 45 pounds each of a protein-rich | feed of animal and of plant origin.
