THE DEMAND FOR pIGs
They Command Not Only the High.
est Price, But No other Kind OF
Pork Is wanted.

Among the many radical changes in
farm management during the last quar-.
ter Of q century there are few that have
brought the farmer greater profit than
that Of marketing pigs at six or seven
months old, instead OF keeping them
three times as long. The best market
demand at present is for good, fat pigs,
and they command the highestprice. II
has been demonstrated over and over
again, thatthe cost per poundincreases
with the age OF the pig, and so 1t is in
the line of economy to push the pigs
from the start and sell carly. Ihave no
data to determine exactly whatthe saw
ing is, but I venture the assertion that a
ton of pork con be made from pigs six
to seven months old. for one-third less
money than from mature hogs, says
Waldo F. Brown, in Practical Farmer.
Probably the best reason l can give for
this is that in adding 100 pounds to
the weight of q pig after it reaches 900
pounds, you must furnish food for sup.
port to repair the waste of the 200.
pounds while adding the extra weight.
Again, the gain in the first place is ms
up of growth as well us fat to q much
greater extent than when hogs nenr
maturity are fed. The risk Of loss from
disease Is reduced at least in propor.
ton to the shortest time the hogs are
fed, and I believe even more than this,
for I find 1t easier to keep young grow
ing hogs thrifty than those Of matura
age. There is also a saving in labor, for
every farmer knows that there Is a
large amount of hard work in feeding
logs that must be attended to every
day, and it is much easier TO feed 200
days than 400.
