Feeding Pigs and Hogs When Being
Pasture6. i

1t is always doubtful II 1t pays to-
try to feed swine on pasture alone,
though this is often done. Pigs will
make a growth on pasture. especially
IL 1t contains much clover; but We
doubt II the farmer is getting as
much out of IL as he would be IL
he fed the animals an additional ra-
ton Of a more concentrated feed.
In a state of nature the animal is
compelled to get its living from the
heritage Of the fields and from the
roots in the ground, but In such q
state II never develops enough flesh
and fat to make it a profitable product
for our meat trade. Its growth is
then slow and its development mus
cular. Il becomes wiry. No one
wants to eat meat from a wiry hog.
So we have to swing away from ma
ture, and so feed that the texture of
the flesh of the animal will be tender.
To get this, quick growth is desired
and this can only be obtained by push
ing the development by the feeding
Of rations In addition to those OBJ
tainable by the animal in the woods
and fields.
