Large Litters.

AhExc hhttCEss
There is q wide difference IN the
bank account of the breeder whose
sows bring and raise him ten or twelve
pigs at a litter and the n whose
sows only average four or five pigs at
q litter. Hence it is materially to the
interest of the pig raiser to discard all
sows that do not bring q good sized
litter and raise them. 1t Is true that
this is not such an important consid-
Grafton with the professional breeder
who raises pigs to sell at fancy prices
to others; because if his sow only
brings four or five pigs they should be
very fine at weaving time and possibly
one or two of the litter command an
extra fancy price as a show pig or
herd header, but for the average
breeder who looks to the pork barrel,
the rock upon which the hog business
is founded, for his dividends, then the
amount of pigs raised is a very i'm
portant item to him.
If the brood SOW be we'll fed while
sucking, a litter of ten should at
weaving time be just as large framed
as a litter of five, though the smaller
litter may average more flesh.
Figuring on ten at a litter and two
filters a year and the pigs at slaugh-
teripg time to be worth say $40 each,
then there would be a difference Of
500 in favor Of the litter Of ten over
the litter of five. And on q herd of
five sows $500.
True, it takes more to rear and fat
ten the larger litter, but not twice rs
much, while the gross value is double.

boar should be buried with all the
honors and turn, like Imperial Caesar

The owner should study each horse
and know his requirements. There is
no excuse for q horse being in poor

The first cause is always neglect or
