Good feeding requires some bulky
food.
Poor shelter costs more than good
shelter.
In butchering a hog simply sever
the jugular veins.
AS bulky food for hogs nothing
beats clover or alfalfa hay.
Every hog feeder should have some
alfalfa hay for winter use.
Warm. dry quarters are what we all
want, hogs, humans or both.
In beginning to feed new corn mix
1t with old corn or some other feed.
When mans horse is suspicious
and distrustful-be little wary your
self.
Give the brood sow good bed and
feed her literally until after she is
bred.
Do not hold the hogs that you in
tend selling this winter so long that
it means that the brood SOW and her
litter will have to go hungry next
