LENT FACTS ABOUT SWINE MANAGEMENT
By w. A. LINKLATER Washington Experiment Station.

The farmers of the state of Wash
ington do not raise enough hogs to
supply home consumption, and as a
result the larger packing houses of
Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane have
to bring in many train loads of hogs
from the Middle West Prices for
hogs in this state have for some time
averaged 81 per cwt. higher than at
Eastern markets because of the in
sufficient supply Of home-ra1sed hogs.
At the present time there are only
$4,000 hogs in Washington, as
against 8,413,000 owned in Iowa. Iowa
has, therefore, more than forty-five
times as many hogs as Washington,
while the ratio of hogs to the acre
age of arabic land is many times high
er in Iowa. This cannot be due to
non-adaptability of Washington to hog
raising. Clovers and pasture grasses
grow we'll throughout the greater part
of the state and grains are produced
in plenty. Hog cholera, which is such
scourge in the Corn Belt, is very
seldom heard of here. Our climate is
such that expensive hog houses are
unnecessary. These facts, taken to-
gether with the comparatively high
prevailing prices for hogs, indicate
that one of the most profitable
branches of live stock production is
being overlooked by our farmers.
Swine raising has several points in
its favor. The breeding stock can be
bought at small cost; they produce
rapidly and they are ready for mar
ket at an early age. The two most
important factors of success in hog
raising are prolificacy and early ma
turing qualities in the breeding stock.
While some breeds are recognized to
be more prolific than others, this
characteristic is to quite an extent a
family trait, and, hence, brood sows
should be selected from good sized lit
tiers of pigs, most of which have been
raised. 1t is often not practicable to
have pure bred sows, although the
only reason for not doing so is the
original cost Of the breeding stock
The sire should always be pure bred,

ance of grain, say two pounds per cwt.
live weight; but after that date some
additional crop, such as peas or corn,
is needed, since the pastures will then
be too dry to be relished by the hogs.
1t will often be desirable to section off
these forage crops, allowing the hogs
on only part of the field at time.
Under such circumstances, hurdles Of
the pattern shown in Figure will be
found to be very convenient. These
hurdles can be easily and quickly
moved. They may be made either of
four 6-inch boards, or of five 4-inch
boards, with 6-inch space between
the boards. Those made of 4-inch
lumber are lighter and require little
less lumber than the others. Four
teen feet makes very satisfactory
length for these hurdles.
The professor highly recommends
peas and corn Of early maturing varie-
ties. He says: These two crops, peas
and corn, can be produced to advan-
tage on land that is otherwise summer
fallowed in Eastern Washington.

BREEDS OF HOGS.
H. M. Cottrell, Superintendent

H. M. Cottrell, Superintendent Farm
ers' Institutes, Colorado.
What is the best breed of hogs?
We always answer, the breed that
you like best. A good individual, well
bred and from a profitable strain of
any popular breed of hogs will make
money If handled rightly.
The Poland-C China is a nearly per-
feet machine for converting feed into
pork. It is an easy keeper, quick
fattener, and when handled properly
is ready for the market whenever the
price is right at any time after 1t is
five months old. Where the sows have
been properly fed on heterogeneous
feeds and prolific ones only kept for
breeding the Poland-China is as pro-
life as any breed.
The Berkshire Is a prolific breed,
adapted to any conditions favorable for
hog raising. 1t will fatten at almost
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1908-06-01

any age, and by feeding can be devel-
oped either into lard or bacon hog.
1t is an active hog, good grazier
and will take care of itself in the feed
lot with cattle. 1t takes a better
fence to hold the Berkshire than it
does some of the lazier breeds.
The Duroc-Jersey as now bred diff
fers but little from the Poland-China
except that it is red in color and is
more prolific. Records collected from
thousands of sows of each breed by
the U. s. Department of Agriculture
show that the Duroc7Jersey SOW aver
ages two more pigs to the lit
ter than the Poland-China SOW. The
hogs of this breed mature quickly, are
good feeders and prolific.

at narrowing time she may be in good
flesh. If SOW is a good mother, she
will soon lose all her surplus flesh.
The greatest trouble is experienced
when a young SOW is allowed to run
until she is about year old and
get in high flesh before breeding.

pens such as are shown in Figure 2
are recommended. These pens should
be built on runners, or at least so
built that they can be readily trans
ported about on a fiat sled.
Growing pigs will do we'll on clover,
alfalfa, or other good pasture until
July, if they have small daily allow.

and one in September, can be raised.
Late fall and winter filters are seldom
satisfactory, as the losses are usually
heavy because Of the changes in
weather and cold spells. Furthermore,
late fall pigs make poor growth
through the winter. September and
early October pigs get large enough
to thrive during the winter if they
have warm sleeping places and good
feed. Large, draughty hog houses are
much less satisfactory than small, out
of-door pens. Yards fitted with feed

ing platforms and feeding houses, as
shown in Figure 1, give general salts
faction for winter feeding. Pigs that
are to be used for breeding purposes
are the better for having the run of a
field of Swede turnips, rape, or some
similar crop, during the winter, but
pigs that are to be hurried for mar
ket can best be kept up in a close
yard. For summer quarters portable

in order that from him there may
come the probability of securing early
maturing qualities in the young pigs.
1t is of prime Importance to keep
the brood sows healthy and allow them
plenty of exercise. There Is not so
much danger from having them too fat
as is generally supposed. If SOW is

WILL DISCUSS OUR FORESTRY Governor Calls Meeting of Commission. WASHINGTON EXPERT COMING
 -e Will Present Practical Program for Tree Preservation. Saturday Noon Is Date set When Cow ernor wn Be Present, Beins Due in Montgomery To-
 morrow.
WASHINGTON EXPERT COMING

Of unusual interest to timbermen and forestry experts generally will be the regular semi i-annHal meeting of the Alabama Forestry Commission to be held in the office of the Governor Saturday noon, Mainly for this and other engagements Governor Conner will come to Montgomery tonight or tomorrow and will remain through
 Private Secretary. William E. Fort, of the Governor, said last night that he was advised the Governor intends to spend Friday and Saturday at his of ficial desk. It is probable that his coming at this time means an extended stay in Montgomery inasmuch as Mon day there is to be an important meet ing of the building committee of the University Board of Trustees Be- sides. there are scores of other matters of more or less importance which will demand the Governors immediate at tention.
 The Forestry Commission meeting Is expected to blaze the way. for practical forestry preservation in Alabama. Probably all members of the Commits sion will be present, including. besides the Governor, John L. Raul. of Birm- ingham; Hon. John B. Powell. of Mont gomery; Hon. J. A. Wilkinson. of Mont gomery. and John H. Wallace JG, of Montgomery.
 An expert representing the Wash ington Bureau of Forestry Is to be present and urge upon the Commission a practical and ready program for Ala bama's share in the general national scheme of forestry preservation. This expert is said to have posted himself on the conditions in Alabama with reference to forestry and win therefore be doubIy competent to speak of the necessities here.
 There is already a set of laws in the Code regulating the tree growth and destruction in Alabama, laws that were passed st the last session of the Legislature. It is understood to be the object of the Commission to review the provisions of these statutes and make suggestions about the enforcement thereof
 Beginning October 1. the owners of cut-over lands can avail themselves of the exemption clause of the forestry law This opens a way to the land owners to exempt their lands from taxation for a period of ten years if land valued at no more than s5 is set aside for tree culture and allowed to grow the trees undisturbed for that time As to whether the terms will meet the wishes of many of the timber men is not known.
