EASY WAY OF MARKING PIGS

Pigs should be marked at an carly
date and before there Is any danger Of
them being confused with other litters.
Perhaps the most successful and the
most permanent method Is by means Of
notches in different parts Of the ear.
A system which has given great salts
faction is as follows:
Ono notch In the lower or outer edge
Of the right ear means one; two
notches in the lower or outer edge of
the right car means two. one notch
in tho lower or outer edge of the left
ear means three; ono notch in the
upper or inner edge of the right ear
means ten. ono notch In the upper or
inner edge OF tho left ear means thirty.
With these as basis the Iilters can
be marked up to ninety-nine. For cx-
ample. each pig OF the first litter Is
