After reaching full growth, when not

feeds to keep him full, satisfied, and in
good condition, but that will not put on

the breeding season approaches, the

Care Of the Boar Important
In the Raising Of Hogs

| cestors, so no farmer can afford to use
any but a pure bred sire. The practice
of selecting a boar unusually strong
where the sows are weak and perhaps
weak where they are strong is not to
be recommended, for the pigs most
easily inherit the weak characteristics
of both parents.
Making Bears Feel at Home.
1t is best to allow newly purchased
boar to become accustomed to his new
home before using. Upon arriving, he
should be dipped or washed with a
coal tar dip for destroying lice and
given the same treatment after ten
days. He should be isolated for three
weeks at a safe distance from other
hogs and if found free from disease at
the end of that time he may be quar-
tered near them. Dipping and quaran-
tine is good for all new purchases
brought to the farm and prevents the
Introduction of disease.
