PASTURE FOR HOGS

In speaking of pasturing hogs the
extension lecturers of the Experi-
ment Station at Pullman say: We
usually find that the man who gets
the best results from pasture is,
l. Raising good hogs.
2. Selecting his crops carefully.
3. Insisting on good stand Of
grass.
4. Furnishing plenty of succulent
juicy pasture throughout the sum.
mer.
5. Feeding some grain to pigs
from birth to market.
Under these conditions the cheap
est pork produced is made on pas
ture. The pasture itself should be
convenient to the permanent yards
or house, and well prepared. A
good small pasture is worth much
more than large one full of weeds.
In Western Washington clover is
probably the best pasture for hogs
and in the eastern part of the state
alfalfa; the alfalfa can not be pas
tured the first year after sowing.
Rye, or rye and vetch make excel
lent spring pasture. Oats and field
peas are good. White clover gives
good results in many places. Field
peas are an excellent crop for finish
ing off the hogs in late summer.
At no time should hogs have the
entire run of large pasture. Con-
fine them within movable or hurdle
fences, giving them access to a part
of a field at time. Such fences are
not expensive. They save much
waste of grass, secure larger growth
of feed from the land and the hogs
make more rapid gains. Instruc-
tions for building them can be had
from any good agricultural journal
or from the Experiment Station.
1t is important that some grain be
fed pigs intended for the market.
1t is usually cheaper to feed
little grain all the time than to
run the pigs alone during the sum-
mer and finish with grain in the
fall. On pasture alone hog gains
very slowly. With but a little grain
in addition he will do we'll. For
satisfactory gains a hog should re-
ceive two pounds of grain daily for
every hundred pounds live weight.
However, if grain costs $50 per ton
it may be more profitable to feed as
little as one pound per day. Have
the best possible pasture. Make
the pig use as much grass as he can
with profit. Feed him as much
grain as the price will permit. The
G inns made on pasture should cost
from ten to twenty per cent less
an under other conditions.
