ISOLATION, Williamsport. Ohio)
Aristotle, who was born In 3s4 B. c.,
wrote Of race Of hogs with undivided
toes or consolidated hoofs. Later Lin.
naeus, the Swedish naturalist, born In
1907. wrote that hogs with undivided
toes were not uncommon about his
native town in Sweden. This hog has
been known to naturalists In differ
ent parts of the world for more than
1000 years. At the present time these
hogs are said to be found In Sweden,
Holland, Scotland, Norway and Tur-
key, and they have been found In diff
ferent parts of the world for cen.

The full blooded mulefoot hogs grow
as large as any of the other breeds
when they have the same care. The
only thing that will keep their size
down Is breeding too young. A great
many new and inexperienced breeders
get a pair of these pigs and breed
them too young, and after they get
started with them inbred them to the
detriment of their whole herd. Pros.

The American Mulefoot Hog Record
association, with headquarters in Co

the buyers of these hogs as we'll as to
assist its members who are trying in
an honorable way to build up this

with their hogs mixing with their
neighbors' hogs, since the mulefoot
is easy to tell from any other breed
on account Of their solid feet For
this reason I advise breeders not to
sell to any of their immediate neigh
bors If possible. This one point Is
worth hundreds of dollars in case of
disputes about hogs when they get
mixed. Since there are so few herds
in the country 1t prevents any one
driving off your hogs II you have this
breed. A great many suppose that
they come from the wild hog, but |
find them very gentle and easy to
handle.
Claims are made by breeders of the
pure bred mulefoot hogs that COM
pared with other breeds they are
harder, have greater vitality, mature
earlier and cost less to make the first
$50 pounds. The sows are gentle, kind
mothers, and are usually very prolific,
raising large filters Of pigs, which,
II turned out, will hustle for their liv-
ing, or will grow and thrive, paying
big returns under good care and at
tenuon. They claim the pigs are
harder and more free from pig dis
eases than pigs Of other breeds, are
great rovers, hustling for themselves
from the time of birth, and will US
ually demand a premium on the mar
ket.
There Is a wonderful demand for
them and this leads some breeders to
breed their gifts too young. One Of
the larger boars Of the breed weighed
$40 pounls, and have several that
would weigh 1000 pounds if properly
fed to put on weight.
