Ry ]. A. WARREN, United States De-
partment of Agriculture)
Whether the large house for swine
with individual pens is better than the
individual cot is an open question.
perhaps largely matter Of individual
preference. Each has its distinct ad-
vantages which can not be secured in
the other. Many Of the best hog rails
ers are now providing themselves with
both types Of houses. and this seems
to be the most satisfactory method
1t is no more expensive In the long
run, for all the buildings can be kept
In use the year round. In such cases
the large houses are used for farrow-
ing quarters. and as soon as the pigs
are week or two old, or as soon as
the weather permits, the sows and lit
tiers are removed to the individual
cots During the remainder of the
year the large houses are utilized for
sleeping quarters.
The small cot has the advantage of
keeping each SOW from the disturb
ance of the others, and lessons the
danger from contagious and infectious
diseases. The disturbance in a large
house, however, is usually not Sc
rious matter and is often unduly en-
phasized. After the pigs get little
start there is usually more or less
robbing where many are together.
The individual cot lessons this trouble.

A good floor Is the ground with
woven wire stretched on top to pre-
vent the hogs from roofing. Electric
ally welded corncrib wire Is very sat
isfactory. This makes floor which
Is easy on the hogs. almost free from
rats, and. il properly bedded, warm
and dry. 1t is, however, more difficult
to keep free from dust than some 9TH
er floors. Many concrete floors are
used, but they are cold, liable to be
wet, and are hard on the hogs feet
Often almost an entire pig crop and
many sows are lost by taking cold on
concrete floors. Concrete floors are,
however, very satisfactory when COW
cred with plank overlays, or false
floors, which should be raised from
the concrete about an inch by mailing
cleats on the under side, us shown in
the illustration. The wood portion Of
this floor consists of by 4 inch tim
bers laid about one-fourth inch apart
to allow drainage
Board floors are expensive, short
lived, cold If up off the ground, and
make the worst kind of rat harbors.
The writer once visited an old hog
house with wood floor in which the
owner said the rats had gotten over
half the pigs. Several men report
that rats may be kept out by packing
sand or cinders to the top of the joists
before laying the floor, but these ma
terials are often too expensive to be
used for this purpose.
In making the inside partitions, care
perfectly tight at the floor and for
about 10 to IL inches above, so that
young pigs can not crawl through, and
SO sows in the adjoining pens can not
get hold Of them and pull them
through. A SOW will often pull new
" born pig through under partition
and eat it, when. If the pig was in
the pen with her, 1t would be perfectly
safe. Above the first 10 or II inches
it is better to have the partitions open
enough SO the hogs can see out. other
wise at every sound the sows will be
up on the partitions to see what Is
going on.
Pig rails or guardrails should be
placed on the inside of the pen, from
s to 10 inches from the floor, accord
ing to the size of the SOW, and should
stand out 6 or s inches to prevent the
sow from MASKING the pigs against
the wall @
1t will be found convenient to have
the alley gates removable by lifting
out 1t is sometimes helpful, also, to
have parton all Of the partition fences
removable. All partitions should be
80 to So inches high.
Six by feet is generally found to
be very satisfactory size for pens,
but If feeding is to be done inside, the
pens will need to be longer In order
to give room to feed and water with
out getting the bed befouled Very
large sows. such as are sometimes
kept by breeders. may. need more
room, but the producer of pork will
not need a larger pen. Small sows
do not need this much room. and 1t
might be good economy to make half
of the pens 5 feet wide. Five by 8
feet will accommodate a small SOW

Hog doors should be % to 20 inches
wide and 80 to 81 inches high in the
