HOGS FOR BREEDING.
Points That Indicate Pork Producing

Points That Indicate Pork Producing
Qualities IN Swine.
In selecting breeding swine the first
thing to determine. Of course. is tie
type Of animal to be raised. says a
correspondent Of Rural New Yorker.
This must depend on the demands Of
the market and the relative cost Of
producing the various types. For most
corn belt farmers the production Of the
lard or fat hog type IL undoubtedly to
be preferred to the production Of bacon
hogs. The points which the butcher
demands Of the fat hog are a large
shoulder. large ham and thick lay

mails In the corn belt. therefore. these
points should not be overlooked. The
shoulders should be broad. deep and
smooth. and the hind quarters should
exhibit the same qualities The sides
and back should be evenly covered
with fat, and in marketed animals this
layer should De deep. although breed

The bone should be fse and hard.
Bears may be-indeed. they should be
--coarser. especially about the head.
neck and shoulders. These distinctly
sex characters increase with age. Such,
in brief. are the characters in swine
which the butcher can cash in for
profit.
In addition to these. there are some
things which are of Importance to the
breeder and feeder. although the
butcher cannot realize anything on
them. One of them has been limited
