II i've Stock Industry

r., order to stimulate interest in the
70 stock industry, particularly hog.
;S;,g there will be short articles de.
,tsd to this subject each week. Farm
IS and stockmen, in fact anyone desir-
information along this line, are in
ted to ask questions, which will be
nswered through these columns.
II is a well-esta blished fact that
task well begun is half done.
This applies to hograising, as.any
,ccessful breeder of swine will
estify. Therefore it is of the ut
lost Importance that a farmer who
nticipates entering the hog bust
ess should make good beginning
! selecting a pure-bred boar and
bws that are well-proportioned
BID from prolific family.
A very common mistake among
rmers is too early breeding of
Its. They should not be bred
bfore reaching the age of II or IL
onths. Breeding them younger
liable to cause decrease in the
Re of the litter and the pigs, as
pll as stunt the growth of the
bung SOW.
One of the greatest assets of the
bg-raising industry in this COM
unity is the comparatively recent
scovery that alfalfa can be grown
most anywhere in the San Luis
llsy. This crop is an ideal sum-
er pasture for the sows and pigs
ID is one of the cheapest feeds
at can be supplied. 1t is also of
estimable value when fed as hay
ring the fall and winter months.
Alfalfa is truly named by Prof.
oore of the Wisconsin Agricul-
raj College as the Queen of
Prage Plants" No other forage
mbines so many essentials or is
pre- readily relished by farm AMI
bls as alfalfa.
Clean water is an absolute essen
i to the health of the hog. With
artesian wells this is COMPARE
Jelly easy to have and should be
pplied in abundant quantities
all times.
The weakest point in conjunc-
N with stock raising in the val
is the lack of shelter for the
Pok. A prominent commission
Rn was recently heard to make
statement that we could save
hctlcally one-fourth of our feed
providing sheds for the stock.
Hog-raisers should bear in mind
Ht the hogs are always ready and
xlous to make profits if they are
" given an opportunity. So if
u are losing money be sure that
u are not to blame before find
fault with conditions.
Devote more time and give closer
'entlon to the selection and rails
OF hogs Don't keep more hogs
an you have room for. Better
We one good brood SOW than half
iozen ordinary ones.

ners will profit by the answers.
