THE PRICE OF A SIRE


we'll to remember that the sire is half
of the herd. A SOW will farrow and
raise one or two itters each year, but
the boar gives as much of the start to
those two filters as the SOW does.
Each pig in the entire herd is his pig.
His form, constitution and vigor en-
tiers into the offspring as fully as does
that of the mother.
A good SOW added to the herd is
step in the right direction, but her
good points are shown only in the
pigs she farrows, while the boar i'm
presses his strong points on theswhole
herd to more marked degree than
the SOW can transmit hers to her IL
to 20 pigs In the year.
1t follows then, that the selection
of boar is even more important
than the selection of all the sows of
the herd. A vigorous, strong con-
stitutioned boar will give from two
to four more pigs to the litter than
will result from the use of an inferior
animal. 1t costs about the same Ito
feed the SOW while carrying and suck
ling four pigs as it does to carry her
through with litter of 10, therefore
it pays to raise large filters and large
filters cannot be raised if the sire is
weak and from inbred and run down
stock.
THE pigs from a gooo sire will be
larger and feed out much quicker and
on less feed than those from an in
ferior boar. They will eat more in a
month, but will gain much more in a
month than the ones with an indiffer-
ent constitution. The present de-
mand is for hogs that will dress about
$50 pounds. 1t is much easier to
raise those hogs from large stock and
slaughter at six to eight months old
than to produce them from indiffer-
emily selected stock and feed them
until year old.
Suppose you buy boar pig from
grade litter, good pig "nearly as
good as full blood.' He costs you
three dollars and turns out pretty
we'll. That looks all right; but sup
pose, instead. that you buy register
ed animal. He costs you $15 by the
time you get him home. You can
raise him as cheaply as the other,
and will get more for him when
through with him, even if you kill
him for pork.
The probable results will be about
as follows, supposing you use him on
only two sows:
The higher priced boar will bring
from one to three more thrifty pigs
per litter than the other will. but we
will not consider that fact in this
connection. We will reckon on two
good sows bringing 80 pigs in the
spring and fall litters, or CO. pigs in
the two years the boar is used. This
is conservative enough if the sows are
good grades.
The blooded animal will bring
healthier and bigger pigs of more
even size than can be expected from
the grade, thus reducing the number
of runts. The 60 pigs will average
about 10 pounds more at eight months
old when dressed, even il there are as
many runts in one lot as in the other,

We spend six weeks on each
car. All the steel is made to
formula. We apply to each vi
tai part the most radical tests.
We have for years kept test
cars on the road. They are run
night and day at high speed, up
to 10000 miles. And we require
all important parts to come
through that test with slight evil
dence of wear.
We use Is roller bearings-190
