Swine Buildings Are
an Important Factor
6N HE question of buildings for

TN Fl f question of buildings for
| swine is a rather complicated
and also very important one.
Almost every piggery that is built
possesses certain features peculiar to
itself, rendered necessary by the cir
cumstances it is intended to meet.
| The most important features of a
piggery are dryness, ventilation, light,
| freedom from drafts reasonable
warmth and convenience.
Good results cannot be secured in
damp pen. and dripping walls are
a pretty sure indication of impending
disaster. Stone and cement walls are
very cold in winter and chill the air
of the pen. A hollow cement wall is
much less Objectionable than solid
one. but there is little doubt that
wooden walls constructed by setting
two by four scantlings on end and
first boarding inside and out with
rough timber. This is then covered
up with matched lumber If it is
| thought desirable to have loft over
| the pen the ceiling can be made of
poles, placed few inches apart. and
well covered with straw The floors
and foundation may be constructed of
cement concrete, and the foundation
rise about two feet above the surface
of the floor.
Thorough ventilation is a great help
in preserving dryness in the piggery,
a n I'm O L,
a large air space, or. in other words,
air can be provided for by construct
ing shafts in the walls at intervals of
10 or 20 feet. These shafts should not
be more than four or six inches in
size, and should open outside near the
Provision must be made for closing
or partially closing these intakes.
Light, especially sunlight, has a
wonderful influence in promoting
health SO far as possible the win
dows should be on the South side of
the building, because the South side
gets the most sun and is least ex-
posed to cold winds.
While ventilation is necessary,
drafts are extremely injurious and
their prevention should be kept in
view when building the piggery.
Warmth is a good thing, but it
should not be secured at the expense
of ventilation. A somewhat cold pen,
well ventilated, but free from drafts,
is preferable to a warm pen where
the air is damp and foul, and the pigs
will suffer less discomfort in the
former. Very young pigs require
warmer quarters than older ones, and
when a sow farrows in winter special
pains should be taken to secure
warmth and freedom from drafts
