the summer season.
Many hog growers do not appreciate
the value OF meat meal or tankage as
a hog feed There is no cheaper pro

when properly combined with corn IL
will often almost double the value Of
the corn.
The breeder of pure bred hogs is al
ways anxious to grow his pigs out to
good size early in the season. To DO
this they must be supplied with the
proper amount Of protein in their IA
ton. \ slop made Of shorts with "a
little tankage-not TO exceed 10 per

suits in growing out the young pigs
properly. The buyer of breeding stock

that are well grown out and will pass
by the understood pigs.
