ANTIQUITY OF THE HOG

Tho Chinese cain to have bred
and domesticated the hog 1000 years
before the Christian era. The anci'
ent Egyptians knew the hog, and this
animal is depicted on their monu'
ments. The use of the meat of the
hog was prohibited by the Jews, and
It was considered that in hot coun'
tries it produced skin diseases. The
Moslems under Mohammedan law are
also prohibited from using pork. The
hog was unknown in America untii
introduced from Europe by the early
navlgators. In South American for
ests are great droves OF wild hogs,
the descendants of hogs brought over
by the Spaniards.

Care Or The SOW
Al borrowing Time

AS spring approaches those inter.
ested in the hog business will do
well to read carefully the following
advice from Prof. W. l.. Carroll C
the Utah Agricultural College. The
care Of the SOW at narrowing time
is the most important feature Of hog
raising SO far as success or failure
is concerned.
Several days before the sow is
due TO farrow she should be paced
in pen by herself. This pen should
be warm and dry and away from the
other pigs, so that they will not au-
noy the SOW at the time she is far.

The feed of the SOW should be of
high protein laxative nature in or.
der to get her system In good condi.
ton for the strain that is coming on
it, and also to give the deveoping
young sufficient material for their
proper growth. If the ration is of
this character II will not necessitate
any great change from the ration she
is to receive while sucking her
young, which in itself is of consid.
cradle advantage. The feeds most
generally available to the Utah farm.
er are good quality alfalfa hay, and
u grain mixture made up about as
follows: Three parts barley or corn
by weight, and one of bran. The bar
ley should be chopped, though the
corn can be fed unprepared.
When it is evident that the SOW
will farrow within the next 2i to
As hours, her ration should be reduc.
ed to about half its usual quantity.
She should be given some dry bed.

though this should not be given too
freely, otherwise the straw will be
so deep that the young pigs will he
come lost in it, and the SOW Is In
great danger of lying on them.

she is in need OF any help. II the

Of warm water. No solid food should
be given until the following day when

bring her UP to full feed so that the
end of 10 days or 2 weeks she is
consuming about all the alfalfa hay
she will eat, and in addition about
all the grain she will clean up twice

Where alfalfa pasture is available
turn the sow and litter on this, and
with generous supply OF grain, the
cheapest and most rapid gains pos
