HOG RAISING FOR PROFIT
Pork Can Be Produced Very CheapIy
In South Carolina

1t is possible to produce hogs in
South Carolina at cost varying
from to cents per pound, when
they are grown and fattened on a
good pasture and limited amount
of dollar corn. There are twoNver
important essentials to consider in
the production of hogs for profit
First pasture and forage crops; sec
ond, breeding stock.
Pasture and Forage Crops
! The permanent pasture is essen
] tial and should be of good size.
Bermuda and bur clover as a per-
menent pasture cannot be sur
passed. A mixture of one-half bush
ell Italian rye grass, one-half bush
ell of tall meadow oat grass, one
half bushel orchard grass and fiji
teen pounds Mammoth clover will
also produce excellent grazing.
Either of these mixtures will fur.
nish grazing practically twelve
months in the year and are giving
absolute satisfaction in many sec
tions of the state. The following
rotation OF forage crops will go hand
in hand with the above permanent
pastures in the production OF cheap
pork:
Lot 1. Plow and plant in corn
| May 1st and broadcast one bushel
cow peas after last cultivation. Hog
! this down in the fall and plow rem
nants of crop under and put into
winter pasture of oats, rye and hairy
vetch, sowing this mixture about
September 1st.
Lot 2. Plant one-half busbel each
OF early varieties of cowpeas and
soy beans in rows two feet aprat
and cultivate. This lot may be di-
yided with temporary fence so as
to pasture separately. Turn the
hogs in and after eating off follow
in the fall with a crop of rapa.
drilled in rows two feet apart at a
rate OF four pounds of seed per acre
and broadcast about fifteen pounds
of crimson clover These crops
should be put in in September and
Will afford pasturage during the win
ter months.
Lot 3. Plant three pecks of pea
nuts per acre in July drilling them
in twelve inches apart in rows two
and half feet apart and cultivate.
After being hogged down follow
with a winter pasture of oats, rye
and vetch.
by the use OF the above common
forage crops for hogs it is -possi.
pie to furnish pasture every mont,
in the year. The above lots arc
passed on one acre each. July is p
most difficult month in the year in
which to produce good pasture
