The narrowing pen should provide
quiet, safe and comfortable place for
the SOW. Light, cleanliness and free
dom from dampness and drafts are es-
sential. A guard rail should be pro-
vided to keep the SOW from crushing
the pigs.
Feeding the SOW so that she is prop
erly nourished and not overfat is the
most important of the herdsman's du-
ties. She should have succulent feeds,
such as pasture or forage in summer,
and in winter bran or other laxative
feeds should be given, so that consti-
patton and fever may be less likely to
develop.
The feed for the sow at narrowing
time should be sloppy and limited in
amount. Nothing but lukewarm water
should be given to the SOW during "a
hours previous to narrowing. This
same rule should be observed after
narrowing. The first "a hours after
narrowing the sow should have no feed
but should be given liberal drink of
warm water If, however, she shows
signs of hunger thin slop of bran
and middlings should be given. The
feeding for the first three or four days
should be light and the time consumed
in getting the SOW on full feed should
be from a week to ten days, depend
ing on the size and thrift of the litter.
There is no place equal to good
pasture for the brood SOW and her lit
ter. Alfalfa, clover, rape, oats, rye,
vetch, peas, or native pasture afford
succulent nutritious feeds which
keep both SOW and pigs in good condi-
ton. Little pigs will learn to eat the
forage with the SOW at about ten
days of age if they have some palat-
able pasture.
Sunlight and clean, dry sleeping
pens aid materially in starting the
pigs off and in securing rapid, econom-
ical growth. Feed the sows we'll and
the little pigs will soon learn to eat
Of their mothers feed. Cause both
the SOW and pigs to take plenty OF
exercise whether or not on forage or
pasture crops.
The dry SOW or bred sow should be
handled as economically as possible,
