CRAZE HOGS DURING TIME
OF HIGH PRICES OF GRAINS

Perhaps the high price of grain
will awaken the farmers to full ap-
probation of the grazing ability of
hoys, says G. w. Hickman, of the ami
NAL industry department in the uni
versity of Idaho news letter. There
never was so great an incentive to
save grain and use green forage IT
is generally understood now that
profitable hog-feeding in summer in
wolves the use of pasture of some
kind, but there is more difference in
hog pastures than many people sup
pose. However a few men realize the
importance of ample growth and ten
der palatable forage in a hog pas
ture, and they profit by the knowledge
Very often the only hog-tight field
on a grain farm is the small grass
pasture near the barn that serves for
all kinds of stock. Horses and sheep
keep the grass too short for cattle
or hogs Instances have probably
come to notice when hogs on such
a pasture last year did not return
market prices for the grain they ate
Other farmers nearby whose hogs ran
in alfalfa, clover and rape figured
that they got much more than market
price for the grain fed, and in some
instances twice as much. This means
that they hogs in good pasture prob
ably made twice as much pork from
each hundred pounds of grain as was
made by the hogs on short grass.
The hog will eat an abundance Of
green forage if given a chance. The
important thing to bear in mind is
that the better the forage the more
the hog will eat of it, and then the
more grain there is left for other pur-
poses. Good succulent pasture crops
like alfalfa, clover or rape often make
4OO-SOO pounds of pork per acre be-
sides what can be accounted for thru
the grain fed.
