KEEP GOOD BREEDING STOCK
Eoos"-RetaIn Sows for Pro- duction Of Pork.

With live stock selling at higher and higher prices and with feed going up many farmers may be tempted to sell their breeding stock. This will be killing "the goose that laid the golden egg" Keep the breeding stock and raise more stock-it will pay. In one great country, the farmers sold their sows last year when the pigs were weaned. This year pork Is higher in that country. and the farmers have no pigs to sell, nor sows to raise more. It would have paid them well to have kept the sows to supply the nation with pork.
