The South a Natural
Hog Raising Country


It should be as pleasing to read of the VIC
tories Of the soil as those of the battlehelds.
The south has borne q wonderful part in
the production of food for the furtherance
of the war, and IN no department of farm
activity has it achieved greater success than
in the raising Of more hogs and better hogs.
That this is true is strikingly brought to
mind by a recent article in the Country Gen
tleman by John T. Pickett, entitled "The
South as the Coming Stock Land of Ameri-
ca" Mr. Pickett relates the story of some
northern breeders who were attracted by
the prospects of a southern sale of Duroc
swine. They decided to attend the sale, be-
lieving that southern buyers were unac-
quainted with the merits of the really high
quality animals offered by the southern
breeder and that they, therefore, could easily
"cop off" some valuable purchases.
But it was bad day for Coping" says
Mr. Pickett's article. GAS it turned out,
there was large number of southern plant
ers present who did know quality and were
willing to pay for it, and when the bidding
battle was over and the averages computed
it was found that price history had been
made. Forty-four bred sows averaged S419
apiece, and seventeen soWs bred to Scissors,
grand champion Duroc boar at the 1917
national swine show, averaged 1892 head
Only four Of fOrty-fOur soWs left the south
About all the northern visitors got for their
long ride was a lot Of information about the
south"
Part Of this information is summed up by
Mr. Pickett as follows: "They learned for
instance that the south is q natural swine
country, which can produce pork very cheap
w. because it has the pasture, the feed, and
The right type Of animals
Among the other facts about swine culture
in the south noted by Mr.. Pickett is that
Georgia is raising now more hogs than either
Kansas, Wisconsin or Minnesota and that
in the recent quotas Of pork production in
creases asked Of southern states the result
was as follows: Tennessee, asked for fif-
teen per cent increase, furnished eighteen
per cent; Georgia, asked for five per cent.
gave seven; while Alabama increased twelve
per cent; Arkansas, fifteen per cent; Missis-
sippi, twelve per cent; and South Carolina
six per cent. These increases. too, it was
noted, were mostly in pure-bred animals
If the north has only just discovered that
the south is especially adapted to hog raising
it must be said that the south is also just
waking up to this fact. 1t is, however, wax
ing fast and the years that follow the close
of the war viii undoubtedly see the south S
pre-eminence in the production of hogs firm
ly established.
