Hairless Pigs

Have YOU been troubled with sows
narrowing hairless pigs This trouble is
caused by goiter, an enlarged, lmprop-
erly working thyroid gland situated at
the center and base of the throat This
Gland forms a chemical substance con-
tanning iodine which it circulates thru
the blood stream This iodine compound
is essential to the proper development
of the hair and walls of the hoots.
Have you had trouble along this line or
suspect any of your brood sows of hav-
ing goiter it would be well to try the
following preventative methods.
Furnish iodine in the feed given TO
the brood sows during the CESSATION
period. To every one hundred pounds OF
feed add ten grams of potassium iodIde.
(about one third of an ounce.) Pot
assium iodide is a salt and may be OBJ
tanned at any drug store. About twenty
five or thirty cents worth of iodine
should be sufficient for one SOW during
the entire period of CESSATION. A ration
containg about twenty FIVE per cent of
chopped clover or alfalfa hay is also
recommended. This may be added to
the other feed. ii. Nj Nelson

Suitable Clothing Important.

"Still another factor in the produc,

norance of the people regarding suit
able clothing during the seasons when
the weather suddenly changes, sitting

what is even more common, especially
among women dressing so lightly that
