SEPARATE BOAR FROM SOWS
Practice of Permitting Him to Run
With Herd Is Frowned Upon by
Many Swine Breeders.

The practice of letting the boar rim
with the soWs Is generally frowncd
upon by swine breeders. There are
many reasons why the herd does bet
GER il the boar is kept separate. He
worries the rest of the hogs as well as
himself when he is with the herd. The
waste and possible injury to the boar
by too much breeding, if more than
one SOW comes in heat at the same
time, is useless and can be avoided
by keeping the boar alone and turning
the SOW in to him. This assists In
keeping records. The owner knows
when the sow was bred. Also know.
ing when she Is due to farrdw, he can
be prepared for this event, which may
be the cause of saving one or more
pigs. Small filters as well as weak
pigs are as often the direct results Of
letting the boar run with the sOws as
they are due to poor brood SOW
And to use boar whose breeding
powers have been impaired by unwise
herd management is financial loss
