CHOOSING BEST
BREED OF HOGS
Whichever One the Farmer De-
cides Upon He Should Develop
! to Highest Standard.

at Present Time Animals Weighing
From 175 to $50 Pounds Command
Highest Prices-Bacon Hog Is
Not Raised Extensively.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
There Is no best breed Of swine.
Some breeds are superior to others in
certain respects and one breed may
be better adapted than another to GER
tain local conditions. The essential
point is that after the farmer has once
decided upon the kind Of hog to raise
he should stick to this decision and
develop the chosen breed to its highest
possible standard. 1t is not feasible
for one individual to raise several diff
-feEeRt, breeds and bring them to per-
fectier. In making his choice, too, the
farmer should be guided by the kind
of breeds already established in his
locality. If he selects one of these
he is not likely to make mistake.
Two Types of Swine.
There are, two distinct types Of
swine, namely, the lard and the bacon
types. Swine Of the lard type far out
number those of the bacon type in the
United States. The lard type is pre-
'ferred by the people of this country,
consequently the majority of feeders
produce rapid-fattening, heavy
;fleshed lard type. The bacon type is
not raised extensively in the United
States. The production Of choice ba-
con is more general in those sections
