The Importance of having a good
permanent pasture for hogs can hard
ly be overestlmated. In many hog.
producing localities no other green
forage is used than that furnished by
grass or grass and clover pastures.
The advantage of not having to go to
the expense of frequently preparing
and seeding the land appeals to most
farmers.
Hogs do not relish grasses except
when the leaves are young and ten
