Too many farmers follow the prac-

weeks of age. A good brood sow prop
erly fed has a good flow of milk when
the pigs are of this age. There is no
better feed for growing pigs than their
mothers milk, consequently 1t should
be used to the greatest extent pos
sible. When the pigs are Of sucking
age the SOW should be on full feed.
Unless there. is some extraordinary
reason for earlier weaning the pigs
should not be weaned under the age
of ten weeks. and 1t is better to let
them nurse until they are twelve or
fourteen weeks old.
Often serious results follow weaving
at too early an age. An entire change
of feed following weaning may create
serious trouble. If, however, pigs have
access to corn, shorts, middlings or

SELECT PIGS FOR BREEDING
Animals Should Not BE Pushed, but
Kept Growing Nicely to Develop
Bone and Muscle.

Pigs selected for breeding purposes
should be kept growing nicely, but they
must not be pushed, for the whole OBJ
ject of their feeding is to make them
stretch out and develop bone and
muscle In place of fat. They should
be continued on a growing ration. A
little skim milk and shorts make
good ration. A small amount of
ground oats and cracked corn will help
develop and insure normal growth. But
corn should be used sparingly as it is
too fattening for pigs. Remember that
these pigs should also have an abun-
dance of green feeds.
