L anything is good enough for
hogs, yet there IS no animal on
the farm which requires better
protection from the cold than
the hog; none for which a good

! the best OF protection against
low temperature. but the hog
has almost nothing between his
skin and the weather. One OF
the first requisites for success
with hogs Is shelter where
young pigs can be kept warm
and well supplied with sunshine
and fresh air. A little pig takes :
cold very easily and RECEIVERS
