a better water supply. The hill farmer
does not have the best situation in all
things, but in many instances he has
certain advantages which he does not
appreciate.
1t is an advantage to locate in hog
raising community There are many
small problems in management which
may be learned through actual ex-
perience in ones own community. In
such cases the older breeders have for
long time been in contact with local
conditions, and new man may profit
by their experiences without spend
ing several years acquiring one of his
own. Then, too, if whole community
viii raise a certain grade or breed of
hog, 1t can obtain a reputation for its
product as a community such as an in
dividual meyer could6shope to win.
When the buyers learn that a type or
breed of hog which they desire is to
be obtained in unlimited numbers in a
certain locality, they will naturally
turn there first to buy the animals.
All of which tends TO decrease the diff
ficulties of growing and marketing for
the small breeder.
The question of a market must al
ways be considered, especially the fa-
cilities for reaching it and the type of
hog it demands. Most communities
have been successfully connected with
the large central markets by the rail-
roads, but these will be of little avail
If the roads TO the stations are poor.
Good roads are of inestimable i'm
portance, for, among other things, they
enable the farmer to market his prod
ucts at any and all times, thus taking
advantage of any favorable fluctuation
in the market prices. AS to the type
Of hog the market demands, that must
be determined by local inquiry, but in
order to bring the highest market price
hogs must be well finished and fat.
The greatest demand is for 200 to 800
pounds hogs, and farmers generally
obtain the most profit by marketing
their hogs at weights ranging from
go to 800 pounds.
