HOW RAISED MY PIG

BY Richard Summers
When l received my pig at Kahului,
on July 16, 1919, l had W aims in
mind. My first aim was to make my
pig into a brood SOW and my second
aim was to raise her with as little cost
incurred as possible. There were
several things which influenced my
decision. They are as follows:
1. My father suggested that it
would be a wise thing to make her
into a brood sow. q usually take his
suggestions.)
2. l had little money to spend on
my pig,
8. Our sweet potatoes which were
too old 10 eat would have gone to
waste and been a total loss if they
were not fed to my pig.
4. | had no SKINNED milk to feed
her and did not wish to buy any.
s. Sweet potatoes is a fine food to
develop a brood SOW.

HOW / RAIBED MY PIG

By Marjorie So Ing.
1t was late in. che evening of July
16, 1919, the da when | brought my
pig home, that y got through fixing up
a temporary pace for the pig. This
pig seemed to- urn out an adventurous
one. | felt > bad the next morning
when l four my pig was gone. 1t
ran away & ring that night. Then l
searched ftr it everywhere in the
neighborhoI and could not find it. l
asked a ftw friends 10 help me. We
found it lite in ~ afternoon down
one of til gulch l was so happy
when Re caught it after
C-uoIns the place. After
wards We ut it in a bag and brought
it home ae lin. This time l locked it
up in the lash house.
l asked my brother to build me a
strong pen for my pig. He did not
finish it until nearly a week. Then
l put my pig in there and gave him
a bath with soap and water and a
brush. l washed my pig two times q
week. l brushed it once every day
and it seemed to enjoy the brushing
very much.
The morning after l put my pig in
the new pen l got up very early and
saw my pig running around the house.
| was just in time for it might have
gone down the gulch again. I called
for help and soon got everybody to
help me chase it back to the pen
again. 1t had made it's way out by
poking its nose through the lower
part of the gate and forced it open.
My brother fixed the gate by putting
in another hook at the bottom and
told me t was impossible for the pig
to get out again. 1t never did.
Two times a week l went to pull a
kind of weed with very tender leaves
and stalks. l do not know the nam
of this feed, but my brother told me
to call it pig weed. 1t grows every
where in the pastures.
l boiled this feed with swill and fed
it to the pig two times a day with a
little ORR When our cow got a calf
about the end of August, l gave my
pig all the skim milk We could not
use ourselves, about two quarts a
day. | weighed everything that l fed
to the pig except water which l gave
it freely. l kept a record of all the
feed l gave my pig and also the time
| spent on the work.
There is lots of fun raising a pig. /
enjoy very much watching it grow
bigger and bigger every day. l hope
my pig will win a prize at the Fair.

By Fred H. Krauss, Jr.
Early on Wednesday morning, July

other boy and girl members of the
Maui County Boys and Girls Pig
Club and drew lots for selecting my
pig. My number was Is. 1 selected
a pig weighing AZ pounds, a grade
Berkshire male pig.
l took him home and we soon be-
came good friends. l built him a good
pen and fed him twice every day and
kept fresh water before him all day
n besides gave him G N feed, such
as alfalfa, milk weed and pig weed.
His grain feed consisted OF corn on
the ear, about n pound daily and
four pounds home grown pig meal,
consisting of home grown grain
ground together; the cost Of grain
feed including nubbings of corn was
2 cents a pound. Therefore the pig
ate 10 cents worth of feed a day. l
spent one-half hour a day in caring
for my pig. 1 had him just "a days.
His total weight is nov 106 pounds.
Therefore he gained SO pounds, an
average of 10 lbs. daily.
