DUROC BREEDERS MEET

The County Duroc Association met
last Wednesday in Manchester. We
are going to put on SOW and litter
club to promote this breed. Howard
Cook was elected chairman, and Jess
Walker talked to the men. Mr.. Walker
who Is probably one Of the best post
ed men on Duroc hogs in the country,
says that the pure bred hog bust
ness is going to be better, that the
future looks fine and that it Is his
honest opinion there will never be
a better time to get start in some
good Durocs than this winter. But
he emphasizes the good individual
rather than the pedigree. What we
want is the big growthy fellows that
show type Il would rather have"
said Mr. Walker, "a good individual
with cold blooded pedigree than q
poor pig with q hot blooded pedigree.
Some people go altogether on pedigree
and the result is that often times a
high grade or pig with a poorer
pedigree Is a larger and higher scor-
ing hog. What we want is both, q
good individual and good pedigree,
but don't lose sight OF the fact that
we've got to grow them and Gull out
the poorer ones. That's what will
make the hog business and the ones
that will sell"
He also says there is nothing like
club work for, promotion, and is glad
to see that the Breeders are putting
this on The recording Associations
are cutting down on other expense
and donating to this work In prize
money to the county club.
The next meeting Of the Duroc men
is December Both, and Howard Cook
says we want to make it 100 per cent.
An oyster feed is scheduled for that
time. Mr.. 3. L. Moser, secretary Of
the Missouri Valley Duroc Associa-
ton, will be the main speaker.
