Raising of hogs in the
towns OF Hortonia and Dale, a few
miles north of Neenah, has suffered a
severe setback this spring because OF
the loss of about one-half OF the lit
tiers of young pigs through causes that
farmers are unable TO explain. All oil
the young pigs in some litters died
before they were three weeks old.
The situation was blamed at first to
some disease that might have taken
hold in the district. but no symptoms
of any kind have developed. II is be
lleved by some breeders that brood
sows obtained too little exercise dur
ing the severe winter, lessening the
vitality OF the young pigs.
