On farms April 1, the United States
Department OF Agriculture estimates.
This q 1927 900 animals more than
ON the same date In 1921 and repre-
sents an Increase Of Ill per cent.
The large corn crop last year and
the unusually large farm stocks Of
corn are given az the explanation Of
the large Increase In breeding sows
this spring. Corn was worth more as
pork than as corn, and hogs were
needed to eat the corn.
The number of hogs Is quickly re-
sponsive to the general economic
situation, the department points out.
In Aprfl 1918, the number Of breeding
sows was 9.5 per cent more than ON
the same date in 1917. due to high hog
prices n q result Of war conditions.
The figures on April. 1920, show de-
cline Of 10 per cent for the year ended
on that date. The reason for this was
that the price Of corn was relatively
too hish to encourage the feeding OF
hogs.
