COST OF PORK PRODUCTION
Records Easily Kept viii Show Breeder
II His Profit 10 Fair One,
or the Reverse.

Before 1t is possible to determine
profit or loss, 1t is necessary to know
the cost Of production. Investigations
of farm costs Of pork, made by the
University Of Minnesota, gave the fol-
lowing results for 100 pounds of
salable hog:
Feed. 564 pounds: labor, man, 60
hours; labor, horse, 8 hour; cash ex-
pense, IA cents; general expense. 12.6
cents; interest, sc cent.
The only Items Of cost that are not
accounted for are shelter and equip
ment. For hogs fattened In the fall
and sold in the early winter, this
would be a small item.
It Is simple matter to determine
the cost q pork production by sup
plying local values to the amounts of
feed and labor required. General ex-
pcnse covers general labor not d.
rectly connected with hog feeding.
