FEEDER PIGS - The most i'm
portant factor in the prOfita BILE
production of feeder pigs is h e
number of pigs sold, according to
George Vapaa, Kent County agent.
He says you must wean five pigs
per litter to pay the costs of keep
ing the SOW. Profit from a litter
of pigs come from weaving more
than five pigs weighing forty lbs,
or more.
Mr.. Vapaa clarifies this state
ment with a few simple statistics.
A II percent profit is possible if
you sell six pigs at $500 each
only one more than is necessary
to pay for the sow's upkeep. But
if you sell seven pigs at $500
each, your margin Of profit goes
to 100 percent.

This ruling outlaws the practice
by few schools of permitting Sc
niOrs without the required num-
ber of credits to sit on the plat
form and receive blank pieces of
paper.
Most high schools eliminated the
practice some years ago, but a few
have retained it.
Seniors without the necessary
credits would sit in cap and gown
with the graduating members of
their class. Their names would be
listed with the graduates, but a
distinction generally would be
made in program footnote.
Such pupils were expected to
complete their requirements in the
summer and receive their official
diplomas at the end of summer
school.
In practice it often did not work
out that way, some educators
claimed Once the nupiI had "prad-
