Estimated refined sugar
production for the SO states

STATE COLLEGE, MISS.
Experiment Station research
foc the Mississippi hog in
dustry includes raising pigs
Oh concrete, wooden Stats and
pastures. A recent annual re-
port by the Animal Husbandry
Department indicates some OF
the difference between the
three methods.
Pigs raised on wooden Stats
grew as fast and utilized their
iced as well as pigs on con-
crete. Feet and legs OF pigs
did not seem to be adversely
affected by the stats. One lot
of pigs on concrete and one
on Stats were allowed 12.7 and
TO square feet per pig. There
was no difference IN rate of
gain or feed efficiency that
could be attributed to the
space allowed each pig. Al
though the Stats were never
washed the pigs stayed rather
clean. Manure was tramped
through the cracks.
Studies also compared the
performance of pigs fed on
concreate with others ted on
pasture. In summer pigs rails
sed on concrete gained an
average of 0.18 ID. per day
faster than those on pasture.
There was no difference in
efficiency of feed utilization.
in the winter pigs on pasture
gained an average of OH ID.
per day faster than those on
concrete.
In the summer study, the
pigs on concrete had continu-
Gus access to a water spray
during midday, and those on
pasture were cooled less eff
fectively. Research men say
this could account for the
more rapid rate of gain on
concrete during the summer
In the winter pigs on pasture
had access to more adequate
housing than those on con-
crete and this extra protection
from the weather could be
responsible for better per-
Torrance on pasture than on
concret in the winter
months.

Food Hints

Freezing Food Idea
If you use quart containers,
you may want to pour the
food into the carton layer at
a time, separating each layer
with double thickness of cello
phare. This makes it easy to
break apart the block while
it is still frozen and shortens
relocating time.
