106 Forty Years' Experience of a Practicai, Hog Man.

 has been properly and permanently immuned by the simul- 

 taneous treatment. 



A large per cent of bran and oats mixed with a small 

 amount of middlings and cornmeal is an excellent feed to 

 use during the reducing period. They must have exercise 

 and if necessary see that they get it by driving daily. This 

 is very important and must not be overlooked.- 



A part of the ration may consist of whole oats scattered 

 freely in a clean place, as the oats themselves are an excel- 

 lent feed, and they will get considerable exercise while 

 eating them. 



I might say right here that with many exhibitors it is a 

 custom, to breed the show sows a month before starting out 

 on the Fair circuit, and if successful in settling them, so 

 much the better, even though the litter comes at an un- 

 favorable time of the year. It simply keeps the animals 

 breeding, and it is that much better for them.
