which to produce your future breeding 
males. Some people may say: why dis¬ 
card the cockerels and purchase new ones 
from the same breeder? Others may 
tli ink I want you to spend your money on 
needless stock. Remember that the first 
offspring is only half the blood of the 
original male, and in order to increase 
your flock you must keep going back to 
the original blood lines. 
Raising Ten Pigs Per Litter 
{Continued from page 321f) 
or she will give too much milk and give 
the pigs scours. If the sow gives too 
much milk she is simply given a little 
corn and water. If deficient in milk flow 
she is fed on shorts, bran or similar feed 
which will quickly go into milk making. 
When the pigs are four or five days old 
they are given exercise. If it is too cold 
for them outdoors they are driven up and 
down the alley of the hog house. This 
is absolutely necessary, as the young pigs 
are getting all that they can eat and they 
will get the thumps unless this precaution 
of exercise is taken. 
Creep to Feed Youngsters 
As soon as the pigs are large enough 
to crack corn Mr. Jackson has a creep 
fixed for them where they are fed a little 
corn and a thick slop of bran and shorts. 
By doing this the pigs can be weaned at 
about eight weeks old. Mr. Jackson 
says he weans his pigs this early, as he 
finds it to be better for the sows, and the 
pigs put on more pounds than they will by 
tugging and running after the sows. The 
sows may also be bred for fall farrowing 
by following this system, while otherwise 
they would not breed till much later. 
The young pigs when weaned are fed 
ration of about one-half corn and the 
other half bran and shorts. At about 
three months of age the young boars and 
gilts are separated. In this manner they 
can be kept much quieter and they can 
be fed different rations. The boars are 
crowded along faster so as to be ready 
for the fall sales. The gilts are fed on 
a ration which is to grow bone and mus¬ 
cle, and in this manner they are kept 
from getting too fat, which is often the 
cause of young sows not breeding. At 
breeding time the young sows are flushed 
the same as the older ones. After breed¬ 
ing the younger sows are fed quite a lib¬ 
eral ration. This because they are grow¬ 
ing and developing themselves as well 
as the foetus of the young. 
Uses Pasture and Shade 
The boar pigs are allowed the pasture, 
corn and thick slop of shorts. This is 
to make them big, but at the same time 
not to make them fat enough so as to 
injure their breeding qualities. 
The hogs all have cool shady places 
in which to spend the hot part of the 
summer and fall. The creek bottom is 
turned into a park for the hogs and they 
seem to appreciate it the same as a person 
does a cool place in the hot months of 
summer.
