J. Watford, Clerk J i- ~ ; STOCK ie COMMON SENSE IN HOG LOT d s. Trouble With Many of Utf le That We I Give Our Swine Altogether Too tt Little Attention. [ sv i (By M. KKSLI/T*) The question which breed of swine 1 to select for the economic proie duction of pork Is perhaps of less lm- # portance today than In the past. The leading swine breeders have be- ( 0 sua 10 recognize tne ract that they must shape their favorite breeds to ' meet market demands. As a natural : y result, the type of all the leading ( breeds now conforms to a fixed stand,e , ; ^ ^ ^ I ^ < n! , oj Healthy, Well-Muscled Hog. ^ ,s ard that meets the demands of the c d packing houses. I [g The hog that best meets the de raand of the present time is a well- C muscled hog, that will supply a fair 2t amount of lard, and fat meut well ( )t marbled with lean, and be ready for . market at any desired age. ? ( Practical pig growers, and feeders Jt, of market hogs look for good Quality. . depth, length and width of form, and ' uniformity of type, regardless of the * >f breed, color and characteristic mark- ? (i lngs. i j However, It Is essential that we se- P lect our breeding animals from some P well-estabished breed, for promiscuous mating of swine of various types [e litis a tendency to destroy the types J5 of all the breeds employed In the ! crosses and to throw away the result ie of years of systematic selecting and f jf mating, and perpetuate a certain fixed 1 ^ type In the breed. This point has been illustrated by mating a half Po- j i?uu v^mna ana nair Chester White ? ?ow with & pure-bred Berkshire boar. 1 The pigs resulting from the cross were ? red, spotted, speckled and striped, _ f. showing that the improved type of all / y three used In the cross was lost, and r. with It the improvements In color find , markings.
