IDENTIFICATION OF HOGS IN BIG HERDS
(Prepared by the l/ntted States Depart-,
thent of Agriculture.) •
On a farnj wtyere hofes are raised for.
purely market purposes and, where the
number of sotfh Is small there need be
no Identification of ? the stock. The'
feeder, knows hls animals and /even
When mistakes, aremade they are. of
. relatively small importance. Itntywhere
large herds are maintained^or where
purebred stpek is bred, fhere Is neces
sity for some method of Identifying
the Individuals. It enables the careful
breeder to tell the ancestry of any 1
member of the herd, which is a self-
evident advantagedn the selection of-
breeding stock. ' The clerical 'eqd'of
record keeping need not be discussed,
but It is ytyell ty mention a few methods
.used to. identify the animals. Nb Prjic-.
’ ticnl method of branding hogs has been
devised. Sonfe breeders ijse ear tagfc-
marked with different numl)ers, but
■ these tear out Very easily and become
lost. They are also subject to'-the ob
jection that it is impossible to mark
pigs.by tills method at birth. No sys
tem Is free, from .defects, but one of
the, most satisfactory methods-is to
notches can be cut at the time of birth.,
and unless the pig has an ear muti
lated In fighting, they usually remain
permanently. Th$ following is « key
to a simple and effective method of
notching pigs so as to be able to record
their breeding. All pigskin the same lit 1
ter should have the same mark. Keep
a record of the mark ahd the sow’s
identification, and her pigs can then be
selected at any timej

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applicationa as they cannot seach
‘.he diseased portion of the ear. There is
only -one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness,
and that Is - by a. constitutional remedy.
HALL’S CATARRH MEEJICINE acts
through the Blood 1 on the Mucous Surfaces
of the System. Catarrhal' Deafness Is
caused by an Inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube Is Inflamed you have a
tumbling sound or Imperfect hearing, and
when It is entirely closed. Deafness Is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can be re
duced and this tube restored to Its nor-
’mal condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever. Many cases of Deafness - are
caused by Catarrh, which Is an Inflamed
condition of the Mucous Surfaces.
