The bacon made iu America has hith
erto been too fat to meet with great fa
vor In the markets of the vtorld. In
Europe Dan *h bacon has first place,
while that of Canada Is taken In pre
ference to that from this country.
This is because of the greater amount
of lean meat in the product of these
countries as compared with ours.
The American swine breeder has
-U*au P*Vmost ot hi* attanUon
producing weight without regard to
Vhat their weight wa* made up of, and
as a consequence American pork is
largely pure fat, and it is not uncommon
to find American side pork that has no
lean 4n it. The favorite breeds in
America have been bred to this weight
Idea Until they are largely fat pro
ducers, and very few of them are good
bacon hog», KTitrhe who desire* to pro
duce first-class bacorvmust choose hit
breed carefully. A few years ago the
Berkshire produced good bacon, but the
rage for great weiglit and the habit of
getting this by feeding heavily on corn
to the exclusion of more nikrogonous
foods, haa made this breed a fat pro
ducer instead of a good bacon breed.
It iv-altogether possible to breed back to
Che old time qualities, but this is a work
of time, aod to meet the present de
mand. other breeds nyist lie looked for.

less corn in their rations, if a hog is
well fed, and by that we mean properly
