The ability to give a large quantity of milkjshould also be one of the most im portant considerations-in selecting a brood sow. In selecting • a gilt for a brood sow be certain that she comes from a mothei^lhat produced, at leas^ eight or nine pig? at a littey, and is by a boar whose mother did the same. A litter of eight or nine pigs uneven in quality, that is four or five good pigs, and the balance small or do- j fective, is not as valuable as a litter of seven of uniformly good quality. The brood sow should npFonly farrow eight or nine pigs, but . when properly han dled should raise seven or eight of .them. Select your gil£s from sows and \t>oars Having motherslhat possess these qtialities. If the young brood sow proves of this sort keep her raising two litters a year as long as she does that kind of,work, but if she is not a good sucker when properly fed, does not j farrow and raise good large litters of ( uniform quality, send her to ‘the pork barrel where she belongs.—The Pro gressive Farmer. -~r- , • l * 1 !
