A Lindsay pork dealer writes to the Post aw follows: I should again like to draw the attention of the farmers to the style of hogs required at the present time, In last Satur- day's (Jan. 20t11) newspaper reports of the Toronto live gg'took market fat bogs are. quoted $4.60 to $5 per hen. dred pounds, with algood demand for long, lean begs at $5 to $5.15 and some extras $5.201 In speaking of long lean !logs we do not mean long thin hogs, or store flogs, but hogs that are well fattened, *Pith lengthy flat sides. In the London price of bacon, lean sell at the highest price are now quot- ed at48s.; stout 44s.4 to 46a.; heavy, 42e. to 44s. You will ask "what do they mean by stout ides?" They etre sides made from Bois that are the right age and weight but which are two fat for that mariret, Consequent» Iy, although the Bidet; are the right weight, they are sold 4t 2s. to 48. per 112 pounds lower than the selling price of the long lean a,ides of the same weight, with the fat on the back not over one and a half inches thick, which really means that the long lean bog weighing 170 to 200 pounds is worth one dollar per hundred more here than the int, short, thick little hoe ac the tattle weight if the products of both are set to London, "the most critical market in the world." Farmers frequently say to tare "you w.pay the; same prise for all kinds of bogs if they are the right 'weights." We do, as I know to my cost, The thick hogs often lose all the money the lean ones make; still, we must rertme her that we have only just cam- m4inced to try and compete with the Dines for the London market, and if we are to make a suece8S of it we 151UIt buy only the lean hogs.
