Exeter SOLICITORS GLADMAN & COCHRANE Exeter Hog production in Canada can be assured of a permanent place in Canadian agriculture because of the excellent advantage to which pigs convert farm grains and dairy by-products to meat. The care and attention given to the brood sows is very impor­ tant in the raising of healthy, vigorous litters. Plenty of exer­ cise, a well balanced ration, pas­ ture in the summer and a supply of good clover hay in the winter constitute good practices to fol­ low in caring for the brood sows. In order to prevent the occur­ rence of anemia in young pigs, it is recommended that a small quantity of an iron supplement be given to the pigs, within the first three days after birth and once a week for the next three weeks. This may be done by placing a quantity of ferrous sulphate equivalent in Volume to two aspirin tablets directly on the tongue of each pig. A creep provided for feeding the young pigs at the age of two to three weeks, will enable them to make greater gains before weaning and help to avoid a set­ back at this time. A satisfactory meal mixture may be prepared by using equal parts by weight of ground h'tilless oats or ground sifted oats and white middlings, adding 4 per cent white fish meal if skim milk is used or 8 per cent If milk is not included. When milk is fed without fish meal a suitable mineral supple­ ment should be included ill the ration at the' rate of 3 pounds per hundred pounds of moal. The feed mixtures for market hogs used by the Advanced Reg­ istry Test Stations for Swine have been found satisfactory at the Dominion Experimental Farm, Nappen, N.S., says J. G. Crowe, Farm Assistant. These consist of a growing ration fed from weaning until the hogs reach an average of 10’0 to 110 pounds live weight and a fatten­ ing . ration fed from this weight to a market live weight of ap­ proximately 200 pounds. The growing ration 'consists of 85 per cent of a basal grain mixture made up of 5 0 pounds barley, 20 pounds wheat and 30 pounds oats and 15 per cent of a protein mineral supplement which consists of 50 pounds tankage, 15 pounds white fish meal, 25 pounds linseed oilmeal, 5 pounds iodized salt and 5 pounds ground limestone, In the fattening ration the basal mix­ ture is increased to 94'per cent and the protein mineral supple­ ment reduced to 6 per cent. In the latter ration the percentage of barley and wheat in the above basal mixture are each increased by 10 per cent and the percent­ age of oats is reduced by 20 per cent. Tn order to meet the vitamin A and D requirements for growth a high quality feeding fish oil is supplied In the grow­ ing period at the rate of one ounce to each four pigs daily. The pigs are fed all the meal they will clean up in 15 to 20 minutes, feeding three times daily during the first feeding period and twice daily during the fattening period. Water may be included with the meal at the rate of two pounds of water to one of meal. Additional fresh water should also be supplied,
