Three 'litters from each of ten boars in five categories (five'categories of quality ac­ cording to the Huron County Boar Survey — 1965) shall be tested. Pigs are to be ear- notched for identification pur­ poses by a representative of the Ontario Department of Agricul­ ture before the litter is three weeks of age.

When a producer sells Wean- ers, the litter of ear-notched^ pigs shall be sol'd. intact but may go to different feeders.

After all the tost litters have been marketed, the various boars Will be evaluated accord­ ing to the grade of their mar­ ket hog progeny.
