Problem. of Open Market
Claims Shrinkage
WY,I Oa:As: Loss
One •of the most discussed
subjects among farmers today is
hog marketing. A large propor-
tion have declared in favor of
the open market. The old meth-
ods of marketing are undergo
ing changes. !Nevertheless, Sonia
of 'those who have had long ex-
perience in hog' marketing see
certain disadvantages 4n the
open market plan. Shrinkage', is
a sanious disadvantage 'claims a
farmer -shipper : who is in a po-
sition to ;now a good deal about
it, He has delivered !hogs to as-
sembly yards and topacking
houses. (Shrinkage, he said is a
factor that cannot be over-
looked. He said the following
article from The Exeter 'Times -
Advocate was worthy of consid-
eration by every farmer:
There are probablysorne good,
sincere men 'backing 'the plan
of assembly yards for hogs who
have been told -that hogs wile
not shrink to any great extent
However, the , report below
dispels any doubt on the matter,
Most: people will realize that a
few buridrsd' or thousand
strange' hogs milling around a
yard will not get much feed,
even if the attempt is unade to
feed them 'and if they do not gel
water especially in the hot
weather, there will be some
that will never reach the pack-
ing plant.
Our experience 'has 'been that
our hogs are always slaughtered
within hours after leaving the
farm. Much more time ,than this
is bound to elapse when hogs are
placed in 'assembly yards and
especially when they are ship-
ped in the latter part of the
week and we are, perhaps, forc-
ed to hold 'them over :the week
.end, which could mean as much
as four days from farm to pack
ing plant. •
If 'the average time elapsed
was two days, shrinkage on a
200 -pound hog would be close to
15 pounds. Add ,that further loss
which is incurred by tracking
the pigs back and forth across
the country, also injury and
bruising, caused by fighting etc.,
and we have a loss to the farm'
er of at least $5,00 per pig at
present prices. If the shrinkage
puts the hog into a lower 'grade,
the loss is much more. On 'tog
of all bhis, we still have another
middle man to pay in the form
of the selling agency.
In submitting .the . following
figures let rile say it is not the
writer's desire to quarrel with
anyone, but rather to present
the facts as they are.
This report is from the Food
Investigation Board, London.
England, '1936-194.
A review of the work carried
on from 1936 to 1954 at the
Low Temperature iResearch Sta-
tion, 'Cambridge, England, byDr. E. H. Callow and associates,
discloses that a 200 -pound live
weight pig experiences during
f a s t ing (transportation and
-holding in yards) :
"(a) A shrink of 3.2 pounds
carcass weight each 24 'hours;
"((b) A further shrink of 4
pounds carcass weight if given
water 'to drink.
"The first loss (a) is explain-
ed by a breakdown of the mus-
cular and fatty tissue plus an
abnormal loss of water. (.4 per
Sent per 48'hours), from muscu-
lar tissue. Much of this latter
loss is regained during pickling
operations.
"The other loss i(b) by giving
the fasting pig water to drink,
is explained as being due to an
extra loss of salts from the pigs'
muscles ~which in turn further
lowers the muscles' water hpld-
ing capacity.
"In summary, a 200 -pound
pig, watered lout not fed, loses
7.2 pounds :(carcass weight)
'each 24 hours.
"A. further shrink occurs ac-
cordin to the number of _.miles
travelled."

DUBLIN
Dublin High School News
(By IC. Moylan)
The cars left the school on
Sunday night at 7 o'clock for
Mount Carmel where we staged
our third successful perform-
ance of 31. M. C. Pinafore. The
students reported a merry ride
over following the sparks of a
certain car .(we won't say
whose) so a grade 10 student
reported. Two cars 'reported in
the ditch, seen on the way
home, but happy to say they
were not from Dublin.
!Monthly reports for January
showed an improvement in
Grade 12, bbut•alas! not for
poor Grade 9. Please don't mis-
take my meaning of "poor".
Grade 11 preferred to stay in
the centre, with neither out-
standingly high or low averages
and Grade 10 as well.
After the weekend .the "ding -
along" was reported missing off
the bell. Don't worry this could
not stop classes, it was replac-
ed!
eplaced! For another 'week, adieu.
Question of the week: Don,
why are you spending so much
time at the bank?
