It seams to be very generally supposed that pork is more cheaply and easily produced from hogs of the thick, short Aniericau breeds than from the three English breeds wbich are favored for bacon production. Why such a belief should be so general is difficult to under- stand as repeated tests conduoted at various experiment stations have shown McKay as higli constable for the that hogs of the Yorkshire, Berkshire and Tamworth breeds produce pork as cheaply as those of the Poland China, —Mr. H.

P. forth, wa3 struck and killed by a Grand Trunk train near the:stntion at Stratford. It is believed that he stumbled in front breeds. In the tepinion of Prof. Day of the Ontario Agricultural College, who is foremost among authorities on bacon production, the lusty, growthy pig of the bacon type is the most eaonemicai pork•maker we have, especially when reared, as bacon hogs should be, largely on such foods as roots, soiling crops and dairy offal. There is muck difference of opinion re- garding the cost at which hogs fit for market can be produced, and there is probably as much difference between the cost to one feeder and the cost to an- other as between these opinions. Under general conditions the production costs in the neighborhood of five dollars per hundred pounds on an average. In summer under favorable conclitions the cost may be somewhat lessened, but in wiuter pork can hardly be produced at the figure mentioned. At, in all other lines of production the cost will vary ac- cordite; o cording to the character of the animals fed and the amount of intelligence ex- ercised by the feeder. Taking one year with another the Canadian farmer on good land who un- derstands crop growing and hog raising, can uudoubtedly raise hogs as cheaply as the figures quoted, and pro- bably for less. He will keep only such sows as produce large lusty litters of the right type. He will grow such pasture and soiling crops as clover, alfalfa, rape, vetches, mangels, sugar beets and such coarse grains as yield the greatest numb- er of pounds of hog feed per acre. In other words he will manage his opera- tions in such a way that will return him the greatest return in hogs per acre of laud, and in so doing will learn to re- ) duce the cost of raising hogs of the best 'type to a minimum.
