Dr. G. W. Rahnefeld, of the experimental farm at Brandon, Manitoba, says that litter size, rate of gain and type in herds of low efficiency can.....be im- proved quickly by using good parental stock in a crossbreed= ing progihm. More than one cross is neces- sary to make the program suc- cessful,- he points out. In the first cross, litter size is not improved although litter weight at 154 days is about 22 per cent greater than that of the parental stock. Best Results Most improvement results from the use of fu''st cross females as sows. Litters from these are 12 per cent larger and, weight 40 per cent more at 154 days than those of the original parental stock, Dr. Rahnefeld reports. Although the crossbred pigs grow faster, they require nearly the same .amount of feed per pound gain as purebreds. The crossbreds tend to be intermediate between the types of the parental stock, making it important to use good breed- ing stock.
