Expert Gives; Advice Qn Raising Pigs If farmers considered every pig above the weaning average of eight a special 'prize, and it is. possibly the old sow and her litter would get more attention. But to win a prize one must know the game and play it fair* says E. B. Fraser, Animal Hus­ bandry Division, Central Ex­ perimental Farm, Ottawa. Don’t cheat on the feeding and care of the brood sow and litter if you expect to win. Actually, proper care of the litter involves at­ tention to many details—most of them small, but all contribut­ ing to greater profit. Th© farrowing sow deserves a warm, dry pen. Even artificial heat may be needed in severe weather to prevent chilling of little pigs from being crushed. In feeding the sow, consider her as a milk producer and then feed accordingly. Skim milk, oats and mill feeds are all good milk producing feeds. Include a variety of feeds in the ration. Treatment of the little pigs for anemia is a ‘.must” in this day and age. Without treatment, early spring pigs often become pale and listless. Either reduced iron or powdered ferrous sul­ phate, the amount that can be put on a' ten cent piece. Treat the pigs when two to four days of age and then twice again at weekly intervals. Creep feeding can be started when the pigs are about three weeks of age. A creep js an ar­ rangement whereby the pigs can feed at will, separately from the sow. Larger, thriftier pigs with less chance of a setback at weaning will be the reward. Feed a pig starter in the creep and provide water in a separate trough. All of these recommendations are directed toward the raising of larger, stronger litters of pigs. It is those extra pigs and stronger pigs which contribute so much to the profits in pig raising. rink, Hy- $26.- pres- Pea- supplies, -H AIRPORT NEWS .............. . ....... .........................................i.
