improvement of bacon quality in canada tha canadian york shire has been our predominant bread in canada for a goad many years in that breed we have outstand ing individuals some of medium quality and still others which can only be considerwd of inferior con formation in our experience the same holds true of all breeds of livestock consequently we csn t help but wonder if the introduct ion of new breeds of swine in this county will in the final analysis be a retrograde step we hsvr followed the progress made in canada with large eng lish whites land sec and cross bred uf these two breeds and wj are yet to be convinced that they are superior to our canadian york shires from the standpoint of quality of bacon tuc hybridation of corh poultry etc has made a worthwhile contribution but let us not forget that in most instances the parent stock has been kept pure this crossing of breeds does pre sent possibilities of s better market host from the standpoint oi vigor rate of gala etc- but if we keep these cross bred gills as breeding stock just where sre we going to end up perhaps ws are just plain old fashioned and too slow adopting new ideas but until see an impocmcnt in quality of
