The production of pork forms one of the most important lines of ani- mal industry in the farms of can- ada, as is shown by the fact that in 1926 there were 4,470,771 pigs in Canada. While the raising of hogs is thus receivmg considerable atâ€" tention at the present time, there are many farmers who do not apâ€" preciate the. importance of this branch of animal production. Pigs are economical producers of meat when fed skim-milk, whey, gar- bage, grain and other products and byâ€"products of the farm. In fact they are inseparable from the most successful operation of dairy .farms ‘l-vc vv â€"v v For the economical and success- ful raising of pigs, the value of good sows as to type and-prolificacy cannot be over-emphasized. Care- ful feeding and .proper care are also very important if the best re- sults are toibe obtaineq; " by UV "v At the Dominion Experimental Station, Kapuskasing, Ontario, where a number of pure-bred Yorkshire sows of good 'type are kept, the breeding records as well as the total amount of 'feed con- sumed during each of the following periods are recorded: (1) from weaning to fia‘rrowing; (2) from far- ro‘wing until the pigs are weaned. 1'---“ _-..AJ.n Annz Ln Wfiie keeping of hogs is always as” socra‘ted. with 9. well-balanced and prggresglve agmcu}t1_1‘re. _‘J ----AA~R sold: During the four years, 1924 to 1927 inclusive, six hundred and thirty-five pigs were raised to weaning age. These represented seventy-nine litters, an averageof eight pigs per litter- Over a period of 193 days, the average number of days from weaning to farrowing, each sow consumed an average of 1159 pounds of grain. This, plus a small charge for pasture, cost $23.55. From farrowing; until the pigs are weaned, a per1od of 58 days, the sows consumed an average of 696 pounds of grain plus some skim-milk, which cost $14.72 .per sow. When $2.00 is added for the service fee, it is found that the service and the feed cost of the sow and her litter is $40.27 from the time the last litter was weaned un- til the next litter is ready to wean. Therefore the average cost of the pigs; at that age is $5.03 each. -__ _ .1 Have your valves ground, igni- tion overhauled, carbon cleaned, .this Spring. Only $3.00 labor. 3 29 1 SMITH BROS. l’-C7V “v vâ€"“ The number of litters farrowed per sow each year, as well as the number of pigs in each litter, are two factors which greatly influence the cost. It, is also true that every time a nursing sow loses a young pig the cost of the others is rela- tively increased. FORD OWNERS! KG 'PIGS T0 WEARING AG‘E ACCIDENTS AND COMPENSATION The Hollinger disaster is begin- ning to show in compensation fig- ures and the total benefits awarded by the W-orkmen’s Compensation Board in‘March were higher than any one month since the com- mencement of the Act in Ontario. Last month the Board awarded $764,263.57 which included $108.- 025.06 for medical aid. The accid- ents reported numbered ‘in March 5,711, an increase over February when 5,570 were reported. Fataliâ€" ties in March, however, were con- siderably below the average, there having been 26 death cases report- ed. The total number of accidents reported in the first quarter of 1928 was 16.337, an increase of only 216 over last year, which would be more than offset by increased em- ployment. ‘_ l"'Vâ€"â€"â€" _ Some authorities claim that ac- cidents run in cycles and, in this connection, R. B. Morley, General Manager, Industrial Accident Pre- vention Associations, tells of a re- cent epidemic of accidents to workers who were seriously injur- ed by wagons or trucks. One driver of a Toronto firm was severely crushed while at back of his own car. Another in Brantford suffer- cd' leg injuries when caught bet- ween loaded truck and tractor. A third case brought deathto a work: George McIvor is. only 33 years old, but as genera! man- ager of the Canadian Co-op- erative Wheat Producers Ltd. sales department, at Winni- peg, he is said to control the shipment of half of the Cana- dian wheat crop until it reaches the buyers in all parts of the world. He start- ed out as a telegraph messen- get. Own Correspondent) Mrs? ' hos. Watson and two children of Gait were visitors Good Friday with the former’s brother, Mr John McGirr.
