Early pIrs are most profitable for the following rea sons! 1. If crowded, they arc usually large enough to market In tho fall bo fore winter seta In. i. They arc generally largo enough to begin to eat forage as soon as pasture Is. ready. This permits the hog grower to have his sows on pasture tnrougnout practically the entire season. 3. Karly pigs make more economical gains because .they can be finished for tlid mariccr oeioro tnc com weainer sci in. Average Sstsb to LitUr. Without gooil houses two litters a year can seldom be raised to advantage. The author of this bulletin claims that his" Investigation shows that good hog men average seven pigs raised to the litter, while the general average raised on tho farm, docs not exceed four pigs to "the Mltter.' This wide dlfefrcnce; Is due largely to housing. This bulletin discusses tho prevailing poor conditions of hog houses, hog cots or Individual houses, ventilation, how to get sunlight lnt6 the pen. An'polntcd out In this bulletin one of the most Important features of a hog house Is Its construction so as to per mit' the greatest amount of sunlight to fall upon the' floor of the farrowjng pen. The1 author gives an outline map of the United States, snowing even parallols of latitude from 36 degrees north to 46 de grees north. Tables are given whoch shlW.tho height nt which to place the window's to receive tho sunlight on the floor during aHiy month from January 1 to May 1. Inclusive. . &1UU Figs or Sunshine. "TJio Uttle pig." says tho author, "loves the sunshlno and needs It most as 'much as iia needs food. No piggery In fit for the purpso unless It admits direct sunshlno onto the floor of every pen at tho time tho pigs are farrowed, furnishes plenty of fresh air. and pro vides for exercise In the open air. Dry ness, sunshine, warmth, fresh air, free dom from drafts and exercise are of pri mary Importance In raising pigs. These secured, the battle is half won. In put ting up buildings the alx requirements just mentioned must be kept constant ly In mind; not one can be neglected." This bulletin should be In the hands of everv farmer who Is Interested In hog raising. Jt Is Issued for general dis tribution and can bo secured tree uy writing to tho representatives In con gress.
