A year ago last spring farrowing records were kept on 5'1 Kansas farms by the experiment btatlon of that state. From thesy records It was found that 283 sows that were fed com properly balaaced with tankage, skim milk, oil meal or alfalfa, far rowed i.flflO pig«. <»r an average of 10.1 pigs per litter. These anws also had good surroundings and were well cared for. Of these pigs 84 per cent were raised to weaning time. In other words 8Ui pigs per litter were thrifty when old enough to wean. Another lot of ldd sow* on 11 farm* farrowed an average of 7.2 pigs per sow snd rglsed 3.8 pigs per litter. These sows had received practically nothing but com. The unbalanced ra tion decreased the size of the weaned litters by 40 per cent. Much results are not uncommon; on the contrary. I they Invariably follow the feeding of. corn alone to pregnant sows.
