How to Raise More Pigs
A CLEAN RIDE TO CLEAN, PASTURE ON CLEAN PASTURE UNTIL 4MONTHS OLD
D¥ FOLLOWING the system of swine sanitation first used in McLean County,
Illinois, it is possible to raise 25 to 50 per cent more pigt per litter and get
the pigs ready for market several weeks sooner and with less feed than by
ordinary methods, the Sears-Roebuck Agricultural Foundation indicates. The
loss of small pigs and the stunting of growth of those which survive, due to
worms and necrotic enteritis can be avoided.
There are four easily performed steps in the system as outlined by the
Illinois College of Agriculture:
1. Scrub the farrowing quarters with one pound of lye to 30 gallons
of boiling hot water, then spray with one pint of compound cresol solution
in four gallons of water. The lye loosens dirt, the hot water kills the worm
eggs, and the disinfectant kills the germs of infectious diseases.
2. Wash the sow's sides and udder with soap and water before putting
her in the clean farrowing pen. This removes any worm eggs which may be
sticking to the body of the sow.
3. Give the sow and pigs a clean ride to a pasture where n. hogs
have run for at least a year. A pasture which has been in a cultivated crop
since last used by hogs is preferable. This avoids contamination from filthy
hog lots.
4. Keep the pigs on clean pasture until they are at least four months old.
Farmers who followed this system of preventing contamination from old
hog lots reported that 45 minutes were required on the average for one man
to scrub the pen for one sow and 20 minutes were required to scrub the sow.
The sows raised an average of 6.3 pigs per litter, compared with 4.8. pigs
before the system was adopted. There were practically no runts and the pigs
reached the usual market weights 6 to 7 weeks earlier than before. Careful
records of farmers slum* that where the McLean system was practiced, 100
pounds of pork were made with 309 pounds of corn and other feeds compared
with 501 pounds of corn on farms where no special effort was made to keep
the pigs from becoming infested. Four ears of corn plus sanitation were
equal to five ears without it.
