Mr. C. L. Siiknk of Page couu
ty, Va., writ as follows to the
Progressive Farmer:
I would like a small space to give
many of your readers a brief do
scription of theDuroc Jersey swine,
as it seems fium numerous inqui
ries that they are not well posted
as to some advantages they possess
over other breeds. They are a pure
Americau breeil brought out by
brain and hustle on the part of
tome industrious farmer.
The call was lout; Hni' '0,lt' "'r
pome Improvement iu our hogs, and
finally the Duroc arrived, smooth!
as an apple in a handsome new
suit of a ehrrry red. Mr. Koom.
velt's "rare suicide" is not appli
cable to Mm. Duroc. She is a be
liever in large families, generally
from 12 to IS pigs. I now have a
sow with a record of forty heven
pigs in one year. Xor, w hen her
pigs come into this world, does she
snap and stump around two or
three days and kill half of them.
Instead she supplies them with a
uuality and quantity of milk no
other breed cau riiil.
It ia well to have good sires to
breed from; bnt it is equally im
portant to have good mothers to
raise the pigs; and there are no bet
ter mothers than the Duroc. If
there wag oue brood sow oil every
farm in the South there would la!
less Western meat on our tables to
day. If yon turn them out on a range
to "root pig or die," if your other
hogs live we are sure you will nev
er have a poor Duroc.
Again if yon pen them nml wish
to force feed them, they are of a
good bone and will not break down.
They fatten at any age ami carry
all yoo can put on them, and when
brought to balance accounts you
find moie pork for amount of feed
consumed than any hug kuown.
Tbey will also net more for a
given gross weight. This part we
observed particularly when we ran
a city meat market for ten yeain,
bought our hogs alive and butch
ered them. We always catered af
ter Durocs and paid top market
price to get them.
They are easy to cleau anil have
a pretty white skin when dressed.
Tbey also have good loins, hire,
large, lean hams and shoulders.
Kven the sides are well marbled
with lean. We could always work
them into fresh pork sausage at a
ready sale at 2 or 3 cents per pouud
more than some other clear side
breeds.
If yoo want good general pur
pose hog, oue that will be a gilt
edged investment on the farm, try
the Duroc,
If yoo want to get some of these
bogs, from best Kentucky and Ten
nessee blood, you can get pigs now

west of Monroe, J. T. Yarhorough,

The giivniinnnl, Mr. Stubbs

done as above intimated, by plant

by crop diversification. As yet,
