Adjust feeders periodically, don't overcrowd feeders and in other words, don't use feed for bedding Sell hogs at lighter weights As hogs get heavier feed efficiency goes down sharply, For example, on the average a 30 to 100 pound feeder will put on a pound of gain for every 2.6 pounds of feed consumed As he gets heavier this feed efficiency goes down so that the 225 pound market hog is eating more than four pounds of feed for every pound of gain he makes Select good breeding stock Feed efficiency and rate of gain are correlated and are inherited Average daily gain may be improved considerably by buying a boar that reaches 200 pounds at an early age. Traits that need to have emphasis placed on when selecting breeding stock are those that make money for the producer; namely, average daily gain, feed efficiency, length, backfat thickness and loin eve area. Try to increase litter size. Research show that you have approximately 20 percent less cost per market hog produced from a litter of 10 as compared to a litter of six COASTAL HAY No doubt about it. Coastal Bermudagrass makes quality hay. That is, if good management practices are carried out. In fact, properly managed Coastal hay will provid 100 pounds of total digestible nutrients for about half the cost of TDN from other sources such as annually seeded millet or small grain, silage, or grain The time to begin some of these management steps is fast approaching. So let’s review the treatment your Coastal needs in order to produce high yields of quality bay this year Burn the sod inlate F’ebruary or early March to control weeds and insects Soil test and meet lime needs In Marc apply mixed fertilizer, also according to soil test results. Nitrogen should be applied in split applications throughout the growing season About 100 pounds of actual N should be put Feb. 25, 1971 DONE i Che !-“ Soperton Nexus Mrs. Poole Is honored With Shower Mrs Patsy Poole was honored by the teachers of the Treutlen Elementary School with a stork shower, Tuesday, February 16 in the cafeteria.

Make an application of nitrogen after each cutting. A season total of 300 to 400 pounds of Nitrogen per acre is generally recommended for high yields and top quality.
