Hog Raising in the South.
The following item which ap
peared in the Sparta Ishmaelite of
a recent date, is one worthy the
attention ot trie Tanners ot Newton
! county, and especially is this true
j when we recall the fact, that right
here in Covington within the past
! 12 months we have heard frequent
demands for hogs, and our people
were unable to supply the demand.
^is is not as it should be, and we
trust that in the future they w ■ ill
at least be able to supply tae de
TOan d which exists in Covington,
The item spoken of, is as follows :
"Hog raising in the south under
the stimulus of better markets
brought about in large measure by
the establishment of southern pack
eries. is assuming such proportions
as bid * fair to rival if not surpass
*11 other branches of farm Indus
tr 5 r - A few years ago under the
almost exclusive reign ofKingCot
ton, farmers as a rule contented
themselves with the production of
a scant supply for home consump¬
tion, and A large number not even
that. Now*, conditions have so
changed that nearly all are'not only
supplying the home needs, but
many are making the raising and
1 narketing of hogs the main source
of income.
By converting the surplus grains
into hog products they are enabled
to greatly lessen the cost of trans
portation, besides realizing higher
prices than is paid on the markets
for the corn, oats, barley and even
wheat in many instances.
When one is raising a few hogs
for home consumption o-ifcaa one
of less ngWife attention to the pro
of meat with the coveted
alternated with the ,
of fat
of lean, so much talked of,
but when it comes to raising hogs
as a means of getting our entire
surplus grains to market at lower
prices, we want produce the hogs
that bring us tho most clear money
for our labor and investments.
The quality ot a hog is deter
mined by its fitness for the purpose
for which it was created, or is now
being raised, The purpose for
which hogs are grown in this age
is for the money there is in the
business, and the quality of the hog
must be determined by its capaei
ty to produce profit.
A bunch of hogs weighing from
to 250 pounds, fat and sleek,
200 gently arched,
with broad backs,
broad, round hams, nice heads,
I even sizes and colors, making an

attractive appealance, will always
command the highest prices, In
order to produce that type of hogs
it is necessary to strike an average
between the extra large and coarse
* i,xl m >av ; 5 kiiuTl
fancy type.
The experience of feeders and
others is that hogs of this size at
eight or nine months old cost less
per pound than .hose that are lar
ger and heavier.
Now, it is plain that the animals
that will produce just the class of
hogs that will, under good care
and attention, fill the requirements
enumerated above, or that for which
the buyer will pay the highest
price, are the ones of highest
quality.
A sow that will raise eight pigs
that with good attention and feed
ing will weigh 200 pounds at eight
months old, at present prices,
would be worth about five cents
per pound, or eighty dollars. An
other, raising the same number of
pigs and under the same treatment,
weighing 150 each at the same age,
would bring about four and one
half cents, or fifty-four dollar, a
difference in favor of the first of
twenty-six dollars, which is prac
tically the difference in value of the
two sows, for only one litter. If
there were two litters per year the
difference would be fifty-two dol
lars. This shows that the quality

girls should make their choice be
tween the home life and the active
business or professional life, » >
It is very clear from all the ex
pert opinion that it is the plain du
ty of girls to get married. At
least they cannot hope to manage
a husband and a business success
fully at the time. Matrimony and
business are incompatible. 1 here
must be a choice between the
store or the office and the home,
All this is very well for the girls
who are privileged to make a
choice between matrimony and
business, Unfortunately there are
not enough marriageable young
men to go around even if they
were all disposed to embrace mat
rimony.
Under these conditions the great
field of industrial and professional
opportunity becomes alluring to
ambitious young women. Itis fu
tile to present to them the duty of
marriage when there is a dearth of
matrimonial offers. She has, there
