HOG SCHOOL IS BEING PLANNED Wells County Agent to Have Charge of Twoday Session Soon Unthrifty and runty pigs are becoming so common that many farmers In Indiana are at the ■>oint of quitting the hog business. Why is it that many years ago hogs could be raised successfully whereas today on the same farm pigs often become unthrifty and profits on hogs dwindle? Among the common causes of unthriftiness are parasites, lung troubles, and digestive disturbances. Post mortem examinations this year of more than 150 unthrifty pigs on Indiana farms have revealed that more than 90 percent -of them were Infested with the common round worm. It is the common practice among farmers to adminster a vermifuge when pigs are known to be wormy. These parasites may be expelled by this treatment, but the damages inflicted in tho liver, lungs and small intestines by these worms in the different stages of their life cycle, cannot be repaired so easily. It has been found in a practical system of management that thia worm infestation can lie almost entirely pt evented in pigs. This practice will be explained and the damages to the vital organs by the habits of these worms will be shown in post mortem examinations of unthrifty pigs at the Wells county hog school on February- 6 and 7. The program begins promptly at 10 o’clock in the morning arid' ends at 3 o'clock in tiie afternoon i>oth days. Anyone interested in the swine .industry should attend these demonstrations by Dr. Wickwire, Federal Veterinarian, who lias had many years of experience In this work. Every number on the program will be of unusual interest. Tiie school wil! be in charge of M. S. Smith, county agent.
