_ (Editors Note: This is the first of a 
series of articles on swine production.) 
 
_ In the past, it has been common prac- 
 
the ce for most hog producers to market 
their slaughter hogs only once or twice a 
year, usually in the spring or fall. If lucky, 
hey receive the average yearly market 
rice, but they usually receive less than 
-his amount, 
- According to USDA figures for the 
nation, 33.1 percent of all hogs slaughter- 
ad are marketed during the three months 
when prices are lowest. Some 24.9 per- 
cent are sold during the next lowest price 
period. As a result, 58 percent of all hogs 
ymarketed are sold during the three 
months when prices are lowest. Only 18.4 
percent of the total hogs sold are market- 
ed during the three months when prices 
mare the highest. This leaves 23.6 percent 
of the hogs to be sold during the remain- 
ing: dire months. 
 
_ Hog producers need to do a better job 
of marketing their animals throughout the 
year to hit the high price periods. The 
answer is MULTIPLE FARROWING. 
Multiple farrowing is the practice of di- 
viding the sow herd into groups so the 
producer will have pigs being born four 
or more times a year. For example, a man 
has 20 sows; he divides them into two 
groups of ten sows each. With this plan 
he will have pigs being born four times a 
year as each sow will produce two litters 
each year. 
 
- By following this or a similar plan he 
will have slaughter hogs to sell four times 
a year, This means he will be more likely 
to hit part of the annual peaks in the hog 
price range as well as the average or 
lower prices. 
 
_ This practice of two groups is not an 
iron fast rule but should be the minimum 
number of groups used. If a man had a 
larger sow herd he might want to divide 
into more than two groups, maybe even 
farrow a group every month. 
 
- Multiple farrowing has many advan- 
tages, some of which are listed below:

By having hogs to sell every month or so 
the farmer establishes a milk check 
like income. 
 
MAKES A MORE EFFICIENT USE 
OF EQUIPMENT: If a producer has been 
farrowing 200 pigs twice a year, he could 
farrow 4 times a year and get greater use 
of his equipment. 
 
HE CAN AFFORD A BETTER HERD 
BOAR: With multiple farrowing, the herd 
boar cost per litter is much less than un- 
der the once or twice a year system, be- 
cause he is used on a year around basis. 
This means the farmer can afford to buy 
a much better herd boar. 
 
SPREAD OUT FARROWINGS PUTS 
HOG RAISING ON A FACTORY BASIS 
AND TAKES OUT SPECULATION: The 
time of farrowing can be adjusted to the 
slack seasons of his other farm operations, 
thus making the overall farm program 
one continuous operation,

Cotton Seed Labels 
Must Show Variety 
 
There will be a shortage of good cotton 
in Georgia this spring and the Depart- 
ment of Agriculture has received infor- 
mation that some seed of unknown variety 
may be offered for sale in the state in 
violation-of the state regulation which re- 
quires that cotton seed be labeled as to 
variety. 
 
Farmers should use caution in buying 
cotton seed for next years crop. They 
should purchase their seed only from a 
reputable firm and make certain the va- 
riety of the seed is printed on the seed 
tag. 
 
Samples of cotton seed collected in 
enforcement of the Georgia Seed Law 
this spring will be submitted to the Geor- 
gia Experiment Station for growing out 
in the field to determine whether or not 
the seed was correctly labeled as to va- 
riety in accordance with state law. 
 
The state seed law requires that the 
name of the variety be shown on the tag 
or label attached to all seed offered for 
sale in the state. 
 
When field tests show that cotton seed 
sold was not correctly labeled the person 
selling the seed is subject to prosecution 
for violating state seed laws. 
 
The germination requirements for 
cotton seed have been lowered from 70 
to 60 percent to insure that adequate seed 
will be available for planting. All cotton 
seed germinating less than 70 percent 
however must be stamped germination 
sub-Nandard in red ink on the seed tag. 
 
Faster And Cheaper Hog 
Gains With Shelled Corn 
 
Shelled corn mixed with a supplement 
results in faster and cheaper hog gains 
than ground ear corn and a supplement 
combination, according to North Caro- 
lina State College. 
 
The North Carolina report is based on 
nutritional studies at the North Carolina

The price index. for Class I fluid milk in Georgia, 
calculated according to the official pricing formula, in- 
creased slightly between December 1 
from 108.82 to 109.77 but remained in the same bracket. 
The increase ts attributed to a 0.3 point increase in the 
Wholesale Price Index and $2 per ton increase in prices 
paid for hay. Prices paid for mixed dairy feed and the 
farm wage rate were unchanged from the December 1 
report. The formula automatically balances changes and 
| produces a net change in the milk price index.
