THE PIGS’ DIET.
Pigs are easily upset by a sudden change of diet, and care must be taken, if ill results are to be avoided, iot to force them with too much rich
tfid fattening food at first. Feed on a light diet to begin with. In putting a pig up to feed to begin cramming him when fresh from an outdoor existence is to invite mischief. It is the food which is properly assimilated and digested that counts, and not the quantity consumed. If the system is irritated or upset then the food passes through without its nutritious proper* ties being extracted*
