cently of Thomas Morris, secre-
tary of Oklahoma livestock ,-anit-
ary commission 'A ter the fail
ing an important one again. 1
was informed ene day th • past
week that Oklahoma ships more
hogs to Ft. Worth stockyards
than does the entire empire state
of Texas. The 1901 corn failure
wiped out the hog business in
this territory.
"Hogs can be raised as cheap-
ly.if not more so,in Oklahoma
than any place else in the United
States. Duri ig the entire winter
hogs can be fed with green stuff,
and that factalone insures cheap-
ness,health and clean pork. A
stock hog will winter well on one
ear of corn a day if he has plenty
of alfalfa hay to eat. An Okla-
homa hog,which can run all
summer long on alfalfa pasture
and then be placed on corn in the
fall for a short time,makes the
cheapest pork on earth; it is a
fact that hog cared for in this
manner luruish fresh pork at
from 1 to l.Jcents per pound.
"It is but little trouble to raise
hogs in Oklahoma. Disease is
scarce; in fact, it might be said
truthfully that there are no sick
hogs in this territory. A farmer
with a bunch of hogs and a field
of corn, with an alfalfa pasture,
has an independent life ahead of
him. The profit is big, the price
has been good and there is but
little trouble."
Mr Morris's statement was
drawn out by the fact that the
cattle growers and honesteaders
in Western Oklahoma are devot-
ing more time to hogs and le*s to
cattle. The low market price of
cattle is in great part the cause
of the charge.
