The Hon. George Hutton unveils a Manitoba policy to assess and improve market swine. Aimed at commercial hog producers, the program offers $2,000 in prize money shared by Manitoba and Canada agriculture departments. Local agricultural reps enroll eligible herds and classify sows by breed and number while gathering management data.
Producers will select two hogs per litter with one male and one female. Records cover from weaning to rail grade, including market days, hot carcass weight, carcass length and back fat thickness. Each sow’s score includes pigs weaned.
The piece advises parents on teen behavior as social hosts and eaters, noting teens seek welcoming homes and frequent food. It suggests guiding them in cooking, and mentions a January 19 1962 TV Short Course in Agriculture and Rural Living about farm and home topics airing on Brandon and Yorkton stations from 10 30 to noon.
