Small Hogs In Demand in Early American Pig Farming
In this piece by 8. C. Miller the shift from lean sprinter hogs to fatter market hogs is traced. It notes southern planters bred lean hogs for ham quality while corn belts favor fattening to 300 pounds, harming ham texture. Tamworth hogs emerge as ideal ham producers, plus a European demand for lighter hams and farm education efforts. Miss B Candler of Cassville, Wis, is highlighted for a large honey crop and Missouri’s tobacco output reaches half a million pounds valued at 12¢ per pound.
