. Biggle swine book. Swine. [from old catalog]. PLAN for the breeding sow. The new-born pigs get tangled in the straw when there is too much, and they get un- der it and the sow hes on them. They should always be in sight. Here is a design for a small, inexpensive house. The plan shows the arrangement. It is twelve and one-half by eight and one-half feet, divided by the low partition P. The doors are marked DD. The one from the feeding room leads out into the yard. The feed trough is shown with the chute that leads to it. The house is eight and one-half feet high in front and five feet in the rear. The eaves should project a foot or more. The par- tition is five feet high at the highest part, sloping down to six inches. WW. are the windows, one and section one-half by two feet. The door leading into the yard should be two and one-half feet high and two feet wide. An Ohio man sends me his plan for a combined hog house and corn crib shown herewith. Fig. i is the floor plan. It is forty feet long and thirty feet wide, exclusive of the runways marked FFF in the plan. The pens are eight by ten and the entry is ten feet wide. The outside runs are as long as you care to make them. This house can be lengthened or shortened to suit the requirements of the builder by leaving off or adding pens to the plan as here.
