Note the contrast as shown in Figure 16 between a healthy pig and one stunted by parasites. Consult United States Department of Agriculture Leaflet No. 5 (18).

At one packing plant in the South kidney worms and thornheaded worms cause an annual loss of $80,000. The use of a concrete wallow is an aid in keeping down worm infestations, provided it is properly con- structed and used. See Farmers' Bulletin No. 1085 (16) for direc- tions for constructing and using concrete wallows.
