another source however difficulty arose when two men inspected the same herd sometimes one vould admit that the disease was present while the other would declare the animals free leroy g brown agricultural representative for huron the third largest producing hog county in ontario said that dr duthies find ings had been presented to york shire breeders at a meeting held at clinton last week he termed them recent work which had not been made known widely as yet and be lieved they should get more pub licity ed the teeth of either young or old animals when making selections for breeding purposes one of them asked does it matter whether they have teeth when they are fed slops this farmers very pertinent question offers room for great differences of opinion the hog breeders chief purpose has been to produce pork not selfdependent animals it is quite possible that not a single specimen of the domesti cated hog family with or without teeth could survive one of our canadian winters should some un expected calamity force them to fend for themselves to survive in any climate they might need teeth but toothless hogs possibly could supply as much pork as others so long as they received proper care should be normal many farmers feed dry feeds however as well pork from hogs which have lost their teeth may have lost some minerals vitamins or other properties which are more difficult to detect than teeth and which are essential to mans health although he has given none these could be two of a number of reasons why doctor r c duthie dominion pathologist at leth- bridge believes that hogs mouths should be normal in his article malformation of jaws in yorkshire swine publish ed in the agricultural institute review dr duthie said during our early work on chronic rhinitis of swine in 1915 it was noted that the majority of the affected animals were markedly prognathic under shot the lower jaw exceeding the length of the tipper his pre decessors had thought the malfor mation resulted from rhinitis but later experiments showed that the deformity existed independent of that disease and was confined al most entirely to the yorkshire breed inspectors who examined several thousand heads from hogs slaught ered in calgarys abattoirs reported that they could not find a single yorkshire hog of this age and weight specified with a normal mouth a later survey extended to include alberta saskatchewan and ontario indicated that be tween s5 and 90 per cent of all young swine of yorkshire breeding were prognathic from to 1 and vz breeding had normal dental con tact there the pugnosed york was not so prevalent he said under a photograph of a york shire stag 14 months prognathic 1 inches his note read this is the typo of shortnosed yorkshire boar that has been distributed in large numbers for breeding pur poses dr duthies recommendations for correcting the deformity are comparatively simple the mal formation could be corrected in the same way that it was developed by selective breeding he said the deformity began to show up in teething pigs at three to four weeks of age selecting the breed ing stock should be begun then regardless of the length and shape of head of those retained other imperfections could be weeded from the herd later to make the selections of course breeders must examine the jaws and teeth painful process at the feed trough the hog with deformed jaws has great difficulty etting dry chop into the mouth and must scoop it up with his pro jecting lower jaw elevate his head and work it back into the mouth with the aid of his tongue a rather slow and painful process said dr duthie specialists interviewed by the telegram claimed that the malfor mation caused greater irritation to pigs with rhinitis but they were much less impressed with its importance than dr duthie hogs need lo visit dentist con officials here dont agree with dr duthie said w p watson associate director of the ontario live stock branch his findings had not affected ontarios breeding pro gram to any great extent but the fact that no one here or in europe had discovered the cause for rhinitis he believed gave some credence to dr duthies theory more facts will be needed to establish rhinitis as a separate dis ease nobody knows what the dis ease is said w d wilson of the royal winter fair office we believe there is such a thing as rhinitis its a battle as to who is right said mr watson experi ments toward that end he said were being conducted at the ontario veterinary college at mwmbmmzmhw3mwm sincere christmas greetings of
