Sink is one of those men who does

Sink of Ann Arbor.    But this latest
appointment—well, just what connec-

I Q   of the Prize Winners.
j F. J. Hall of Holloway is winner of
j the 1929 pig crop contest, according
1 to an announcement from the Michl-
i gan State College animal husbandry
department.
.   Mr. Hall produced 58 spotted Poland China pigs from six sows with an
average litter weight of 1,984 pounds
and an  average  pig weight  of  205
pounds in ISO days.   The total weight
of the 58 pigs was 12,210 pounds and
they were sold on the Detroit market
at 511.40 per hundred, a premium of
15 cents per hundred over the highest
price paid on the day they were sold.
Thirteen swine producers furnished
the contest this year and the winners
of the first ten places will receive
cash prizes.    The prize winners are
as follows:    F. J. Hall of Holloway;
Karl Smith, Cassopolis; Wayne Run-
ciman,   Wiliamston;   Emery   Jewett,
"Mason; C. N. Easton, Saline; W.' H.
Collar, Dansville, David Mellott, Morenei; E. M. Bacon and Son, Mulliken;
N.   C.   Everett,   Decatur;   and  Roy
Brazee,   Marshall.     The"   contest   is
sponsored   by   the   Michigan   Swine
Breeders Association and the Michigan State college.
A marked improvement over last
year was shown in the results of the
contest   this   year.     Although   last
year's champion was able to increase
both pig weight and litter weight this
year,   competition  proved  to be  so
keen that he dropped down to fifth
place.
Every contestant who finished this
year received top market price and
many received premiums of from 15
to 25 cents per hundred.
