The reason for fills is that animals are more apt to inllellit faults illall de- sirable points. Tho careful breeder resorts to inbreeding to establish prepotency in his animals. Dead and hairless pigs were the result. During tifc second gestation per-l loll lllu sows received 33 pounds‘ of corn, 33 pounds of oats. and 33 pounds of alfalfa.

The degree of prcpotun- c_v measures the value of tho pure- bred over the scrulb or the grade animal. Prepotenlwy is established first »hy. lnlhrcorilng and kept up by line fir-ending, which is breeding to nellr relations. ‘However, the breeder who prac- tises either inbreeding or line breeding must do much culling. else he may establish the undesir- able ones. if an animal has a ten- dency to a certain disease ‘this tendency is very npt to be doubled in the product from inbreeding. This is t.le great danger from the general practice of inbreeding. T-hc fact that animals are more apt to inherit faults than good points is the strongest argument against in- breeding.
