Abstract
How far can swine breeding follow profitably the road which corn breeding blazed with hybrid corn? What other questions need answering if methods of swine breeding are to be made more effective than the present ones which have already brought us far toward having prolific, growthy, hardy and profitable hogs whose carcasses are of the kind the market wants? Getting answers to these questions is the general goal of the experiments in swine breeding at the Iowa Station.
