Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book describes a practical method for marking hogs with indelible tattoo marks for the purposes of positive identification after slaughter. The method involves the use of a specialized tattooing instrument with interchangeable blocks containing steel needles arranged to form numbers and letters. The needles are coated with a special marking fluid and then pressed into the skin of the hog, creating a permanent mark that remains visible even after several months. The author provides detailed instructions on the use of the tattooing instrument, including the optimal force and technique for applying the marks, as well as the composition of the marking fluid. The book also discusses the advantages and limitations of the method, addressing concerns about pain and discomfort to the animals. Overall, this book offers a valuable guide to anyone seeking a reliable and effective method for identifying hogs, with a particular focus on applications in disease control, cooperative marketing, and research. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
