Selection will be practiced for lowered becki'st thickness in swinewithin a closed population. Selections will he ends upon the basis ofbackfat thickness weight ratio as determined In probing the live urinalsat approximately five months at age. The population under selection willconsist of twelve sows and four boars with gilts being selected «to Ironeseh litter and the boars eeeh free a separate litter.

A random control group will be nintained of the same breed group.The rando- pepulation will consist of eight renal» and four ‘1” with ., g

Memorandum to: J.‘W. Pou

From: H. A. Stewééf ééj&2;%v&£/

We are returning with this memorandum two copies of yourproject H150 ”Improvement of Swine by Selection andBreeding Procedures. I. Selection for Backfat ThicknessIn Swine.”

It was considered by the reviewers in the office of theState Experiment Station Division that consideration shouldbe given to selection on the backfat probe measurementadjusted for live weight rather than the unadjusted measure—ment on animals of a constant age. I feel that the authorof this project intended that such an adjustment would bemade but I believe a note should be included with theproject outline stating that live weight will be consideredwith probe measurement in making selections.
