The effects of differences in weaning age on agonistic interactions between pigs after regrouping were investigated, studying 47 piglets from six litters weaned either between 9 and 12 days of age (EW, n = 24) or between 21 and 23 days of age (CW, n = 23). At 9 weeks of age, both EW and CW animals were regrouped into four pens based on their weight (six EW, six CW/pen) and all agonistic interactions within EW pairs and within CW pairs were monitored until 3 days post-mixing. Results indicate that EW animals fought longer than CW pigs on day 1, while no effect of weaning age was found on subsequent days. Furthermore, whereas no significant effects of weaning age were found on the outcome of fights, on day 1, the number of fights not won by the initiator was greater for EW pigs. It is concluded that early weaning of piglets leads to a short-lasting increase in aggression after mixing. Possible mechanisms are discussed. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved

"Becoming Old Stock sheds light on the way German Americans used race, American nationalism, and mass culture to fashion new identities in place of ethnic ones. It is also an important contribution to the growing literature on racial identity among European Americans. In tracing the fate of one of America's largest ethnic groups, Becoming Old Stock challenges historians to rethink the phenomenon of ethnic assimilation and to explore its complex relationship to American pluralism."--Jacket. "Using quantitative methods, oral history, and a cultural analysis of written sources, the book explores how, by the 1920s, many middle-class and Lutheran residents had redefined themselves in "old-stock" terms - as "American" in opposition to southeastern European "new immigrants." It also examines working-class and Catholic Germans, who came to share a common identity with other European immigrants, but not with newly arrived black Southerners." "More Americans trace their ancestry to Germany than to any other country. Arguably, German Americans form America's largest ethnic group. Yet they have a remarkably low profile today, reflecting a dramatic, twentieth-century retreat from German-American identity. In this age of multiculturalism, why have German Americans gone into ethnic eclipse - and where have they ended up? Becoming Old Stock represents the first in-depth exploration of that question. The book describes how German Philadelphians reinvented themselves in the early twentieth century, especially after World War I brought a nationwide anti-German backlash."
