When Elder Bill Liversidge was a missionary in New Guinea he decided that he would plant the garden of all gardens. He had good soil, abundant rain and the boys at the school were available to help him tend the garden. He was extremely excited about the prospect of the wonderful fresh vegetables that would soon be available to him. There was just one thing that he failed to take into account. Now you must understand something about pigs in New Guinea.
Pigs are wealth.
Often you will see mothers in New Guinea suckling their infant on one breast and a piglet on the other. If you kill a pig in New Guinea you will pay with your life - as one young Adventist missionary recently found out when he killed a pig by accident with his car. So when the pigs began eating Bill s garden he instructed the boys to kill them. So Bill asked what could be done to keep them out of the garden. They came upon a plan that they thought might work.
