some garbage, which but for him would on
the first warm day out smell Peck's bad boys
limburger cheese. But for q whole parcel of
country bred men with sound legs and
Stomachs. many of whom were sfotch upr
on bacon and corn bread, to get excited when
they hear the grunt of 3 porker on the street
seems to US a little odd. So far a. we can see
the hog amply repays Us q scavenger all the
trouble he causes by running at large. and Is
not half the nuisance so, that he is in a pen
which smells aloud to heaven aud sends. its
stencil o er the fence into the neiyhbor's
premises with no recourse at law against 1t as
a trespasser. With the inadequate arrange
ments which we have to !'eep this city clean
we believe that the hogs do more good than
harm when allowed to run at large therefore,
we are IN favor Of permitting them to do 50.
No one, we imagine, viii say that people who
live in town should not be permitted 10 econ
omlze by raising a few hogs. Upon the gen.
tlemen who claim, then, that they can't fence
them o"t OF their gardens, will rest the onus
Prooamdi to convince the balance of their fell
low citizens that 1t Is possible for them to
fence in the delectable beasts. We are In
favor OF legislating for the greatest good to
the greatest number. For that reason we
oppose restraining swine in town, and nd.
vocate 1t when it concerns the whole county.
In the country the fences are a very consid.
cradle object, costing as much IL all the
houses. With hogs restrained one half the
cost ofthe fences can be saved. This IL such Il
great big thing that 1t dwarfs all other con-id.
CREATIONS md eompels the conclusion that 1t Is
best TO restrain them. This We might elabor-
ate here but 1t Is unnecessary. We do not
see the wisdom Of having opened this hog
question Just now In Lexington, indeed we
think IL was unwise to do so, as the likelihood
is that 1t will be sssin' submitted to the poo
pie Of the county this autumn, but ~ It mas
been made an issue for next Tuesday. and
seems to be the onlv one. we unhesifatiusiy
express the view that 50 far as the c,tv is
concerned 1t IL better that he hogs should be
allowed 70 run st large.

Every family in Lexington, no matter how
careful and particular, has ut least one bucket
full every day of slop, composed Of bones,
greasy water, vegetable and fruit parings or

slop. Each family cannot afford to keep a

they are to eat 1t themselves. The conse-
Quence is that 1t II, and indeed must be, thrown

putrefes it will breed diphtheria and typhoid

Of all this slop is to turn the hogs out and let
