Our esteemed contemporary, the
Edgefeld Farmer, gives the fol-
lowing good advise: con almost
every farm there is q pressing need
of more pigs and fewer ours. A
50 pig fed till next January on
slops and table refuse (Which cost
nothing) will net $50 or 800
pounds; which, at 12t cents per
pound, will amount to $3.50. Get
q pig! 1t will be worth more to
you next Christmas than any two
acres you can plant in cotton. If
you raise your meat and it goes
down to 5 cents, you can eat if; if
you raise cotton aud it goes down
to 5 cents, you have got to sell.
Kill that worthless cur, and get
you pig"
