Dell Burnham has evidently solved
tho nrobleln of farming in the
polouse country. When asked by
newspaper man this week how
nnch wheat he calculated to raise next
season, he said "only what ! need for
home consumption. Not that he is
Going to discontinue raising wheat, but
no exnects to be able to use good deal
of II right at home, and to that end he
hoe established home market. The
ubome market" consists OF an immense
herd OF hogs, he now having $50 on
hand, and he confidently expects that 1T
will he increased to at least 700 before
another spring. Instead of raising 20
cent wheat he will turn many OF his
fields into hog pastures and what he
sdoes raise will be marketed in the shape
of pork. What point for pork pack
ing establishment Pullman will be when
more OF our farmers raise hogs on such
scale.
