Farmer. When the late Thomas Blythe
was trying TO settle n colony AT Ierdo

he sent down a large number OF very
fine full-Elooded berkshire and Poland
China pigs and turned them loose OF
the banks of the river near Lerdo,
where they lived on roots, grass, weeds,
tules and mesquite beans, bred and
multiplied, kept fat and filled the lo,;
and tule lands with large number Of
fine porkcrs.
Never seeing human being, except
HOW and then lone Indian, they soon
became wild, and wilder still, and scat
tered until the woods and lowlands
were full of them. Notwithstanding
that the coyotes slaughtered the little
ones in great numbers, they have in

estimated that there are more than TO-
