FATTENlNo HOGS COSTS ONE CEN

FATTENiNG HOGS COSTS ONE CENT
The editor recently heard of a farmer
1attening hogs at less than one cent a
pound. This was made possible through
the sowing of Salzer's King Barley,
yielding over 100 blu. per acre, Golden
Triumph Corn, yielding 200 blu. per
acre. and the feeding on Sand Vetch,
Teosinte, Hundredfold Peas, etc. Now,
with such yields, the growing Of hogs is
more profitable than a silver mine.
Salzer's catalogue is full of rare
things for the farmer, gardener and cit
lien. and the editor believes that it
would pay everybody hundred-fold to
get Salzer's catalogue before purchas-
ing seeds.
