AS to how wide to make the chute,
mine is about two feet, with a plank on
one side, so as to close the balance of
end of wagon bed, to keep small pigs
from getting out. The end at the wagon
should be just as high as the bottom of
the wagon bed.
The cut represents one of the most
convenient and labor-saving imple-
ments 1 ever used. This is an invention
of my own, and 1 never saw one just
like it. One man or boy can load from
little pigs up to 500 or 60O-pound hogs
and never lift pound or dig a Wheel
pit or take off a hind wheel. 1 have
used this device for years, and my neigh
bors come and borrow it, and all praise
it's merits. Any greenhorn in one or two
hours can make one. For the upright
posts use scantling two by four inches.
and for the sides scantling one by four
inches. The cut shows it so plain it
needs no detail. / took two six-inch
pulleys, put one on the outside of each
front post at the foot, simply passing a.
one-half-inch bolt through the foot of
the post and pulley. then take hold
just like wheelbarrow and move it
where l please. For the incline floor I
use one by ten scantling, placing top
one on first; then it forms foothold.-
