HOG RAISING IN PANHANDLE.

Some Of our noighborlng cxchang

iect Of hog raising for profit In Tn,
Panhandle, Tho plaInyiew News o

article on this line, showing tha
hogs arc being raised most profit

that it is not well for stocllmen &c
give all Of their attention to the rails
ing of any one class OF stocl, but that
diversified stock raising is the most
profitable for the farmer.
That has been the observation of
tho oidlor Of the Panhandle In Iowa
and Illinois for many years. To do
yoto ones entire time and energies
to the raising OF one class of stock.
to the exclusion OF all others, will
sometimes pay but the raiser Is de-
pendent on the market for that class
OF stock solely then by raising
cattle, hogs horses ana sheep, the
farmer always has something to turn
off on which the market is the best,
and he Is able to hold his other stock

We cannot SEQ why the raising Of
an classes Of stock will not pay in
this country and tho best of each
kind always pays for It costs no more
to raise a thoroughbred than scrub.
at any time. We have witnessed
hogs raise the mortgages from Iowa
and Illinois farms. We have seen
a small flock Of sheep raised ON the
farm in connection with other stock
and farming, return more profit by
far to the farmer than the same in
vcstmcnt in any other class of stock,
and at a time Of year when the farm
or needs money and has nothing else
to raise it with.
We can see no reason why diver
silicd farming and stock raising is
not the most profitable for the PAN
handle farmer as well as the farmers.
of the eastern and northern states
There are some of the farmers of
this locality who are preparing to go
into the hog raising industry in the
right way, by buying the foundations
for their herds OF pure bred and
registered stock It costs a little
money in the start but watch those
farmers for few years, and see
what the results Viii be, 1t will
cost them no more to raise thcir
hogs than it would an inferior class
of stock, but they will got far bet-I
ter results, There is no reason why
farmers should not have
fine hogs, a small flock of sheep tot
clear up the weeds and raise a span
Of colts for each year from good
team of brood mares, which do the
work of the farm at the same time.
The farmer who goes about planning
for the future in the Panhandle in
this way on the cheap lands to be
secured here, will be rich man
in few years. He will make money
off his farm, and the natural and
sure rise in the value, Of his land,
will make him rich in few years.
