The Moore county razor back
hog has been made the butt of
jokesfor years. But he is not to
be sneezed at or laughed out OF
his usefulness in these days when
old North Carolina hams are
worth almost their weight in
gold and the prices Of less choice
parts of the bog is nearly beyond
the reach Of moderate means. Be-
cause of the razorback's plenti- :
fulness down in Moore county
it is said that the people who can
not afford to buy hog meat at
prevailing prices are successfully
securing their winter supply OF
bacon by hunting the wild hog
in the swamps. One old lady set
q trap and caught two, one OF
them q 150.pounder, and now
she has in prospect a winter sup
ply Of juicy bacon at Q nominal
coet. We protest against any
more scurrilous jokes at the ex-
s. ~
