The family boar, the pig, wild deer
and occasionally game birds. like the
imported pheaSants, appear on the list
OF garden marauders, but not until the
other day have we seen the swapping
turtle, known to every boy who fishes
for buliheads, put in this list. A Mis-
sisSippi valley farmer noticed that
something was raising hob with his
tomato patch. He set a watch one
night end found that eight or ten big
swapping turtles came out Of the near

his big juicy tomatoes. He also found
that they had been going from these

bage patch. lit would seem about time
for him to negotiate with some city
cafe for soup stock.
