THERE'S MONEY IN IT.

Considering the money in it It is
strange that more attention is not
given to raising hogs by the farmers
of this county. The hog Is an animal
that has habit of almost taking care
of himself, foraglng around farm,
and he takes on meat fast enough to
rapidly run into money. Pork has
been very high for several years. 1t
Is bound to continue to command a
high price. There is no danger of
over supplying the market, so any
farmer can take flyer In pork rails
ing and be sure OF ample returns for
his trouble and labor, and there is
not much Ofneither In handling live
pork. Az an illustration of how II
pays to raise bacon on the hOof 1t may
be stated that the Beeman brothers,
over in Pine creek raised 80 heal from
five brood sOws during the past year
These hogs averaged 200 pounds, and
were sold in the market at cents
per pound. That menasa cleanup Of
5000 in q single year from side line
on the farm that cost the farmer
little or nothing. Why it would pay
a big profit to raise potatoes. or beets.
or alfalfa and feed a band of hogs.
Hogs should be shipped out of this
county in car load lots every year, In
stead OF which there arc hardly a
sufficient number prOhrccd to supply
the local market. 1t seems like such
easy money that one is surprised that
more attention is not given to that
class of stock
