HOG BUSINESS
To BE FEATURE
At NEW FARM
Local Men to Supply
Local Demand

Wills Brougher and Morris Ray
craft have decided to put their
property north of town into I'M
mediate use. Hog culture is to be
tried out and arrangements along
this line are now under way. They
have figured that between alfalfa,
spuds and grain, which are readily
grown on the property that the rais-
ing of porkers on a big scale is a
paying proposition.
There is no question about being
able to raise the feed for the pigs,
as this was demonstrated during the
past summer. when good crops were
taken from the newy plowed and
cleared fields. When this was clear
ly determined the plan OF extensive
hog raising was decided upon and
work is now under way to start the
( industry.
The fact that this section cannot
supply the demand is sufficient 70
ers are constantly in the field and
porkers bring good and steady
price. The fields about the hot
s,1irgs will be fenced for this class
ot animal industry and the Brougher
farm will be planted to feed for the
animals. It is to be run on modern
lires in every particular and should
result in good profits the first sea-
