Hogs From the Richfeld Tract
Large Acreage Devoted to This Important CropValue
of Foods In Producing Best Results-ThOusands
of Dollars Worth to Sell This Year.

Quet Johnson returned the last
of last week from Portland, where
he had gone with carload Of hogs
from his ranch. Prices have gone
off little since Byrne Bros. receiv-
ed the record price for years, only
three weeks ago; but Mr.. Johnson
is still well satisfied with what he
received.
1t is an important bit of informa-
ton, from one who knows what he
is saying in regard to live stock,
when Mr.. Johnson says that he be-
iieves every pound of good grain
raised on the tract should be worth
two cents if fed to hogs in connec-
zion with alfalfa and other pasture
crops. The present prices for hcgs
bid fair to continue for a long time
with comparatively little variation;
there may be as many hogs sold
above the present price as below it
Tor year or two, or even longer.
Instead of selling grain and pota-
toes at low prices, Mr.. Johnson be-

DUCK-SHOOTING.
Season Opens Monday, With A
Good Supply of Birds.

The season fer wild ducks opens
September 1st.
There are said to be more ducks
than usual along the canals and
the river, so that some good shoot
ing is assured.
But every shooter had better take
note Of this fact
The new federal law prescribes a
penalty for any one to shoot ducks
or other migratory wild birds before
sunrise or after sunset of any day.
And the U. S. is likely to have out
lot of spoilers to see that the law
is enforced or the penalty exacted.
Save yourself a nasty mixup with
Uncle Sam by not shooting du> ks
except by broad daylight, when the
sun is shiningl And any one to
whom this information is new or
valuable may bring to the Recorder
office one fat duck apiece for the
information.
The Richfield recorder. (Richfield, Idaho) 1909-1931, 1913-08-28

lieves that they can be fed to pay
at least twice as much money to the
grower 1t may be recalled that
Byrne Bros, who fed large guam
titles of potatoes to hogs last win
ter, estimated that they were worth
close to so cents per 100 pounds for
fattening hogs. Used with a lit.le
grain, plenty of good clean alfalfa,
both as pasture and as hay in win
ter, hogs can be raised here for very
little money; SO as to pay a gilt
edged profit TO the farmer every
time
1t is estimated that several car
loads of hogs will be shipped out
from here this year-whereas here
tofore there has hardly been a hog
sent out to exchange for money. AS
hogs are now to be found on prac-
tically every farm on the tract,
whereas two years ago not more
than one farm in five had even. a
start OF hogs, it will be easy to
predict prosperity of a very real
sort in the near future.

40 Miles of Good New Roads
That Much Already Constructed BY Rchfeld Commis

are worth a sacrifice!
Engineer Horniman is getting his

the construction crews again soon---
possibly next week. About 40 miles is
already graded, more or less complete

after the first rain. tbs to check up
