SOME CLASS TO HOG
BUSINESS IN GEM STATE

That there is something to the
hog industry of Pocatello is evil
denced in recent shipments through
Pocatello. These shipments are
from all parts of the state, and
thus far the porkers are largely
consigned to coast markets.
For the first quarter of this
year, the shipments of inspected
hogs that have gone through Poca-
cello yards amount to 6S1 cars. and
on this basis of figuring it is easy
10 be seen that the year will close
on shipments of 1000 cars or bet
ter. The great alfalfa and grain
fields of the upper valley, the Twin
Falls section, American Falls dis
.rict and other parts of the state
produce the finest hog on the mark
At. and this is evidenced to consid-
erable extent in that the great pack
ing house of the Cudahy company
secured in the first quarter $50
ars of the number sent out
The Idaho farmer has appreciat-
ed the value of having bunch of
good hogs TO turn into his alfalfa
stubble after the first cutting, and
q 5 the best revenue he gets from
ne sa-m. and there is constantly
increased demand.
This year promises to be
.reat activity and development in
idaho. and along general farm in
aussry and enterprise, it is quite
interesting to note the significance
attached TO the hog end of the busi-
ness. Placing a perfectly fair estt
mate of $1,000 a car on the approx
mate shipments for 1914. and the
item of distributing s2.4OO,oO'
among the farmers for hogs alone
s no small proposition in the pros
)srity of the granger.
