PIGS BORN WITH TUSKS,
They Thrive, Although Owner Breaks
Off the Protuberances

Lumberton, N. CT. G. Bundy re-
ported litter of pigs at his place all
born with tusks about three-quarters
of an inch long. There were eleven
pigs in the litter, and every one had
tusks. from two to three on each side.
Mr.. Bundy broke off the tucks with a
pair of pliers, and the pigs are doing
well. In every other way the pigs are
perfectly normal.
Some account for this unusual occur
rence-though similar occurrences have
been reported during the past few
years-by crossing breeds, though that
seems to be just Guesswork.
