HOW A FARM BOY EARNED
AN AUTO.

In the current issue OF Farm
and Fireside a contributor tells
the story Of South Oak ta boy
of nineteen who developed a tie
mendous enthusiasm for a new
automobile but did not have the
necessary cash. Finally he and
his sister and other members OF
the family determined that they
could make enough money out OF
hogs to buy a machine and this
they set out to do. The sister
furnished the capital, consisting
of $3.50. and with this boar and
ten registered sows were pur-
chased. The story goes on as
follows,
"The next spring all of the
sows became mothers. One far
rowed, and raised ten perfect
pigs; another only two, and the
other seven varied from three to
seven. At weaving time we had
81 young pigs.
"The neighbors came to see
them, and seldom left without
leaving an order for from one to
three. We decided on a uniform
price: $40 at weaving time and
81 for each additional week we
kept them; also, our sales were
to be for cash.
"At first the pigs went slowly
enough to be discouraging, but
as threshing came on and the
farmers got money they went
fast, especially on rainy days
when the ranchers couldn
thresh.
"By September 18th we had
sold 80, and while our boar was
on exhibition at country fail
we were offered 800 for him
which we accepted.
"The total was at this time
little short Of the required
amount, but one Saturday morn
ing two men came and took ava,
five d.
"It was a happy day in ou1
family. Father and l drove tt
