MORE MEAT MAKERS
FEWER RAZOR BACKS
"Piney-WoOds Rooter" is Civ.
ing Way to Better Bred
Members of Hog Tribe

The ungainly, improbable hog
known as the razor-back Is fast giyy
ing way in South Carolina to a bet
ter type-a safety type that insures
reasonable profits from reasonable
care. The well bred hog far exceeds
the razor-bacS in both meat and pig
production and modern farming con-
ditions require that these two factors
be carefully considered when hogs
are being selected. Good farming
mas no place for the razor-back, be-
cause good farming is first of all
economical.
Market hogs are storehouses in
which grain, forage, and other feeds
are stored up in the form of meat.
The small granary is of comparative
iy little value; the profits are in
those having at least reasonable ca
paclty. The raZor-back is a "store.
house with very little capacity and
can not make rapid gains. On the
other hand, pig Of any of the pop.
ular breeds is capable of attaining A
weight &C from $50 to $50 pounds at
nine to twelve months old; indeed,
such weights are not unusual in the
Corn Belt
The we'll bred hog far outclasses
the razor-back i'll regularity Of breed.
Ing and ability to produce large lit.
ters OF pigs. This is one of the most
important points to be considered in
hog-raising.
Finally, look at this picture of q
typical razor-back and then call to
mind the appearance of any well-bred
hog. The differences are so striking
that comparison seems absurd.

A typical "7iney-woods rooter" ono
year old. The kind of hog not to
have. 1t is less common in South
Carolina than it once was.
However. one need not begin with
an entire herd of pure bred animals
in order to succeed with hogs. The
logical method is 10 use pure bred
sires-whether breeding hogs or
horses or cattle-and TO grade up the
herd at minimum cost. Decide on the
breed Of hogs you desire to raise, Sc.
lecting from the popular breeds; use
only pure bred boars OF this breed,
sticking to the breed chosen, and at
the same time avoiding inbreeding;
give reasonable care in feeding and
general management. If these things
are done, you may expect the hogs to
respond by bringing In steady profits.

Have you forgotten about that brok-
en- piece, lost bolt, or loose nut on ono
or the implements that you intended
attending to during winter? There Is
still plenty OF time for such things.
but 1t will be unwise to let them wait
until the spring rush Of work begins
and hurry calls for the machinery
come with 1t. Remember the Stitch
In time and use the cold rainy days
for overhauling broken implements
and sharpening dull blades.
Why wait until your oats are ready
to cut before pulling out your binder
and finding that there is new piece
to be ordered? This may cost you a
week or two OF valuable time and af.
ter you have waited impatiently
through several days .. fine weather.
1t Is as likely as not that rain will be-
gin to fall When you order repairs
at such time, you will find that 9th.
ers are doing likewise. The manufac-
turers are rushed with orders and the
delay is often such that you are driven

After inspecting an implement,

years. For painting, there is nothing
better than red lead and linseed OIL

Spent 5000 III Year
In Hunt for Relief
Father Tells Of Terrible Suffering
His Daughter Endured
ALL TREATMENT FAILED
Says She Had 200 Convulsions-
Tanlac Almost Restored
Health in Two Weeks

just two an q half bottles of
Tanlac have banished in three
(3) weeks the stomach trouble
with which Mrs. Mary G.. Ker.
rels, OF 16 Hammett St., Ander-
son, s. o., suffered and which,
during the proceeding eleven
t1l) months had caused her to
have at least two hundred (2OO)
.convulsions, said her father, q.
w. Hale, of 1S Hammett st..
Anderson.
Mr.. Hale said he, with others,
had laid out Mrs. Kernels body
at least two hundred (2OO) times
during the past eleven (1D
months, each time thinking her
dead. II hoped she really was
was dead" he said, $50 she
would not have to longer endure
that awful suffering"
Mr.. Hale's statement follows,
and is one of the most marvellous
that has yet come to the atten-
tion of the Tanlac representa-
tive:
For five years my daughter,
Mrs. Mary G. Kernels, suffered
after eating the most severe at
tacks of indigestion. We had
tried every way to find relief for
suffering, but without success.
She had even been under the
knife at hospital. During the
past year we spent at least six
hundred (6OO) dollars for doctrs'
bills for her, but Tanlac was the
only medicine which gave her
relief. Tanlac is the greatest
medicine on earth.
Her suffering was so intense
and so terrible that it caused
her to go into a kind of convul-
sion. We had laid her out,
thinking she was dead at least
two hundred (2OO) times in the
past eleven months. Scores of
times when she was laid out T
hoped she really was dead, so
she would not have to longer en-
dure that awful suffering.
But she was relieved in just
two (2) weeks by Tanlac, and
now. fifteen (15) days after she
began taking it, she is up and
goes out visiting, though she
had been confined to her bed six
10 weeks before she began TAX
ng Tan]ac."
Mrs. Kernels, who lives at 16
dammett ST., said: 81 suffered
rom chronic stomach trouble,
md steadily became worse de-
spite all treatment. Last sum-
ner l was twice operated on
without getting relief. wss
old my case was hopeless, but l
began taking Tan.ac and the
'ery first dose decreased the in
;ensity of those awful attacks
which followed each meal. II
lave taken two and a half (2h)
'ottles of Tanlac, and have gain.
