A Bogalusa citizen purchased a
young pig on September q last for
$3.50, and yesterday sold the hog
for $3.50, therby making a profit
of $40 on the hog. He stated that
the hog was in the best of condition

him a cent to feed it during the six
months, only giving it the soaps
from the table.
If a man of small family can
