GEORGIA HOG WILL PLAY HIS
PART IN WORLD WAR

Atlanta, Ga, June 14.-Where are
now the scepters of the Hindu and
the Moor?
Thus inquiries writer who points
out the fact that eaters of the meat of
the hog now rule the earth, while
those races which cast him out as be-
ing unclean have long since passed
from power.
And the Georgia hog, as increasing
statistics show, is becoming more and
more an important factor in the deve1-
opment of the agriculture of the state.
Fed on velvet beans. peanuts or mo-
lasses, he will turn his flesh into mo-
ney faster than any other stock the
farmer can raise He is hardy, heal
thy, prolific and self-reliant.
On the farms of America will be de-
cided the outcome of the war, and in
this decision the hog, the Georgia hog,
will play an important part.
