recent developments Of warfare which

production has hitherto been CON
fined TO the corn growing states,
but there il no reason why hogs
should not be raised in this locality.
We have the climate. the alfalfa pas
turc. and corn also does well as a
rule, although at the prevailing
price OF hogs. where there Is plenty
of alfalfa pasture. grain can be pur-
chased and fed at a profit.
