Who gets the W hole hog? The Co opera
tive Pork Raisers' association of Els
worth, Maine, U. S. A., has donated pig
to the united war work fund. The CO.
operative Pork Raisers' ASSOCIATION is in
its infancy; in fact, very few peo-
pie in Ellsworth ever heard of it
before 1t didn't have much money
to give, SO it gave one of its best
pigs, high bred stock that it was depend
ing upon to make its piggery famous.
But "Patriotism before Pigs" is their
motto, so into the general fund went the
pig. The treasurer OF the fund objected
wnen the pig was turned in along with
| other small change so it was up to the
| committee to dispose of it. Somebody
will get the whole hog at the dance to-
| morrow evening.
