TO HOLD COMBINED SALE
OF P0LAND-CHlNA HOGS

Plans were made at the meeting
of the Poland-China Hog Breeders
association Saturday for a sale of

together a majority of the breeders
who have breeding stock to cOnsiga
to the September sale. Pres't Horace
Longley and Leo Van Hess. secre-
tary, are working out the plans for
this initial cSnbined sale.
The offerings OF the ST. Joseph
County association are TO be sub
stantially strengthened by consign-
ments of hogs from the herds Of
Charles Relish and T. II. Jackson,
who heretofore have held their own
sales They will however, pool their
interests this fall with the other
breeders which cannot but help con-
tribute very materially TO the sue
cess + the affair Their experience
in holding sales and in fitting hogs
for the ring will be a valuable as
set 10 the other breeders.
