was going to take care of it and when
it got to be a big hog, would sell it
and have ''lots of money"
From time to time during the sum-
mer, Johnny took great pride in
showing his pig, watching it eat, and
keeping it clean. Three times a day
he would strut like a little man out
to the pen, carrying skim milk and
an armful corn, and try to act and
talk like a full-grown farmer. AS the
summer progressed he enlarged the
pen giving his pet some extra pasture
and quite often would gather green
vegetation for it. On one occasion
he stated that next year he was going
to buy two or three pigs with his
money and ask papa to rent him a
piece of ground Sc that he could raise
his own corn, and concluded by say
ing that he ''was going to be a far
mer and raise hogs and get rich"
When the pig was ten months old,
Johnny's father sold his hogs, includ-
ing %Johnny's. Johnny was very proud
of his pig and declared it would
weigh lots more than any hog on the
place. The following Saturday they
were delivered at the station, and
the doctor, anxious to know how
much Johnny's pig weighed because
of the careful attention it had re-
ceived, went to see the weighing.
When the hogs were being driven on
the scales Johnny said: Papa, aren't
you going to weigh my pig separate
ly?" The father in a cold way said
my pig Whose corn fed that pig?
Get out of the way don't bother me-"
And Johnny's pig was weighed with
the others. Johnny was dumb. His
lip quivered, the tears rolled down
cheeks, and he walked away
broken-hearted and discouraged.
The mex year Johnny did not raise
a pig, for all incentive was taken
away; all his hopes and dreams were
blasted. Today the old farm where
Johnny lived is d%ilapidated and I'M
productive. John is not a farmer, but
a worthless, shiftless individual liv-
ng in town. His ambition was
the day his pig was sold.
What might not Johnny have become
lad his father taken him into part
lership the day the pig was sold?
