enterprise. Spring pigs nn'.i ?a the\ .

Their hogs get fat at a tune when pork
is the cheapest, for the reason that at
this season ol the year all r urplus meats
and poultry are being crowded on Lite

of hogs a field where there sire
shade trees; and if there are none,
creel temporary sheds for them to lie

spring in which they can coo) themselves
and cool their bodies with mud
