was leading a platoon of native sol

COW AND SOW FOR EVERY
FARM
Hundreds of Kershaw County farm
ers have become owners of hogs for
the first time within the past two or
three years. However, there are oth
ers who need to do likewise and this
is a special appeal not onlyjfor those
\*ho do not at this time have a brood
sow and a milk cow to get one but
also for people who are more fortu
nate to help the less fortunate neigh
bors to attain this need.
At this time hogs and pigs ar
vory cheap in Kershaw County and
even a tenant farmer without money
may arrange to get a sow pig by
swapping something that he has or
else doing a few days labor for the
man from whom he secured the pig
or hog. Likewise, there are a lot of
farmers in the county who have more
female cattle than they need for
home use and in many Instances deals
of mutual advantage may be made
between the owner of a surplus oow
or heifer and the man who needs one.
While it is true that they have made
great progress recently In this under
taking of feeding our people It is al
so true that the job In not near* com
