' MR. REID WRITES OF tX>J'NTY;H OPPORTC.MTY ^ V w • v - The article from the pen of- 8. L. Reid, formerly executive secretary of the Southern Carolina Associa tion, and now agricultural agent for the Seaboard railroad,' is well written and to the point. What he ■ays aa to the suitability 6f rtbie county for a “July crop of hogs” ip worth ponderihg over. The opinion we have heard erfbrensed by so ntanv that there #IU soon be a glut of the market If- everybody, goes into the.pure bred hog business in the near future is hot well found ed, and for -the very good rea- son thpt * they cannot, get thi- breeding stock.; It will be eight to ten years’ before it would be possi- " ble to supply , every farmer who might wish to get into this business “ *ad even if it were^trife, and there should b e 'no sale for theke well-bred hogs for breeding purposes, it 1 equally true that a puce bred hog will make a bigger profit as meat / hog. Take the Dutoc. for instance, -r he will weigh ipbre and grotr faster on the same amount of food the first year than a scrub--hog «^ll in two -years. In other words produce , • , • v ' j \ a specified amount of bacon and lard, the Duroc will /require , not .more than half the time Jo perfi the Job, that la rfe^Utred by acru stock. ^So,-there can be no reason Why as many as possible should not get into the gamy and at once v MrS Reid will need, a/i increasing amount ^ of .pigs for his work, and he says he will gladly bi^y them from Colleton county fatme/s If they will grow the kind he want*.- What Mr. field is doing othe/s will gladly do. government will remain ,in the hands of our office hoddey*. and i,, these officeholders arc to be electetl I.‘ ’■ ^ ■^ an rfl ° l: at 0r near . ] home plying one of the oddest an| [has State »nd National laws—|he mem- „.,v * .. , _ every patron of the schobl, anr’ Cole L.
