LITTLE PIGS.
Or big pigs should have a feed
that will produce bone, muscle and
fat. You want the little fellows to
grow and mature quickly, the older
ones to keep strong and vigorous. In
order to do this they should both
have a feed that is rich in food val
ues, such a feed is sold by J. W.
HARE, the Feed Man and some of
the largest feeders in the county are
using his flour white Middlings for
this purpose. It sells for $1.35 per
hundred and is better adapted to the
feeding of hogs than some of the
higher priced feeds. Comes in hun
