Two young sows Chester Whites
on tho tarm of W. P. Rhoadarmor, in
Grant precinct, recently gave birth to
twenty-nine nice little .piggies. The
mothers were confined in tho same pen
and their farrowing took place the same
night, so that Mr. Rhoadarmer is unable
to tell the proper number to accredit to
each mother. But when he looked in
tho pen ho found twenty-nine, and thoy
are at this writing all alive and doing
fine. At this rate of progression it
would take but a short time for a far
mer to havo a herd as large as he de
sired. And it would be going somo, too,
with hogs bringing about seven cents a
pound liye weight. Lexington Pioneer.
