SETTLE FOR HOGS
In the past several weeks I have
lost a number of head of hogs and
have located the cause of their loss.
Suspecting the reason for their dis
appearance I had the gate to the
hog yard locked and found later that
parlies had stuck the hogs, dragged
them to the gate, thrown them over
and then taken them to a waiting
truck or car. The parties who have
been taking the hogs are known and
they can avoid a great deal of
trouble by coming in and settling
for the hogs that have been killed
and taken.
