OHia I have made what I consider one ofthe most useful of hog farm deviceswhich I call my pig trap. It consists ofa crate made on this order: Height, 8feet; width, 32 inches, and 4 feet 6inches long. This is made very similarto a hog crate, but it has no bottom init, and both ends are made to slide upand down when desired. The top stripsare mailed lengthwise of the crate in-stead of crosswise. The trap should bemade of light lumber so that it will belight to handle. When wishing to catch any pig, throwdown a little corn and your pigs will Forty-: soon be busy. Let your customer choosehis pig, then pick up your trap, walkamong your pigs, <«id drop it over theone desired. It matters not towardwhich end the head is in the crate, aseither end will slide up and down. It isthen possible to set a crate at the endof the trap and quietly walk your piginto it. There is no hard work in theoperation, no squealing or excitement,and I believe that I can catch every pigone at a time
