HEAL PORKERS Hogs Fattened on the “Avolon Farm" Bring the High Dollar and Were (FINEST BUTCHERED Lold in Buffalo and in This City—The “Avolon Hog Tone” Given. It pays to raise hogs nnd do it scientifically. A proven example of this is the record and experience of the owners of the "Avolon Farm” three miles northeast of Decatur. Last spring one hundred head of shoats averaging in J I weight just 110% pounds each wetel put on the farm in charge of the ten-| ant, James Jolly. Several weeks later they put them on tlve scientific feeding basis. | The "Avolon Farm's Hog Tone", was the medium by which they were fattened and kept in "perfect health ’. | This remedy is manufactured by th-’ Avolon Farm’s Company and it Is at present one of the best topics on the market. It prevents against decease and contains fattening qualities. Free meals, at all hours of the day, were given the pigs. Self feeder! were used, shelled corn and hominy feed tankage was fed to them. The hogs began to fatten. Two weeks ago seventy-five of the porkers were sold to the Shalem Packing Company, of Buffalo. N. Y. The price per hun--1 dred f. o. b. Buffalo, was $16.20. The seventy-five hoge averaged two hundred and twenty pounds, or just double to what they weighed a few months ago. After the killing the Shalem Packing Company, which is. one of the largest packing concerns in the east, remarked to a commission man. that "this bunch of hogs was the finest they ever killed." He also remarked that after they were dress ed it wasXeasy to distinguish them from the other hogs on the hook. The rendering of leaf lard excelled any other. Saturday, the remaining twenty-five hogs were sold to the Hoosier Packing Company of this city. They were killed Monday and weighed on an average of 221 pounds each. Mr. Schmitt, of the packing company stated yesterday that “they were as tint a hog as ever was killed or butchered ty them. They were sound and the quality could not be beaten." The raising of the hundred hogs was profitable when we consider that about $3200. was derived from the sales. The Avolon Farms Company make a specialty of pork production and have several farms in Illinois. Ohio and Indiana that are exclusively turned over to the raising of porkers. The hog tonic manufactured by them is a wonder and from the success they are having with it. it can plainly be seen that it has merit. o — DAILY MARKET REPORT EAST BUFFALO. East Buffalo, N. Y„ Aug.
