N. C, farmers fatlen their hogs upon corn.
Corn of itself, in p. raw state, has been disco v.
ered to produce Coslivenessi and fever, after
lho animal has fed on that alone a few weeks.
To avoid these bad' effects, some have let
their hogs run at, large or in extensive j
7ure;ioget green roots, . ecc. Tii'n helps
young hogs to glow, while they increase but
little in fat. . Others have the corn tnde into
