Fattening Hogs On Horse Flesh.

Published in The Lake County Independent, Libertyville, Illinois on December 21, 1894.

     P. W. Schenck, a New York banker who has interests in Montana, told of a rancher buying 1,000 range horses in Fergus County, Montana, for $3 a head. He says that the man who bought them slaughtered them, after which he boiled the meat in a huge caldron and used it to feed hogs. He claims that the food produces better effects than the same amount invested in corn.
