But Sow is the bqst time to hatch Hoiulans and

“CHAMPION” HOG RINGER, RINGS, and HOLDER. 
The only Ring invented that will effectually prevent Hogs from Rooting. Be¬ 
ing a Double Ring, and having no sharp points in the flesh, it does not cause ir¬ 
ritation or soreness, as in other Rings. The smooth part of the wire being in the 
nose, it heals rapidly. One of our rings being equal to two or three of any other 
ring, makes-this ring cheaper than the cheapest. Time and money saved in using 
the Champion. One operation, and the work is done. 
Price of Hog Ringer, 75c. each ; Coppei’ecl Rings, 50c. per 100 ( 
Tinned Hog Rings, 80c. per IOO ; Hog Holder, 75c. each.
