The first litter of pigs to be sold this year In the state ton litter contest of the Future Farmers of America, were sold yesterday at Ogdeu. These pigs belonged to Elmer Ward, of Willard, who Is a member of the Future Farmers organization at the Box Elder high school. Vernal Willie and Noal Bennion, instructors, accompanied Mr. Ward to Ogden. There were 9 pigs in this litter. They weighed 1854 pounds, or an average of 206 pounds each. These pigs were sold for $8.10 a hundred weight, which was the highest price paid on the market yesterday. The pigs were spld at five months of age. In past years, they have always been sold ' at six months of age. From last years experience, it was found that they were too large to command the highest price, so the contest runs for five months this year. On this basis, it is necessary for the pigs to weigh 1750 pounds, which is thought to be equal to 2(XX pounds at six months of age. Mr. Ward has another litter of pigs which will be five months of age in August, and will be sold in the ton litter auction Bale to be held at Ogden. During the past year,1' Mr. Ward has been president of the state organization of Future Farmers of America, and last fall at Kansas City he was elected to the degree of American farmer, the only boy in the State of.
