A third-year member of the boys pig clubs in Arkansas sells ten of his pigs to younger club boys in his county. Paul Giles of Phillips County began livestock farming after winning a county prize for corn on upland. He used the prize money to buy two pure bred pigs to learn feeding and care as part of his club work.
In 1922 he expanded his work with his herd selling over $200 worth of pigs to the U S Department of Agriculture and buying 40 hogs for his own herd. His success inspires other club boys in the county to start pure bred hog raising using his stock.
