Hog Calling Lures Pig to Street, Fatal for Farmer’s Progeny
A farmer in Griswold, near Council Bluffs, reports a hog on a street corner responded to calls from a radio set and a cellar, charging from the truck to reach imagined corn and mash. The 260 pound Duroc Jersey hog died after crashing to the pavement. The farmer filed a claim with the Pottawattamie county board for the loss, blaming the hog’s demise on the “embryo hog culler.” Separately, Grace Episcopal Church in Charles City, Iowa, has engaged Rev. J. G. Creed to serve as rector, with services to begin Sunday.
