Jim - Give your head a shake !! Have you ever been around pigs??? If such a photo ever existed, it would have to have been staged for some PETA type weirdo group. Ever try to make a hog do anything it didn't want to do, even once,let alone several times a day, if it needed water. So help me, people who have NO FARM EXPERIENCE seem to take up these "animal rights","factory farms" rant. Have you ever seen or heard an "Expert Farmer" interviewed or even acknowleged. It seems that people ,from every other profession on earth and have never been near a farm, are experts on raising animals or crops. Sorry for this rant, (although I shouldn't be),but my son now has to deal with an organization that insists it has the "right" to inspect his customer's farms to "approve" the way their animals are raised. Conversely,how would these "experts" react if a farmer showed up at their doorstep insisting he had the right to inspect their home or businesses. My son has spent 15yrs developing a very successful retail/wholesale meat business based on the absolute best cuts and prepared meats derived from only small farm production. The key here is to define "small" farms. One just cannot survive to-day on the production of larger animals from a 100ac farm, but that doesn't mean that larger farmers don't care any less for the welfare of their animals. An animal will simply not gain well if placed under daily stress. Sorry for the long post, but this subject just pushes all my buttons!!

The colony remained far from self-supporting and it was not until the early 1800's that things started to improve. Free settlers started to arrive, they followed the explorers across the mountains and where land was suitable set up farms. T
