THEY’RE HOG RAISING CHAMPIONS IDA GROVE, IOWA — George and Karl Hoffman (left to right above), brothers of Ida County, Iowa, are America's undisputed hog raising champions. At the recent Chicago Market Fat Stock Compe tition, the wartime edition of the world famous International Live Stock Exposition, they won all firsts in the hog carlot division, and the Grand Championship over all breeds with the 260 pound Berk shire« shown above. Tne Hoffmans had twice previously won the International Carlot championship in 193# and 1941, but never before had anyone won all firsts. The brother«' farms near here look not unlike thousands of other farms of the state. No special hog raising equipment is used. AU of the Hoffmans' hogs are pur« bred Berkshire».
