As soon as alfalfa was well established the number and breeds of hogs increased. H. J. Stillings chose the big type Poland China on his homestead of 40 actes in 1909 and continued in the business 20 years. He advertised and sold pure bred types throughout the Pacific coast including Alaska, and became widely known among hog breeders for the high grade of his type of breeding. C. P. Adams, often known as Pig Adams, and C. C. Mason turned their attention to the red type. They each had from ten to 20 purebred sows and produced from 160 to 200 pigs a year. They exhibited five suc cessive years at the state fair and one year took 55 percent of the places, and 65 percent of the pre mium money. One year Mason took five of the eight champions and the next year three of the eight champion awards. It was at the state fair that their hogs were infected with cholera and Adams lost nearly every hog he had, and Mason his best animals. This was the only cholera epidemic ex perienced here. George Strohm was for many years a heavy producer of market hogs. He shipped 35 cars to Port land and at the Pacific Interna tional Livestock Show, won over 11200 in prizes.
