Dogs and Hogs
~
Tomorrow the city ordinance against dogs and hogs will be enforced by the city marshal. The hogs must be kept from running at large or it will take money to get them out of the pound. Male “dogs” are taxed $2 per head, and female “dogs” $5, and the tax must be paid; otherwise they will be poisoned and made into sausage.
