HOG CONTROL
A Patent Study of Ringers, Holders, Snouters &
Jewelry
by Onie Sims
The paperback book is very informative and is jam packed
with great hog tool and patent illustrations. Who knew there were so
many ways to give a pig a ring? This book is a must have for anyone
who grew up on a farm raising hogs or for anyone who simply loves early
farming tool history. Onie is an Old Tool Swap Meet regular and will
have copies of his book for sale at upcoming events.
