THE PIG BYE LAW.
(To the.Editor of the Erentrig Star.) ; t Sib, —I hare been considering the effect the new; bye:laws will 'hare 'on the price' of pork and bacon if no one is allowed to keep pigs in *^e township. Perhaps tbe J price of either may not affect our Councillors, but a good many Pfople wil| likely bare to go without; besides, it seems strange pigs are not allowed in the town* 1 ship] while stables nre right under our noses. A stable may be as great a nuisance as a pig-stye, and vice versa, not that I keep either; and a person's premises may be more injurious to health from 1 the not keeping of pigs to eat up the refuse, as from the keeping of them under regulations. I recollect reading a work which proved pure air has its own peculiar disease, so that we may hare too much of a good thing as well as a bad ; that in killing one disease we might bring in another, unless we find the medium.— lam, Ac, P-B.?-
