138 19th Century Pigs - Greasng the Way to the Future
To Market to market to buy a fat pig
Home again home again jiggety jig...
But how did those pigs get to market in the first place?
On their own 4 feet! That's right, there's more than one way to concentrate corn down for better transport and not all of it is Bourbon / Corn Whiskey.
Also learn about how early mechanical America only kept moving due to the presence of pigs.
Big contributions to the script from Mark Essig's _Lesser Beasts_
Be sure to look up the Canadian Super Pigs... and the problem they are.
