Over 600 hogs have been found within the city limits of Charlotte by sanitary inspectors who went out under the direction of Dr. W.A. McPhaul, city health officer, to enforce the ordinance prohibiting the keeping of hogs within the corporate limits. Over 80 hots were found by one inspector Friday, Dr. McPhaul said.
The hogs have been ordered removed from the city by the health officer and the ordinance, which has been on the books for some time, will be rigidly enforced. The presence of hogs within the city limits is dangerous to the health of the citizens, the health officer explained.
