Sow

A huge bronze sow, so lifelike that it seemed to snuffle, was set up at Leuenberg, last week, upon an imposing pediment.

Five years ago Brunhilde, the able sow in whose likeness the bronze was cast, nuzzled into a salt deposit in her master's yard. The deposit, exploited, has proved to be one of the richest table salt mines in Germany.

Brunhilde, who died recently from gorging incontinently the swill lavished upon her by a grateful municipality, was thus honored and immortalized in bronze last week.
