PIG IN PERAMBULATOR
The taking of a pig to market in a perambulator is the latest outcome of the petrol restrictions in Invercargill. Two Grassmere women arrived at the abattoirs pushing a pram out of which the head of a 1001b. porker was protruding from a sack. Because of the rigid petrol restrictions the women had evidently found difficulty in arranging transport, and, rather than forfeit payment for the pig, they did the next best thing by using this novel means of transport.
