==========

Monsanto Co. helped pay for a demonstration in favor of 
genetically modified organisms in Washington, D.C., 
according to a published report. About 100 members of a 
Baptist church got a check from the biotech giant, an 
organizer of the protest said.

Scientists say they've found a way to genetically alter 
young hogs so they grow much faster and larger than normal 
swine, as reported nationally this week. Less noticed was a 
report about a new hog-production system that promises 
tastier pork, less damage to the environment and the 
potential for greater profits among independent farmers. 
That system would eschew modern factory farms.
