Napoleon the Pig

Remembering Boxer: A Martyr

“Napoleon is always right”
Fellow comrades, and members of our glorious
farm, it is with a heavy heart that I give you this
news, for our dear comrade Boxer the horse has
passed away in the line of duty. It should be
remembered that even in his final moments, he
continued working towards the success of our
glorious establishment – by building the
windmill. Boxer was a selfless and hardworking
comrade, a hero that will remain in our hearts
and in the glorious history of Animal farm.
    Boxer was a model member of Animal Farm.
Hardworking, loyal to Animalism, and obedient.
Collectively, we shall mourn the loss of Boxer, a
model worker greatly. Even before the Great
Revolution, he was loyal to the concept of
Animalism, which we stand by today. He helped
spread the Animalist ideals, never questioning
the righteousness of our glorious principles, and
always worked harder than anyone else for the
sake of our farm. He toiled tirelessly, always

when his health deteriorated from his honourable
battle wounds for he firmly believed in

Snowball Revealed
Is the fugitive a spy for the Human Jones?
Once an esteemed co-leader of Animal
Farm, Snowball has been revealed to be a
dangerous and dastardly criminal. Newly
discovered documents have revealed that
the villain has committed various crimes
even before the Rebellion! During a
meeting of the farm to discuss future of
building a windmill, a pack of Comrade
Napoleon’s dogs expelled Snowball from
the farm.
‘Napoleon had never in reality been
opposed to the windmill. On the contrary,
it was he who had advocated it in the
beginning,’ says Squealer, ‘the plan
which Snowball had drawn on the floor
of the incubator shed had actually been
stolen from among Napoleon’s papers.’
Almost a year later, the windmill
collapsed under very suspicious
circumstances. Afterall, how could a
structure reinforced with the best
technology and checked to be 450% more
stable than any windmill ever built
collapse by pure accident? It was
revealed that Snowball is responsible for
the incident.

only Napoleon has yet again come up
with the most brilliant idea. Regarding
The Swine Times Issue #10
Four days ago, Squealer announced that
Snowball had sold himself to Frederick of
Pinchfield Farm and was plotting to
attack and steal Animal Farm. Another
discovery was found in old documents
written by Snowball himself that were
left behind after his expulsion. ‘We had
thought that Snowball’s rebellion was
caused simply by his vanity and ambition.
But we were wrong, comrades,’
Squealer said, ‘Do you know what the
real reason was? Snowball was in league
with Jones from the very start! Did we
not see for ourselves how he attempted —
fortunately without success — to get us
defeated and destroyed at the Battle of the
Cowshed?’
The plot of the devious Snowball has
clearly been to help Jones in defeating us
in the Battle of the Cowshed from the
start, which thankfully never happened
due to Comrade Napoleon’s bravery.
Snowball then attempted to sabotage us Picture Caption: The fugitive Snowball last seen

Puppy Education
The Future Generation of Animal Farm

Comrade Napoleom
As many of you know, Bluebell and
Jessie’s puppies are receiving private
education for free courtesy of our selfless
leader Napoleon. Among his many good
qualities, Napoleon firmly believes in the
benefits of a good children for youngsters.
By sacrificing his private hours,
Comrade Napoleon has taken upon the
responsibility of educating the young
puppies. The key principles of loyalty and
discipline are being taught to the puppies
through fun and creative ways that will
accompany the puppies in their bright
futures
As a lenient individual, Comrade Design by: Kosher the Pig
Napoleon frequently organizes field trips
and other enjoyable activities for the
puppies. Through a survey conducted by
our beloved comrade Squealer, it was
shown that the puppies have a 1-hour
nap time at noon every day and meals
consisting of at least 7 different kinds of
nutritious and scrumptious foodstuffs.
Also, according to comrade Squealer:
“The puppies are living in such a safe,
fun and educational environment that I
might even be a little jealous of them! I
truly applaud and commend Comrade
Napoleon on his impeccably thoughtful
methods of education and his kind,
giving heart.”
When the puppies grow up, they will
undoubtedly become valuable,
hardworking members of our
community, protecting us against threats
such as the vile Snowball. Afterall, how
could any less be expected of the
students if Napoleon himself?

More Food for More Work

Hunger is not the answer to a successful farm
Dear comrades of Animal Farm. Are you not tired of lazy
workers who do not work and toil as much as you do getting
the same amount of food rations as you? For our most
hardworking comrades, which definitely includes YOU as you
are clever to read this highly distinguished paper, I propose a
bonus in rations to reward you for your service and hard work
on the behalf of our wonderful farm. Of course, many of our
clever readers might be wondering why this system was not in
use in earlier times. Well, let me tell you, dear readers, it is all
because of that scoundrel Snowballs ideas before his expulsion
and the revelation that he is a spy for humans.
Page 3
Before his expulsion, the dastardly Snowball proposed the
idea of equal rationing for all. According to none other than
Old Major, “We should always feed those that are loyal
workers more”. So, from now on, a new system shall be in
place when it comes to rationing. For every extra field plowed,
every extra 5 eggs laid, or every extra gallon of milk produced,
deserving comrades will receive a bounteous bonus in rations
of 1apple per week. The limit on eating apples is also beneficial
according to science as any animal that is not a pig will become
smarter with 1 apple per week but become very ill if more than
1 apple is consumed. Afterall, the health of our comrades is
crucial.
