EDIT: changed title to reflect that the original place saying the quote was the Hog Farm Management magazine rather than the Washington Post. The photo itself is from an article in the Washington post

This title is a bit misleading, this isn’t the Washington post saying this, they are just reporting a hog farm manager having said this in 1976

Updated the title to clarify. Wasn't a random hog farm manager, Hog Farm Management is a magazine read by hog farmers.

Here's the actual magazine page. It's not as readable so I used an article from the Washington Post talking about that:
