New radiator question

I just bought a new radiator for my truck on eBay. It is new and looks just like my current one except that it has two small outlets on the bottom of it while my current one does not. Should I plug them individually or should I just loop a hose from one to the other? What are they for?

Thanks for the input, thats what I thought. Is there anything wrong with just hooking them together with a hose?

no other than the hose might get snagged on something... there is no fluid running through it
