Hlgh Living ae Low Cost.

The Newberry Observer says: my.
3. F. Mills butchered two hogs on
Thursday that weighed $40 and $40
pounds. They were the Poland China
breed and were 1s months old. He
raised them from pise. and they did
not coet him halY as much % II he
had bought them from Tennessee.
The solution Of the high cost OF liv-
Ing Is that farmers raise their own
hog and hominy, and enough besides
to sell to their neighbors, the town
people. More and more Of them arc
doing this year bv year.

Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi,

Exhibits

Texas show cattle may be eX-
hibited at the fairs in Arkansas,
Louisiana, Mississippi and Alaba-
ma in the future.
They have been barred in the
past through fear Of tick infection
This is good news for Texas ex-
hibitors as it allows them to en-
ter their cattle in the fat stock
shows of Birmingham and Mont
gomery of which they have been
barred for a number of years.
IL has been agreed that all cat
tie will be returned to Texas, or if
sold they will be submitted to an
examination by experts in the
states where they have been exhi-
bited. Negotiations with other
states for like privilege are now
under way.
Stock raisers believe that the
entrance of Texas cattle in the
fairs of other states will do much
to stimulate the production of fine
cattle in the Southwest

Many Of the crew were entrap-

TO stay at his post.
The men obeyeyd, went to their
