Chicago, Ill.

Dear Prof. Cottrell:-Prof Balls
has just returned to the Office from
visit to Dodson and makes the fol-
lowing report on the work done by
Otis Woods, a pupil Of the Dodson
Agricultural School and member of
the boys hog club. The record that
this boy has made will, perhaps, serve
as an incentive to other boys and
girls belonging to the clubs.
On last year this boy bought gilt
for ten dollars. He raised his pig
according to instructions and exhibit
ed her at both the parish and State
fairs. At Dodson, where the parish
fair was held, he won sweepstakes
over both men and boys. He ex-
hibited his pig along with Sc others
from different parts of the State and
won first prize. At both fairs he won
sixty-five dollass in cash. He was
offered at this time seventy dollars
for his gilt. Since that time out Of
one litter he has sold seventy dollars
and fifty cents worth of registered
pigs. He has left on hand out of
the litter, two pigs worth ten dollars
each.
In addition to the premiums he
received a. the fairs he has received
two pigs from the Fort Worth Stock
Yards worth TWENTY-FIVE dollars.
Thus, making two hundred fifty -seven
dollars and fifty cents gross.
Prof Horton, the agriculturist at
the Dodson Agricultural School has
nineteen boys who own registered
pigs. Prof. Horton has q large hog
club enrolled in VIM parish.
Yours very truly,
