"Buy Bale" Plan to Relieve Cotton
Situation.

anu ciIlpiOyeS VI Tie Neu RlVeT
Valley Bank and Trust Company
have started Buy Bale"
movement in Shreveport. This
plan of helping to relieve the cot
ton situation has found favor
elsewhere. Briefly, the idea is
for each southern man or woman
who can afford to do so to pur-
chase bale of cotton, paying
therefor 10 cents per pound,
tstore it and hold it until condi-
tons adjust themselves or the
purchaser is forced to part with
his holding.
1t is one of the happy solutions
of the cotton problem growing
out of the anxiety of the south
not to sacrifice its greatest pro-
duct because consumption has
been materially lessened by the
developments of the internation-
al struggle now in progress.
| A meeting was held in Atlanta.
Ca, to launch a Buy a Bale"
movement there. Mr.. j. G.
Gredler, the progressive new
vice-president of the Red River
Valley Bank and Trust Company,
read the story of the Atlanta
gathering and the idea struck
him at once as being eminently
practical and opening up magnifi-
cent possibilities.
i A conference was held with
President ]. Homer Jordan, DIR.
John P. Scott and others associ-
ated with the bank. Mr.. Cred
ler's enthusiasm impressed them
and the plan seemed feasible.
las a result of the confer
ence," said Mr.. Gredler, THE
Red River Bank and Trust Com
pany is going to inaugurate the
Buy a Bale movement in Shreve-
port. We are beginning with
ourselves and hope the movement
will grow, so that many may
benefit from it.
Every officer and employee of
our bank, from the president
right down through to the porter.
has obligated himself to purchase
one bale of cotton, paying there
for at the rate of 10 cents per
J pound, from one of the banks
customers. That will take care
of at least seven bales. 1t is only
a beginning, but we hope that
e others will be interested and the
= movement will expand.
Our idea is to purchase the
. cotton from the small farmers,
) to whom the money will mean a
great deal. Just as soon as the
t plan was agreed upon, Mr.. Jor-
dan picked out several small pro-
e ducers, who transact business
r with the bank, to whoEl the Buy
a Bale plan will come as God
! send.
4 Fifty dollars may seem a small
: amount to the average individual
, but to the small farmer it means
, much. Besides, there is the cir
= calating value of the money.
One dollar, for instance, will pay
) a world of debt, and fifty dollars
e will, naturally, increase that cir
culating value just fifty times.
t Hence, a payment of fifty dollars
to the small planter means a

ate ability of the recipient to liq-
uidate fifty dollars of debt. The

"Buy Bale" and help the farmer.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1914-04-03

On the first lot we lost money, but
not so much, because the feed was
grown on the farm. On the subse-
quent lots we made money. There is
no need for us to tell farmers that at
cents a pound there is plenty of
money in growing hogs, provided you
grow your own hog feed, provided
you don't undertake to get rich too
fast, provided you take such care of
them that you reduce the danger from
disease to the minimum You can't
eliminate it altogether, because if hog
cholera comes into your herd, it will
kill some hogs even under the best
conditions, probably not SO fast nor
SO great a per cent of them, but it
will kill some.
Plan to Grow Feed.
The first thing is to plan how to
grow your own hog feed, because in
that case what you get is yours, bar
ring salt, turpentine, dip and other
minor things, which are almost neg
llgible so far as the cost is concerned.
IT you are to grow your own hog
iced, you must grow food adapted to
the needs Of the hog at different
ages. The pig requires albuminous
or matchmaking or f1esh-building
.eeds. The mature hog in the finish
ing process requires fat formers, car
bohydrates, of which corn is usually
the cheapest. Therefore, if you are
TO grow pork and do it successfully
and at profit, you must provide the
matchmaking feeds for the pigs and
the shotes.
Can you do it? Can you grow clio
yer? Can you grow alfalfa? If YOU
can not grow any of these, can you
grow cowpeas or soy beans? There
is not farm in our territory that is
| fit to farm that can not grow one or
the other, or two or three of these
Aesh-forming feeds. If you will grow
them and fence properly, the pigs
will harvest them. We have another
flesh-former in skim milk, of which
there is more or less on every farm.
Corn Is Fattening.
How about fattening feeds? Corn
is the thing, of course. If corn is
high and wheat cheaper than corn, as
it is in some sections of the country
now, feed wheat, feed rye, feed bar
ley, feed oats. None of these are
ordinarily as cheap or as profitably
fed as corn, but they will fill the bill.
The point is that you must grow
YOUR own hog feed, if you are to have
profits from growing hogs. We sus-
pect that some farmers who some
times buy shorts as hog feed would
do a great deal better to make their
own shorts by grinding their grain
We don't say that it does not pay to
buy feed you can't grow, for example
tankage, perhaps some oil meal OF
cottonseed meal. IF you have not in
any year been able to grow the prope'
balance, buy some of these; but the
amount you will buy in any year will
be very small if you utilize the full
capacity of your farm and your, owr
ingenuity in growing hog feed.
Then if you will take care of them
and take care of the brood sows dur
ing the winter; if you will give proper
mating; if you will feed them plenty
of clover or alfalfa hay-if you DON
have it, grow it next year-there will

any COW may be fed, and the third
week, II the cali is in good health and
growing nicely, the Change to skim
milk may be begun. Do not make the
iiils'dNe OF feeding more skim milk
~, cause the cream is removed.
Inc whole milk contains about as
llueh protein as the calf can handle.
ana when skim milk is fed in large
quantities the calf gets more than he
can use and the consequence a sick
calf is the result.
The change from whole milk TO
skim milk must be gradual; from one
malt to one and one-half pounds per
day, depending upon the size and
Vigor OF the calf. To an average calf
two weeks old, we would feed about
II pounds per day of whole milk, The
hrst day OF the third week Cor when
1t is desirable to begin the change)
the daily iced would be II pounds OF
whole milk and one pound of skim
milk; the second day 10 pounds of
whole milk and two pounds of skim
milk, and so on until the complete
change IS made. 1t is just as essen
tai to feed the skim milk warm as
the whole milk, although when the
calf gets larger and stronger, six to
ten weeks old, gradual change to
cold milk may be made.
Allow the calf a clean, airy paddock
or box stall in which to get exercise.
Give him some we'll cured hay, such
as timothy and clover, or timothy
alone, as soon as he will eat it, which
will be when he is from three to tour
Nuanlyc old A fo1fo
may be fed, but with this roughage
there is danger of the calf's eating
more than he can properly digest.
Grain may be fed as soon as he will
take it, and for this purpose a mix
ture of bran and crushed oats or
ed oats alone is recommended.
Calves should be fed in a stanchion
so constructed as to prevent them
from sucking each others ears after
they have drank their milk. The
feeding of grain by placing little be-
fore them after every meal of milk
will also discourage the desire to suck
the ears of the calf in the next stan
chion.
The secret of successful calf raising
lies in keeping the calf's digestive
organs in perfect condition. TO do
this avoid sudden changes, either in
feeding or management. Feed warm
milk from clean pals, but do not feed
too much. Clean, sunny quarters
with exercise and clean and whole
some food in proper amounts at the
proper time, will lessen the number
of weak calves and produce heiiers
which will develope into vigorous
cows.

One OF the most striking features
of the Sportsmen's Show, which was
held in New York City, March 5th to
l4th, was the trao shooting conducted
from the roof the fourteen story ex-
hibition building of the Grand Cen

fessional shots from far and near
gathered for the novel contests. All
weather conditions from warm sum
shine to blizzard with driving snow
were experienced, but some very
creditable scores were made high up
above the busy street. H. H. Stevns,
of RoselIe Park, N. J.. captured high
professional honors, shooting a Rem
ngton pump gun and Nitro Club
shells, breaking $50 out of possible
400 targets.

possible 100 in the strange light, he
used Arrow shells and broke 20 oui
