Will Raise Hogs,

WI, y. ~, CNOiNSoAJ
the Southwestern Boys and
Girls Hog Clubs, and member
of the advisory board OF the
Texas Industrial Congress, IS
earnestly urging the farmers who
intend to reduce their cotton
acreage next year TO cultivate
forage crops with which to fatten
hogs for the market.
In letter to the Congress Mr.
French says:
81 have read with much inter-
est of the efforts that are being
made to reduce the cotton acre
age but so far nothing has been
done to show the farmer what he
can substitute, profitably, for
cotton, or how to procure live
stock for feeding purposes.
"The situation reminds me Of a
story | once read: "Once upon
a time, the story goes, the King
of France decided to declare war
on Italy, and called upon his
generals and engineers for plans
to get the army into Italy. When
the plans were completed, the
king said, Now we will declare
war Then the kings fool said,
Your majesty, your plans for
getting your army into Italy are
all right, but where are your
plans for getting your army out
of Italy?" Then the king threw
a chair at the fool, but war was
not declared. -
$50 the. cotton farmer must
have plans for way out, if he
goes into the scheme Of reducing
the cotton acreage, and planning
other crops.
eff the cotton growing COM
munity wants to secure mich
COWS, let it form an organization
and adopt the Moser Dairy plan
as outlined by the Texas Indus
trial Congress; if it wants brood
Sows, let them follow the example
of San Angelo and Pecos.
"These two communities called
meeting of their Chamber of
Commerce and business men, and
finance committee was formed 9;
then every farmer who wanted
one or more sOws was invited to
sign up for the number he want,
ed. The finance committee pass
ed on each mans ability to handle
the number Of sows he ordered,
and his ability to meet his obliga-
tons. Then car of sows was
bought and paid for by the fl
nance committee; the hogs were
dipped and inoculated to prevent
them from taking cholera. They
were sold at the market price for
meat hogs, with cost of dipping,
vaccinating and freight charges.
81 am glad to say that the
Fort Worth Stock Yards and its
allied interests have made ar
rangements by which communi-
ties that get together like Fort
Stockton, Pecos, San Angelo and
other points and act in conjunc-
ton with their Chamber Of Com
merce and banks can be supplied
with high grade or registered
hogs, which will be sent out prop,
