How the Farmer Could Make
More From His Hogs

Some farmers down in Georgia
got tired of receiving only seven
and eight cents a pound for their
hogs, while they paid 25 to IS cents
for hams and bacon in their own
markets, and have gone back to the
days before the war and re-opened
the snlokehouses on the farms and
are making their own hams and ba-
con, not only for home consump-
ton, but for sale in the open market,
and are capturing some of that ham
and bacon money. They have real
ly established their smoke houses.
and arranged for cooperative mar
keting and are building up an ex-
tensive business. Their products
have found favor in the markets,
and the old Georgia hams and bacon
are rapidly making a trade name
throughout the country. These
Georgia farmers claim that their
profits are much larger than is pos
sible from marketing the hogs on
the hoof.
Now, these farmers are in no wise
especially blessed in respect to land,
location or grain market. On the
contrary, they are in remote

Icounty in the southern part of Geor-
gia Therefore, it can be plainly
seen that what these farmers have
done, any farmer anywhere can do.
If the Georgia farmers can make
a success Of raising, curing and mar
keting their hams and bacon, there
is certainly timely suggestion in it
for farmers nearer grain centers
and markets and in closer touch
with the parcel post system. Our
section of the country here in the
northwest, so favorable for the
growing of the hog, is an ideal sec
ton of the country to produce the
best Of hams and bacon at a much
greater profit than can be had BY
selling the animals on foot at only
seven to eight cents per pound
There is money in hogs either
way-on foot or cured into hams
and bacon.

Register is SO good that it deserves

Ranch" and not any of the poet
ical fancies that the law allows
He said this about it: First Of all
one must establish his own name
as the breeder, the proprietor OF
any kind of farm, the same as
any other kind of business. Then
if he starts out to establish a name
that means nothing in particular,
he has had to make a double cam
paign. / believe that the person
ality of any owner, whatever his
business, is his one best asset; and
that it will pay him best to put in
his time setting that before the
buying public" There is abso-
lutely no answer to that logical ar
gument and the Recorder takes
pleasure in setting it before the
Richfield farmers as something
worth their consideration.
Mr.. E. H. Allen, living north Of
town, hasn't quite the same idea Of
the name; for his fine place is
named "The Isabella Ranch" But
he has had some fine stationery

BAND BOYS APPRECIATE
THEIR LEADER.

The Richfield Band is nothing if not
appreciative. Some time ago, Rev.
Leitch, the leader and teacher, received
circulars advertising wonderful new
cornet "a taper bore instrument that is
guaranteed to excel anything else ever
made. 1t is put out by the York fact
ory, which is a guarantee of its excel
lence; and the company has been test
ing it in private form long, long time
before Altering it to the music trade.
Rev. Leitch read the circulars and the
personal letters from the York people---
he is an intimate friend of the manu-
facturers---and he expressed himself
pretty freely on what fine instrument
it would be. The boys said nothing to
him about it, but quietly started around
with subscription paper, and in about
three hours they had the money to buy
the finest horn the company makes
They told Rev. Leitch to order one---no,
to order two, and take his choice of the
best there is. The new horn will be
here in a few days, and will be heard
in the next outdoor concert.

Once more-why do you farm?
To make money?
Why pay three times as much for
the land if you buy, or three times
the interest on the unearned incre-.
ment and overcapitalized land than
you would pay here where you can
make more net profit per acre and
Of course just three times the inter
est and capitalized profit here in

Answer-Why, INDEED? Why
not go to Idaho?
This isn't lurid catechism Of un-
real conditions. YOU know what
you pay for land or for interest if
you rent land you know what you
get per acre, what your crops bring
you, what risks you run in every
crop.
You can find out that land here
is worth only one-third as much;
that it produces at least as much.
or more; that the sale prices are as
high or higher and that the differ
ence would be ALL YOURS.

Advertise Your Farm--It Pays

the buyer. Of course, it pays the
producer, too, for prices are better
than they ever were or could be
under the old plan. But to go over
to some of the really prosperous
farm countries of Europe, all but
ter is so branded, and every egg
that is gathered is stamped with the
address of the owner and the date
of the gathering; SO that no one
can sell bad stuff without it coming
directly home to him. Local So
cieties that enforce a rigid inspec-
ton of farm products, and require
uniform standard, make such
wonderful gains in the price re-
ceived in the markets, that they
have made Ireland. and Belgium,
and Holland, and some of the other
strictly farm countries of Europe
the most prosperous sections Of
the world, where before they or
ganized for quality and uniformity
and personal responsibility times
were almost unbearably hard.
1t isn't going quite SO far as all
this, to merely advertise your farm,
or to have printed stationery and
labels and wrappers. But it is max
ing a great start on the Prosperity
Road.

w. NJ. Breck, who owns a fine
ranch north of town, last week
started an advertisement in the Re
corder which deserves some rather
particular attention.
Just at present, he is advertising
his magnificent Belgian horse, Mar
nix. But this is only the beginning
for regular campaign of publicity
He expects to have colts, and poul-
try, and maybe potatoes, and grain
and other farm products to sell all
through the year some of this stuff
being regular crops that could be
handled through the regular chan
.nels, and others being only occa-
sional and SO not having a definite
method Of marketing to established
dealers. He believes that by using
some newspaper space and each
week or two putting in the items he
wishes to sell, he can make it a
good investment. Indeed, why not?
He has more money invested in his
farm than most town business men !:
he must sell his products to the best
advantage, at the least possible cost
for hunting a buyer. AS man who
has been in factory and other big
business for years, Mr.. Breck has

RICHFIELDERS AT PRESS
CLUB MEETING

Mr. and Mrs. Lisle, of the Recorder,
returned Tuesday from Twin Falls,
where they went Saturday noon to at
tend the Eastern Idaho Press Club
meeting. Leaving Twin Falls Monday
morning, before the Club had finished
its deliberations. they came by auto to
the wonderful ''Farview Ranch owned
by P. S. A. Bickel, on the Snake RIVER
below Hagerman, as the guests of Mr.
and Mrs. Bickel From there they
were driven to Wendell, then over the
Idaho Southern to Gooding and then
home. The Press Club was a notable
business and social success. Mr.. Lisle,
president for the last year, announced
that he favored an inflexibe rule that
this honor should be passed on and no
one succeed himself; and Mr.. w. R.
Holmes of the Paris Post was elected
as president for the coming year. Jas.
H. Dewitt of Rupert remains as secre-
tary. j. F. Edgerton of Soldier is the
first vice-president. Money subjects of
interest to the newspapers were dis

gunmed labels for the eggs that
are to come from that place. Later,
he plans to make this identification
of all his products, speciality
making a reputation for cleanli-
ness, freshness, and all that for his
products. He is taking the same
general road for individuality
however, as Mr.. Breck-believing
that he can make his identified
farm products more popular and in
greater demand than the unnamed,
irresponsible stuff from the aver
age farm.
No law could put knowledge and
even a strict accountability into
every one-but the state law re-
quiring that all butter which is Of

Why Not Farm Where 1t Pays More?

at from $50 upward, that will pro-
duce more tons or bushels or cords
or any other unit of measurement,
than the best land you have it will
pay better price per given unit
and you do it on an investment OF
only one-third as much for the land,
one-third as much for the interest.
At this lower price, many a man
who cannot hope to own farm at
the high price of the East, can BUY
and own his farm in Idaho; and
then every dollar of the interest and
capital and increased price is HIS.
Let's see: If land is worth 5000
an acre, even the modest retrun Of
6 per cent gross would be $l2 a
year; and few owners would take
that little, when fences, buildings.

But if you applied that $12 or
more on land at only $50 or there
abouts per acre, it would leave a
pretty NICE SUM with the farmer.
