SOUTHERN FARMERS ADVISED
TO RAISE MORTGAGE LIFTERS"

advice from the Department of Agri'
culture. Secretary Houston would not
have the planters of Dixie quit cotton
but .he thinks that they should seize
the present opportunity to try out
hogs. mules horses and cattle.
Two special statements one on
How Southern Farmers May Get a
Start in Pig Raising" and another on
Horse and Mule Raising i'll the
South" were issued by the depart
ment this week.
There is no single factor in agri-
cultural production OH the average
farm that Is Of greater Importance

the one.
This power can usually he furnish
ed more cheaply by the production
Of needed animals in that particular
locality than by purchasing them
from remote localities. In home
production there is also the added adj
vantage of possessing animals which
are thoughhly acclimatized.'
The bulleton tells how to take care
of the brood mares and to feed the
colts. 1t can he had by requesting
1t from the department.
Concerning pigs the department
says:

suits fully as profitable as elsewhere.

Southern farmer wishes to get>a start.
