 H. F. Auten of Little Rock was dele gated to represent the association at a meeting of government demonstrar tion agents in Little Rock. | Prof. J. H. Mcleod of the College of Agriculture Extension Department, talked on Crops For the Silo'' He said that corn was the best and most generally used, but that any of the sorghums were good, and when used together they make excellent silage. Corn and cowpeas in the silo or corn silage and cowpea hay make perfect balanced ration.
 Dual Purpose Cattle" was the sub ject of a paper by H. F. Auten. For milk alone he preferred the Holstein, for beef alone, to be produced on the range, he thought the Hereford good breed, but for the general farmer who expected the COW to give him a little milk and butter as well as calf, he thought there was no animal like the English Shorthorn. Prof. Holtzclaw Of Russellville, spoke favorably of the Shorthorn.
 Dr. w. B. Dorman of Nashville a breeder of Mulefoot hogs, gave talk on that interesting animal. He also gave some valuable information re- garding Sudan grass, which had made him remarkable yields.
 c. w. Watson, state agent of the government demonstration depart ment, explained that the government had put man in the field to estab- | fish in connection with local ice fac tories cold storage plants, where far mers could keep their surplus meat. He asked for the support of the mem l bers in this work.
