In an Obscure village way
down South we'll. call it Haw-
kins Corners for convenience sake
there lives a little woman who
makes livelihood from the sales
of eggs and chickens. Not COM
mon ordinary everyday haphaz-
gard varieties, but standard eggs
and chickens of known quality.
The reason why this progressive
little woman has been more sue
cessful than the average producer
of these commonplace commodities
is the fact that consumers III the
locality have become convinced
that they can at all times absolute
ly rely upon the quality of every
egg and every chicken sold by
Mrs. Parmelia Hawkins.
How can prospective purchasers
identify Mrs. Hawkins products?
BY her name on them, Of course;
just as you can identify certain
makes, or brands, of automobiles,
implements, collars, hosiery, talk
ing machines, food products---and
the thousand-and-one other articles
you buy and use.
Every egg that Mrs. Hawkins
offers for sale has plainly stamped
upon it the date upon which it was
laid and her name. To every
chicken marketed, whether alive
or dressed, is attached a neat tag
stating that it has been properly
fed, carefully inspected, and is
guaranteed by Mrs. Hawkins 10 be
a clean. healthy fowl.
1t is hardly necessary to add
that Mrs. Hawkins is never forced.
or even called on, TO make good
h,r guarantee. Her one most
vslual lie asset, her good name,
lacked By her reputation, is on
every article she sells and serves
as a quality pledge to all pur-
chas.ts.
DisregardinC her natural pride
in her name, Mrs. Hawkins can
not, purely from the standpoint OF

Circular On Pig. Work.

Organization of Boys Pig Clubs
is the title of Circular No. 2, is
sued by the Agricultural Exten-
sion Division of L. S. U. 1t con-
tains much information that is of
value to organizers and leaders in
club work. Louisiana was the
first state in the Union to organize
pig clubs and the work has been
highly successful from the begin
ming.
The circular tells how the clubs
are organized and how the work
is carried on. Every boy who en-
rolls in club IS expected to OBJ
tain at least one pig, preferably a
gilt Just weaned, and raise it &C
cording to instruction. The in
structions are contained in circulars
and bulletins sent from the Office
of the Junior Extention division.
Teachers in agricultural schools
and demonstration agents act as
club leaders and give personal in
struction to tho boys. The MAORI
ty of the club members begin the
work in the spring. They are en-
courage to secure purebred animals
though that IS not made a strict
requirement. IN many parishes
bankers and business men help
the boys to purchase their first pig.
Many helpful suggestions on the
feeding and care of growing pigs
are contained in this circular.
Copies may be obtained free by
writing to the Agricultural Exten-
ton Division, L. S. u, Baton

Cotton Seed Should Be Sc

Cotton Seed Should Be Sc
iected From Fisrt Picking.
Each farmer should select his
own seed for cotton and see that
the seed is saved from prolific,
early and healthy plants only.
This means that the picking Of the
cotton that is to be saved for seed
must pc done bs intelligent labor.
In selection Cotton for seed sew
eral things must be keep in mind;
|. The cotton must he early. II
the planter selects his cotton from
the first picking each year he Will
gradually eliminate the late matur-
ing cotton.
2. The cotton must be selected
from plants free from the wilt or
b,acl, root disease. As wilted
plants mature their cotton earlier
than healthy plants special care
must be taken in the first picking.
Seed from a plant that shows any
sign Of wilt should not be saved.
5. The cotton seed should come
from prolific and well shaped
plants. :.
I. Seed should not be saved
from boIls that show any signs of
rot. It is not believed that it is
possible to entirely eliminate boil
rot by seed selection, but it can be
reduced.
The method for seed selection
should be about as follows: When
the cotton is ready for the first
picking, a man able to recognize
the cotton wilt and other diseases
and who can be depended upon to
pick the cotton from only early
| prolific plants, should pick over
the field III advance of the rest of
the piskers. The cotton that he
picks should be ginned separately
and the seed saved fox planting.

Cattle Consisting Sila-e.
It is Impossible TO give specific
directions for feeding dairy cattle,
ass ali cows douot produce the same
amount Of milk, are not the sans

best for one cow might not suit
another.
As a rule all dairy COWS should
have what roughage they viii
clean Up we'll in form OF silage and
lay, and fed in addition to this,
grain in proportion 10 the amount
Of milk they produce. Cows weigh
ing 700 TO 1000 pounds should be
fed one pound Of grain, or concen-
trotcd feed, for each three pounds
Of milk produced. Cows weigh
ing more than 1000 pounds should
be fed one pound of grain for each
four pounds Of milk produced.
il might be mentioned that while
different combinations Of feed stuff
may be used in balancing rations
the following are given as exam
DIae for animals weighing 1000
pounds:
