Is per cent represents live animals
and animal products, % per cent crops
and 8 per cent miscellaneous produce.
Ivan Whitfield, representing the Iowa
department of agriculture, says that
this report shows that the Iowa farm
er is following the right policy both to
build up his farm and to get the most
cash out of his efforts.
There was time in Iowa when
the farmers sold most of their grain
and field products" said Mr.. Whitfield.
In many cities there were two or more
elevators to. handle the grain. Now

Of the grain in the district. and the

Pays to Keep Their Grain.
"The Iowa farmer has learned that
1t does not pay to sell his grain. He
now feeds it to cattle and hogs. Sell
ing crops often means depicting the
soil, but feeding the grain and selling
the animals and animal products
means enriching the SOIL
Iowa now has more hogs than the
state has ever had at any time in its
history. Hogs mean money tn the
farmer. The reports indicate that there
are from 20 to % per cent more swine
the state over than there are in nor
NAL years. And the state is reportd
to have but little hog cholera
The reports to the government by
farmers of other states as to what
they sell from their farms, indicate
that methods differ widely from those
of the Iowa farmers. The general av-
erage Of the United States is 40 per
cent crops. So per cent live animals
20 per cent animal products. per
cent miscellany.
In the southern states the report
shows that Is per cent of the sales
from farms are crops, IA per cent live
animals. 9 per cent animal products
and per cent miscellaneous.
