A HOME MARKET FOR HOGS
Coed News .or .as Farmers 81 New ION
and Boone Counties.

Lawrence Foot, Special Agent,
Marketing" of the United States
Department of Agriculture and the
University Of Arkansas co.opera-
ting. was in our town Tuesday,
His work is to find a way to in.
duce the farmers TO raise more and
better hogs and all hard finished
with corn, and necessarially, more
corn. He does this work by prov
ing to the ice factories in Arkansas
that it is to their pecuniary interest
to buy from the farmer dressed hogs
of the above kind, paying cash for
the same and at a price equal to or
better than the farmer could obtain
by shipping his hogs on foot 70 the
markets.
1t appears that during the months
of November, December, January,
February, and Mrrch, the average
ice plant is dead mechanically and
during the same period 90 per
cent of the hogs are sold, thus,
new, steady and staple market is OBJ
tanned by the farmer for this valu-
able product, and the kind Of a
market he has not enjoyed in the
past for his dressed hogs, thus the
aim of the University and the Gov
ernment is reached, as it certainly
will encourage him to raise more
hogs.
Again, many farmers in the South
often lose their meat in curing.
This is caused almost always for the
reason that the carcass is not
thoroughly cooled before cutting
up( the weather being warm but
now he can kill his hogs practically
any day in the year irrespective of
the condition of the weather, not
being compelled to wait for a cold
snap, and save his meat as well as
his corn, for it is waste Of money
to feed corn to hogs when they are
in a proper condition to kill, for
when killed in the evening say, the
next morning. he can take his hogs
to the ice factory, have them hung
in the cooling room for FIVE days,
when they will be thoroughly chill
ed, take them home cure, smoke and
thus safely save his meat. The ice
factory should not charge ior this
service more than one cent pound.
So this work not only helps the
farmer, but it also gives the ice
factory a new business, besides.
gives the community in which the
factory is located, cheaper and better
meat. Again. it will keep at home
thousands of Arkansas dollars that
go North every year for these pro-
ducts, which in quality cannot COM
pare with our own that are home
grown. Mr.. Root states that the
Harrison Ice Factory will under
take this work about the middle of
November and will be in the market
at fair price for corn fed hard
finished hogs dressed. ,/

FINE SERIES Of
CIVIC MEETINGS

Number OF the States Big Boosters.

that they participate in the interest
for Harrison's growth and better
ment is indeed compliment to our
city. The TIMES will publish ex-
tracts from these addresses later as
space permits.

State Highway Commissioner W. B.
Owen on the good roads movement
now advancing SO rapidly under the
Alexander law was full of facts and

1t is understood that cur Booster
Club is determined to proceed with
the organization of the Public Ser
vice Bureau and that they are re-
, ceiving satisfactory encouragement,
but aside from this important de-
velopment, there can be no question
as TO the value of this series of meet
ings to Harrison and her future

OIL Carrier

ASSOCIATED Press by Fed. Wireless
ALICANTE, Spain, March g.
Spanish guns were trained upon the
Belgian oil tanker Tifiis in the harbor
here yesterday and that vessel was
sunk by the bursting shells poured
into her hull at close range. The
act was not one of war, however, but
matter of necessity, to save the 9TH
er shipping in the harbor.
A petroleum explosion aboard the
Tiffis at noon yesterday set the tank
er afire and killed one of her sailors,
while six others were seriously
burned. The flames spread rapidly
throughout the oil soaked upper
works of the tanker and the port fire
men We're unable to handle the situa.
ton, while grave danger existed that
the main oil tanks of the ship would
explode and scatter the fire all over
the harbor, where a number of ships
were lying
When the situation grew grave, the
port authorities telegraphed for a
warship to sink the Tifis, which was
accomplished. "
