NUMBER OF HOGS
 IS DECREASING
Greene County Had 23,07l Head in 1914, Valued at $28,265-Ran-
 dolph Had Larger Number.

Hog raising in Arkansas declined in 1914 over the previous year, ac- cording to reports of the Arkansas tax commission, just completed. The number assessed in 1914 was 9S7,- 074, compared with 1,024,9S3 in 1913. The loss in assessed valua- tion, based upon 50 per cent of the true value, was $219,OG0. The av- craze valuation of the animals also showed a decrease, the shrinkage being from S171 assessed, to S156 ahead, assessed. The total value of the Arkansas product for taxation purposes was $1,538,77S in 1914, against $1,757S3S in 1913.
 Inadequate and incomplete taxa tion is given as the cause for the shrinkage. When assessments are made swine are running loose and many farmers fail to give correct assessments. Hog cholera, too, de- creased the number. According to the figures of the tax commission, there was an average of 13,16O hogs in every county in the state last year.
 The banner hog raising county, according to the report, was Ran dolph, which had 26,713 animals assessed. Crittenden county was at the bottom of the list with SEQ. In- dependence county ranged second with 25,264. Carroll, Clay Craig head, Greene, Lawrence, Logan, Madison, Pope and Washington counties, according to the tax lists, had 10000 or more. Pope county had an even 10000. The actual number of hogs in Greene county according to the tax books is 23,- 071, valued at $3S,265.
