FEED FOR PIGS.


 Stock raising on the ranges can not much longer be profitable. Ar kansas farmers are seeing the necessity of sheds and pastures fl they are to make money from hogs It will be only few years ontil the Razor Back will De a curiosity The Pig Club boys are driving iA out of the state. Arkansas farm CTS want hogs that will weight tws hundred pounds or more at ffcr six to eight months. That means first, pure bred boars, next. pure bred sows, then spring and summer pasture, rape. peas, soybeans, pea nuts, clover and Bermuda. The6 it means decent and clean lots ana sheds and the right kind of feed fol fattening. Corn alone is hot | profitable feed Corn and cloyer or alfalfa or peas or peanuts are fine. When these cannot be had for winter fattening the farmers must have a balance of corn. taaks age. meat neal and mi5df,ns8, or some such feeds fl hs wants to fat . ten his hogs economically Then the farmers should adopt the plan of hogging down few acres or corn every September If peas or peanuts are in the field the pigs will have a good ration. Let us produce all the pork We need in- stead of buying 1t from Missouri. The Extension Division and De- paftment of Agriculture. Fayett5- vile and Little Rock. have bulletins on hogs and hog feeding for free distribution. All county agents keep bulletins for farmers and will be glad Q work out for them a good hog fattening ration.
 FEED THE HERS.
 Arkansas farmers are beginning to realize the importance of poul- try as a source of considerable rev. enue in addition to the contribution to the family table Why not try little bookkeeping put down in book the number of laying hens and bullets (no roosters needed until February) charge up grains and purchased feed and keep rec ord of egg production. Hens will not lay well on just any klnd of feed. They must have egg pro- ducing feeds and these will include grains, greens or pasture, rye. clo- yer, wheat, etc, worms, rabbits or some other meat food and grits. Equal parts of wheat and corn, half as much oats fed in straw or leaves make a good dry feed for winter. Then dry mash. say five pounds of bran. five pounds of shorts and three and one-half pounds of meat scraps will make a good feed. If milk is available the meat scrap is not necessary. These two feeds with ground oys- ter shells will make a good winter fe eds for hens. Eggs in some Ar kansas cities are now selling for thirty cents and in the East for fifty cents. It will pay to produce eggs for market this winter and then farmers should organize for shipping eggs to the good markets if the local prices are not good The Extension Division and U. s Department of Agriculture will send bulletins on poultry problems Advise with the county agents and see him for bulletins.

NO DANGER Of
FUEL FAMINE
SAY DEALERS
LARGE QUANTITIES OF WOOD
ARE ON HAND AND ALSO
MUCH NUT COAL

There Is no danger or a fuel fam.
inc in Pendleton during the present
cold weather Fuel deaiers are unan.
nous in agreeing there is not ev-
en- remote likelihood Of shortage
Of wood and coal.
AT the present time there is practi-
cally no lump coal in the city but all
Of the dealers report an abundance Of
nut coal. Wood in large quantities is
also stored in PendIeton, one dealer
estimating that there Is enough wood
in the city at this date 20 supply the
entire city for a period or 80 days. In
addition 10 this, b. L. Burroughs has
1000 cords in the mountains available
in case Of extraordinary demand.
The continued cold weather has
caused a big drain upon the winter
supplies Of fuel in private and bust
ness houses and all Of the dealers are
rushed with orders for immediate de-
liyeries. Because of the deep snow
in the streets, the delivery of wood
and coal is a difficult problem for
the dealers. Four horses are being
used on every wagon and light loads
are being hauled, particularly to the
hilly sections of the city. one dealer
estimated that it required almost four
times as long to deliver load now
as normally. Thus the expense OF
delivery is much larger now than in
ordinary times.
