To Save Arkansas Meat

One thousand hogs were killed at
the University Of Arkansas state ser
um farm in November to provide SER
UNI with which to save many thou
sands Of hogs for Arkansas farmers.
On Thanksgiving day alone two hun
dred hogs we're killed to secure blood
filled with cholera germs to pump into
other hogs and hyper-immunize them.
These extra highly-immunized hogs
later Will be killed and their blood will
become the serum with which to pro-
tect other hogs from cholera. Two
hundred hogs killed on THANKSGIVING
Day will save the meat for many Ark
ansas families who, therefore. Will
have more reason for giving thanks
next November.

rapid growth of crops in spring and
bigger yields. Drainage of the wet
lands on the place is one of the best
forms of investment because it pays
big profits. Drainage increases the
value of the land because it produces
better. Drainage will make cold. un-
workable lands into warm, easily
worked and very valuable property. If
you expect to grow good crops at a
profit, drain the wet places and make
them productive. If you want to sell,
drain wet places, grow good crops,
and the land will sell itself at an adj
vanced price Crawfish are not mar
ketable Drain the wet places and
grow better crops.

is sub-divded into fifteen sub-plan-
tations of from one thousand to TWEEN
ty-five hundred acres. Each sub
plantation has manager and five of
the larger ones have assistant mana
gers All are responsible to one gen
eral manager The Arkansans report
that they found the managers on this
big place advocating and actually put
ting into practice the established prin-
eiples of good farming. For example,
they say every plantation is re-
quired to produce sufficient feed for
that place. Each negro tenant has a
garden. a potato patch and two pigs
for meat and many of them have cows
for milk and butter. A general pas
ture is provided for each of the fiji

Better Farming bints
Are Your Plows Running

To have seven thousand acres of
land plowed before January first is
the aim of the managers of the 20
900 acre plantation of the Mississippi
aelta Planting Company of Scott,
Mississippi. This is the report given
by the party Of Arkansas planters
who recently visited that place
They say that in thirty-four mile
drive over the place they saw many
plows running in many fields. Mr.
Fox, general manager, says that at
least one-third of the land must be
plowed before January first if the cot
ton crop is to be planted IN time to
escape the boil weevil Further, he
cites the oft repeated fact that when
land is broken in the fall or winter
there is time for it to firm down by
planting season. 1t is a we'll estab
lished fact that neither cotton nor any
other crop does we'll ON a loose seed
bed. The very surface must be we'll
worked and fine at time of planting
TO permit soil articles to come in
close contact with the seed and the
soil below must be firm, not hard, to
make the young plant come up quick
~ and grow rapidly. To escape the
boil weevil, cotton must come up very
quickly and grow rapidly. Corn,
wheat, oats, alfalfa, and all other
grain, hay, or pasture crops should be
sown on firm, not hard, seed beds.

While this large plantation has a
