County Agent Christ Christensen
Gets Official Instructions From
Federal Feed Administra.
tor for Iowa.
ARE FOUR MAIN PURPOSES
Plans are Already Bearing Fruit by
Saving Smaller Hogs for Fat
tening.


in receipt of official instructions
from ]. F. Deems, federal food adj
ministrator for Iowa, in furtherance
of the policy of the national food
administration for the conservation
and increased production of food
products. The bulletin just issued
deals with price Of hogs.
There are four main purposes of
the Food Administration as to hogs:
To see that the producer at all times
can count on fair price for his hogs
SO that it will be profitable to him;
to see that the farmer increases the
number of hogs bred; to limit the
profit of the packer and the middle
man and to eliminate speculation.
The prices, so far as the food admin
istration can effect them, will not go
below a minimum of about $3.50 per
hundred weight for the average of
the packers droves on the Chicago
market until further notice.
How Price Is Controlled.
Fair prices to the farmer for his
hogs, it is believed, can be brought
about by the full control which the
food administration has over the buy
ing of the allies, our army and navy,
the Red Cross, the Belgian relief and
the neu.rals, which together consti-
tute considerable factor in the mar
ket.
A group of about fifteen packers
sat around a table in the food ad-
ministration offices recently. At it's
head was Joseph P. Cotton, chief OF
the meat division, the country's
''meat boss" Before him was long
list specifying the meat needs OF the
allies-our allies-the Red Cross and
the Belgian relief organizations.
When the session broke up the great
est meat order in the history of the
world had been placed. The details
of the transaction must remain Sc
cret, but the order was split into sec
lions and allotted throughout the
country.
The order was placed under the
new prices established recently by
the food administration, which al
lows the packers not more than ~
per cent profit on meat sales.
Plans Bear Fruit.
That the food administration meat
conservation plans are bearing fruit
was indicated during the day when
Mr.. Cotton made public figures, show
ing that during last week alone
1924 light hogs-those weighing un-
der rs pounds-were sent back from
the central markets. These were
sent in largely from Wisconsin, nor
thern Iowa and other districts where
the corn crop was failure. They
have been reshipped to sections
where corn is plentiful, to be fed and
returned to market as heavy hogs,
weighing 800 or more pounds.
This means that millions OF pounds
of pork has been conserved. It. may
be here stated that each hog was
vaccinated before being shipped. I'm
der the old practice the light hogs
would have been slaughtered and
millions of pounds of flesh would
have been wasted, depicting materi-
ally the prospective meat supply.

treatment requires three doses of
