OKOLONA MISS. APR. IL. 1917

The United States and Ger
many are now at war. Men and
more men will be needed and it's
going to take lots of money and
food to maintain the army and
country. Prices of food are now
high, but these prices are very
likely to be considered low when
the top notch is reached. Intact,
if nation after nation continues
to become involved, it will not
be question of price at all but
of finding something to subsist
upon. The millions of men called
and to be called from productive
to destructive enterprises nee
essarially makes food and feed
scarce and high. And whether
the war lasts a month or five
years this scarcity will last at
least until the crops of 1918 be-
gin to reach the markets and
longer if the war goes on.
1t is now up to the South to
feed her own people. Before
our country went to war, the
matter of what to plant was a
question of profit. 1t now be-
comes one of necessity-live at
home or starve. Cotton prices
may look attractive but we can
not eat cotton. What would it
profit US if every pocket were fill
ed to overfowing with hundred
dollar bills and we were out of
food and there was none to buy?
Would we not starve just as soon
as if our pockets were empty?
Besides cotton is not high
when compared with food. A
pound of cotton will not buy a
pound of meat today. When
cotton was seven cents a pound
bale would buy more corn than
t will now, it would buy more
lour, more clothes and more of
everything that we must have
0 live and to live we must and !
will but if our people don't want S
o get mighty hungry they had .
etter grow a humber crop of
to eat.

The ability of our Southern
farmers to produce the best
grade of live stock and to finish
it as we'll as is being done by the
farmers of the North was again
demonstrated by a saIelof.. flour
teen hogs made by Mr.. T. L.
Word, who is one of theimost
progressive young farmers we
have in the Okolona territory.
AS Mr.. Word kept accurate data
on the handling of these hogs
during the feeding period, the
figures make interesting reading.
On February Oath, the day feed
ing was started, the fourteen
pigs weighed 1,792 pounds and
were worth, on the local market
of that date, nine cents making
the bunch worth $161. %. After
feeding for six weeks the hogs
were sold on the local market
for 133 cents a pound. In the
feeding period they, had gained
l, ,013 pounds, making a total
weight of 2,805 pounds and
bringing a check for $378.6
They had been fed 623 bushels of
corn, 200 pounds of cotton seed
meal and 250 pounds of shorts
which at market prices cost $101.
leaving the neat little profit of
S116.39 on the feeding period.
This shows that, after paying
for the cotton seed meal and
shorts, Mr.. Word sold his corn
to the pigs at $500 a bushel.
To meet the possible objection of
some critic that no allowance
has been made for the labor in
an allowance of -$1.00 a
Okolona messenger., 1917-04-12

day during the feeding period
can be made and the result still
shows price of $2.5j a bushel
received for the corn fed. This
seems to demonstrate very con-
clusively that live stock when
properly handled makes the very
best possible market for our
farm products.
