Unmistakable evidence OF the trend
toward the development of a commun-
ity spirit strong enough to induce com
munity action is furnished by county
in Indiana. where recently farmers
met and after fun discussion decided
to adopt given breed of hogs for
production in that section. Naturally
there were preconceived likes and pro
nounced preferences. but stronger
than these differences was the agree
ment that any one of the popular
breeds is better for all than that all
the breeds should be produced in that
region. The advantages OF this kind
Of agreement and practice have been
often discussed, and the agreements
always reinforced by citing the com
munity practices in Great Britain, Bel
gium, Holland. France and the Channel
Islands where distinctive breeds have
originated. been developed and i'm.
proved until they have won world.
wide fame. and commanded worldwide
markets. While at present in this
country there appears to be little
need of developing new breeds. yet
there is great need OF maintaining
and improving the standard breeds.
Also there is an urgent need OF the
individual breeders finding remunera-
tive prices and convenient market
for his surplus.
1t is trite saying that in domestic
animals there is ever present the tend
ency toward deterioration. 1t is only
by the most determined and persistent
effort that breeders are able to keen
flocks, herds and studs up to their own
standards. Farmers will therefore
likely find much help in the emula-
tion created and the cooperation made
possible by neighborhood organization.
However large the number, or how
ever small the number of men breed
ing the same kind OF live stock in a
neighborhood, always there will be
some who have a keener eye than
others for animal symmetry. and a
wiser appraisement OF quality: but the
others will balance these qualities
with larger knowledge OF feeding
conditions or perhaps a clearer appre-
hension OF the value Of hygiene and
sanitation. Having taken the long
step in cooperation that OF choosing
breed. 1t Is altogether likely that dis
cussion and action that tend to create

into their prime place, and embrace
the essential question OF high-class
production, to the consideration OF

tributions derived from experience.
