Did you ever stop to think
what it would mean for Oktlbbe-
ha county if every worthless dog
within It's limits was done away
with and a good pig raised in
stead. A worthless dog is less
than worthless; he is fed at a
direct loss to the owner. A pig
will require little more food than
the dog and with a few minutes
attention each day will return
you almost 100 percent profit on
your investment at the end of
the year. Oktlbbeha would, no
doubt, be the banner hog raising

mean the pouring in of thousands

The Farmers Opportunity.

Nowhere IN the wide world
has anyone profited more from
the war than the American farm
err. Prices of cotton, corn, rice,
sugar, livestock; in fact, of ev-
erYthlng the farmer has to sell
are higher than he ever dreamed
of-and the end is not yet.
Unlike the farmers of France,
of Italy, Of Russia, and of other
countries IN the war, the Amerl-
can farmer can 60 about his
work, sowing in the Spring and
feeling secure that his fields vii
not be overrun by the enemy be-
fore harvest; reaping in the firm
knowledge that his stored gram
will not be seized by a ruthless
invader.
'Tis true the farmer has his
troubles. Help is hard to get,
and the cost of production goes
up month my month. What the
farmer has to buy also advances
continually IN price, but the
farmer, unlike the city dweIler,
can, if he desires, purchase very
little ana still get along. His
living is right on his farm. What
he purchases elsewhere is large
ly IN the line of luxuries. He
can sell now, while prices are
high, and buy later, if he wishes
after prices go down.
In fact it would be wisdom II
he would follow this plan. Cut
down on the purchases of luxur
les and save for the next period
OF depression. That is just whar
the United States Is asking hin
to do in connection with the Wa
Savings campaign. The worlt
needs food-all that can be pro
duced. The government needs
money--all that can be had. LIE
the farmer produce the food an,
supply a hungry world, and pu

into government war saving
