reduction in the number Of hogs pro.

mands of warning nations are regu-

lions are short in their supplies and
are constantly requesting more aid

it has been declared that the warning

There is at present an unusually
great demand for county agricultural
agents to carry out the plan, adopted
under the food production act of en-
ploying an emergency demonstration
agent for every agricultural county in
the United States not having regular
county agent. This is part of the Ma
tiCnal plan to INCREASE the production
and conservation of food to meet the
war emergency needs. Organization

!owa's Greatest Hog Feeder.
I'd. F.. Malin.)

4 "Iows's greatest hog feeder" Such
is the distinction given to Lincoln
ETarbo!d Of Plano, Iowa, who feeds
from ten to twelve thousand hogs
yearly on his farms. To be consider
ed the greatest feeder in the greatest
hog state is indeed an enviable dis
tinction. The extent and success Of
Mr.. Harbold's operations furnish him
with ample qualification for this title
and are convincing proof of the stabi4-
ity Of the hog business. Mr.. Har-
holds largest establishment is situa-
ted at Plano, Iowa. He has other
farms at Peru, Iowa, and also in Okla
homa, Illinois and Nebraska. xe@
One Of Mr.. Harb0ld's most import
ant farms is at Peru, Madison county,
Iowa. It consists of 60 acres Of uncul-
tivated land. The farm Is one big side
hill and sandy, stony soil makes 1t i'm
practicable for cultivation. An album
dance of shade trees and brush cover
the farm and q stream flows through
its center, furnishing water supply
Tor the hogs at certain seasons OF the
year. The farm is equipped to handle
large number of hogs and will ac-
commodate as many as 5000 at Ole
time. There are three large barns on
the place and three wells to furnish
the water supply. The system has been
to let large numbers of hogs run to-
gether rather than cut the farm up
into q great many small lots. Gates
and fences are so arranged as to give
every convenience in transferring the
hogs from one part Of the ranch to an
other.
self-feeding is employed on this hog
ranch and has given the best OF re-
suits. The demands Of the 5000 head
which were fed this last year are met
with 10 large feeders for shelled corn
and 10 feeders which contain q mix
ture of concentrates,i consisting Of
tankage shorts, linseed oil meal and
salt. Some idea Of the amount Of feed
required may be gained from knowing
that the Is bunkers Of shelled corn
require four wagon loads to I'LL them
and they have to be entirely filled
every day. Besides the shelled corn,
there is also fed four wagon loads Of
tankage, seven sacks of shorts, five
sacks OF linseed oil meal and cores
bonding amounts OF salt and tonic are
consumed daily by these 5000 porkers.
Great care is taken to keep the self
feeders clean and free from dirt. They
are thoroughly. cleaned as a precau.
tion against diseases. Another feature
Of Mr.. Harbold's operations is the use
Of tonic for the hogs. 1t has been his
experience that the hogs thrive better
when they have access to salt and
-tUnic. At times Of wet weather, the
amount is doubled and the tankage
ii cut down to prevent its clogging

son types and from hybrids have pass
ed successful trial period, and are
now recommended by specialists OF
the United States department Of Ag:

cites and cultural practices-some-
what different from the culture of
common strawberries-are described
in publication which has just ap-
peared from the Department of Agri.
culture, Farmers Bulletin 90l, "Ev-
erbearing Strawberries"
The two leading varieties of the ev-
erbearing type are the Progressive
and the Superb. The Progressive has
been found to Withstand the winters
Of the Middle West better than most
other varieties except the dunlap, one
of its parents. The Superb also is
harder than most varieties OF straw
berries. A remarkable characteristic
of both is that If blooms are killed by
frost they soon flower again. This
character makes them especially valu-
able for sections subject to late spring
frosts, which often destroy the crop
in ordinary sorts. $i, :. 5>1,
It. is explained that the new ever
bearing sorts, which are sometimes
confused with other varieties showing
abnormal behavior differ in that they
bear fruit under favorable conditions
more or less continuously from the
season Of the ordinary Varieties until
frost Certain varieties of the ever
bearing type which have been set for
q year bear . fair crop during the re.
gular strawberry season. For the per-
iOd Immediately after this early sum-
mer crop the amount of fruit obtain
ed is small. In August, September and
October, it becomes larger and under
conditions the late summer
and autumn yield may equal or ex-
coed the early summer crop. They are
not well adapted to sections having
long droughts except when irrigation
can be supplied. ". T.:
Plants Of the everbearing varieties
should be set at the same time as
those Of other varieties-as soon as
the ground is in condition in the
ariEg Growers of the Progressive
and Americas varieties, which have
rsther small fruit, agree that more
fertile soil is required for them than
for the ordinary sorts, in order to In
crease their size, Another reason for
the need Of q fertile soil is that this
f1f 81 strawberry requires larger
BVpply OF moisture than do the sorts
Witch produce only plant growth after
the early summer fruit crop.
