is about SO less than a year

White males, 845; balck males,

double what it had a few years

1t is said the country is in
greater need of an increase in
the number of hogs on farms
than any other animals. As
hogs increase faster than other
farm animals and are good
feeders pork raising is the
quickest way to supply the
country with meat. Hogs can
be raised on most farms by
making a little preparation for
pasture and grain. Let every
farmer who feels that it is
possible raise at least enough
pigs to supply his own family
with pork and bacon.

that date amounted to $685.
692 bales as compared with a

Miners of Arkansas was shown

CATTLEMEN MEET IN
CAPITAL NEXT WEEK
Plans Completed for Stock
Growers Meeting in Little
Rock Feb SIS /

All arrangements for the
convention of the Arkansas
Swine and Stock Growers AS
ISOLATION to be held in Little
Rock February 5, and the Sou
thern Cattleman's Association
to be held February 6, Z, 8,
have been completed.
The convention of the Ark
ansas association will hold only
one session, in order that the
members may remain in the
city for the Southern Cattle
mems association. The meet
ings of both organizations will
to be held in tie Auditorium of
the Hotel Marion.
Auction sales of blooded live
stock will feature both the
State and Southern Cattlemen's
Convention.
The auction sales will be
conducted by Col. Carey Jones
of Chicago and Col. H. l.. lyle
heart of Elizabethtown, KY.
The cattle and swine to be auc-
toned have been inspected by
DR.. R. M. Cow, secretary of
the Southern Cattlemen's AS
ISOLATION, who states that with
out exception they appear to
come from the best blooded
breeding families in the coun-
try.
The stock show and auction
sales will be held in Liberty
Hall, corner second and Spring
streets.
A great deal of importance
is attached to the auction fea
ture of the meetings, for the
reason that Arkansas has been
asked by theUnited States food
administration to increase her
hog production 20 per cent. 1t
is pointed out that this may be
reached in two ways: one, by
increasing the number of hogs
and second, by increasing the
quality, thereby adding materi-
ally to the weight when plac-
ed on the market.
In line with the request of
the food administrator, DR.. w.
M. Bruce, secretary of the
Swine Breeders Association has
selected some choice animals to
be offered at the auction sales.
1t Is the present intention to
sell only 100 hogs at auction.
but arrangements have been
made for the private sale of
500 additional.
