Farm Bureau Notes
BY Sam Jordan
Hog Cholera

hog CnOlGTd
This disease is becoming more
or less prevalent in some places
In the county. and hog owners
cannot afford not to be on guard,
and the only safe way is to
vaccinate your hogs, obey the
law yourself and see to it that
the other fellow obeys the law.
Throwing dead hogs in rivers is
a Government offense and pun
ishments are severe. Better
burn sll dead hogs as the law
requires. If a farmer loses
many hogs now from cholera he
can most always lay the blame
on himself.
Farm Money
The farm bureau is in receipt
of letter from the Federal
Land Bank of this district stat
ing that there Is an enormous
amount on hands for financing
farms.
1t is we'll known that in the
past our farms have not been
financed as they should be. A
vast amount of tiling ought to
be done for at least two good
reasons. Tiled land becon es
more productive and prevents
hill-washing. Soil washing is
becoming alarming. as every
acre rendered unfit for use. low
ers our natural resources to that
extent.
There is no longer any doubt
but what a silo for the average
farm is a good investment.
Thousands IF acres should have
fertilizers to put them on good
working basis. Most of our
farms could be greatly benefited
by applying rock phosphate, and
nearly all need ground limestone.
These mean an outlay, but the
investment" must come ahead
of the returns" and that in
vestment is where the land bank
can help.
