FARM NEWS NOTES
BY County Agent Foard.
Farm Records Show Cost Of Pork
Production.

Production.
Four questions interesting to the
producing farmer today are
these:
l. How many pounds of pork can l
produce from a bushel of corn?
2. What does it cost me to produce
100 pounds Of pork?
3. What average price do ! get for
100 pounds of pork and what price per
bushel do ! get for the corn fed hogs |?
a. Do you believe the use of hog
pasture crops would cheaper my cost
of pork production?
These questions have been answer
ed accurately by several Missouri
farmers who have kept farm records
in cooperation with the Office of
Farm Management Demonstrations
U. S. Department of Agriculture.
For instance, one farmer found that
it cost him $500 to produce 100
pounds of pork, producing $15.65
pounds of pork per bushel of corn
fed, but he fed with the corn 81
pounds of tankage.. That was in 1916
and he marketed his hogs for 1927
per hundred and received Sill per
bushel for his Germ fed to hogs. At
the same time corn was selling for
So cents per bushel.
In answer to the question of the
profits in using hog pasture in con-
nection with pork production, the av-
erage of seven farmers records show
where alfalfa, clover or rape pasture
was used, the production cost of 100
pounds of pork was $500. So bush
els of corn were required to produce
100 pounds of pork. Corn was sold
in the form Of pork at $1.66 per
bushel and the margin Of profit was
81 per 100 pounds of pork.
Farm accounts is one Of our main
projects of work for the year 1918.
| have engaged the services of a spe-
cialist from the Agricultural Exten-
sion service from February 18th to
March End. We will be limited to
about 10 farmers in this work for the
first year. l would like to have any
farmer in the county desiring this ser
vice drop me line or call as early as
possible. Understand it is free.

COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES

The continued severe weather is
having a very depressing effect on
the attendance throughout the schools
of the county, especially the rural
schools where the roads are not well
broken and where the majority of the
pupils have to travel quite distance.
AS before indicated in this column
the crying need in rural schools is for
regular attendance. In a number of
instances the reports coming in from
the country schools at this time show
an attendance of less than so per cent.
Such attendance is of course intol-
cradle to successful school work and
until this condition can be remedied
by some means the majority of the
country children will be compelled to
enter the rate of life lily prepared and
absolutely unable 10 cope with their
cousins of the town schools.
1t is not too early for prospective
applicants for teachers certificates to
begin preparing for the March ak
aminations which will be held on the
LIST and End of March, next. Present
indications are that the demand for
teachers will be harder than ever to
supply this fan and it is the earnest
desire of the school officials that dire
necessity may not compel the employ
ment of unprepared and incompetent
teachers.
List of pupils receiving attendance
certificates from this office, contin-
ued: Lottie and Willie Moon; Evelyn
Gladene and Mabel Hall of the French
Village school; Sterlyn Goodson.
Preston Sonar and Pearl Strauser of
the Frankclay school.
For the school year ending June 30,
1916, the number of pupils gradual
ing, from the common schools was:
male 80; female, Ill; total, 204. For
the school year ending June 80, 1917,
the number of pupils graduating from
the common schools was: male, 1873;
female, 1853; total, POI. An increase
of 8! in the number Of graduates is
noted.
An extract from the report of the
Of the Bonnie Terre schools follows:
II have examined the report of the
inspector and am pleased to continue
your high school on the list of APPROX
ed high schools of the first class. The
inspector commends the excellent spir-
it of the student body and the goon
beginning of the work which both
teachers and students have made. 1t
speaks well for superintendent and |
faculty when a student body enters
into the work intellectually from
the very beginning. / am pleased to
learn that large addition to- the
present building is under construc-
zion. The present building is crowd
ed andsunfavorable but this can be ov-
erlooked because Of the assurance of
relief in the near future" The State
superintendent goes on to recon-
mend that on the completion of the
new building that careful inventory
be taken of the library and science
equipment of the school with a viewf
20 its replenishment where conditions
have made the same necessary.

COUNTRY BOYS NOT
PHYSICALLY SUPERIOR

According to records Of the salec-
tive service, country boys do not show
much physical superiority over those

aminations 2B.d7 Fer cent Of tho city
boys were rejected, as against 279G
per cent Of The country boys.
