important part live stock plays in

onstrated to them the increased val
ue of purebred cattle, hogs, and other
live stock. The growth of sentiment
along these lines is indicated by the
following figures, showing the num-
Der of live stock brought into county
agent territory thru the influence of
the agents: Purebred horses and
mules, 1902; purebred and high
grade dairy cattle, 22.299 purebred
and high-graIe beef cattle, 32.709;
purebred hogs, 29, 636;purebred sheep

Work of County Agents.

At the suggestion and under the
supervision of county agents, 120, 900
adult farmers in the South conducted
demonstrations in one or more more
lines of farm work during the season
1916. Probably ten times that many
we're directly influenced to practice
better methods of farming as result
of these demonstrations. At the
field meetings or schools held in the
demonstration field it is the custom
to invite the neighboring farmers to
take part in the discussions and thus
to extend the agents influence. Dur
ing the season of 1916 demonstra-
tions we're conducted as follows:
Corn, 543,S89 acres; cotton, 333,615
acres; tobacco, 1858 acres; small
grains, such as wheat, rye, oats, bar
ley, and so on, 282,074 acres; va
rious hay, forage, and cover crops,
271,269 acres; summer legumes
planted for hay, seed, soil improve
ment, and other purposes, 474,479
acres; potatoes, 1913 acres; and old
pastures renovated, 1929.
The text and the variety of the
advice and assistance the southern
county agent is called upon to give
is indicated by the following in
formation taken from the county
agents reports: Thru the influence
of the agents farmers were induced
to remove stumps on 1892 acres
to better prepare the land for the
use of improved implements; 218,9S9
acres were drained by tile and ditch
and 463,S56 acres were terraced;
home gardens were established or i'm
proved on 26,754 farms; the number
of pieces of improved farm machinery
and implements purchased thru the
influence of county agents was 3d.
3S9; and orchard work of many kinds
was done, including spraying, prun-
ing, and other necessary treatment,
the demonstrations in this work in
volving 544,658 trees.
Considerable attention was given
by county agents in the South to pro-
noting livestock production, 1857
new silos having been constructed to
aid in this work, and 2,S29 dipping
watts erected for the control of live
stock pests. Farmers Instructed CONF
corning the proper care of farm ma
nure numbered 45,154, and the esti-
mated saving during the season APP
proximated 100000 tons. 1t be-
ing necessary to supplement the use
of farm manures and the green crops
for soil-improvement purposes with
commercial fertilizers, 127,131 farm
ers were instructed in the mixing
and use of the commercial product
and LII communities were aided by
agents in purchasing commercial fer
filters on cooperative basis, re-
sulting in an estimated saving of
s2so,76e.
In addition to the greatly increased
yields obtained on demonstration
areas, many thousands of farmers
were shown conclusively how to in
crease their producing power and
place their farms on a better business
basis. AS result. plans of operation
are better balanced than before, ac-
cording to Department of Agriculture
officials; more farmers understand

HOW BOYS GROW PRIZE PIGS.
Motion Pictures Show Methods of De-
partment for Increasig Pork Supply

partment Tor mcreasig PORK supply
AS. a means Of helping TO increase
the PORK supply. the United States
Department of Agriculture has just
released to the motion picture thea
tiers, thru one of the large motion
picture companies. a film showing
the work Of the boys pig clubs which
the department is organizing in all
parts of the country in cooperation
with the extension divisions of the
State agricultural colleges.
HOW THE BOYS ARE TAUGHT.
The film shows methods of in
structing farm boys, and in some in
stances girls, who have Joined the
agricultural clubs, how to raise bet
ter pigs and the methods used by
club members in carrying out in
structions... The first lesson taught in
the film story is that 1t costs no more
to feed and care for the pig of care
fully selected stock than the scrub,
while the result in meat produced
is greatly in favor of the well-bred
animal. The picture shows further
how to feed and care for the pigs,
how to protect them from disease.
and how to shelter them from the
inclemency of winter and the heat
of the summer. The results of wise
selection and intelligent care are
shown in the well-groomed, fat,
healthy porkers wearing the prize
ribbons they have won at county and
State fairs.
The first pig club was organized in
Louisiana in 1910. Now approx
mately $4,000 members are enrolled
in the pig clubs thruout the country.
POSSIBILITIES OF HOG PRODUC-
TION DEMONSTRATED.
1.-THE practicability OF producing
rapid increase in the pork supply and
of bringing greatly increased profits
to the farmers who produce it are
lessons which the Bureau of Animal
Industry wishes to call to the atten-
tion of all farmers" says an official
of that bureau, land it has been
found that education of the farm
youths is bringing about valuable in
direct education of their elders in
the possibilities of more profitable
hog lots.
ut has become urgently impor-
tant, as war measure, that this
country greatly increase its produc-
tion of foodstuffs, especially of meats
and fats. They are needed for our
people at home, for our armies
abroad, and for the armies and peo-
pie of the entente nations. While
the Department of Agriculture is
working hard to increase our supply
of beef, effective increases in the
number of the county's cattle is
necessarily slow, while much more
rapid results can be obtained in the
production of pork, as well as NUT
ton"
The pig club film is the second
of a series of releases of official films
of the United States Department of
Agriculture to be made bimonthly,
according to the terms of contract
which the Secretary of Agriculture
has made with the film company
which is to distribute them. Ar
rahgements are also being made for
the distribution of these films by
the department itself to educational
institutions.
