"HoGs RUN INTO MONEY"

Moultrie Observer: The story of
the rise and growth of the packing
| business here and elsewhere in the
south sounds like a story from Ara
bian Nights, The announcement that
Swift & Company, at their Moultre
plant, paid two hundred and twenty
thousand dollars for hogs alone in
N six days illustrates how hogs run
INTO money. And this happen in a
'ountry that had no hogs for sale five
5ears ago. One hundred and twelve
airs Of hogs shipped into Moultrie in
me week sounds like the country may
De working alive with hogs, This is
more than a solid train load of eigh-
tcen cars loaded with hogs coming
n each day. 1t represents as many
rainlOads of meat and packing house
products going out in a week The to-
tai receipts for the week exceeded
ten thousand hogs. Cattle are not
mentioned in this transaction, though
the plant was doing its usual beef
business. Ten thousand head of hogs
coming to market where there was
no market five years ago and from
territory that had no hogs to sell at
that time. And yet, we imagine that
the hog receipts of today are little
Of nothing compared with what they
will be five years from now. The hog
business is just getting started The
farmers are learning how to raise
them. They are learning how to make
feed for them that lasts the year
round and how to protect them from
cholera.

dred pounds to pick had to bring a
high price on the market, especially
when fertilizers had scared to new
high figures and labor for cultivation
was almost unobtainable at anything
like reasonable price. Food products
that could be raised and harvested
only at an extortionate price for la
Dor had to be marketed at correspond
ingly high prices.
Even with the dawn of peace and
the prospect Of comparatively early
rehabilitation, farmers anticipated
that the labor shortage would continue
to be acute next year. They believed
that negro farm laDors who had been
in the military service would be loath
to return to agricultural pursuits.
+ FARMERS throughout Georgia nave
been making preparations to operate
on a decidedly reduced scale next
year in view of the prospects for little
relief in the labor situation.
The announcement from the state
commissioner Of commerce and labor
therefore, will be hailed with rejoic-
ing, for if the percentage indicated
by his statistics holds good. the ag-
ricultural operators will be able to
make their plans for the year on an
entirely different basis.

sLANDERINe THE PEANUT

Somebody in South Georgia persists
in slandering the peanut There is a
lamentation about the price hanging
around 500 ton and it is claimed
jhat the farmer can make nothing for
himself raising them and selling at
such a price That assertion is not
true. The farmer can raise them and
make money at 500 ton even in
these times of high prices That is a
thing just as sure as an individual
goes at II and gives his time honestly
and faithfully. The farmer can make
money growing peanuts al such a
price, and he should be glad of the
opportunity. He ought to hope that
this price stays up.
1t is not the price which has made
it hard for the farmer the past season
1t has been the weather and the lack
Of labor. There was a season in the
fall,--a long season, which was ideal
for threshing peanuts and many farm
: ers took advantage OF this weather.
soon a long rainy season followed and
to this good hour there are many
hundred bushels still in the stacks
in Crisp county. We assure that this
is the case all over the peanut grow
ing belt It is rather bad plight to
get in. The farmers who have been
| caught in this manner will hardly get
through with the old crop till the
dry winds of March come to their re,
lief Picking and threshing can be
done only in dry weather.
They were caught in this predica.
ment because they had no labor to
get through with. the, picking. Those
who were more fortunate went
through with The picking at the pro
per time. The lesson of the past sea
son has taught farmers not to pass
the dry fall days with their peanuts
still on the poles inthe fields They can
be cared for earlier at much more
handsome profit. And the peanut sea
son comes but one time a year Let
us grow them. even more of them
than we planted last year. They are
going to prove valuable crop. espe-
eially since we must reckon with the
boil weevil.

It's officials, about ninety per cent of
the men who were engaged in agri.
cultural pursuits, will resume this
line of activity upon their demobili-
cation. This applies not only to the
white selectmen but also to the ne
groes now in uniform.
One of the most serious phases Of
the agricultural problem in the south
since the mobilization of hundreds of
thousands of men from all walks of
life, has been the shortage of labor
for the proper cultivation of farms As
result of this shortage. agricultural
products have risen tremendously in
price. for the cost of labor mounted
enormously along with the cost of
every other adjunct necessary in the
production of a crop.
