producing more per man, for his mum.
Der of working hours is double each
week that of the factory and mine EN-
)plOyee.
With prices of farm products con-
tinuing as they are. it is evident that
the farming business is first to react
under the Fl. c.. l.. Investigations. The
wide spread in prices between the raw
and finished products can not exist
long without the food supply being les
sened and the general prosperity of
the corn belt states lost.
Crawford county will notice the eff
fects of IL cent hogs. Last year the
hog census showed that our 1000 farm
ers raised about 100000 hogs. The
pig crop this year is at least rs per
cent short of last year, or about $780,
900 head. Assuming that 10000 head
will be marketed this winter weighing
$50 pounds and will bring II cents per
pound net, some of the packers pre-
dict 10 cent hogs, the receipts will be
about three million dollars. The re-
ceipts to the county for hogs last year
exceeded five million dollars.
The reduction of prices Of farm
products is not surprise to the farm
er. He has realized that % cent hogs
was big price, yet he knows that ~
cent hogs was not out of proportion to
prices of other commodities. When
the lower price of farm products comes
the farmers do expect the prices in
other things to go down as we'll.
Farmer organizations are working
to maintain a steadier price level of
farm products. Present market quota
tons seem to show that they have
failed in every attempt. AS matter
of fact the farmers organizations have
much. They have en-
larged their organizations to such an
extent that they are now ! a force
heretofore not known. AS an Organi-
cation this system of marketing can
be developed to eliminate such fluctu-
ating markets. They can better in.
form themselves OF. the true market
situation and regulate somewhat the
movement of the raw products from
the farm to the terminal markets. AS
an organized force the farmers can
ask and will insist that the industrial
and commercial world carry their
share of the responsibilities in bring
ing about universal lowering of
prices of all commodities.
The farmer today is business man
and not hayseed. He must either
make his enterprise pay or quit the
game. Farm owners may farm their
own farms i'm shiftless way and not
have to worry when poor crops and
cheap prices come for they can live
on the interest of their investment,
but the farmer who must pay interest
or rent on the high priced land, how
ever, is concerned about the price he
is to receive for his products. The
sales from his farm products must ex-
coed the cost of producing them. The
farmer can not produce cheaper I'M
less he can secure his hired labor and
his working and living materials cheap
err. The real situation is, prices Of
farm products can not remain low, for
if they do, production is automatically
reduced by the farmer having to go
out of business.

u selection OF only the most vigorous
birds. Selection of poultry stock is as
essential as selection of breeding stock
of the purebred herds. Lack of SAM
tation and crowded and improper
housing also weakens the vitality of
the flock.
On farms where the farm flock is
ailing all sick birds should be killed
and burned The healthy birds should
be removed to new quarters until all
old rubbish has been destroyed and
the poultry houses thoroughly disin-
fected. Plenty of fresh air and sun
shine should be let into every chicken
house. There is no disinfectant that
is as deadly to germs as the sun. Scat
ter lime thoroughly over the poultry
yards 90.
The drinking water for the poultry
should contain bichloride of mercury
tablets. Use 7.3 grain tablet to one
gallon of water. Be sure the tablet is
thoroughly dissolved before the water
is poured into the drinking pan as BIZ
chloride of mercury is very poisonous
| in concentrated form.
The Farm Bureau office has num-
Der of bulletins which describe poul-
try diseases If your flock contains
droopy chickens and you are losing
them either fast or slow, call or write
for a bulletin. They are free for the
|asking.
I Another way that the Farm Bureau
can help you is to secure these poul-
TRY specialists as it did for Mr.. 'Blume's
community. If groups of meetings
could be arranged in different parts OF
the county these specialists may be
obtained free of charge. They demon
strate how to Gull out the. non-laying

products of the farm are on decline
with the exception of butterfat and
poultry products, while the prices of
all manufactured products continue to

behind supply and demand are other
factors which determine prices to a

One of the largest manufacturing
concerns of mems clothing recently
issued bulletin explaining why mems
clothing was so high now and would
be higher in the spring. Materials, of
course, have advanced in price, but
higher wages for the tailor together
with shorter hours were given as the
big reason.
Labor union officials are working
for this very thing. Higher wages,
shorter hours, less production. Less
production curtails the supply, conse-
quently the demand is increased.
Evidently with hogs at II cents and
on the decline, there must be an over
supply. The farmer is continuing his
12-14l16 hours day the same as be-
fore. While the farmer may not be

PROGRESS IN NEGRO EDUCATION

schools at its recent meeting in

Southern Progress.
The Associations resolution on
Southern progress in Negro educa-
ton follows:
1--WE note with pleasure general
increase in the interest in Negro
education in the Southern states as
is shown in the encouraging growth
in the number of new modern and
well equipped school buildings now
appearing in Southern cities; in the
remarkable number of new sanitary,
and well-appointed school houses in
the country districts that have been
built in recent years, especially in
Louisiana; in the growing interest
in better-trained teachers as is evil
denced by the surprisingly large num-
Der of summer schools and teachers
institutes conducted for ColOred
teachers this year; in the tendency
here and there to increase teachers
salaries, and to lengthen school
terms; and in the evident intention,
especially illustrated in North Caro-
lima, to provide high schools for Ne
gro youth at public expense, and as
has been shown in exceptional growth
of county training schools for Negro
youth in the rural districts; and,
whereas these improvements have
come, not only through public init
iative, but also through the hearty
cooperation and financial assistance
of the Colored people, we recommend
these encouraging examples of the
hearty cooperation of the public
school authorities and the Colored
patrons to all sections of the South
and urge that such helpful efforts be
the education of all Colored children
at public expense shall have been
made.
A Plea for Higher Education.
Whereas, owing to the accepted
separation of Colored and white peo-
ple. the needs of Colored for intel
ligent leadership, for professional
service, and especially for competent
well prepared teachers increaes the
development of the race, we urge that
high-school training should be pro
vided for Colored youth in all South
ern cities and in each county as is
proposed for example, in North Caro-
lima. Whereas, college training is
also necessary to the proper educa-
! ton Of these much-needed leaders
