PUREBRED SoWS NOT NEEDED
Boar Represents Differences Between
Years Of Hog Growing Success
or Failure.

Purebred sOws for the production OF
profitable market hogs are unnecessary
and Inst as much pork can be made
from a herd OF good grade sows, pro-
vided they are mated with a purebred
boar, as such sire will imprint his
own characteristics indelibly upon his
filters. He represents the differences
between years of hog growing success
or failure and by his continuous use
upon grade sOws, il will take but a
short time to make the herd equal to
purebred in the ability TO get big
gains and quick finish.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
More wheat should be sown this
fall than was the average in pre-war
years, but not so much should be SOwn
as was sown last year. This is the
outstanding fall farming recommenda-
ton of the United States department
Of Agriculture, which Is watching the
changes Of world supply and demand
while European countries are getting
back to normal in food production and
thus affecting the market for Ameri-
can products. The departments sug.
gestlOnS are based on the observa-
lions of specialists who were sent
abroad to report on foreign conditions
and probable needs, and on the most
extensive reports II has been possible
to obtain from other sources in this
country and other countries.
As to winter wheat, the department
suggests that 42,000OOO acres be sown
this fall to this crop, and that 10000
600 acres be sown In 1920 to spring
wheat. making a probable aggregate
production in 1920 of S30,OO0,OOO bush
els, of which 2OO,OOO,OOO bushels would
be available for export after home
needs are met. This production would
approximately equal the average yield
Of wheat in the United states for the
five years 1915 to 1919, inclusive. The
five-year average is thought to be a
safe guide for American farmers.
Suggested ACREAGE for Wheat,
The suggested acreage for fall-sOwn
wheat is approximately IS per cent
Of the area sown in the fall of 1918,
and is about the same as was sown
in the fall of 1917. The suggested area
for spring wheat is approximately IS
per cent Of the area sOwn in each of
the last two years. The combined acre
age Of winter and spring wheat sug-
gested for 1920 is about SO per cent
of the acreage sown for the 1919 crop,
slightly more than the acreage sOwn
for the bumper crop Of 1915 and about
4 per cent less than the area sown for
the 1918 crop.
Winter Rye.
The pressure of war demands for |
rye has ceased, and 1t does not seem
probable that exports next year will |
greatly exceed 25,00O,000 bushels. |
Consumption Of rye in this country
was stimulated by the war to about |
5O.OOO,O0O bushels. II this rate OF con.
is maintained. a crop OF Is.
100000 TO S0,OO0,OO0 bushels would be
necessary to provide $4,000. 900 bushels
FOR export. indicating a total acreage
Of 100000 to 100000 acres, In com

ably decrease as compared with the
past year, as the European countries
increase their production of live stock
towards the pre-war production"
Other factors affecting American ex-
port trade are rates Of exchange, which
In many cases are decidedly unfavor-
able to those countries most in need
of our meat and meat products; cam
paigns being waged In the European
countries for increased production and
decreased consumption; prices OF
meat products In this country as cOno-
pared with the prices In other coun-
tries having meats for export; avail
able ocean tonnage for shipping from
other countries.
However. pork exports at least prob
ably will be greatly In excess next
year Of the pre-war annual export. The
European countries probably will re-
quire two years TO get back to pre-war
pork production, and their present
needs are great.
Poultry.
Pre-war production OF poultry In
most European Countries, the depart
ment says, will soon be resumed. EN-
phasls in this country is placed Oh
more efficient methods of production.
Whether increased production should
be undertaken must necessarily de-
pend on local conditions as to feed,
labor, and other factors.
