SUMTER co. HOGS
WORTH $l5O,OOO
A YEARS SALES
This Exclusive Of Half
That Paid For Fancy
Stock

One hundred and fifty thousand
dollars worth of hogs, sold by Sumter
county farmers during the past year,
exclusive of the large sums paid for
blooded stock disposed of by the Aries
Plantation company at the several big
sales held there, have added a new
and profitable money crop to the in
dustry Of this section. The total
worth of Sumter's hog crop this year
is indicated in figures announced to-
day by George o. Marshall, county
agent, who states that $64,402.98 was
received by farmers for hogs sold in
cooperative sales held at Plains since
Feb. 7, when the first grading pen in
the county was erected there. Ac-
cording to Marshall, farmers of Plains
community earned an added profit of
$4,000 through the use of the grad
ing pen and the inauguration of the
cooperative sales, this extra earning
being secured through the advantage
of small producers selling in car lots
direct to the big packers, all of whom
are regularly represented at these
sales.
Added to the total sales of the
Plains pen must be probably $4,000
given to farmers who sold their hogs
independently of the sales to Ameri-
Gus buyers and the numerous timer
ant hog and cattle buyers who regu-
larly visit Sumter and buy large num-
bers of hogs and cattle from the
smaller producers. Not only must
this be included in the total revenue
derived from hog sales by Sumter
farmers, but the sales of hogs for
breeding purposes must also be con-
sidered. From this source alone they
derived approximately $4,000, ac-
cording to Marshall, who negotiated
many sales for farmers who installed
herds of blooded hogs during the
year, these animals being sold at
prices ranging from $25 to 800 a
head, with a vast majority of the
number netting their owners around
$75 each.
Prices paid for hogs at the coop
erative sales, according to Marshall,
ranged from IL 1-2 to 20 cents, the
former being the lowest price paid at
any sale and the latter the highest.
Buyers included Swift & Co., Ar
mour & Co. several smaller packing
houses, and one or two Plains con-
Germs.
Accurate figures, showing the total
value of the fine hogs sold for breed
ing purposes exclusively at Aries dur
ing the year are not available at this
time, but it is safe to assert not less
than $4,000 was paid for Durocs
and Hampshires marketed by the fa-
NOUS farm, and which will be used ex-
clusively in the extended production
of hogs both here and elsewhere.
These figures, therefore, show that
hog .raisers who produced their pigs
for pork alone received approximately
$150,000 for their crop, or a sum
equal to about $50 bales of cotton
even at prevailing high prices, besides
utilizing much waste land, all of
which has been greatly enriched and
improved thereby.
During the coming year Mr.. Mar
shall will erect grading pens and con-
duct sales at Leslie and Americus,
the pen here being almost already
finished, and it is expected this will
give added imeptus to the hog-raising
industry here.

WOOD SILENT ON POLL.

When he was asked for a state
ment on the congressional poll
which chose him, by a large MAJ
jority, as the next presidential
candidate, General Wood made
the following statement:
"My job is here in the army. l

remarks but when l do I confne
myself to the subject of American
ism. I have nothing to say about
Congress or anything outside of

FRANCE BITTER ON TREATY.
A leading Paris paper, COM
menting on the American senate S
action on the peace treaty, says;
"It is the American senate which
has assumed the work of ,destruc-
tion, to which it devotes itself with
method and consistency. 1t has
just adopted a preamble to the mo-
ton for ratification which demands
the approval of the American res
ervations by three of the great
allied powers before the treaty
shall become ratified by the Unit
ed States. 1t has then approved
the first reservation which, in fact,
destroys the league, since the
United States, according to this
reservation, will alone be qualified
to Judge, when it wishes to with
draw from the league, whether it
has fulfilled its obligations under
the covenant"

GERMANY AND u. S. REVOLT
Gustav Noske, minister of de-

he discussed the possibility of

comment: "a revolution in Amer
