BLOUNT
FARM NEWS

The poland china breeders of this
County met at the Courthouse Satur
day morning, and discussed the best
methods to promote the interest of
their business. They took list of all
purebred pigs available for pig club
work. Several counties besides our
own are wanting Poland China pigs
for club work, and it was thought
we'll to find out just what we would
be able to supply for that purpose.
1t was also planned to ut on two sales
pof Poland Chinas in August. One If
these to be the rivate sale of Mr.. J.
S. Hutton, and the other to be ut on
by the Poland China Association, to
which sale all the breeders would
consign who had good hogs to spare.
The dates of these sales will be an
nounced later. 1t was further plan
ned to hold an inspection trip to each
of the breeders of poland china hogs
by all Association members and any
other men interested in poland china
hogs to join in the trip. This was a
very good meeting, characterized By
fine spirit and resulting in some
good things being planned for this
work.
The Holstein breeders met in the
afternoon on March 9th, and com
pleted their temporary organization.
A new member was added to the U,
ganization, and the qestion of bring
ing in more holstein cows discussed.
Not enough cows have been listed so
far to justify the trip for them. The
question was left open, for few
days, and any dairyman wanting to
get IN one or more purebred Holstein
cows, should see or call Mr.. George
Painte, Mr.. j. l.. Clark, Mr.. P. W
Moore or county agent S. G. Aberna
thy. If we are going to bring in these
cattle this Spring it is time that we
were getting about it.
1t Is good time to get in the dairy
game, and for the Maryville section,
with the market prospects looking
brighter than they ever have looked,
it seems that it would be an easy ma
tier for us to get up some interest in
more Holstein for this section.
At the meeting of the County
Council of Agriculture, the work that
has been done in the purebred Sire
Campaign was checked up. 1t was
reported that fifteen of the twenty
one purebred angus bulls sold at the
recent angus sales in Blount county
remained in the county. The number
of scrub and grade bulls which have
been castrated or are being sent to
the meat market will reach at least
twenty five. This was considered
very good beginning. as the work is
just begun. That will leave about IS
such scrubs and grades yet in the
county. Some of these will want
some He~fords snrnp Tor
seys or Holsteins. That is for these
