DA|RYMEN FEAR
CREAM STATIONS
IN MISSISSIPPI

JACKSON Miss, March 81 (SpO
Serious efforts to install in Missis-
sippi the cream station method of
handling dairy interests have precipi-
tated situation which is causing grave
concern to progressive dairymen. tx
tension Dairy Husbandman l.. A Hig-
gins has prepared a brief statement
which should claim the attention of
everyone interested in dairying.
The statement, follows:
eat present Mississippi dairy inter
ests are practically free from the men
ace of cream. stations and the many
handicapS which result from the sta
ton system. 1t behooves all those who
have an interest in the general devel-
opment of this industry in the future to
use all their influence to prevent the
station system from getting a start in
the state. For If there Is any way of
checking the many evils of this sys-
tenn wien it is once started, other
states, which have this system, have
failed to find the remedy. A man rep
resenting a centralizer, has recently
been making survey of the possibili-
ties in Mississippi for their system of
doing business.
may be OF service to the two or three
COW town farmer, but why accommo-
date these few people with a system
which will demoralize the dairy bust
ness, as a whole, in your county for
years to come. A system which is not
easily gotten rid of when once estab-
lished. If there is a possibility of
these two or three-cow people becom-
ing dairymen, it is generally possible
for them to add three or four cows to
their present herd and prepare to de-
liver their products in regular man
ner. If they can't do this, let's en-
courage them to keep the products
from the two cows at home for family
consumption You will generally find
that the home table will provide the
best market for such products"

JACKSON, Miss, March q. (SpL)--
On March 20 and 80 the city of Jack

gathering OF live stock interests that
ever met In this state in the form of
the Mississippi Cattle Feeders associ-
alton. On each day there will be in
the afternoon a monster breed sale, a
Hereford sale on March 90 and an An
gus sale. on March go
Several considerations combine to
make this the most significant meet
ing of Its kind ever held in Mississippi
The program offered. includes a strik-
ing array of talent, both in the way
of experts in livestock development and
in the way of prominent growers of cat
tie. The problems before the live stock
men are of immediate importance, es-
pecially the matter of growing feedstuff,
OF providing pasturage, of systematizing
management, and, most of all, of stiff
ening up the whole industry at a time
when, because of low prices and made
quate feed, some breeders are a trifle
discouraged.
The cattle offered in the sale will
furnish excellent opportunity for Mis-
sissippi cattle growers to purchase good
pure bred stuff for herd building. Both
sets in the sales have been carefully
inspected by Beef Cattle Specialist e.
+. Elliot, of the bureau of animal in
dustry and have been pronounced of
high grade.
The officers of the association are
as follows: John Anderson, of Flora

Upton BANKS TO
DISTRIBUTE PIGS
TO FARMER BOYS
institutions Have Agreed to-
Give Eighty Pure Bred Reg
iStered gifts to the Youths
by Endless Chain System.

CONVICTION, Tenn, March 27. (Spl.)
The banks of Upton county have
agreed to distribute 80 pure bred, regis
tered gifts with boys of this county on
the endless chain system to promote
the growing of pure-bred hogs in Tip
ton county.
The endless chain system is no exper-
lment and has been used successfully
for several years in all parts Of the
United States. The plan is to give a
pure-bred gilt to a boy between the
ages of 10 and 1S who agrees to care
for this gilt under the supervision of
the county agent, keeping accurate rec
ord of all feed and cost of feed in a
record book furnished by the United
States department of agriculture He
also agrees to show the gilt at fair
to be held in the fall of this year, de-
llvering the record book at the end OF
the year to the county agent with COM
plete record. Out of the first litter far
roWed the boy agrees to return two gifts
at weaving time to the bank that fur
nished the original pig; the bank agrees
to place these two gifts with two boys
next year who will be members of the
Boys Agricultural club, of 1921. Each
member of this club also agrees to grow
one acre of corn and keep a record
as with the pig.
With 80 pigs distributed on this plan
in very few years Upton county will
be stocked with hundreds of good blood
ed hogs.
This system was started in Hopkins
county, Kentucky, in 1915, with 40 pigs
At that time lit would have been hard
to find car of good hogs in the coun-
ty The Duroc-Jersey hog was select
ed, and with this plan still in opera

where, and it is an easy matter to make
