rect competition. the size of the cot

ures Importantly. The United States
Bureau OF Markets has shown by
charts that oil and lard prices move
in sympathy. 1t estimates further that
about one billion pounds OF high grade
cottonseed oil Is now made into lard
substitutes annually, and that one hun
dred pounds of lard usually equals the
winter value Of 100 pounds Of the oil.
In the late summer. however, 100
pounds are customarily worth only
about 40 pounds Of the Oil.
The 1920 cotton crop was the largest
in the past six years. This means a
liberal supply OF cottonseed oil also
greater demand from the prosperous
negroes for salt pork, and this should
in measure help sustain hog prices.
The effect of the different sized cotton
crops on the price of hogs might
prove a profitable study to corn belt
farmers.
In Belgium and ireland.
The latest foreign advices indicate
that Belgium now has 10 per cent
more livestock than at the close of
1919, but is still below her pre-war nor
NAL. Her present stock of 100000
hogs is so per cent under that of 1914
and her 100000 cattle is 100000 head
less than she had at the outbreak of
the war. Belgium now reports total

years ago. 1t is expected that Belgium
will have recouped all her live stock

No country in Europe Jared better

Ireland had the greatest market on
the globe to supply during the entire
struggle; was free to make its own
prices on every product of the soil or

CONSUMPTION. Today Ireland has about
100000 more cattle than at the open

OF horses. The demand for pork and
the high prices paid for it resulted in
large reduction in hogs, which are

The Farm and Farmer
az WILLIAM r. sANeoRN -

The first of the 1921 series of Big
Type Poland China sales in the Rich
mond radius was held by that veteran
breeder, Frank A. Williams. at Fair
field farm near Williamsburg on We'd
nesday, Jan. 10. This was exclusive
ly bred SOW offering in which some
of the best blood of the breed was rep.
resented. A very fair crowd was
present and the bidding was quite
spirited. in spots, there being consid.
cradle competition for the tops" in
the catalogue.
J. A. Shelton and Son, Of Manila,
Ind, who are always represented at
try, paid the top dollar at the Williams
Second, tried SOW, cost them $3.50
and they picked up a couple of choice
gifts for little less money.
The offering was not large, only 81
head shown The noteworthy feature
of the sale was the interest shown by
Wayne, Darke and Preble county farm
ers, men intent on building up their
herds. Union county was also repre-
scented at Nthe ring side, that county
having a Big Type club that is be-
ginning to make Poland China history.
Coils. Joe Flescher and Tom Commit
were the auctioneers and Harry Gil
bert, of the Second National, Rich
mond, made the settlements. The
average price" of SOS was considered
fairly satisfactory, in view of the fact
that the Williams sale was the ice
breaker of the year, and because the
offering was comprised principally of
young gifts.
Packers Make Poor showings.
All reports by Chicago packers SO
far issued for 1920 are eloquent in
their emphasis of the drastic readjust-
ment experienced by that industry last
year. The Armour report, just now
available for comparison, shows that
it was only by drawing on reserves
accumulated by it's foreign subsidiar-
les that the Armour house could show
even a small profit. The extent to
which the foreign reserves were utiliz-
ed is not shown but the statement is
made that Gin view of our losses in
this country and on that of the com.
panys total business, amounting to
many millions of dollars on that por'
ton of it representing sales in and ex
ports from the United States, this step
was necessary"
The report covers the fiscal year to
last Oct 80, and the showing is of but
"a percent profit on the average net
capital invested. Total sales for the
fiscal year were approximately $780,
OO0, 700, a shrinkage of $138,000,000 as
compared with 1919. The pressure
was so great last year that the Arm
ours marketed $60,000,000 worth OF
convertible notes, these being prac,
tically loan to help finance their
worldwide operations.
Nor were the Armours alone in this
style of financing. Every big Chicago
packer followed suit, and this was also
the case with some of the other more
important western houses at Kansas
City and Omaha. This goes to show
that one may have tremendous bust
ness, and all kinds of money, and still
have to borrow ready cash to keep
the wheels turning.
Cottonseed Oil and HeDs.
Because Is percent of the average
hog is lard the price with that article
has much to do with the price of hogs
Speaking in round numbers the big
packers now refine one billion pounds
of lard every year, to which local
