ing therefore high-grade cattle and
hogs. He said thai we are getting
away from the razor back days and
emphasized the necessity of enlarging
! the business of raising better hogs.
When the boil weevil took the cotton
crop of his native county, Suwannee,
the farmers were able to fall back on
live stock which is today the leadins
asset of that county. When excessive
railroad rates take away the profits
from citrus groves or truck farms, il
is well to have improved live stock to
fall back on.
