TREASURE STATE FARM and LIVESTOCK
HOG VALUES Are UNDERGOING
GRADUAL, POSITIVE CHANGE

The method of establishing hog
values is undergoing a gradual but
positive change. For many years the
weight Of the animal has been the
major factor in determining a hogs
value. Today the big packers are
buying their droves with an eye to
the quality of the various cuts which
can be taken from the carcass. Hith-
erto, it had been the practice of hog
buyers to figure pork production on
the basis of the percentage Of carcass
yield. Now the packing house wants
to know what the hog carcass will
yield on the cutting table and the
relative quality Of hams. bellies.
shoulders and loins Is the principal
item in gauging the worth Of the pork
animal. The packer cannot put quail
ity into the meat that he buys. That
must be done by the breeder and feed
er.
Naturally, the hog raiser is anxious
to know what type of animal will pos
sess the quality in greatest proper
ton that the packers most desire. It
viii be the marketing Of that type OF
animal that will bring the greatest
returns to the producer. The history
that was written for swinemen by
the recent International Live Stock
exposition should serve to answer
that question to q large extent.
The description of the grand cham
pion carcas which, incidentally, was
q Berkshire, as given by the Breeders
Gazette Of December is worthy of
studious attention. Describing the
grand champion Berkshire barrow as
fitted to the minute, perfect in top
and bottom lines, thickly and smooth
~ covered throughout the Gazette
goes on to say, I'm the 200 to 800
pound class the Berkshire shown by
The VAULTS, Tallula, Ill.,, won first
higher proportion of lean to fat than
any other entry in the contest. The
Judge pronounced 1t the best carcass
that he had seen during his four
years experience as the hog carcass
judge" This would indicate that the
very heavy type Of hog is less desir-
able and that the animal which will
most easily develop 200 to 800
pounds live weight from which will
come high grade cuts that are in
greatest demand BY the trade. is the
ideal animal to breed.
Certainly. the feeder cannot put
quality into hog unless 1t is there
to begin with. There are four fac
tors on which quality is dependent.
They are firmness OF flesh, texture,
intermingling Of fat and lean. The
packer may have something to do
with the flavor. The feeder can at
feet the firmness of flesh, but the
texture Of lean and fat and the de-
gree to which they intermingle must

depend absolutely upon the heritage
that the hog has to start with. The
breed of hog that 10 exemplified by
the Berkshires is given those quail
tiles of heritage in q generous degree.
The ability of Berkshires to produce
nicely interlarded cuts, rich in lean,
is we'll known, and there is always q
demand for their products. During
the middle Of last month Armour &
Co. issued trade letter In which the
statement was made that their pork
business was being handicapped by q
deficiency in the hams and picnic
shoulders Of the weight and quality
that was needed to produce the best
pork product-the type OF ham and
shoulder, by the way. which the
Berkshire more uniformly produces.
The belly that is in greatest de-
mand should average about one and
one-half inches thick. eight to ten
inches wide. The best weight is In
the neighborhood Of six to eight
pounds, though there is some special
trade that demands weight as low as
four to six pounds, and some trade in
the east which prefers the eight to
ten pound size. The best bellies
should show no trace of wrinkles.
They are not heavy in hide and show
the firm white fat of the finished
hog properly intermingled with meaty
streaks Of lean. The eight to ten to
twelve pound grades of hams of
smooth. meaty and firm texture are
in greatest demand. The plump little
ham is most desired without about
one inch of fat at the center Of the
ham.
Picnic shoulders should conform to
ham standards and should weigh
from four to ten pounds. The loin
is the principal product from the an
imal that is sold fresh. and it should
weigh from eight to ten pounds The
modern consuming family insists on
obtaining from four to five chops to
the pound The eye Of this meat
should be thick, round and bullying so
as to give an attractive shape. That
Is brought about in varying degree,
according to the sQuareness Of the
top and the arch Of the rib in the
live hog.
From now on the demand of the
consuming public,-the men and
women who eat the product that the
farmer raises-is going to exact more
and more attention from the farmer
because the packer is going to have to
meet that demand and he is going to
buy. most readily. the live animal that
will enable him to do this. Packer
buyers are finding that Berkshires Of
fer an especially fine medium through
which the demands Of the consuming
public can best be satisfied, and farm
ers can we'll afford to study their
usefulness in selecting their future
breeding stock.

TAX REVISION
PROJECTSARE
TOBEPRESSED
Progressive" Republi-
cans and Democrats
Are Planning to
Join Forces.
CBy Associated Pressp

J WASHIEGTO&. Nov. 10.-T'hc press
| ing Of several important tax revision
proposals in the sixty-eighth congress
was forecast today by some leaders of
the progressive" republicans and the
democrats on basis of sharp changes ia
the sizes Of the majoritIes and roinori-
ties in the house and senate as a result
Of Tuesdays election. They said re-
vision propositions would come from
both the majority and minority sides.
Chief among the tax plans Of the re-
publican progressiYes is an impost on the
undistributed surpluses Of corporations,
affecting also stock dividends Such a
tax also is favored by the democrats. in
the view OF Representative Oldfield.
Arkansas. the minority whip and a
member Of the ways and means commit
tee. which deals with revenue matters.
Mr.. Oldfeld also expressed the opin-
ion that the democrats would favor re-
enactment Of the excess profits tax. but
in modified form; increased inheritance
taxes on a graduated scale and the i'm
position Of a gift tax in an effort to
reach those Of wealth seeking 60 avoid
fhe payment Of high surfaces through
gifts Of money to relatives.
These taxes have been opposed here
tofore by. administration Officers who
have made it plain that they have not
now in mind any general revision Of the
existing revenue Law. which was enact
ed late last year and which became gen
orally effective last January J.
Proponents Of the proposed changes
expressed confidence today, however.
that with the change in the house mem
bership in the new congress they would
have more than an even chance Of sue
cess.
There seems TO be more doubt in the
minds Of the leaders about the situation
in the senate, but they expressed hope
that with an increased democratic and
republican progressive vote. there, a
revision plan could be put through.

SIMPLICITY TO

Day Tribute.
(By Associated .Pressl

| WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-Simplicity
will characterize the official observance
! tomorrow Of the anniversary Of armistice
day-the day which President Harding iu
message to the American people to-
night, declared marked "the victorious
elimination Of our nations most impress
sive participation in the affairs cf the
| world"
Simple in contrast with the ceremonies
OF year ago in which the representatives
of the rulers and potentates of the world S
| most powerful nations joined, doing honor
tc Americas dead as typified in the un-
known soldier, little group will leave the
White House early tomorrow to lay a
wreath symbolizing the nations armistice
national cemetery of that unknown hero
1t will include the president and the
secretaries CT war and navy and the pill
grimage these three will make is expect
ed 10 establish a precedent to be followed
through the years.
Not to Forget Wilson
Also, simple but more informal will be
another event that will mark the day
the visit of group of friends and ad-
n1irers to the home in ''S'' street of Wood =
row Wilson, the nations war president.
This will be in accord with a custom es-
tablished last year, when several thous-
and, after paying tribute to the unknown
soldier went to the Wilson home and
showed the esteem in which they held the
former president. Last year they re-
ceived a simple little greeting and they
hope for the same tomorrow.
Observance of the day elsewhere
through the nation will be varied but in
the opinion OF the president as voiced in
his message, should make for appraisal
of the nations relationship to world af-
fairs.
Presidents Message
THE increasing enthusiasm with which
our people join in the annual observance
of armistice day" the president said
"enforces the conclusion that it is des-
tined to be one of the notable ahniver-
saries in our calendar and indeed. it well
deserves to be all of that, for it marks the
victorious elimination Of cur nations
most impressive participation in the af-
fairs OF the world. We shall not go amiss
if we seek to make our observance CT
this anniversary, not only this year, but
every year hereafter, an occasion for ap-
praiRal of our relationship to and partic-
ipation in those wider concerns which
involve the welfare of all mankind"
The visit CT the president to Airing
ton will be his first official act of the day.
Reaching the amphitheatre in Airing
ton. only the president and the two sec
retaries will pass beyond an enclosure
about the tomb of the unknown soldier.
without ceremony the president will ad-
vance beyond the two secretaries and
stepping up to the tomb. lay the wreath
upon in behalf of the American people.
The entire party will then withdraw, con-
cluding the official tribute TO the nations
dead Many organizations and ndivid-
uals however, are expected TO make [isit
to the tomb as a part OF their Observance
Of the day.
