Profits l. Their Slogan.

Get a litter Of pigs TO tho ton mark
in six months. That is the object OF
the Hoosier Ton Litter Club spon-
sored by the Indiana Livest Crk
Breeders Association and the Agri-
cultural Extension Department OF
Purdue University.
Already $50 men scattered over
so counties in Indiana have Joined
tho club The object IS 20 get a litter
of pigs to the ton markk inside Of
six months from narrowing date.
big utter-big profits Is the
message that IL is hoped the Ton Lit
ter club viii carry 10 Indiana farm
ers.
Gold Medals Given.
Gold medals will be given those
who reach the ton litter class; silver
medals 10 those who get hogs 20 the
I 500. 900 pound class. and bronze
medals to those who get hogs 10 the
.0OO-1 500 pound division.
This should prove an interesting
and profitable game and several hun
dred more farmers should identify
themselves with the club.
There is no money in small litters.
Records kept on % Indiana farms
last year by farm bureau members
i'm cooperation with Purdue animal
husbandry workers and county
agents that weanling pig in a litter
OF four costs twice az much as
weanling pig in litter OF seven or
eight. These records further show
that the man who markets a litter
OF seven rather than a litter OF four
makes AZ least 81 more per hum
dred on his hogs that the man who
makets a litter OF four.
II Can BE Done.
cav II be- done" is being asked
in all parts of the state. Yes. +. {.
| Caverly. Toulon. Illinois produced a
litter Of seven Poland China Pigs In
1919. which weighed 2.114 mounds in

aged 800 pounds each. What illinois
can do with swine Indiana can top.
\ This is evidenced by what happens

ally.

Counties in this vicinity are poorly

several farmers in this vicinity that

The first cable was completed
across the Atlantic from Trinity
Bay, Newfoundland. to Valencia,
ireland, in 1858. The cable, laid
after four failures, was $500 miles
long and cost $1,S34.500. The line
was opened by an exchange Of
greetings between Queen Victoria
and President Buchanan. Other
messages of an experimental ma
ture were sent, but at the end OF
six weeks the cable broke down
completely.
