Pork Up!

Your nose may be battered. your jaw
bone nicked:
Your visage may be sight,
But always remember you're never
licked
While still you can stand and fight.
No matter how badly they mess your
map,
1t won't be beyond repair.
And there still is chance that you IL
win the scrap.
AS long as the punch is there.
You'll make mistakes and you'll do
things wrong.
The best of them always do;
But as soon as you get to going strong
Your grit will see you through.
They smashed Paul Jones to fare
you-wen
Put he didn't observe goodnight"
He merely paused in his tracks to yell
That he'd just begun the fight.
There'l be plenty of folks to peddle
gloom.
There'u be plenty of folks to say
That they see the terrible day Of doom
Hurrying on its way.
But the fellow who knows that the
fight is hard.
And still has the nerve to grin.
And never gets ratified and drops his
guard.
Is the fellow that is going to win!

Crop Value Per Acre Drops
so Per Cent 10 Two Years

Washington, D. c.. Jan. 20.-The
average value per acre of 10 crops
constituting nineteenth of all crop
production dropped from $35.76 to
$14.48, or so per cent, during the
two years 1919-21. announced the
United States Department of Agri-
culture today. This decline is un-
paralleled within the scope of
records of the department dating
back to 1866.
During the years Immediately fol-
lowing the Civil War the general
trend of the average was downward,
dropping from about $14 or SIS per
acre to less than So in 1896, the low
OF that time. An advance then set
in and by 1913 the average value per
acre was $16.49. The following
year there was a slight decline to
1884 caused by the low price Of
cotton, but in 1916, the year before
the United States entered the World
War, the average advanced to $22.5S
or $6.14 in two years.
BY far the greatest gain in one
wear in average value per acre for 10
crops was $10.59 from 1916 to 1917
the average for the latter year be-
ing $33.25. The average for 1913
was $33.73 The average continued
to rise and in 1919 reached the peak
of s35.76. A decline then set in,
the average dropping $21.2S, or 50
per cent, in the two years that fol-
lowed.

SELF-FEEDERS ARE POPULAR
Devices eliminate Great Portion OF
Labor Involved and Insure
Uniform Results.

elf-feeders for hogs have come into
great popularity among farmers and
feeders largely because they eliminate
a great portion of the labor involved
In feeding and insure more uniform
results and gains from the hogs.
Hogs in the wild state were settled
animals. living upon such feeds as
w0Ild satisfy their appetites, and I'M
der dOmeSticatiOn they seem to thrive
best when fed by the same principle.
The marked success of the self-feeding
principle of hog raising is largely due
to the fact that they may eat an
abundance of those feeds which viii
nourish them to the best advantage
The self-feeder should be designed
primarily TO keep an available supply
of grain constantly before the hogs,
RGd at the same time protect the con-
tents against waste due TO wind and
rain. A self-feeder consists of a hop
per TO hold the feed and a trough be-
low it into which the grain flows as
the hogs eat it. Complete plans for
the Iowa self-feeder can be obtained
from the extension department, Iowa
State college, Ames, Iowa.
The Aberdeen weekly. [volume] (Aberdeen, Miss.) 1878-1933, 1922-01-13

1,070 pounds, the gain amounting to
2S4 pounds in a period of TIA days
The average quantity of feed consumed
for 100 pounds of gain was $50 pounds
of grain, 81 pounds of commercial con-
centrates, 391 pounds Of dry roughage
such as hay and corn fodder. 500
pounds Of silage, and the equivalent OF
20 days of pasturage
In addition to these cooperative
feeding trials with cattlemen in Indi-
ana, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and Mis-
souri, the United States Department
of Agriculture is conducting investiga-
lions In southwestern Wisconsin to de-
termine the costs and amounts of feed
required to fatten cattle on grass, with
and without a supplement, and of the
feed required to maintain a breeding
herd of beef cattle for one year, and
to raise calves from weaving time to
yearlings.

Do NOT OVERFEED CHICKENS
Great Secret Is Never to Allow lay
ing Hens to Get OVerfat-Fat
Fowl Is Lazy.

Do not go on the supposition that
the more feed you give your hens and
pullets, the more eggs they viii pro-
duce. This is a waste Of words to the
average poultry keeper, but there are
thousands of beginners who are over
feeding their fowls and wondering
why they are not gathering a pIenti-
full supply of eggs.
The great secret of feeding is never
TO allow your laying hens to get over
fat 1t is much better to have the
birds go away from the trough some
what hungry than to have portion
left over from the meal. The surest
way to tell If a hen is too fat is to
lift her, examine the rear of her body
and you can easily detect If there is
an excess of fat by the color of the
skin. A fat hen is lazy, cares nothing
for work, cannot easily fly and soon
becomes tired when chased.
