THE COOPERATIVE HOG
 SHIPMENTS


 Up to the present time the Farm Bureau has shipped ' cars of hogs on the cooperative plan since January 1, 1922. Four of these cars were ship ped from Batesville and three from Sulphur Rock, all being sent to the National Stock Stock Yards, III. There Were128 men furnished the 890 hogs for these seven cars, making a total weight of 120,350 pounds.
 These hogs sold on the St. Louis market for $11,239.51 and the total expense of ship ping and selling was $389.36 leaving $10,350.15 that was distributed among the 128 farmers who made up the ears.
 The average cost per 100 pounds for freight, commission, yardage, feed, and insurance 651b cents. This includes all the expenses incurred from the time the hogs are loaded on the car until they are sold in St. Louis.
 The average price received by the farmer after all eXpen- ses were paid, Vas 8.6 cents per pound. This does not mean that the hogs are sold and the farmers paid the average price 5 received. Each hog is marked and is sold according to tits grade and weight. In the last car shipped from Batesville there was hogs belonging to twenty-five different farmers and we received twenty-five individual statements showing exactly what each grade sold for. Some men had as high as six grades of hogs. These cars were made up of all grades and weight, the weights rang ing from pigs of sixty pounds, up to sows and stags of four hundred pounds, and the grades varied as much as the weights. The lowest price received in St. Louis was five cents per pound and the high est eleven cents. In each of these cases the farmers reeeiV- ed what their hog sold for, less the expense of shipping and selling.
 During the period covered by this statement the local market prices was from 1 to ' cents per pound, 6 cents per pound being proably a high average price during this time. Taking as the average price paid on the local market and 8.6 cents average net price received by shipping, We have a difference of 2.6 cents per pound. This amount on the 120,350 pounds makes $3,129.10 received by the farmers of the county over and above what they would have received had they sold their hogs on the local market.
 The figures above are com piled from the tatenents sent us by the commission men who handled the cars, and can be verified by any one who wishes to do so.

CORRECTION OF DATE OF
 NEXT SHIPMENT

By mistake it was published in the papers last week that the next shipment of hogs would be made from Batesville April 22. The date should have been April 29. Please bear this i'll mind and do not bring hogs on the 22nd.

Because of this. he said, there will
be numerous failures of business
firms during the next 10 years
Mcintosh predicted that the pres

prices do not mean that hard times
will continue. he stated that bust

the new condition.
Declaring that not many business
