BROOM CORN FARMING
URGED IN so. GEORGIA

ATLANTA, Dee T. - Here's d
tip from manufacturers that might
be worth the time of farmers over
Georgia and the South generally -
consider BFoomeorn is something
every Georgia farm could produce
and IN some cities there are broom
factories that would use practical
ly all the farmers could raise
Broomcorn is said to be a handy
crop which may he planted any
time between April and the first OF
July, and can be cultivated and
marketed at comparatively low
labor cost More OF the farmers,
it is pointed out, should investigate
the possibilities of broomcon as a
money crop and at least make some
experiments on a small scale next
year
Even if there is no broom fac
tory jim some of the counties, it is
claimed there is a market for
broomcorn, for in the larger cities
broom factories buy it in large
quantities. As side line crop ag-
riculturalists say it would pay
Southern farmers well.

SHORTAGE OF HOGS
TAKES MONEY OUTOF
NORTHWEST STATES

From dependble records, taken
from the livestock killing eenters,
Portland, Tacoma, Seattle and Spc-
kane, 44S,332 live hogs wee brought
to slaughtering plants in these cities
in 1922 from the Dakotas and Ne
braska. The averge value Of these
hogs was $4,000 per head, thus it
can be seen that approximately So
600, 100000 was sent out OF our
northwest territory to make farmers
of the middle west prosperous. The
reason these hogs were brought from
SO far outside of our territory is
simply the fact that farmers of Ore
gon, Washington and Idaho are not
producing enough hogs IN the thm
producing enough hogs to take care
of the local demand. The decrease
in the production of hogs in the
northwest states is alarming. In
1916 Idaho farmers produced 49,
31S hogs for the marked, a steady
decline since then has taken place
until 1921 the total numhr was
1877 while 1922 showed lttle in
crease, there is still shortege that
is taking millions of dollarsSout of
the northwest. A few moR hogs
per farm would keep this nouey II
