PORK EXPORTS DECREASE

Exports of pork and pork products
from the United States were less in
1922 than in 1921, according to re-
ports of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. This decrease

con and lard. Exports of bacon
amounted to but 170.919 short tons,
compared with 207.67S tons during
1921. Lard exports amounted to $780,
ATS tons. compared with 4S7.447 tons.

and no less fervent in the cause Of the

battles as an amusement, and the In

a pastime. Then, whatever might hap
pen, was looked upon with smiles,
and the more wild the extensive des-

full and delightful they seemed to our

WHEAT GROWERS AssoclA.
TloN MEMBERSHIP DRIVE

The membership drive OF the Colo
RADIO Wheat Growers Association
which started a little more than a
month ago is continuing and nearly
every succeeding week brings larger
number Of contracts.
The Association has started organi-
cation work in number of the lo-
calities and number of fieldmen are
bringing the message to the farmers
in various wheat growing localities
over the state. The first effort for
an additional sign-up was started re-
Gently in Phillips county. Phillips
county members had one.third OF the
wheat in the pool when the Colorado
Association was incorporated, and
field men who have started work in
Phillips county feel confident that 80
per cent OF the Growers will sign the
agreement. They report that all Nof
those who have put wheat through
the Association this year are elated
over the prospects of its success, and
the satisfactory way the Association.
has been handled.

last weeks work. which shows that
farmers are practically united all over

bushels for the season of 1928.
