Hca Means Cash in Jeans

Statistics prepared by County Agent
7. o. Hembre show that to the farm
ers of eastern Montana hogs spell cash
in pocket, success and agricultural de-
velopment. In 1922, when Fallon coun-
ty farmers shipped out a total of six
carloads of hogs at a profit, interest
commenced to mount among their
neighbors, with the result that during
1923 As carloads of swine were shipped
from Baker, being six and one-half
times the number of cars sent out the
previous year.
In addition, Mr.. Hembre announces
that more than 100 registered hogs for
breeding purposes were introduced
into Fallon county through the boys.
and girls clubs in 1923, insuring a per-
manent supply of good breeding ami.
mails in the future.
