Perhaps those who have a hold
on the whip end of the business
have heard tell of the old Boston
Tea Party" And perhaps If they
could utterly destroy the surplus OF

Anyway, with leaders who know

Campaign Endorsed
(EDITORIAL)
A campaign to induce every f

A campaign to induce every family to serve
at least two "pork luncheons' during the Ma
tional Economy Pork Sale period, February 1 to
March 9, has been endorsed by H. w. Taylor,
Extension swine specialist of State college. C.
L. Balance, chairman of the executive commit
tee of the North Carolina Livestock Marketing
associations, promoted by the Extension Service,
is in charge of the campaign in in this state.
Taylor explained that this is an undertaking
designed to help primarily the hog growers of the
state and nation. Every family is being urged to
consume one extra ham, shoulder, loin, or other
cut during the period. AS to where or from whom
you get the pork makes no difference; buy it
where you can get the best pork at the best price.
The object is to consume more pork.
The United States estimate for 1889 is an
$4,000 900 pig crop, 13 million pigs over the pre-
vious year. The North Carolina hog crop is con-
Stunning over two billion pounds of feed annually.
Cash sales from swine in North Carolina are ex-
ceeded only by cash sales from tobacco, cotton
and cottonseed, and milk, Taylor stated.

Agent Guy A. Cardwell AID.
vises Farmers To Stick To
Hog Production
By GUY A CALDWELL
General Agricultural Agent

Atlantic Coast Line Railroad 20.
Regardless of the unfavorable
price being paid for hogs at this
season, farmers in cotton, tobacco
and peanut counties of Virginia and
the Carolinas should stick to swine
production. The so-called cash crop
system of the south can no longer
produce sufficient to support the
port the farm family in reasonable
comfort. This system should be
supported by food and feed crops
and by livestock, particularly hogs.
The bureau of agricultural eco
Monies, U. S. department of agri-
culture, is ~forecasting December
2O) strong consumer demand for
hogs in 1910 compared with 1889.
The improvement is expected from
the increase in industrial produc.
ton and consumer incomes.
Incomes have risen sharply since
last summer, but the rise has not
yet been fully reflected in demand
for meats or in the prices of live
stock. Hogs in early December
were selling at the lowest prices
in more than five years. The drop
in the price of hogs in the past
month was accompanied by a rise
in the price of corn. The ratio
of hog prices to corr prices is now
unfavorable for hog producers for
the first time in more than two
years.
The increase in the number of
cattle and lambs fed in the 1939-4O
season over 193S-39 is likely to be
greater than appeared probable in
early November. The number of
cattle fed this season will be larger
than a year earlier in both the
corn belt and the western states.
The increase in the number of
lambs fed in the corn belt probably
will be greater than was expected
a month ago, and the decrease in
lamb feeding in the western states
will be smaller. Hog marketings in
1910 will be considerably larger
than in 1889.
Foreign demand for hog products
in 1910 probably will be stronger
than in 1889, but no large increase
in exports of pork and lard as a
result of the European war is ex-
pected in the next few months.
Hog marketings have increased
s%easonally since September, and in
recent months have been material
ly larger than a year earlier. The
seasonal increase in hog market
ings probably will continue into
January. Although marketings will
be reduced seasonally in the late
winter and early spring, the may
be as large for the entire second
quarter (January-L1arch) of the
1939-40 marketing year as in the
first quarter.
Prices of the better grades of
slaughter cattle strengthened mod
erately in late November and in
the first week of December, but
weakened in the second week of
December. Prices of the lower
grades of slaughter cattle advanced
slightly from early October to late
November, but weakened in the
