Farmers Get
Ready For
Record Crop

Negro farm and home agents and
the emergency workers provided
by the War Food Administration
are helping the colored farmers to
put their farm facilities in good
condition for another record crop,
according to state extension SER
vice reports received by the U. S.
Department of Agriculture.
The reports indicate that in
several states the extension SER
vice farm and home agents, as well
as the emergency assistants are
conducting workstock, pressure
cookers, and farm machinery elm
les. The farmers bring their work
stock and farm machinery to the
clinics where they are carefully
examined. Workstoek needing MED
lcal attention are treated by ex-
veterinarians. Farm ma
chinery and pressure cookers are
repaired either by the farm and
home agents or by macahics.
These clinics also serve to teach
the farm people how to administer
some treatments to their livestock
and also how to repair their farm
machinery.

VIA Urges Negro
Farmers to Pro-
duce More Hogs

The South's $4,000 Negro farm
ers, few of whom have raised hogs
commercially, but many of whom
have raised them as a part of their
general crop program, are included
in the recent appeal of the War
Food Administration for farmers
to keep additional sows available
for narrowing next spring to help
meet the goal for spring pigs.
Although these farmers have not
gone in for commercial production
to>any great extent, their Individual
meat production has done much to
help the war effort in local areas
by providing meat for family con-
sumption, thereby releasing other
meat stocks for war purposes.
In order to reach the goal, hog
producers would need to increase
the number of sows narrowing
next spring by about II per cent
over the number planned, as in
Dictated by the December pig crop
report.
War Food Administrator Marvin
Jones says, The continued high
level of demand for meat for war
needs makes it imperative that hog
producers meet the goal of $780,
600 spring pigs. am concerned
about the prospect of a pig crop
next spring smaller than last spring
We shall need more hogs than now
appear will be marketed next fall
and winter. The feed grain sup
plies available will feed more hogs
than would be produced from next
springs pig crop, according to
present indications. l am asking all
War Food Administration agencies
with field stats to make every eff
fort to let farmers know that we
shall need additional pigs"
