SWINE LEAD FARM
INCOME IN COUNTY

Thirty-two percent of the Union
county farmers income in 1914
came from the swine industry, ac-
cording to the department of rural
economics at Ohio State university.
The dairy industry ran a close sec
ond with % per cent while poultry
ranked third with II per cent, soy
beans fourth with 9 per cent, cattle
z per cent and wheat 6 percent.
The remaining 6 percent was de-
rvied from sales of sheep and other
livestock and crop enterprises
which go to make up the pattern of
Union county agriculture.
County Agent d. B. Robinson,
in Marysville, points out that since
1927 the dairy industry has been
the chief source of income more
years than hogs; however, the lead
ership gravitates between these
two industries. Prior to 1889 soy
beans contributed little to this in
come but in that year, 6 per cent
of the farm dollar came from that
source and since that time, a stead
y increase is noted, Mr.. Robinson
said.

The local situation, according to
J. Blaine Harris, farm labor sup
erViSOr in the Union county Agri-
cultural Extension office, is COM
parable to conditions throughout
the state.
One county reports the housing
shortage in cities and towns has
become so acute that men are ap-
plying for farm jobs with the in
tention of getting a place to live
and then working elsewhere. An
other county reports placement of
two men on farms but the men
later refused the offer Of 500 a
month plus board, room and
laundry on the farm and took jobs
in town.
A third county reports applica-
tionS from 13 serVicemen for farm
work. Seven of those men wanted
to take advantage of the training
in placement offer which provides
government payments to the farm
worker while being trained by an
experienced farmer. Farmers are
not anxious to use their own time
from work to train help.
Several counties report farmers
are cutting their cropping and live
stock enterprises to conform OF
the help situation. Farm sales are
reported at an aIl-time high in one
county, which means that an ex-
| perienced operator is turning over
! the business to other management.
Used farm equipment still brings
high prices, showing that farms are
not being abandoned.
Mr.. DOwdy found on a recent
trip through several southern
states that prospects for getting
farm help from them for Ohio are
little better than in the past two
years. The Buckeye state also will
get a share Of the Jamaicans who
come to the United States to work
on farms this year.

FARMER WINS
STATE B. TITLE

Little Farmer, Defiance county
school with only 33 boys enrolled,
defeated Worthington, 36 to 80,
to win the Ohio class "B" basket
ball title at Springfield, Saturday
night. Strictly a rank outsider
when the State play-offs started,
Farmer surprised all dopesters by
coping the title.
On Friday night, Farmer COM
pletely smothered Bradford, 81 to
80, while Worthington took a "a
to % decision from previously un-
beaten Waynesburg by stalling the
last 312 minutes.
Bradford, which had eliminated
Magnetic Springs in a double over
time the week previous, had been
favored over Farmer because
Bradford had also eliminated
Northridge, defeating "B" cham
pions. Waynesburg on strength of
its undefeated record, had like
wise been favored over Worthing-
ton.
In the Class "A" finals at To-
ledo, Middletown won it's second
title in three years by defeating
Akron North, AZ to 81. Middle
towns only loss in three years
was in the finals of last years
state tourney. In games Friday,
Middletown defeated Tole d o
Woodward while Akron North sec
ond upset win over East Liverpool.

this community. Orders were inn
mediately issued to proceed with
the construction of a $4,000 volt
transmission line. Aerial photo
graphs were used to determine the
best route for this line. ConStruc-
tion engineers then mapped out
the right-of-way, made up specifi-
cations for the type of conStruC-
ton and prepared orders to manu-
facturers for necessary materials.
The majority of right-of-way has
been secured and materials are
arriving daily at our warehouses.
ACtul construction work will start
in the very near future.
While the new transmission line
will operate at $4,000 volts it will
be constructed in such a manner
that it can be readily converted to
$1,000 volts when the power re-
quirements of the community
would neceSSitate such a change
The larger capacity circuits and
heavier inSulators involved in
$4,000 volt construction will insure
excellent performance with $4,000
volt transmission. This is the first
in a series of improvements that
the company has planned for the
overall betterment of its service in
this new territory.
Starting point for the new line
will be northeast of Urbana and,
after running 25 miles, will termin-
ate along Route A, just west of Ma
rySville. In order to accomplish this
it will be necessary to erect some
400 poles and string IS tons of
wire.
The quality of workmanship to
be expended in this construction
work is to be the same high type
found throughout The Dayton Pow
er and Light Company's other dis
trictS. At the present time special
poles, running in length from 55 to
80 feet, are being shipped in from
Northwest Canada. These chemi-
cally treated poles will carry the
latest type suspension insulatorS
which, in turn, will support spec
tally constructed aluminium wire
with a tSeel core.
This new $4,000 volt transmits
sion line and the Improvements
that have been made to our pre-
sent line will enable MarySville and
the adjacent territory to enjoy the
type of electric service that they
are entitled to receive and the
type of service that our company
recognizes as its responsibility to
provide, and a reservoir of electric
power will be available to ade-
quately care for future growth.
