Gordon W. Randlett has ‘just returned from a series of 18 hog j “tours held in eight counties of that section during November and reports splendid attendance and interest in the hog development work sponsored by the Greater North Dakota associ- | ation. Records of carload shipments of hogs from Adams, Billings, Bow- man, Dunn, Golden . Grant, Hettinger, Mercer. Oliver, | “Sioux, Slope and Stark counties gave a total of 2062 carloads in 1929 as “compared with the average annual shipment for the previous five years of 1819 carloads, an increase of 56 per cent. The increase of 1929 over _1928 amounted to 47 per cent. Getting $1.49 for Wheat “I was amazed at the rapi | increase shown in hog production west of the “Missouri river,” Mr. Randlett, who is in charge of hog development work for the association, declared. “That ‘section is a natural wheat producing country but it can also produce a mighty good hog. Nearly all the | farmers out there are feeding coarsely ground wheat and rye with barley and some oats. Although a limited num- ber of their 1930 hogs have been marketed to date, preliminary esti- | mates given to me by farmers indi- ‘cate that in feeding their wheat to ‘hogs they are receiving from §1 to *$1.40 per bushel for it. In one spe-; cific instance coming to my atten- ‘tion, 200 bushels of wheat made $280 | worth of pork. In another, where the | shogs ‘vere weighed in and out, the, return was $1.25 per bushel for the swheat. I also found some farmers | feeding wheat to cattle with success | ‘and many said they would sow their wheat in 1931 with the intention of | ~using part of it for feed. | Tours a Success | “In all we held 18 hog tours with an; average of 20 farmers on each tour.| Fortunately during November that part of the state was west of the storm area and we were able to carry through cur entire schedule. We had splendid cooperation from county agents «nd local committees and we believe this hog tour idea is the prac- tical manner of carrying on hog de- velopment work. The plan is to have | the farmers assemble at some farm) in the forenoon and then have the entire party visit four to five farms a day. This permitted frank discus- sion of the many problems confront- ing the hog producer introduced to! beginners many of the successful practices of the more experienced. Interested in Good Water “We found greatest interest in| methods pf sanitation, housing, water | supply, good breeding and feeding.

SUGGESTED RELIEF SUMS REACH TOTAL OF FIVE BILLIONS 27 ssvtises Ae commuted Measures Providing for $170,- 000,000 Already Started in Congress Washington, Dec. 10.—()—If all re- lief proposals offered in congress were to become law, the treasury would have to find five billion dollars to pay out the appropriations. Only two bills to aid in employment and assist farmers damaged by the drought have gone part way through the legislative mill. They provide, as they now stand. $110,000,000 for pub- lic works and $60,000,000 for farmers’ seed and fertilizer loans. One proposal alone would take $3,500,000,000 from the treasury. It has been held up in committee but the author is seeking to bring it out. Several similar bills have been intro- duced. Others Are Varied Other relief proposals would achieve varying objects, such as: To increase federal highway aid to | $500,000,000 annually. Let counties employ as many as 300 men for $3 a day for road work and draw from a $250,000,000 federal fund. Loan $75,000,000 to farmers through the farm loan board and land-grant colleges. Advance to “any state held to be gravely affected by the drought” supply availabie to their hogs 24! $5,000,000. hours a day. One man experimented | and found that under this system | hogs consumed just twice as much water as when given water once in 12 hours. It is a recognized fact that hogs drinking lots of water do better | with their feed than those on shorter; rations. The tendency in housing is to get away from the permanent house, a condition which we find in all sections of the state. There is also. marked improvement in feeding methods and better understanding of market requirements by producers. It is the intention of the associa- tion to conduct similar hog tours, and possibly some sheep tours, in other sections of the state during the com- ing year. Pastors Leave for Seminary at Helena Rev. J. S. Wilds, superintendent of the Bismarck district for the Metho- dist Episcopal church and Rev. Wal- ter E.

Superintendents and pastors of leading churches throughout the Helena area will attend this school of instruction at which Bishop Wallace E. Brown will preside. The work of the church will be reviewed and all fields of religious education will be covel The Helena area is comprised of North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Wy- oming and part of Oregon.

COOPERATIVES AD TOWOOLINDUSTRY DURING LAST YEAR Declaration Made by President of National Wool Grow- ers Association Colorado Springs, Colo., Dec. 10.— (®)—Wool growers and manufacturers have received benefits from coop- erative efforts to stabilize wool prices during the last year, F. J. Hagenbarth, president of the National Wool Grow- ers association, said in opening the sixty-sixth annual convention of the association here today. For the first time, he said, the wool grower is receiving full benefit of the wool tariff, and, wool has fairly well held its: price within a narrow range of flu®tuation when other staple com- ,modities have fallen to lower levels. Activity of the association in con- |nection with the recent tariff revision |was reviewed by Mr. Hagenbarth. |“Taking the new tariff as a whole | and reducing its effects to dollars and jcents, the grower is better off by a {considerable margin as well as the jestablishment of valuable precedents in wool tariff writing,” he concluded. He said that up to date the federal farm board and the National’ Wool |Marketing corporation have made | good 100 per cent. |.
