Counts Agent Banks MakPS Appeal
to Farmers to Keep More Brood Sows
The United States Government has
asked that Arkansas increase her hog
production 20 per cent. To do this
means that every hog grower must
keep more breeding stock than he did
last year.
Due to the present high price of
hogs I notice that some of the far
mers have been selling off their good
brood sows and gilts to buyers who
are shipping them out of the county
for butcher purposes. Jackson coun
ty needs all, or a greater portion of
these surplus sows, to help make up
the increase asked by the government.
Therefore, if any man in the county
has more brood sows than he can well
take care of, he can render a patriotic
service by not selling these brood
sows for butcher purposes, but in
stead by saving them for his neigh
bor or for some other farmer in the
county who wishes to increase the
number of his hogs.
As county agent I would like to see
every farmer in our bounty secure as
many sows and gilts as he can profit
ably handle. And with this desire in
mind, I shall for the next few weeks
act as free distributing agent between
seller and buyer. I wish that those
who have a surplus of breeding sows
for sale would write or telephone me
the number which they wish to sell,
giving the age, breeding and price of
the sows which they care to dispose
of; also the information as to wheth_
•er they are open or bred. On the other
hand I wish those who want more
brood sows would likewise write or
telephone me the number of sows or
gilts which they would like to buy,
stating the age, the breed which they
desire and advice as to whether they
prefer open or bred sows or gilts.
I urge that eery man give this his
prompt attention as hog breeding sea
son will soon be over.
