Brunswick Can Raise Workstock Registered Jack Has Been Purchased By Group In Columbus And Is Available For Use In This County Columbus county farmers are beginning to raise their own mules. They figure that thousands of dollars which used to go west for work stock can now be kept at home. By means of a "Community Service Loan" from the Farm Security Administration Wade rhompson and a group of neighbor farmers recently clubbed together and purchased a fine registered jack. The Columbus farmers who signed the original participation contract with Mr. Thompson own mares. And since this breeding animal was purchased a number of other farmers owning brood mares have signified their intention to use the service. Though the jack has been in the county only a few months 45 Columbus county farmers have already bred their mares. This jack was bred in Missouri and purchased from a dealer in Lebanon, Tennessee. C. D. Pickorrell, County FSA Supervisor, went with Mr. Thompson to Tennessee to select the animal. This jack is located on Mr. rhompson's farm 3>/4 miles north of the courthouse at Whiteville. Farmers in Brunswick county who wish to raise their own mules may take their mares to this lack by paying the regular fee oaid by the membership. The "Community Service Loan" e one feature of FSA's broad, oetter balanced farming program, and was designed to enable small 'armers to group together to buy pure bred sires and heavy equipment too expensive for one farmer to purchase for his individual ise. Boone's Neck Friends of Rowland Varnam will regret to learn he is seriously ill. Elizabeth Robinson returned home Sunday after spending 12 days in Southport with Mrs. G. D. Robinson.

He was enrolled in the CCC at Blakely, Oregon, when he developed measles. Pneumonia later developed and friends will be glad to know that his condition is much improved.
