k of the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Compahy'8 farm loan division re
V present twenty-live states, and th<
total area on which, mortgages art
held (approximately 3,750,001
acres), would constitute a plot oi
land the size of Connecticut anc
Rhode Island.
These farm investments on December
31, 1923. totaled 3142.344,.
374.97. Of this amount 345,813,000
was loaned last year, according
to a "statement recently Issued
by Robert Lynn Cox. Second VicePresident.
and head of the Met.ropolitan's
farm loan division.
The extent of the crop production
of 3,750.000 aeres (covered under
mortgages to Metropolitan
iLife Insurance Company) is indicated
by the fact that if bnly
!30 per cent, of the acreage were
put in corn, the annual production,
figuring 35 bushels to the acre, at
>an average price of 66 cents,
would make a return of 325.593.
*80.00.
Improved-Sires Work Is
Encouraged by Breeders
"The Alabama beef cattle breeders
have sold all of their surplus bulls of
breeding age," says K. O. Unker. extension
market agent of that state, who
recently visited the United States De
niftnierit of Agrirulttiisft.w Mr. linker
" cites us one reason forv this Increased
demand for bulls the Influence of the
co-operative show nnd sale of feeder
cattle held In October at the Montgomery
Union Stock Yards, in co-operatlon
with the state extension service
In this event nearly 1.200 Wfead of
cattle were sold nt nnrfhtn. innnv. off
tlMfio going to foodioi buyers representing*
adjoining and more northern
states. Before the sale the cattle were
all publicly graded for quality, size,
aex, etc.. and demonstrations. made to
how the advantage*. of using pure
bred trolls of good qunfity.
Producers received from 2 to cents
per pound more for their cattle under
thin system than they could obtain by
marketing them In ungraded lots-to
local: buyers.
: . Plans have been made to contjmio
this enterprise dr h permanent annual
event, and It Is expected to provide a
much-needed stimulus to beef cattle
production In that section.
Forage Crops in Summer
Are of Big Importance
A good many dairymen find that
., when the summer months begin to
show up dry pastures, rhev also find
ft the easiest way to let the cows dfy
, up. or at least out d ?\rn the milk pro
tluct Inn. It' is during these months
that It Is Important to keep n steady
supply of milk, to meet a steady- ?1e.
vnand from the markets. During May
and early June, the cows are doing
.their, bp^t, whUe In July the milk supply
falls off.
Sllrtge. legumes <?r bay feeds should
be added to the scanty pastures In
July and August, For that "reason 1ft
Is well to be planning on the crops
now. to keep an o n feed supply on
hand all snuuner. Some .grain should
be added to the supplementary feed
Throughout the summer. Alfalfa,

According to Mr. Cox, a realization"
of the economic hope of the
American farmer, long deferred, Is
now in sight "The farmer," he
said, "is getting at last his chance
to share largely in bringing about
better economic conditions in the
world, and I am sure he wjll not
dissappoint those who believe we
can look to rural surroundings for
the development of our best citizenship."
