State Farm CHEAP CORN PAYS WHKN FED TO KOCiS \V'th an outlook increase of 8.0 percent in the acreage of corn this year over fiie United States as compared with lust year, corn will likely be lower in price Jhis fall than usual. ""But what of that?" aske W. W. Shay, swine extension specia list at State College. "It is likely that corn sold as grain will this fall. Last year the corn fed to hogs by 45 demonstrators in North Carolina were sold for $1.50 a bushel. An increase in the crop of corn in this State means that we shall have more of the grain available for hog feed. If it were not for the in dustrial depression hogs wjould be selling now for sl2 a hundred As it is the price has been be tween $10.50 and $10.85 and his hogs properly can make a the person who breeds aud feeds his hogs properly can make a! good profit at this fiugre.' The outlook fo r .the future iS| better, says Mr. Shay. There Is the frozen, dry salt aifd pickled a decrease of over 18 percent in pork now in storage compared with April 1, 19 29. Then too the 1 total number of hogs on the farms of the United States as of January 1, 1930 was between j' seven and eight percent less! than on the same date of 19 29. Mr Shay says he doubts if anyi farmer in North Carolina can 1 find a better source if income or> one that will return more profit than good corn and good hogs properly handled. The man has tlies* and knows what to do with them, and then has a milk cow. a flock of liens, and a gar-' den may enjoy one income in early fall another next spring hive plenty to eat and few if j any presing debts to pay.
