lir. Barr says that until a market
Is created for hogs and cattle by the
establlHhment - of packing plants,
there can be no large Increase In the
production of livestock. He quotes
a neighboring farmer, who In reply
to the question why he did not grow
hogs, said: "We cannot grow hogs
here because we cannot sell them,"
and he reports that while live hogs
were selling at above tei\ cents In
Chicago, only eight sents could be
secured at this point for dressed
hogs, and but a limited number
could be sold at that price. He also
points out that owing to the lack

farmers of the State will not^ncrease '
their grain production. Just as far

CROPS LOOK GOOD
NEAR WASHINGTON
I A party of local' business men
made a trip through the country
within a radius, of about six milen
from Washington yesterday evening
for the express purpose of looking
a{ some of the crops. The party In
eluded W. H. Ellison, A. M. Dumay,
Carl Ooerch\ C. A. Flynn. L. A.
Squires and Captain Geo. T. I^oafth.
In spite of the inclement weather
that has visited this section of lav>.
it was fouud that the general show
ing of the crops was above the aver
age, Some beautiful stands of to
baeco were seen and If the crop that
was seen yesterday Is a fair sample
of that being raised In every other
part of the county. It should be ex
tremely high In quality.
Cotton Is undoubtedly three or
four weeks behind, but what was
seen yesterday gave promise of
rounding out nicely. Corn Is also
coming along nicely. Peanuts are
looking good.
As a whole. It wonld not appear
that the farmers have any cans? for
worry- ? Judging from what was seeh
yesterday, with warm weather for
the next week or so, the crops will
grow rapidly.
