Improved Hoi> Prices
Forecast By April
Because of the limited holdings
of pork in cold storage and the
low receipts of hogs at the leading
central markets, there is every
prospect that prices for pork will
increase by April tirst.
W. W. Shay, swine extension
specialist at State College, says the
receipts of hogs at the seven lead
ing markets during the five months
of October to February, inclusive,
were 7,972,748 head as compared
with 11,649,308 head during the
corresponding period in 1931 and
1932. The receipts during Febru
ary of this year were only 537,240
head as compared with 724,152
during February one year ago. For
the week ending March 11, re
ceipts were 21,822 less than the
week ending March 12, 1932.
in auoiuon to inis, buys oiwj,
“the cold storage of pork, including
frozen, dry salt, pickled, and in
process of cure on hand March 1,
1933, was 24.89 per cent less than
was the case on March 1, 1932, and
28.75 per cent less than the aver
age March 1 for the past five
years.’'
In Shay’s opinion, this means
that hog prices must increase by
April 1 to where they will equal or
exceed prices paid one year ago.
He looks for the prices to improve
to the point where they will ex
ceed the actual cost of production.
This prediction is made in spite of
the fact that the average price for
the -week ending March 11 was
only $3.84 a hundred pounds.
Since most North Carolina hog
growers are finishing their animals
to take advantage of the high mar
kets of April and August, these
growers should prepare to market
animals co-operatively next month.

W hen Pastures Fail,
1 lave Emergency Cron
Past experience has proven that
it does not pay for the North Car
olina dairyman to depend on his
permanent pasture for roughage
during the months of July and
August.
“Prolonged droughts for the past
two or three years indicate the
necessity for the'dairyman to have
an insurance crop to furnish graz
ing during this part of the sum
mer. To depend on pastures will
mean that the cows will lack feed,’’
says A. C. Kimrey, dairy extension
specialist at State College. “It is
not too early now to make plans
for the proper feeding of dairy
cows in July and August. Pas
turing a crop that will furnish con
tinuous growth during this period
is a good practice and there is no
better crop for this purpose than
Sudan grass.”
Mr. tvimrey says vanuus mem
ods have been resorted to by dairy
men to have the necessary succu
lent roughage during the late sum
mer. Summer silage has been used
and is satisfactory when available
in sufficient quantities. Soiling
crops have been used but the labor
necessaiy to cut and haul these
crops to the barns make this prac
tice burdensome. It is better to
have a crop which may be pas
tured.
Therefore, every dairyman who
is in doubt about his pasture should
prepare some land for seeding
about May 1. Sudan grass must
have fertile land for best growth.
This land should receive an appli
cation of stable manure as early
as possible and this worked well
into the soil. At seeding time or
just before make an application of
complete fertilizer. The grass
should be seeded at the rate of 30
to 40 pounds an acre for best re
sults, Kimrey suggests.

A HIS is not a “built-to-a-price” model. It
is a standard 1933 Kelvinator, with over four
cubic feet of food capacity.
It is a beautif-' quality-built electric refrig
erator. It is.ie ^t-running, economical—good
for a lifetime, -s gleaming porcelain-lined in
terior has room for all the food the average
family needs. Its freezing trays hold a gen
erous supply of ice-—or delicious frozen
desserts.
It carries all the standard Kelvinator guar
antees. It represents no compromise in per
formance or in quality.
To-day’s Low Costs
Brought This Opportunity
While materials can be bought at present low
costs, the price of this Kelvinator to you will
be $99.50 installed in your home. We guaran
tee this price for 40 days.
If, atAe end of this period, we have to pay
more for materials (and we hope we will, for
that will mean better times for you and us
and everybody else), we will have to advance
No Compromise on Any D«
You can know that there has been no
promising on quality—no substitution
cheapening of the product to make possible
a low price.
The public expressed a desire for a good elec
tric refrigerator at a price of $100 or less. A
number have been built down to this price,
but people looked at them—some have used
them—and found them wanting.
Now, for the first time, a pioneer manufac
turer—in fact, the oldest manufacturer of
electric refrigeration for the home— picks
from its brand new 1933 line a beautiful, full
sized, full powered standard model, and says,
“The price is $99.50.”
There is only one condition to this offer—one
important thing to remember. The $99.50
price is guaranteed for 40 days only. We have
enough materials already bought to protect
that promise. After they are gone, we can’t
say.
A Word to Prospective
Purchasers of Electric
Refrigerators
"In the building of this re
frigerator there has been no
compromise on the Kelvina
tor standards of the past 19
years. It possesses the same
high quality and performance
found in every Kelvinator
model, whether priced at
$99.50 or $1,000. It could ndt
be otherwise, for this ia a
standard Kelvinator."
O. W. MASON
FULL Power—The compressor is no ex
periment that somebody hopes will be all
right. It's the same powerful, time-tested
and proved power plant used in the higher
priced Kelvinators.
Having an abundance of power, it runs
only about a third of the time. This means
longer life, less wear and greater econ
omy. It actually uses less electricity than
other compressors having but a third of
its capacity. And it is quiet—remarkably
quiet—the result of fine engineering and
precision manufacturing. No compromise
FULL Slae—The cabinet is large,
roomy, beautifully designed. And behind
it is more than a half century of cabinet
building experience. It is » heavy one
piece steel exterior over a rugged steel
frame. It has 2% inches of Kelvatex in
sulation all around-—2% inches of water
proofed, odorless insulation to keep the
heat out and the cold in. Substantial.
Permanent. Non-destoructible. The full size
of the cabinet permits it to be fully in
sulated. No compromise here.
I onMtani toiu nimcimruMiiiK-an -
other exclusive feature is the compensat
ing defroster—the unique engineering de
vice which permits refrigeration while de
frosting the unit. Ice cubes remain hard,
food safe. No compromise here.
Many Important Fentures—The door
is massive and fully insulated. The mod
ern hardware is chromium and the exterior
finish of the cabinet is a gleaming “per
manent white” lacquer enamel. There is a
Temperature Selector with 8 freezing
speeds and Kelvinator 8-Zone Cold gives 3
distinct types of refrigeration in the one
cabinet. And there are many other fea
tures which give this model greater value
and utility. No compromise here.
Easy Terms—Here is unquestionably the
greatest value on the market to-day. A
foil sized, full powered, full quality stand
ard Kelvinator at a price everyone can af
ford to pay—especially on the easy Monthly
Budget Plan where the monthly payments
ere actually less than the money you save
cn the saving of foods (otherwise
and quantity buying. See it now. And get
yours before prices go up.
