Many Farm Families Will Take on Job
01 Caring for 10 Per Cent More Hogs
“Labor shortage and other
problems may make It impos
sible for some people to raise
more hogs, even though they’d
like too,” says \\ Willis Bowen.
Farm Security Administration
County Supervisor for Washing
ton County. "On the other
hand, you can bet your bottom
dollar that many farmers will
take on the job . . . they'll join
the ranks of those raising 10 per
cent more pigs just as they and
millions of others have joined
the 10 per cent clubs in buying
war bonds.
"Farm Security borrowers and
other Operators of family-type
farms,” Mr. Bowen adds, “are
usually in a good position to up
their hog production 10 per cent.
Outside labor is not a factor with
thorn, as the family does prac
tioall.v all the farm work. More
over, most of them raised more
hogs this year than ever before,
and could increase their 1943
production by 10 per cent or
more without having to add to
their equipment. Then too, they
mostly have more feed on hand
this year than for a good many
years running."
Mr. Bowen says that Farm Se
curity has been authorized to
make loans to small farmers
needing special credit to enable
them to get into fuller produc
tion of livestock and other war
time food necessities. He can be
reached in the FSA office in the
Leggett Building in Plymouth,
N. C. by farmers wishing to talk
over their production problems.
