A GOOD TIME p TO GROW HOGS Raleigh, Jan. 12. ? This will be another good year for hogu. W. W. Hhuy, swine extension specialist at State College, is authority for this sLalemeni and Mr. b'oay ?? credited with knowing more about raising and fattening these animals than any other man in North Carolina. ilere is what he says, "Advance information from the Government jig survey indicates that hgih prices for hogs will continue another year. In fact the number of hogs slaught ered is expected to be less than in any year since .1920-21." This means, according to Mr. ' Sfciiy, ihut there is less pork in stor age and the man who grows out his pigs well and fattens them properly will make a profit on the feed given them. Coin and other.grain raised on the farm should be considered . largely yi the light of a feed for j livestock, anyway, claims Mr. Shay, lie states that grain sold as finished I meat brings a higher price than when the grain is sold as grain and he has records and facts which Sup port hi6 claim. For instance, records kept by county agents on the cost of gain for over 4,000 hogs owned by some 200 farmers during 1926 showed a return of well oevr $2.00 per bushel for tho 27,708 bushels of com eaten by the hogs. During this period, corn as grain was hardly selling for over $1.00 per bushel. "During the last 20 years," says Mr. Shay, "figuring at the average pricc for cotton and for corn con verted into pork and sojd according to the system, recommended by the extension service, com has returned more per day of man labor devoted to its growth than cotton has. Nor wan it necessary for the grower, to keep his children out of school to help with the farm work."

Chapel Hill, Jan. 7.,? -The; great est newspaper in America today is the country weekly and- it is bound to survive* declared John H. Casey, professor Of rural journalism in the University of Missouri closing ses sion today. Mr. Casey emphasized the point that the country weeklies now have "a combined circulation of 15,000, 000 copies weekly, read by 75,000, 000 readers."' "The weekly will survive as it has developed," he asserted, "that is, through Ktrvice-r? service to the com munity. ? . "In the aggregate the country weekly in America is issued in 12,000 edition* 52 times a year, published in 12,000 separate newspaper- offices in 8,000 different towns and vil lages, which offices occupy a com bined floor space far in excess of that afforded by the great Wool worth building of New York City and the great Wrigley building of Chicago. "The country weeklies with their 75,000,000 readers, constitute in the aggregate, and individually, the beat advertising medium of products atisfying, or promising to satisfy, a iiuman want that this advertising age ma developed." It was Professor Casey's belief that "we will always have the coun try weekly with us in some form ev en though all of our population should move to the city. Thorn? com munity weeklies, collectively ?and individually, will always assert a tremendous influence for and bet ter men and women.' Ah contrasted with the primitive type ot" country weekly in America, run ordinari ly for political purposes, the modern lype of country weekly has prosperi ty spelled on every page in every issue. "The one unpardonable thing about the country weekly," said Professor Casey, "is for it to neglect its edi torial column to develop its news and advertising columns. Many weeklies ignore the editorial privilege or fill in with some canned stuff from the city syndicate house' when there are so many local problems crying f <a' tlx rditor's attention. These tilings, too, have the right to expect edi torial treatment in a small communi ty. "Without its weekly newspaper, the typical American community would be like a school without a teacher or a church without a pas tor," he concluded. "In the ag gregate, the country weekly deter mines the outcome of more elections, exerts a greater influence for con structive community progress, is read longer by more members of the iniii ly and constitutes, with its CLUB WORK PAYS IN CASH RETURNS Kaleigh, Jan. 12. ? An accurate record kept of Four-H club work in Catawba county (luring the past nix years shows that the few well or ganized clubs of this county have j paid a net profit of $74,'170.G0. "Club work was started in Cataw- ! ba county under my direction in 1920 with an enrollment of 28 mem bers," says County Agent J. W. Hendricks. "Last year, 1926, I hail lfl'2 members. During the period since l'J20 there were a total of 338 members in our clubs. Twelve of the original 38 members have made a report each year since they joined. Nineteen of the members have married and 30 are in college or have finished. A large percent of circulation of 16,000.000 a better advertising medium than any other group of newspapers or periodical publications. In addition to which it has the most specialized of publica tions and at the same time the most universal in appeal. When properly conducted, it cultivates so intensive ly its home news field that city dailies, farm journals and general magazines circulating in the same teiritory become only secondarv in fluences at best." the older club member? arc now' In the county doing some kind of ag ricultural work. Some are in the dairy business with as many ok 50 head of cuttle while others arc in poultry work with flock* of (rum 600 to 2,000 birds." Mr. Hendricks and his club mem bers have been showing their poul try, in car shipments, for s.\?n years. They have exhibfed at different fairs and shows. The. lii'st exhibit consisted of 73 birds s.?n?J the1 last of 578 birds. Mora than 300 first prizes have been won in that 'time. Since the fall of 11/20.. the club members have hud their birds exhibited at the Madison Square Garden Poultry Show and no bird has ever placed lower than fifth. For the past few years, blu?s ribbons have been won at this. show. This year, Mr. Hendricks sends 12. entries to New York. In keeping in touch with his club work, Mr. Hendricks h?is an individ ual record of each member. This record is filed and contains th*? profit made by each membev c'aeh year. It shows the year the. member married or entered college ami what he is doing at present. Club work has been conducted' in the corn? cotton, sheep, calf and poultry pro jects during the past six years Poultry is the major project with calf club work second. The first Jersey Calf Club in the Southern states was organized in thi* county in 1922 with 22 members.
