Since last June we have im munized more than 5,0Q^ head of hogs, shipped three cooperative cars and have more com to feed hogs on for the spring market than we have ever had. Fians are under way now to feed several cars of hogs for April shipments. Fanners who have a few hogs they would like' ~to feed, out should get in touch wjth this office and line up for the spring carfot ship ments. It does not pay to keep last fall farrow of pigs for next winter's meat Spring farrowed pigs, that is say in April,- can be made to weigh more than 20# pounds gross which should be big enough for any normal man. The meat is- sweeter and the lard just as good. Poultry Word Moves rorwaru W| are*still plugging along at oik progrtSh of more and better poultry on the farms of Pitt County.
