Hogs As A Market
For Surplus Corn
Clemaon <A>He?ce. Miirch 2,?That
the hog is a vehicle whu.h carrieu
corn to a higher market ha* been
overlooked by tho?e who have *tateJ
that there ha* not been a very *ati?~
. factory market for corn thia year.
, It i* quite possible that many have
overlooked one of the beat markets
j for corn, think* Prof. L. V. iitarkey,
chief of the animal husbandry div|
iaion, who say* that experiment*
j have shown how hog* can market
corn at more than a dollar per bushel,
while field trials, baaed on demj
onstration record*, show that hundred*
of carload* of hogs have, during
lhiJCt, marketed corp considerably
above a dollar per bushel.
"We really have a good market
for corn, provided it is kept in mind
that corn and hog* go well together,"
Continues* Prof. Starkey. "It is this
combination that has financed mnn>
happy home* in the United States.
"If a supply/of corn is on hand
now, plant some soybeans, either
Otootan or Hiloxi, and then when they
are about 12" inches high turn in
some spring pigs and feed them plenty
of corn. The combination of corn,
green beans and hogs is a hard one
to beat. In addition to marketing
the feed it improves the soil. If in
doubt as to the value of. this, try
it on a small scale and the results
will soon enlarge the farm business.
"Where corn is to be grown next
year, plan to feed out some hogs.
The/local county farm ugent can help
in these plans." .
