Hogs and Other Live Stock Now Mak^ Ing Money for Farmera’—During Short Period of Two Yeara * Agriculture Revolutionized. Carrol] county’a (Mississippi) now famous Ked Cross Pig club sent to the St. Louis market the other day 24 cars of hogs aggregating 1,090 head. Ten per cent of the pet proceeds, from the wile were contributed to the Red Cross. The best loud-of hogs In the consign ment consisted of 71 he^d, averaging 2fiO pounds, and sold for $1D a hundred weight. Other hogs, ranging from shoteq weighing 63 pounds to well- fattened porkers, averaging 279 pounds, sold for $1$ to $18.75 a hundred weight. Tills novel MIsKlHalppl method of contributing to the Ked Cross attracted a great deal of attention ut the Na tional stock yards. Motion pictures of the various phases of the marketing, both In Carroll county and at the sale In St. Louis, were taken by representa tives of the United States department of agriculture. But the Ked Cross Pig club Is only an Incident In a rather remarkable ex- l>erlence of this southern county dur ing the last two years. During that short period Its agriculture has been entirely revolutionized. The transfor mation dates from the arrival of a county agent In 1916. Once All-Cotton. Carroll county, Mississippi, used to be an all-cotton county; It did not grow enough corn, igiy or meat to sup ply its own needs. Farmers ^gener ally were in debt and the conditions were as distressing as those in any other section where cotton is king, and where, since the advent of the boll weevil, the Inability to produce cotton economically bus made cotton farming hazardous. • In the fall of 1916 O. F. Turner was appointed county agent by the Missis sippi Agricultural college and the Unit ed States department of agriculture. It isn’t an easy Job to convert a cot ton country into a general farming section, but the situation in Carroll county depianded an immediate an- ! swer. When the county agent talked diversification, farmers and business j men told him that there was no mar ket for anything except cotton. This Is a stock answer throughout the South; Turner had to disprove It. He answered it with stock. In December, 1916, he put on his first demonstration i in the co-operative shipment of hogs, a carload picked up from the fanners of the county. He knew that if he demon strated that there was money in other things besides cotton, It would he easy to put the county on a safe basis with and with farmers In his county the problem of helping the Red Cross and at the same time helping hog produc tion. This wns talked In every school- house and in every rural church In the county. ~ Practically every merchant, every hanker; In fact, most of the busi ness men, raised pigs for this ship ment. Of course, the vast majority were raised by farmers. Nearly 500 negroes belonged to this club. The shipment attracted a great deal of at tention not only In Mississippi, but in the St. Louis market. The bureau of markets of the United States deport ment of agriculture assisted In calling the attention of the buyers to these bogs. This interesting shipment is, there fore, but the culmination of a piece of constructive work accomplished by the close co-operation of the farmers of Carroll county with a good county agent. It has made the farmers of Carroll county lnde|>endent; they have “lived at home;'* they have paid off as many mortgages as in seven years previous; they have made 50 per cent fewer chattel mortgages. Klghty-flve per cent used to farm on credit; now only 15 per cent need thin help. It has added to the food supply of the nation In t’me of need; It has revolutionised the farming of a county; it has made the lot of the average farmer of Car- roll county Infinitely more tolerable and has brought him n degree of economic safety impossible under a one-crop cystem. • • #••••••••••••••••••••••• THE TRANSFORMATION * Prior to 1918 not one carload shipment of hoga, Rattle, corn, hay or other farm products, ex cept cotton, had been made from Carroll county, Mississippi. In 1916 a county agent ar rived. From September, 1917, to Oc tober 1, 1918, Carroll county shipped 67 cars of hogs, 118 cars of cattle, 155 cars of corn, 50 cars of hay, 20 cars of peas, 25 curs of Irish potatoes, 32 cars of molasses, 2 cars of peanuts, 2 cars of sweet potatoes, and 1 car of sorghum seed—472 cars of live stock and farm products other than cotton. “She says she’d rather he miserable w 1 th-ttc-JJtiaji happy With anybody else." “Married life Is frequently lived on that basis, my friend."—Judge.

The first demonstration was a success. Prior to 1916 not a single carload shipment of hogs, cattle, corn, hay or other farm products, except cotton, had been made from Carroll county. The county agent pushed the production of hogs and the growing of crops on which to raise the hogs, and then he pushed cattle, corn, hay and peanuts, l^rom September, 1917, to thp first day of October, 1918, Car- roll county shipped 67 cars of hogs, 118 cars of cattle, 155 cars of corn, 50 cars of hay, 20 cilrs of peas. 25 cars of Irish potatoes, 32 care of molassea. 2 cars of peanuts, 2 cars of sweet pota toes and 1 car of sdrghum seed, a total of 472 carloads of live stock and farm products other than cotton. The ship ments culminated in the trainload of hogs from what la known as’tho Car- roll County Red CToaa Pig club. CliiO Reapagawda.
