five years ago I caught cold froir

and made my back lame an<i
sore. I could hardly bend over and
when I did my back pained terribly

nerves wer? in awful shape. At timet
I would be dizzy and my sight would

MORE HOGS FOR GEORGIA
The following article is from the
? pen of Frederick J. Haskin and was
recently published in The State. It
is of such timely interest to South
B Carolina farmers that it is herewith
" published for the benefit of the farm8
ers of Chesterleld County.
t *
Savannah, Ga., April 5.?The two
figures in Georgia affairs which are
the subject of most talk and specula- 1
^ tion at this time are the Georgia hog
and the Georgia negro.
? The Georgia hog, fattened on such ,
- delicacies as peanuts, velvet beans 1
i and sweet potatoes, is attaining a i
popularity, both at home as a farm i
1 product and in the Northern markI
ets as ham atnd bacon, which promis
es wonderful things for the future. <
r It shows the Georgia farmer how to i
> break the grip in which the cotton i
I crop has held him for a century. i
> But 'this rosy future is as much i
' dependent upon the Georgia negro as i
; upon the Georgia hog. And the ne
k gro has just returned from war. Ap
parently he has not yet decided just
what he is going to do, and since the
wheels of industry in these parts can i
I not turn without hiiri thin hmitatinn
is a matter of keen and widespread i
interest. ..w&tyMH
At present, according to reliable j
account, most of the dusky heroes <
are engaged in telling about what <
they saw and experienced in France,' 1
and in trying to trace the ultimate ]
consumers of those allotments which i
they made in haste before leaving. 1
One returned negro soldier, accord- \
ing to local report, went to the chair- ]
man of his local board and respect- j
fully asked to whom he had assigned i
his allotment. 1
"Why, to your wife, Sam," he was <
told. - ]
"Yas suh, mah wife," Sam agreed, i
"But would you-all mind tellin' me i
what's her first name?" i
However, negro soldiers were by j
no means the only ones who married i
and made allotments rashly and in <
haste, and not all negro soldiers were 1
rash and hasty in their choice of war i
brides. One wife of a negro soldier i
still in France drew $600 on account j
of allotments recently and invested I
the whole sum in a mule, a plow and
a piece of ground so that her lord j
might go to work immediately upon
his return. i
And when the negro man does go
back to work, he makes better terms
than he used to. His day's work
used to be in his own words, "from
cant' see to couldn't," meaning from
before daylight to after dark. Now <
' he refuses, * * * to work more
than ten hours a day, and gets more
for the ten hour day than he used
to get for 14 hours. No one blames
the negro for bettering his lot all he
I can, of course, but they wish down
here that he would quit being a hero
as soon as possible, and get down to
work.
The war is responsibly for the
present position of the hog in Georgia
as well as that of the negro. In
1916 there were only 1,800,000 hogs
in the State of Georgia, and the '
people were paying $40,000,000 a
year for pork products from other
States. It was then that the food ad- '
ministration and the department of

agriculture sent out the urgent plea
that each section raise as much of
its own meat as possible, thus saving
transportation as well as adding to
the meat supply.
The way Georgia responded to this
call is shown by the fact that there
are now 3,043,000 hogs in the State,
and the export pork products exceeds
the import, which has already fallen
to $16,000,000 a year.
The gain in quantity is not by any
means the only gam. A few years
ago there was the merest scattering
of high grade hogs in Georgia. Today
the Duroc-Jersey and Hampshire |
hogs are being raised and sold all
over the State, and numerous farms
have been established for the purpose
of supplying the farmers with blooded
stock.
The fact of the matter is that in
responding to the hurry call for increased
meat production most of the
Georgia farmers discovered for the
first time how finely their section is
adapted to the production of hogs
and how much better it is to have
two sources of income instead of one
?one having always been cotton.
Puttiihg ham and bacon on a hog
is what makes him valuable. Mere
fat produces only the lower Grades
of pork products. 'And the valuable
"streak o' lean" is the result of a
mixed diet.
Now a Georgia farm is the very
place where a hog can get a mixed
diet. Almost anything will grow
down here and the growing season is
three-fourths of the year. They
plant the corn rows about three to
sevem feet apart. Between the rows
they plant velvet beans which climb
the corn stalks and peanuts, locally
known as goobers. The hog is usually
turned into the held to clean up
this growth in the fall. Of course,
the peanuts are gathered and marketed
when there is a market, but the
bogs always get part of the crop, and
sometimes get it all. The same is
true of sweef potatoes. They are
raised for the market and since the
South has discovered what kind of a
sweet potato the North wants, marketing
has become more successful.
The Southerner likes a red, juicy
sweet potato of the yam type. A dry
sweet potato finds no favor with a
Southern epicure. And it took the
South a long time to realize that the
North wants a dry, mealy, pale looking
sweet potato, resembling an Irish
potato as much as possible. Now,
such sweet potatoes are being raised
quite generally for the northern
trade. And the hog stands by to take
what the North doesn't want. He
has no prejudice against either kind
of sweet potato. He gets all of the
culls in any case, and when the crop
is large he gets some of the choicest
potatoes. Thus he is always at
hand to absorb and turn into ham
and bacon any crop that does not find

saving device. And in case the cotton
crop fails, or cotton prices are
very low, he is the farmer's financial
salvation.
With all of ihese considerations in
his favor, it is a wonder the hog has
not won an even more important
place on'the Southern farm than he
now enjoys. The chief reason is that
he does not fit into the credit system
of the country. Any man who is
in a position to raise cotton can borrow
money on his prospects in any
Georgia town. The cotton bale is as
much a unit of trade is the dollar.
But the same can not be said of the
hog. He is a newcomer. There is
nothing against him except the forces
of custom and inertia. And these are
being overcome.
At present the chief need of the
Georgia hog is more corn. For while
sweet potatoes and velvet beans and
peanuts and all the other waste and
forage of the farm are good enough
for him to grow up on and give him
distinctive flavor and a Arm flesh,
corn remains the one and only "finishing"
feed. If he is to compete
with hogs from other sections of the
country in the great markets, the
Georgia hog must be intensively corn
fed for a short period before his
execution. Georgia grew 68,000,000
bushels of corn last year, all of which
was fed to live stock- in the State,
and it is going to grow 110,000,000
bushels this year. Yet there is not
enough corn for the growing army of
hogs. This means that cotton must
surrender still more of its acres to
corn before Georgia pork can be put
on a firm basis.
And there is little doubt but that
cotton will do so. Right now, when
cotton prices ought to be going up,
they are going down. The boll
weevil is marching toward the sea
like another Shermani. Meanwhile
Georgia pork is fetching top prices
in the Northern markets, and the
Georgia porker is thriving. No wonder
that the Georgia planter, looking
back over his long and losing struggle
with the cotton market, plants
old cotton fields in com and buys
more and better hogs.
