’BETTER PRICES s County Agents Will Show Farmers How to Get Them for Products AS WELL AS SHOW — How to Raise Them—Here is the Plan as it is Worked Out Recently. County agents not only show farmi ers how to grow more live stock and • bigger crops, but show them how to i get better prices. A field agent of the • States Relations Service of the Unit- ; ed States Department of Agriculture ■ reports that the county agent of Faulk- ; ner county, Ark., helped the fanners to get from 2 to 5 cents a pound more for their hogs. ! Here is the county agent’s plan ‘ which worked, as outlined at a meet- ! ing of the farmers and bankers. It was agreed that the bankers were to J finance cooperative live stock shipments to a central market. This they - gladly agreed to do. A day was nam'ed for a shipment of hogs. Every farmer in the county was notified by mail or telephone. On the day set the farmer, with 1 hog or 10, brought his porkers into town. Each farmer’s hogs were marked so that they could be separated when they reached the market. A man was sent to market with the carload of hogs. He had a record of the markings and ownership of every hog aboard. Each farmer’s hogs were •sold separately and records kept. On settling up accounts each farmer simply paid his share of the marketing expenses, which the bankers had adadvanced, according to the number of hogs he had shipped. Very few of the farmers ever had enough hogs ready for market at one time to make a carload; hence they had previously sold to the local buyer, who offered considerably less than the central market price. By making up cooperative shipments the farmers netted 2 to 5 cents a pound more for their hogs. Faulkner county farmers have sold six carloads of hogs by the cooperative plan ' recently, and now the cooperative shipping association on a regular and permanent basis is well under way. BETTER STOCK AND CROPS Better stock and better crop yields is the mottor of the county agent of Fairfield county, S. C. In carrying out this purpose he is waging campaigns for the importation into the county of more purebred bulls and for cooperative buying and home mixing of fertilizers to stimulate crop yields. Ho has already assisted farmers in ordering a number of pure-bred bulls and hopes to get more of them into the county this year than ever before. He has demonstrated to the farmers of the county how to place cooperative orders for fertilizers. JUST - LIKE PEACOCK Although the American redstart is a little bird only five and a half inches long, it has One trait in common with the gorgeously plumed peacock, namely, that it seems to be very fond of its handsome plumage and is conEi "iRk. ■ —tU wi • If a woman is nervous or has dizzy i Epells, suffers from awful pains at regular or irregular intervals she should turn to a > tonic made up of herbs, and without al- ! cohol, which makes weak women strong " and sick women well. *lt is Dr. Pierce s I Favorite Prescription. Druggists sell it in liquid or tablets. Send 10 cents to the ' Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N. 1., for trial ! package. Then, for the fiver and bowels ! nothing is so good as Dr. Pierce s Pleasant • Pellets. These are little, sugar-coated • pills, composed of Mayapple, leaves of I aloe, root of jalap—things that Nature ■ grows in the ground. ' I Pontiac, Mich.—‘l have always found Dr. I Pierce’s medicines to be all that is recommended of • them. I was in a nervous, run-down condition, ’ also had stomach trouble very badly. I tried ! several doctors out theyrdid not help me. A friend • told me of the benefit she had received from Dr. 1 Pierce's medicines. I quit the doctors and started ’ taking ’Favorite Prescription’ and ‘Golden Medical ’ Discovery’ and these medicines cured me comj pletely. 1 can highly recommend theru from i actual experience.”— Mr*, LI, P, £ew» 73 3. » Jessie St.

I tinually spreading its tail feathers, I says the American Forestry Association Washington, whose national bird-house building contest is attract- . in ggreat interest among school children in the feathered tribes of the United States. The male redstart whose colors are red, orange anti white does not attain the black portion of its plumage on back, tail and wings until it is two years old, this part of the bird during its early life being strangely mottled The female is grayish, yellow and white. OUR BEST LITTLE IMITATOR The catbird is so called because the note by which he is most commonly knows is like the meow of a cat, but as a matter of fact he Imitates almost every other sound he hears, says the 1 American Forestry Association, of ' Washington, whose nation wide bird- ' house building contest is attracting great attention to the country’s feath--1 ered host. It has been said that the catbird can imitate anything from a 1 squaking cartwheel to the song of a ’ thrush. He sings along apparently without knowing what he is going to improvise next. In color this bird is rather sombre being dar grey with a black cap. He is one of the most ’ common birds throughout the United States although rare west of the Rockies. CORNS, CALLUSES QUIT QUICK!
