FOR THE FARMERS 1 Items of Interest to the Farmers of Adams County. Farmers Study Costs of Pork Production. Sixty farmers in Clinton, Miami. Tipton. Rush, Franklin, Union and Hancock counties are cooperating with : the county agents and the Purdue ‘ University extension department in, keeping cost accounting records on i hogs. The object of tills work is to determine the basic factors of cost in producing hogs—that is to find out how much feed, labor, etc., is required in hog production—and to study different methods and practices used in raising hogs in order to find out which ones are the most economical and profitable. This work was started in Deer Creek township, Miami county a little more than a year ago with six farmers cooperating. These farmers have coniI pleted their records on last season's pigs. On the average it required 496 pounds of feed for each 100 pounds of live pork produced, including all the feed fed to the sows from breeding time until the pigs were weaned ami all the feed fed to the pigs from weaning time until they went to mar- ’ ket. The average cost of feed including pasture was $11.50 per hun-1 dred pounds gain. The total feed bill on the six farms was $6091.12. The sale value of the j hogs, after deducting marketing expense. was $6583.88, which left a margin of only $492.76 to cover labor, j equipment charge, interest on investment, etc. The cost of thes items was $2.10 per hundred pounds, or $1110.90 on the 52900 pounds of pork marketed. In other words, the returns lacked $617.14 of paying the cost of raising the hogs. The loss was unusually heavy on j one farm —over two-thirds of the en j tire amount. An analysis of th< methods followed on this farm shows ■ that the greatest cause of loss was failure to save the pigs at farrowing time. Only 37 per cent, of the pigs farrowed were raised to weaning time. It required 455 pounds of feed which cost $11.62 for each pig raised to weaning age. On a neighboring farm where 93 per cent, of the pigs were raised it took only 157 pounds of feed which cost $4.19 for each weanling pig. Here is a difference of over $7.00 in the feed cost of an eight-weeks-old, pig. due directly to the per cent, of the pigs raised. "It is personal care and attention during the farrowing season that saves young pigs," according to J. R. Wiley, animal husbandry extension man. man who raised only 37 per cent, ol his pigs allowed his sows to run together during the most of the farrow ing and suckling period. The older pigs robbed the younger ones, the result being many runts. The othei farmer who raised 93 per cent, of his pits gave each sow an individual farrowing house with an open lot about 15 feet square. The sows and their litter were kept separate until the pigs were five to six weeks old. "The things that enabled some of these six farmers to produce hogs more economically than the others were good rations, prolific sows and ■ painstaking care and management of the sows and their young pigs. Losses resulted from poor breeding stock and lack of good care and management." I Praise for the work of the Ameri- i can Farm Bureau Federation is voic-' ed by Dean J. H. Skinner of the Purdue University, College of Agriculture ' tn the feature article of the February ' number of the Purdue Agriculturist. "A real for sure farmers' organization of national scope and character, with ample funds to do things and a million and a quarter members in thirty-two states having state organizations, successfully launched within 15 months from the time of the first meeting or preliminary organization, is a wonderful record of achievement.” wrote Dean Skinner. "This record was doubtless made possible because of a real need which developed during the war and was further emphasized by the unusual economic conditions resulting from the war." That the county organizations should not expect too much of the national organization all at once and • should try to solve their own local community problems where they may 1 function best, was one of the points ; made in the article, which took up the relationship between county, state 1 and national organizations. ’ “There are great problems confronting the American farmers such i as proper credits, better transportation facilities, marketing and legis--1 lation. These are intimately linked ( up w’ith the industries, commerce, . business of a great nation and the world at large. They can only be i solved by the united effort of men of broad vision not only in agriculture J but in every walk of life. It is therefore Important that farmers’ repre-

MR— I sentutlves in these councils have the confidence anil bucking of the organ 1 I ration to the Inst man in the com munlty," says Prof. Skinner. • The American Farm Bureau is i fundamentally sound. It is exerting a powerful influence and deserves and j should have the hearty, generous financial support and co-operation of, every thinking farmer in America." i The Adams County Holstein Breed ers' association is planning a meeting for Thursday evening, March 3, Lit District No. 8. Monroe township.! i At. tills meeting it is planned tq hav.ij Li report from the delegates sent bythe Adams founty Farmers ussoclntion to the state dairy meeting r<_- ■ cently lield in Indianapolis. Plana will also be discussed whereby the testing of cattle for tubereulo-. sis cun be carried on with greater efficiency in the country. Since such a large number of herds in the county are coming under supervision it ibecoming a preblem as to how th< work can be carried on best. Other matters pertaining jo , the welfare of the organization will be discussed. Every farmer is welcome. On Wednesday evening. March 2. there will be a meeting at the school; building at Linn Grove for the pur pose of forming a county Poland' China Breeders association. Every! raiser of hogs is invited and breeders land prospective breeders of the Big Types are respectfully urged to at- ! tend.
