MAKE CO-OPERATIVE
SHIPMENT OF HOGS
Arrangements have been
; made by County Agent Leland
Bunch to ship out one or two
| carloads of fat hogs co-t>pera
tively from Batesville between
the fifteenth and the twentieth
of February. State Marketing
Agent J. II.Tull will be present
and help in marking and bill
ing the hogs belonging to the
different farmers. Mr. Tull’s
experience will help materially
in making a success of this, the
first co-operative shipment of
live stock from Independence
County.
Cooperative shipping of live
stock has been extensively
done in many states and to a
rather limited extent in Ark
ansas. It has been the popular
way of disposing of surplus
stock whereever it has been
tried and no doubt the farmers
of this county will welcome the
opportunity it offers. The hogs
will be shipped to St.Louis and
Government man will be there
to look after the interests of
the shippers when the cars ar
rives.
County Agent Bunch expects
to make some co-operative
shipments of live stock from
Newark just as soon as the far
mers are ready to dispose of
their stock. Likely one or more
cars can be shipped from here
during the month of February.
WONDER IF THIS IS ONE
OF RANEY’S NEGROES
A Mississippi county negro
was drafted into the army, sent
to Camp Mills, New York, and
was placed on board a trans
port with thousands of others
after darkness had encompass
ed the earth, and did know
what was going on, only that
he was getting on a boat. Next
morning when he arose from
his slumber the vessel was far
out to sea and nothing but wa
ter could bo seen. The negro,
with dilated eyes and tottery
legs, stumbled to the railing of
the vessel, and said: “Lawd,
Gawd, de levee am dun broke.”
