JUNIOR RED CROSS
INTEREST IS GROWING
It is pleasing to see the in
terest the schools are taking
in the Junior Red Cross work,
11 applications having been
sent in already.
'the motto of the Juniors is
“I SERVE,” and the ‘‘Service
Rcll” which every child signs
on becoming a member con
tains these inspiring words:
“We will seek in all ways to
live up to the ideals of the
Junior Red Cross and devote
ourselves to its service.
“We will strive never to
bring discredit to our Country,
by any unworthy act.
“We will revere and obey
our country’s laws and do our
best to inspire a like reverence
and obedience In those about
us.
“We will endeavor in all
these ways, as good citizens,
to transmit America greater,
better,'v and more beautiful
than she was transmitted to
us.”
I can think of nothing more
inspirng, more uplifting, or
more beautiful toan these
words for our girls and boys.
As to service, each Auxiliary
can choose for themselves.
There are many avenues open
to every community club, such
as “Community Improvement,”
“Civic Pride and Gardens,”
Playgrounds, Nature Study,
Traveling Libraries, Health,
Fly and Mosquito Campaigns,
: etc.
Let’s work out a pleasant
and profitable program, and
above all let the seniors help
and encourage the boys and
girls in this great work.

NEED MORE HOGS
FOR SURPLUS FEED
_
Only about three-fiftfhs as
many sows were bred in the
the fall of 1920 for the spring
farrow of 1921 as in the pre
ious year, according to T. R.
Reid, Extension agent of the
University of Arkansas. Dur
gin the past year the total
number of hogs in the country'
decreased 7.1 per cent over the!
previous year, he says.
This decrease indicates aj
shortage of pigs this year
even though a larger per cent
of the spring farrow should
be brought to maturity. With
proper seasonal conditions,
there will be a surplus of feed
for finishing hogs, and an
increased number of hogs will
be needed to consume a pos
sible surplus of such perish
able crops as are being plan
ted this year.
Special care should be ta
ken to save the pigs which are
farrowed this spring. Atten
tion at farrowing time, sani
tary quarters, sunlght, and
exercise are necessary to save
and develop the pigs properly.
Young pigs should be taught tc
eat when they are about three
or four weeks old ai d should
be developed sufficiently for
weaning at from eight to 10
weeks old. The sows should bs
bred for fall litters for the
pigs from these litters will be
the kind with which to meet
the demand for stoker and
feeder pigs next winter and
sprig.
