State Offers Big Field
For the Development of
Purebred Stock Industry
The return to normal eondi
tions and the more profitable
markets for live stock which
noiw prevail are factors which
are causing additional interest
in the improvement in the
herds and the flocks of the
farms and the foundation of
more herds of purebred ani
mals.
Of the 232,602 farms in Ark
ansas only 15,475 of them re
ported in the 1920 census as
owning purebred stock of any
kind. The field for expansion
of the livestock industry in
both imrpovement of farm
herds and the breeding and dis
tribution of purebred animals is
large and the possiblities of
the farmer in ths drectiou
are great. This unlimited field
can be developed rapidly if
those who are now growing
livestock in the state wish rapid
development.
The organization of livestock
breeders into the community or
county association for the pro
moton of better livestock in
that immediate section is of
far-reaching benefit. Several
county associations which have
been in operation for a period
of several years are doing an
inestimable amount of good in
inducing farmers to use pure
bred sires to head the farm
herds, to use better methods
of management, to co-operate
in preventing and eradicating
diseases and in developing co
operative shipping and sales of
surplus animals.
Associations have recently
been organized in Logan and
Independence counties with
these objects in view and will
no doubt have an immediate
effect on livestock improve
ment in the sections reached
The standardization of the
livestock of the county will be
one of the first problems to be
undertaken by these associa
• tions. It is planned to reach
, the farmers with information
as to the benefits to be derived
I from the keeping of the im
proved kinds of livestock and
through public sales, aid to pig
jclubs, arid other means to make
; it possible for the improved
animals produced by the breed
ers to be distributed among the
farcers in the county where
they are produced.
The organization of the
breeders in other counties is
needed and then the united ac
tion of all in receiving interest
in an organization of livestock
growers into a state association
which will develop the enthu
siasm among the breeders and
render them the assistance
which was rendered in past
years. Livestock breeders
working together should en
courage others to become
breeders, for at present, there
is no need to fear competition.
Each association developen in
the state will furnish another
demonstration of the value of
improved animals for farm pur
poses and cause farmers to de
jmand purebred blood for the
improvement of the farm herds.

THE CANDIDATE
II II || II || II II II II
The candidate is on the path
That leadeth to the voter,
And in the nick of time he hath
Become a great promoter.
The bumper smile with which
he comes
Is shining as a saber,
And Sam and Billy are hb
chums,
And never lout his neighbor.
He tells his name and hand.
his card,
And grips your bony section,
And then solicts your regard
The day of the election.
Your health is greatly his con
cern,
Your interest interesting,
About your welfare he would
learn,
And furthers your investing.
With looks a swise as those ol
Clay,
And smile as bland as Grady’s
He sweetly bows, on picnic day
To gentleman and ladies.
Unto his fellow underlings
His promises are plighted,
That when he gets the run ol
things
Their wrongs shall be righted.
And with such eloquence am
force
He sets his claims before us,
'1 hat Jones has yelled his thro1
tie hoarse
And Smith has joined in th<
chorus.
And White and Brown are hal
inclined
On hearing this oration,
Their former pledges to unbind
And cut their obligation.
O candidate, () candidate,
For commonwealth or county,
How sure, how certain is youi
fate,
How vague your dream o
bounty,
Be it remembered, this remarl
Implies no added odium
Tho those who figure stiff anc
stark
Flat up the river Sodium.
O candidate, O candidate,
Be chary of your nickle,
Nor treat the leech who al
too late
Will leave you in a pickle.
Ho eat old Granger’s apple pit
And pet his wife and babies;
Be on your ,guard how yoi
rely
On his unmeaning maybes.
