FARM BUREAU MEETING
The Independence County
Farm Bureau will have its
regular meeting Saturday,
July 9, at 1:00 p. m. at the
Chamber of Commerce.
TO TRAIN STOCK JUDG
ING TEAM
H. K. Thatcher, District
Agent, will be in Batesville
Thursday to assist in instruct
ing the county stock judging
team. Three club boys will
be selected to represent this
county at Fayetteville in Aug
ust and there a team will be
selected to represent the state
at Atlanta. The state team
winning at Atlanta will be giv
en a trip to the International
Stock Show at Liverpool. Eng
land. The Texas team won
this trip last year and the
boys are in England at the
present time.
Arkansas made a very cred
itable showing at Atlanta last
year and we hope to win the
trip to England this year.
There is no reason why at
least one boy from Indepen
dence county cannot make thisi
team. The team Thursday
will have some class work and
afterward will be carried to
several farms where they can
judge some pure bred live
stock. They will be given
practice on Duroc Jersey and
Poland China hogs, Jersey and
Holstein dairy cattle, Red Poll
ed and Shorthorn beef cattle
and two wTell known breeds
of sheep.
HOG SHIPMENT
The Farm Bureau will ship
a car load of hogs on the
cooperative plan Saturday,
July 9. It is requested that
those who have listed their
hogs for this shipment get
them in early and bring feed
for two days for them. The
hog market is higher now
than it has been for several
months, the top Tuesday, July
5, being $9.40.
FARM BUREAU ADVOCATE
The second issue of the
Farm Bureau Advocate will
be out this week. If you have
not been receiving this paper
let us know and we will be
glad to put your name on the
mailing list. The Farmers'
Exchange is still open to the
farmers of the county and has
been the custom heretofore no
charge will be made for this
advertising.
LAMB SHIPMENT POST
PONED
The Farm Bureau some
time ago set the date for the
cooperative shipment of lambs
for Saturday, July 9, but since
the date was set most of the
growers have said that a later
date would suit them better.
The shipment will probably
be made the latter part of this
month. If you have lambs
that you would like to put in
this car please list them with
the county agent as soon as
possible.
THE FARM BUREAU
The Farm Bureau is not
urged as a panacea for all ^lls
or a balm of Gilead that will
cure all economic wounds, but
it is a tried and tested plan
that has brought prosperity
to other farmers. It will do
the same thing for Indepen
dence County farmers if they
will use it.”
J. B. DANIELS,
County Agent.
Mrs. Mattie Robison came
