Club Boys Calves
To Show In Tulia
During January
SWIshor County Club boys Will
BhoW their calves nt Kress Tulla
ami Happy sometime during tho
month of January according to
county agent C D Martin who accompanied
by D Burns tleold rep
resontatlvo of tho National Cot
tonseed Products Association who
lives at Dallas but who at ono
time during 1918 wintered sovoral
hundred cattle on tho Rogers
Ranch oast of Tulia S F Florcs
G C Hutchison and F P Eng oman
visited a number of tho
farms in tho southwest part of
tho county last Monday rtornoon
to see he calves thnt tho boys
aro feeding
Tho farms visited were J P
ODanlol Robt Roussor Will
Rousser L F Hargrave E O
Catos J J Williams J W Hamilton
and John Adams Tho majority
of tho calves seem to be
doing well and If what woro
seen on that trip Is n criterion
Swisher county will again bring

Worth as they did last year
Feeding Becomlnn Popular
Tho boys of this county aro
proving that feeding beef cattle
in this section is a paying business
aud that farmers would profit
In moro ways than ono by feeding
their grain than by selling
it In tho first place moro money
is Toallzed by marketing grain
on the hoof than by the bushol
Thon too the grain can bo grown
hero cheaper than many places
where land Is vnlued so highly
and tho valuo of obtaining fertilizer
is also of valuo in keeping
the land in a state of high fertility
Wo may not think this important
now but after years of ono crop j
in farming wo will see the value of<
T It
This is a fino wheat growing
country but It Is also a fine country
for the raising and feeding of
beef cattle Too many unfinished
cattlo are shipped to other points
to bo finished when It Is provon
that they can be finished hero at
home cheaper than thoy can bo
shipped to distant points to be
fed out
Old Idea Fading Away
Tho Idea that cattle cannot bo
finished properly on our grain
sorghums Is swiftly passing away
and more fat cattlo have been
shipped during the past year thnn
ever before from this country
yet tho feeding fndustry beto Is
just In Its infancy Why should
tvo go to tho trouble and exponso
of breodlng and raising stock cat
tlo and then shipping them when
theyj are Just ready for us to make
some easy money Tf soma ono
1000 miles away can pay tho
frolgbt on them and feed them and
ship to market from there why
can not Swisher formers make
more byraising and feeding horo
at home Thoy can Thoy aro
doing so every yearLong

Long Distance Calls
To Be Again Reduced
The fourth reduction In long
distance telephone rates In s little
moro than three years will be
made January 1st according to
word received hero from Tom A
White district manager of tho
Southwestern Boll Telephono Com
pany The ut will mean a saving
of approximately five million
dollars to telephone users In the
Hrited States
It will apply principally to day
statlontostatlon rates to points
CO to 300 miles distant Stationto
station rates aro those which apply
to calls placed to a distant
number rather to a particular person
In most instances these will
he reduced ten cents although in
