CAN THEY REPEAT?
MoPac To Be Represented
In a letter to K. B. Erard, Mr. L
W. Baldwin, president of the Missouri
Pacific Lines, an ardent advocate of
diversified farming. expressed his j
strong endorsement of the efforts of j
the promoters of the Kleberg County :
Dairy and Livestock Show and enclofr j
ed the largest subscription to its pre-1
rnium list made this year. Mr. Bald- j
win. expressing his regret to be una-
ble to be in Kingsville at the time of
the show, stated that Mr. E. H. Me-
Reynolds, his personal representative,
would attend. Mr. McReynolds is the
editor of the Missouri Pacific Maga -
zine and, by reason of his former vis-'
its. is well known locally. Mr. Gay*!
lord J. Stone, president of the Uni-
versal Mills and Mr. McReynolds are!
to speak at the College on Saturday
evening.
A. &. M. Men Short Couose Speakers
The A. A- M. College of Texas will be j

dairying, swine and poultry husband-
ry. The judging will be in the hands
of these men In all departments, ac- j
cording to Mr. Wilkinson. Prof. A.

Below is a list of the winners in the Jersey classes of the 1927* Dairy and Poultry Show. It will be noted that all of the owners
were residents of Kleberg County—in fact, each of the 25 exhibitors of Jerseys last year was a resident of Kleberg County
With the lists thrown open to patrons of the Dairy Products Company, regardless of their place of residence, the question
arises, “Can these exhibitors repeat their success of last year? The improvement in the class of dairy stuff shown by these
same people will show a marked improvement, no doubt, due in a large measure to the excellent work done by the improvement
section of the Kleberg County Dairy and Standard Bred Livestock Association. With the advantage the Kleberg County Dairy-
men have had in the co-operation of the Ranch, a decided improvement will be shown, especially in the calf classes.
Dairymen of Jim Wells, Brooks and Duval have been improving their herds over a number of years, and those of Nueces
County have used exceptionally good judgment in picking their foundation stock. Kleberg County may not have the monopoly
on Blue Ribbons +his year. At any rate, here’s the list that our dairymen may compare the 1928 winnings with those of the pre-

POULTRY PAYS IN
KLEBERG COUNTY
! The statement that poultry pays in
i Kleberg county has been repeatedly
proven, vet many farmers who should
be making a substantial monthly re-
turn from the poultry yard hesitate
to “go into the chicken business’’ be-
cause of the initial outlay for a poul-
try plant that embodies all the modern
sanitary features and conveniences
recommended by the poultry speciali-
sts of our agricultural colleges. Many
others build their plants regardless
of the expense invoved and have too
great an Investment in plant to pay
dividends on the small flocks they
house. Here in Kleberg County the
mild climate permits the use of the
simplest and most inexpensive type
of poultry houses; provided, o! course
the common sense rules of sanitation
are observed.
As a case in point, Miss Robbie
Lilly, county home demonstration
agent, cites the record made by Mrs.
A. A. Kilpatrick living, living upon a
rented farm in the Ricardo district.
This lady began keeping records on
her flock on January first of this year.
At that time she had a flock of 175
Barred Rock hens of good stock. Dur-
ing the first nine months of the year
Mrs. Kilpatrick has sold from this
flock $338.53 worth of eggs and
$248.98 worth of fryers, culls and old
j hens a gross income for nine months
of $587.46 from the 175 hen flock.
The flock that served as a founda-
tion was culled last fall and again
this spring, all the old hens and culls
being disposed of on the local market,
and on October 1 there were an even
175 good layers still on the yard. The
feed bill during the nine mouths
amounted to $199.66, leaving a balance
of $387.80.
Being renters, and knowing that
the place on which they lived was to
j be sold, the Kilpatricks made no spe-
| c-ial provision for the shelter of their
! flock, but they kept their roosting
! place and yards clean, provided a
1 balanced egg producing ration, and
j culled to keep down the expense of
| supporting non-layers.
The extension service workers in
the county point to this record as one
worthy of note, because it stands as
proof that the tenant farmer or the
land owner of small means need not
be barred from entry into this profita-
ble branch of farming because of the
lack of capital to erect expensive
buildings.

Dr. J. H. Northway. veterinary sur-
geon and director of the Kleberg
County Dairy and Livestock Show,
has advised those in charge of the
swine exhibit that, due to a recent
outbreak of hog cholera in adjoining
counties, hogs from other than this
county will nt be received for exhibits
and that these must be g iven a single
treatment of anti-cholera serum.
Dr. Northway’s statement is as fol-
lows:
"Owing to the recent outbreak of
hog cholera in adjoining counties, it
is thought best to bar all hogs from
livestock and dairy matters.
