The only other countries that produced cotton for Export were India and Egypt. But | that's not true today. The amount i of cotton foreign countries pro- ; duced last year more than equalled j the crop rf over 12,000,000 hales our ; farmers raised. Ours was not a ! bumper cotton crop, but it was i slightly over the preceding 10-year 1 average. India topped the list of other cotton countries with 4,900,000 bales.. * Three million more came from Brazil. The Russian and Chinese crops ran about 2,500,000 bales each, and the Egyptian crop nearly 1,- 000,000 bales last year. Mexico and I Argentina picked over 500,000 bales | apiece. Peru's cotton crop was over ! 350,000 bales, and leaser crops were {grown in British East Africa, the I Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, the Belgian I Congo, Turkey and Burma. I Stocks of cotton in Egypt, India, and Latin America are exceptionally I high with a combined total that exceeded the nearly 10,750,00(M>ale carry-over in the United States at the beginning of the current sea* son. A foreign export surplus - of around 13,000,000 bales is available for release on world markets as soon as shipping and other wartime difficulties are overcome. The economists say mora foreign cotton farmers wUl grow American Upland cotton after the war, because that is the kind of cotton most foreign spinners want. Also, experience has shown that foreign farmers are likely to sell their cotton at a lower price than our cotton farmers are willing to accept. •If Talk : > Mrs. loots--My husband ti an ef. flciency expert at the office.

Produce Eggs D--lreJ By Commniif Public The wishes of the consumer are to be given greater consideration is future egg had poultry marketing programs in Wisconsin. Producers will be educated as to what the consumer wants and will buy rather than on what they find K most easy to produce. gram for the state irara includes the development of a larger city do* maad for Wisconsin graded eggs, with particular attention to consumers in the larger industrial cities, as weU as those of the lake shore region and the Fox river valley. Also included is a consumer preference survey to be made in Milwaukee and such other large cities as may be found advisable by the agricultural economics department of the University of Wisconsin. The marketing program will seek stimulation of s daily year-round rather than occasional or fesUve use of poultry, turkey, and waterfowl. It aims not only to increase the state demand for Wisconsin produced chicks, hatching eggs, poults and breeding stock, but of identifying eggs, poultry, turkeys, waterfowl, chicks, poults, and breeding stock reaching out-of-state markets by federal-state labels. Grade buying programs are to be developed. Pointing out Ahat poultry has often operated at a disadvantage because it has not had proper protection in state or national legislation, the program suggests that contacts be made at city, county, state and national levels in order to obtain such results. Stating that in» the effort toward increasing the volume of product, the consumer has been overlooked ar its buyer, the program adds that excellent response by housewives and larger volume buyers is found when demonstrating poultry prepa* ration and egg quality or uses. Cholera |"«t--fnllis Immunization is the moat dependable protection against hog cholera, according to U. S. department of agriculture experts. Serum inoculations have cut down losses in,recent years, but it is pofcted out that all possible precautions should be taken to keep non-immune hogs in lots away from public highways as far as is feasible, to quarantine new Stock in separate pens for several weeks, and to exclude visitors from premises used by swine, especially if cases of hog cholera appear in the neighborhood. This dangerous and costly disease strikes hardest during the fall and early winter, and hog raisers are waned to immunize i their spring pigs. Losses of non- 1 immune pigs from hog cholera over , long periods tend to increase and recede in a wavelike manner, and since they have been relatively low for aeveral years, vigilance is i urged against a possible increase in 1945. \f faaary Grass . years of trials with canary grass silage have shown it is by no means as good as corn silage. Steers do not like it aS well, do not gain as test on it, and do not put on quite as good a finish. The merit of canary grass lies in the fact that, despite its limitations, it is a useful product that can be grown on land which is too wet for corn or most other crops--land which would very likely be wasted if it did net pcodiico canary grass.
