Ad' Out of the sandhills of Nebraska, up from the Chama country of New Mexico all the way from the state of Washington to Texas, a flood of livestock on the move. Feeder cattle and lambs raised in the great grass-growing regions of the United States are flowing into the feed lots of October, and its significance is of great economic importance to all of us in the livestock-meat industry. These millions of head of feeder cattle and lambs are nothing more than grass turned into meat.

True, these feeders will require a certain amount of grain to finish them as satisfactory meat animals. why they go into the feed lots. But were it not for these grazing animals, acres of the land area of the United States would produce little, if any, human food In other words, of the total land of our nation consists of grass land which cannot be used for producing other feeds and foods. Also taking into consideration the plowable land used to produce pasture, hay and other forage crops, approximately half of our land would produce no food of human value, were it not for livestock. Of the total feeds consumed by beef cattle, 78.7% is grass, hay and dry roughages.

With lambs, it is 95.6%. These are official figures of the United States Department of Agriculture. Thus, the grain that into feeder cattle and lamb rations is but a relatively small part of the feed that makes our meat. A minimum of corn is needed to bring feeder steers from 700 to 1,000 pounds when the principal part of the ration is made up of fodder, corn silage, other available roughages and some concentrates. In addition to utilizing grass which otherwise would be wasted, the production of livestock furnishes the nation with its finest nutritional food meat.

In the great movement of meat from the Western range to the kitchen range, the stop-over in the feed lots increases the amount of meat. It also levels out the fall flood of livestock into a more even year-round marketing. Thus seasonal price fluctuations are not so marked. In the production of livestock, the majority of 6.000,000 farmers and ranchers find the chief means of marketing their grass and other homegrown feeds. MANY ACCIDENTS CAN BF.

PREVENTED Every three minutes there is a farm or ranch accident. Unless something is done. 19,500 people may be killed in such accidents tins year. Another 1.800,000 may be injured. We at Swift Company want to help cut down this accident toLl.

why we print the pictures and the questions which follow. Little chances not taken, little repairs made, can prevent big accidents. Do you take the chances shown below? Check yourself.

Do you lead the bull around on a rope because you do not have a bull-staff? Do you approach horses from behind without speaking and patting their rumps to warn them? Then watch yourself one out of four fatal farm accidents occurs in handling livestock.

I approach animals without warning rn i I am never careless around machinery I sometimes take chances with machinery Do you leave safety shields off power shafts, gears and chains? Wear loose-fitting clothing that may catch in machinery? Operate the tractor on dangerous inclines or banks? Mishandled machinery and equipment are in nearly one out of three fatal farm accidents. TEAMWORK While we were preparing the "Grass is on the article for this page, a cattleman friend from one of the western range states called to see me. I told him about the article. "It points I said, "that lots of food for humans is produced from areas that otherwise would be waste land if it were not for meat He said, good! There are always misguided people who complain that a waste to feed corn and other grains to livestock. They say people ought to eat the grain, instead of turning it into meat.

They forget that most of that meat is made of grass, hay and other roughage that people can't eat. Another thing too many people he went on, "Is the important job you meat packers do in getting meat to the people who want it. I understand that meat travels an average of more than 1,000 miles from producers to consumers. That must be so because we fellows west of the Mississippi raise two-thirds of the livestock. But two-thirds of the meat Is eaten east of the Mississippi, where most of the people live.

In a way, we who raise and finish the animals are like manufacturers. And you are our sales and distributing departments. Believe me, we need an organization that covens the nation to get our product into every market in this big country'. It seems to me that you and we are in this business together, and neither could get along without the CM I It seems to me that right! Simp yon, Agricultural Research Department SELECTING JUNIOR CLUB STEERS by W. H.

Peters University of Minnesota Every boy and girl who enters a junior feeding contest would like to wEkk secure a feeder steer good enough w. a. to become a champion. In selecting calves with this high aim in mind, the "satisfactory must be a purebred or high- grade of one of the recognized beef breeds, Shorthorn, Hereford, or Angus. The calf or yearling steer in thin condition must appear short in legs in proportion to his depth of body, or to put it the other way around, he must appear deep in body in proportion to his length of legs.

He must then appear to be wide in his body and thickly covered with muscle, especially over the loin and down through the thighs. The feeder calf should have a short neck and a short, broad head. He should appear moderately fine or small in the legs and head as an indication that he will fatten smoothly and show quality when fat. Large, coarse-appearing calves and small over-refined ones seldom develop into winners. Calves that appear nervous and easily excited or frightened should be avoided as they are likely to not do well and to be hard to train to lead.

All these products are perishable and require refrigeration. Many consumers buy their butter, cheese, eggs, poultry and meats from the same store. So, as you can see, it is more economical to have one Swift Company salesman who sells 16 or more products than 16 salesmen each selling one product. Further, costs are reduced by having the same deliver these products at the same time to the same dealer. By preparing, handling and selling dairy and poultry products, as well as meat, distribution costs are reduced on all these foods, Our objective is to provide wider outlets for the products of farms and ranches.
