W. Barnes, animal husbandman of the Texas A. and M. College Extension Serv- ice pointed out in discussing the long-time outlook for beef cattle recently released by the U. S.

Department of Agriculture Bureau of Agricultural 'Cattle production operates in cycles," Barnes said. "The high point in cattle numbers was reached in 1934, and declined to the low point by January 1, 1938. This year will see cattle numbers increase about 1 per cent, and apparently the increase in the new cycle has started. "Barring the recurrence of a series of drought years such as prevailed from 1934 to 1937 it seems fairly certain that cattle numbers will tend to expand for some years. The rate and extent of this increase cannot be predicted now, but it appears unlikely that cattle numbers will reach as high a peak in the present cycle as was reached early in 1934." Barnes pointed out that increasing numbers of cattle in the next few years will come largely from withholding cattle, mostly cows and calves, from slaughter.

Supplies of hogs and hog slaughter are expected to expand rather sharply, and total meat supplies will be larger than the average of the past 4 years. During 1939 it is expected that fewer cattle and calves will be slaughtered than in the year, with the reduction chiefly in calves, cows, and heifers. With plentiful supplies of feed the finish and weights of cattle slaughtered will still be relatively high. inch of 20 sections about seven south of Bakersfield. The ranch is fully improved.
