Nebraska livestock 13 valued at
$219,065,000 arrainst $122,045,000 a
year ago. All livestock on farms total
7.383,000 head against 6,802.000
head a year ago. The significant fea
ture is the increase of 79 percent in
value over a year ago on an increase
of only 9 percent in the number or
head, says the State and Federal Di
vision of Agricultural Statistics.
Horses and mules decrease while
other classes showed slight increase
except sheep where the Increase was
marked.
The Increase in value of 79 per
cent over a year ago Is very signin-
cant In Nebraska because 70 percent
t the income of farms is derived from
livestock and its products. Milk
cows, other cattle and sheep are nor
mal or slightly above in numbers.
Work stock is considerably below
normal and swine are far below nor
mal. The trend of production of
swine is upward with a substantial
increase of the fall pig crop and the
prospective Increase of the spring pig
crop.
Horses total 612,000 head against
651,000 head a year ago and the
1931-35 average of 689,000 head.
The average value is $86 per head
against $64 a year ago and the total
value of $52,377,000 against $41,
941,000 a year ago.
The estimate of mules 13 70,000
head against 75,000 head a year ago
and the 1931-35 average of 86,000
head .The average value is $105 per
head against $81 a year ago, and the
total value of $7,358,000 against $6,
063,000 a year ago.
All cattle on rarin3 total 3,491,000
head against 3,232,000 head a year
ago and the 1931-35 average of 3,-
479,000 head. The average value per
head is $34.30 against $18 a year ago
and the total value is $119,715,000
against $58,193,000 a year ago. The
reduction in cattle was not nearly as
heavy as expected and the present
value is over twice the value a year
ago.
Milk cows and heifers two years
old and over total 720.000 head
against 750,000 head a year ago and
the 1931-35 average of 748,000 head
The average value of milk cows is
$49 per head against $27 a year ago
and the total value is $35,280,000
against $20,250,000 a year ago. These
values are Included under all cattle
There are 1,074,000 sheep on farms
as compared with 810,000 a year ago
