FIVE BILLION DOLLAR
P FAMILY BUSINESS
WHEN Grandma waa a farm girl, she tended the
chickens, milked the cows, churned the butter
(72 percent of the nation’s butter was home-churned
then; less than 20 percent today). When she pro
duced more eggs and butter than the family could eat,
she would trade the rest for "pin-money” or frills.
Today, Grandma’s "pin-money” has become BIG
money. Last year it added more than five hill inn
dollars to the income of U. S. farmers. That’s more
than hogs brought in—or cattle—or sheep. Just look:
And believe it or not, dairy products alone returned
more money to farm families than the entire corn
and wheat crops combined!
Any way you look at it, cows and chickens is a
great industry. It is nation-wide, too. California
and Texas are crowding close on the leaders—Wis
consin, New York, Minnesota, Iowa, and Pennsyl
vania. From millions of small dairy herds and
chicken flocks in every state, as well as from large
scale operations, comes the enormous volume of
dairy and poultry products that are such a vital
source of our nations food.

LET’S KEEP THE
MACHINE IN GEAR
In these clays of mechanized farm
ing practically everyone is famil
F. if. Simpton jar with the gears that make tho
wheels of trr ors, combines, and other equip
ment go ’round. We know that should one gear
be removed or get out of line—or even if a sin
gle gear-tooth is broken—the machine won’t
run smoothly, if at all.
It is much the same with the livestock and
meat industry. The three main gears are the
producer, the processor and the retailer. When
any one of these "driving gears” gets out of
order, then the entire industry suffers. Coordi
nation of their interests can contribute greatly
to the smooth functioning of the industry as a
whole. None of us gains by insisting too vigor
ously that our part of the industry is the only
one which has problems that matter. We gain
more by trying to look at our particular prob
lems as they affect all of us. In other words,
whatever hurts or helps tho producer hurts or
helps the processor and the retailer also.
The livestock and meat industry is an im
portant part of the national economic struc
ture. We at Swift & Company believe that we
can contribute moot to the welfare of America
—and ourselves—by promoting harmonious
practical working relations between producers,
processors and retailers.

Corn COBS Help
Fatten Steers
Ohio
by Paul Gqrlaugh -
Agricultural Experiment
Station *'
Com cobs are worth 50% of their
weight in ground shelled corn!
1 hat is the outstanding result of cattle-feeding
tests conducted here, with Dr. Wise Burroughs
and L. E. Kuakle. Steers fed corn-and-cob meal
graded the same (mostly choice) as similar steers
fed grovmd shelled corn. They gained as rapidly,
and dressed cut 601-”% against 61%. All rations
were balanced with 2 pounds soybean meal and
4 to 5 pounds cf hay per steer per day.
Incidentally, one lot of steers in the tests was
fed "double cob meal” in which an extra cob was
ground up with each ear of com. And here’s a
surprise . . . these steers did nearly as well as
those that got straight com-and-cob meal or
ground shelled com. It may be more profitable
to feed corn cobs to cattle than to bum them in
the kitchen stove.
On the basis of these tests, a ton of com-and
cob meal is just as good for fattening cattle as
1,800 pounds of ground shelled com. And the
com-and-cob meal costs less because both time
and money are saved by eliminating the shelling
operation.

Hens in your flocks that
are still producing egga
regularly in the early fall
months are superior lay
ers. They are the oneeto
save for breeding stocky
writes H. L. Kempster,
cnairman oi me depart
meat of poultry husband
ry at the University of Missouri.
Mr. Kempster says it s easy to select the good
layers. They are the hens with white bleached
shanks and with old, frayed and brittle plumage.
The slick hens with yellow legs and smooth
feathers are the ones that should be used for
poultry meat. They should be culled out of your
flock to make room for mature, ready-to-lay
pullets now on the range. As it doesn’t pay to sell
laying hens, try to examine all individuals in your
flock carefully. A red comb and moist, expanded
vent are sure signs of a layer. If the vent is dry,
puckered and yellow, you may be certain that
hen has stopped laying for some time.
ROY GUY REALLY
KNOWS SHEEP
When Roy F. Guy, head
lamb buyer for Swift & Com
pany at Chicago since 1931,
was a lad of 17, he answered
an ad in a Kansas City news
paper. That led to his first
job with Swift as a $4-a-week
messenger boy. Before his Roy F. Guy
first year ended, he had in show ring
doubled his salary and was getting a start in calf
buying. At the ripe age of 22, Boy Guy was head
calf buyer at Chicago. He held this post for 10
years and then went back to the starting line to
learn lamb buying. In his 46 years with Swift,
Roy Guy has bought many million lambs and
judged in many a show ring. But his greatest
pride is in the boys he hired and trained who have
made good with the Company. "I always told a
new boy to be careful in choosing his Company
i i. and to stay with it»” be aaya.
