What Helps Agriculture
Helps All of Us
^ ... a . h I A .
TATHAT is it that helps agriculture? We know that '
V V to grow good crops it takes good seed, fertile soil,
a favorable climate, and the skill and experience of the
individual. Likewise in the production of livestock you
need well-bred animals, proper care and feeding, plus <
intelligent management.
Through better seeds and new types of plants like
hybrid com, through soil conservation methods, better
land management, and improved machinery, through
more effective control of pests and parasites, America
has reached a level of food production never before
achieved by any nation in history. Therein lies much of
America’s strength for the future.
By many a tragic example, history teaches us that
when food supplies fail, nations fall. We of America
must see to it that our agriculture becomes always a
stronger, surer base for the economy of our nation. This
is a task not only for you as producers but also for us
who, by providing nationwide facilities and services,
bridge the gap which separates farmers and ranchers
from the distant consumers who must have their
products.
And because our business is so closely linked with the
land, we at Swift & Company are vitally interested in
all developments that help agriculture. And so in these
Swift pages we publish helpful information, knowing
that a prosperous agriculture is essential to the live
stock and meat industry—and to the prosperity of the
nation as a whole.
President, Swift & Company
Soda Bill Sex:
. . . generally we should learn two things from
life—what to do and what not to do.
. . if work is a pleasure, a man sure can have a
lot of fun farming.
OUR UVESTOCK JUDGING METHODS
By R. G. JOHNSON
Hoad, Department of Animal Husbandry, Oregon State College
Domestic animals are machines for converting plant mate
rial into meat, fibers, and other human needs. Competition
forces the modern farmer to evaluate efficiency in terms of
tons or bushels per acre, dairy production in pounds of but
terfat per cow per year, and poultry results in number of
eggs per year. Thus, since the basic resource is feed and not
animals, shouldn’t livestock producers evaluate breeding
stock on the basis of meat or of wool their offspring pro
duces per 100 pounds of feed consumed?
The show ring standards for judging animals by external
appearance have given us advancement up to a certain point,
but breeding for the show ring does not always lead to effi
cient feed utilization.
A step in the right direction is the increasing use of proved
sires Today, through use of artificial insemination, the
purebred breeder is greatly assisted in the establishment and
increase of efficient blood lines.
Tomorrow's "yardstick” will not only be bigger yields per
acre but also more pounds of meat and fiber per ton of feed.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW? How many of the amino acids
essential to health are found in meat?
What governs the price of livestock?
In what dessert is meat an important ingredient?

THE EDITOR’S COLUMN j
A smart st^pr on range goes to where
k the forage is best. A smart livestock
r producer sells where the market is
best. There are many sources of in
formation to help him decide where
that best market may be. Kadio networks and
nearby stations report daily on receipts and
prices at central and local markets. Commission •
houses and their field men are ready to give per
sonal advice on the best time and place to sell.
Newspapers publish detailed description of
market conditions. Various timely reports are
available from the U. S. D. A. and other impar
tial sources on trends and developments h) the
livestock-and-meat industry. '
In making their bids, livestock buyers also use
current market information. Acceptance of any
price offered is entirely up to the producer or his
sales agent. Meat packing plants and their buy
ers are located at so many widespread points
that if a producer is not satisfied with prices
offered by any one buyer, he has a choice of sev
eral others to which he may sell his animals.
Moreover, with 3,500 meat packing plants
and 26,000 other concerns and individuals who
slaughtec livestock commercially, there is bound
to be keen competitive bidding for your live
stock. Barring meat rationing and price ceil
ings, livestock prices are governed by what the
packer can get for the meat and by-products.

“AMINOS” ARE IMPORTANT TO YOU! From the nu
trition research laboratories comes the story of amino acids,
mysterious substances found in the proteins we eat.
Aminos are used by our bodies to build and rebuild our
tissues, organs, and blood. They also help fight off in
fections.
Of the 23 known aminos, ten are absolutely essential to
health and even to life itself. Meat is rich in all ten of them.
That’s why doctors, working to rebuild the shattered
bodies of wounded servicemen, order diets with large
amounts of meat. That is also why everybody should eat
meat for health as well as for its fine flavor and its "stick
to-the-ribs” food value.
Swift and other merft packers, through The American
Meat Institute, are telling this vital story of meat and its
health-building ammos in many millions of advertising
messages. As people read this story, there will be wider
markets for meat—and the livestock you produce.

SORGHUMS ON INCREASE AS CATTLE FEED
By A. D. WEBER
Head, Department of Animal Husbandry
Kansas State College
Proof that the new combine-type ^
grain sorghums, Midland milo and
Westland milo are the equal of corn
as cattle feed, which was demon- —,
strated recently at the Fort Hays •
Branch of the Kansas Agricultural
experiment oration, win interest
feeders who fatten cattle in the Southwest.
Yearling steers fed these two new grains for 150
days gained 2 A pounds per head daily. This was
equal to results gained by feeding yearling steers No. 2
corn over a like period. The steers in each lot graded
the same (choice), and sold at the same price ($17.00
per cwt.). All grains were fed at the rate of 13 pounds
per head daily. Each ration included sweet sorghum
silage, 37 pounds; cottonseed meal, 1A pounds, and
finely ground limestone, 1-10 pound.
_ Three similar feeding trials also proved conclu
sively that the new combine-type grain sorghums
compare favorably with com as cattle fattening
feed—Wheatland milo, Colby milo and Westland
milo being tested in these trials.
Increasing use of native feed grains, such as these
new type grain sorghums, will greatly benefit the
stability and prosperity of this agricultural region.
