European sellers and buyers haggle over individual animals. In South America most of thp dealing is done right on the estand as, where the livestock is raised. But here in the leading livestock nation of the world, for 75 years central markets have played a big part in the job of moving meat toward dinner tables of the United States. When a carload of livestock rolls off the prairies or out of the mountains into one of the 65 or more great central markets, the animals are "greeted” and "registered” at the unloading dock, much as travelers are received and regis tered in hotels. From there they are sent to their "rooms”—the pens assigned to the commission man to whom the owner has shipped his animals. There these hogs, cattle, calves and lambs are rested and given food and drink. Just as hotels compete for guests, so these central markets compete with each other for the business of accommodating the 88 million head of livestock which come in each year. Thou sands of livestock buyers and order buyers bid against each other and the sale is made to the highest bidder. With 26,000 meat packers and other commercial slaughterers active in livestock — Soda Bill Sez: ... to be a success at farming, you have to dig in. . . . if you want to realize that castle in the air, you had better get down to earth first. Things Are NOT Always as They Seem The mechanical device pictured above shoots the ball marked A and at the same instant drops the ball marked B straight down. It certainly looks as if B will hit the ground first, since ball A has so much farther to go. But the fact is that they will both strike the ground at precisely the same instant. In our business, too, things are not always as they seem. On September 1, 1946, the U. S. Dept, of Agriculture reported that in the entire country there were 356 million pounds of meat stocks in cold stor age. That is a lot of pounds. But actually it is the lowest on record for that date . . . and compares with 626 million a year ago and a 631-million average for 1941-1945. Here in America we eat about 50 million pounds of meat a day, so the September 1 supply of meat in cold storage was barely enough to feed us for seven days. 4 I I I i APPLE TORTE | Yield: 6 servings t I 1 tablespoon melted butter J 1 •Ofl 4 tart cooking apples ' 1 cup sugar Vi teaspoon vanilla 72 cup sifted flour 2 teaspoons baking powder Vi cup nutmeats Vi cup chopped raisins or dates I I Pare and chop applet.

DANCE At SUMMERLAND Ewing Sunday, Nov. 17 Music by MAL DUNN and His Fine Band buying, it is easy to see that the American livestock marketing system is the most com petitive in the world. These "livestock hotels” are a separate branch of the livestock-meat industry. They are pri vately owned. Swift & Company does not own a single share of any stockyards company. Thanksgiving In this Thanksgiving month, the people of our nation—and of many other nations—owe a debt of gratitude to the ranchers and farmers of America. All through the war, in spite of its tremendous re quirements, our people ate well. And in spite of sharing with the earth s hungry, our people are still eating well. Today, to be sure, not all the meat they would like to have . . . but plenty of nutritious food to keep them well and strong. That is because for long years millions of farm and ranch men, women and children have kept the food supply up, working harder than ever before, overcoming shortages of help and machinery and many other obstacles. Yes, Americans may well offer thanks this month to all those who produce our food. (-OUR CITY COUSIN-1 City Cousin on the farm Thought that there was little harm In eating apples by the dozen... Now he is our sickly cousinl by P. S. Shearer Iowa State College How should Corn Belt cattle feeders prepare corn to get best results from their feeding? As ear corn, shelled corn, r. s. s/iearer COrn-and-cob meal, or ground shelled corn? The following may be helpful in deciding: X. Are hogs following the cattle? If not, the evidence seems clear that grinding either the whole ear or shelled com will pay. Feeding ear com is especially wasteful if hogs are not following the cattle, or if lots are muddy and the hogs have little chance to salvage corn thrown out of the bunks or passed through the steers. . . . 2.

JOc, plus tax 2c, tot. 12c SPREAD When visiting with livestock producers on farms or ranches, or at meetings, the subject of "spread” often comes up for discussion. Then I give them an explanation of the difference between the price they get for livestock and the price we meat packers receive for the meat we sell. To me it is a source of continual surprise that the spread is not greater.than it is. Dur ing my years of experience in the livestock meat industry, here is what I have learned about spread. We at Swift & Company have been paying farmers and ranchers approxi mately 76*, on the average, out of every dol lar we receive from those to whom we sell, for all products we process and handle, including hides, glands, and all by -products. That leaves us 24* to cover the cost of processing and marketing. Out of the 24* comes the cost of buying livestock and other agricultural products. The cost of preparation and refrigeration. The cost of loading them into cars and trucks. The cost of transporting them to our branch houses or to retailers. The cost of branch house operation and of selling and delivering the products to the retail dealers. In addi tion, we have taxes to pay; plus insurance and all the other necessary costs of doing business. When all these expenses have been paid, we make a profit, which over a period of years has averaged a fraction of a cent a pound on the 6H billion pounds of products we handle annually. There is no other business in the country that does so much for so little. .$!**[> ton. Agricultural Research Department S~\ PREPARATION OF CORN FOR CATTLE FEEDING greatly in hardness of kernel, (grinding hard corn is recommended, whereas grinding might not be needed with softer corn. 3. What will the preparation cost? Costs of shelling and grinding differ from farm to farm due to labor, power and other charges. If the cost exceeds the gains derived, preparation doesn’t pay* 4. Will an experienced, careful feeder do the feeding? Com-and-cob meal is rated as a safer, preparation in the hands of inexperienced feeders than either shelled or ground shelled com. Corn is a good cattle feed any way it may be pre* pared and one will not go far wrong with any of tho standard preparations. Even our damaged, moldy com surprised many with its feeding value this past winter.
