Big Slump Felt
in Feeding Game
Short Corn and Hay Crops and High
Price of Feeders Combine to
Make Uninviting Prospect.
Decreased cattle feeding in the
corn belt is still indicated. All in
formation shows a marked reduction
in Nebraska, says the state and fed
eral division of agricultural statistics.
Shipments of stocker and feeder
cattle into the state for the four
month period July to October are
34,000 head less than for the same
period last year. This represents a
20 per cent reduction. Railroad rec-,
ords of cars of cattle received at
feeder stations July to September
compared to last year. However,'
about 30 per cent of the cattle fed
in Nebraska are produced locally and
do not show up in station receipts.'
The number of locally produced cat-'
tie placed on feed will probably be
about normal except in the central
area and southern third of the state,
where considerable reduction has
taken place due to hay and feed
shortage. In the Scotts Bluff clis-l
trict where nearly 50,000 head of!
cattlo were fed last winter there are
about 5,000 head on feed at present!
with a prospect of 15,000 head foil
the winter. Some Increase in cattle!
feeding is reported in the northwest
ern part of the state.
In general, information from cor
respondents and basic data indicate a
30 per cent reduction in cattle feed
ing in Nebraska. The principal causes
of this reduction are a 41 per cent
smaller corn crop, a 34 per cent de
crease in the production of all tame
hay and a smaller crop of wild hay
and other feeds. The narrow margin
between the prices of feeder and fed
cattle, together with unsatisfactory
have tended further to reduce cattle
feeding.
Shipments of stocker and feeder
cattle from markets into the corn
l.elt states for the four months period
Jul to October were below last year
and the smallest since 1921. Princi
pal decreases were in states west of
the Missouri river. All states east
of the Mississippi river, except Wis
consin, showed small increases. Iowa
had about 20 per cent increase. De
creased cattle feeding in the corn belt
is still indicated. Decline in corn
prices has, however, stimulated the
demand for unfinished cattle.

ing of the important role played by
them in the great textile drama.
. These facts, together with much
other valuable information are dis
cussed in a recent report of the Wom
en's Bureau of the U. S. Department
of Labor, on a textile study based
on the records of 18 mills. 9 In' the
North and 9 In the South, and on
interviews with over 2,000 women
mill operatives.
In the mills included women con
stituted more than two-fifths of the
total number of employees, the
northern mills" showing a slightly
higher percentage of women than
did the southern mills.
The northern mills, however, far
surpassed those in the south in the
proportion of foreign-born women
workers, since one-third of the wom
en employed in the former mills were
born in other countries as compared
with slightly over 1 per cent in the
southern mills. "A mill village in
the north where many workers are
of foreign birth is surprisingly in
fluenced by its American setting,'
the report states. "Many of the
women visited could speak no Eng
lish even after living in this coun-
dinner, and care for the children.
Sometimes there is the additional re
sponsibility of live stock. .Even when
the father is living at home and
working at the mill with the moth
er, it is the woman usually who does
the housework and attends to the
cow, pig or chickens belonging to the
family.. Since women , in the mills
ofen are engaged in the same work
as men and have the same hours,
these additional home burdens borne
by the women seem hardly fair, and
force one to realize that in. the trans
ition from home making to Industrial
liff women have apparently kept the
burdens of the home and , added
those of the factory.
