%IIhat this rancher says to his son is very
• * true. Grass does provide their living ... and
a good part of the living for all of us here in
America. More than half a billion acres of the
United States—roughly, 50% of all our farm and
ranch lands—is in grass. ’'Should its harvest
fail for a single year,” said John James Ingalls,
"famine would depopulate the world.”
Grass is the preserver of much of our agricul-
tural wealth and the basic raw material of many
of our necessities. It is a major crop. And more
than that, it’s nature’s way of transferring health-
building materials . . . vitamins, minerals, and
other essential elements . . . from the soil into
the foods that nourish the nation. Grass must
pass through livestock to be converted into prod-
ucts useful to man.
So let’s give our pastures, meadows and range
lands the care they deserve. Grass on your

steeper slopes should never be broken. In the long
run, it is your most profitable crop on hillsides
because it controls erosion by tying down your
top soil and reduces evaporation of essential
moisture. Your State Agricultural Experiment
Station will tell you of new and improved varie-
ties of grass you might try to your profit, and
they will also advise you about reseeding, lime,
and fertilizer. And never overlook this important
rule of grass care—don’t overgraze!
We at Swift & Company are marketing the
products of your grass, and so we say with you,
"Grass is our living, too!”

Meet Bill Reneker, Swift’s Head Hog Buyer
If you have marketed hogs since 1907, chances are that Bill
Reneker bought some of them for he has bought more than 30
million for Swift’s . . . some of them in Western Canada where
he was buyer from 1916 to 1923, and the rest in the
U. S. A. He became head hog buyer for Swift a Com-
pany in 1932.
When not buying hogs, Bill Reneker likes to judge
them in the show ring. Right now
he’s booked until next September to
judge at several shows and hog meet-
ings.
An interest in hogs comes to Bill
naturally. His father was a livestock
salesman and his grandfather con-
ducted a commission business in Pitts-
burgh as far back as 1866. His hobby
is sharing his vast knowledge of hogs
with farm boys and girls.
If you should see this big, friendly
man in a show ring, don’t hesitate to
get acquainted with him.
There’s a Black Sheep
in almost every band.
Hut lie's not as bad as lii.i
reputation paints him.
Permanently dyed black
by nature, his fleece can-
rot be blenched. The
I i ses fjr black wool arc
limited so care must be
t xercised to beep it prop-
erly sorted in the wool c!:p. However, manu-
facturers do weave it into broadcloth. And —
believe it or not—the wool from the black
sheep in the flock becomes clothing for the
clergy.

IT’S 2,049 MILES FROM
HEREFORD, TEXAS, TO
HARTFORD, CONN.
To the west of the Mississippi is
produced two-thirds of the nation's
meat. To the east live more than
two-tliirds of all Americans.
Under these conditions cither livestock or fresh meat
must lie transported from the West to the East, and as
we know, it has been found to be more economical to
slaughter the animals in central plants in surplus pro-
ducing sections, save the by-products, then transport
the meat in refrigerator cars to the consuming sec-
tions, titan to ship the live animals.
To have a market for livestock, we must find a mar-
ket for meat. The job of nation-wide meat packers is
to bridge the gap, an average of more than a thousand
miles, made up in part from such trips os Boise, Idaho,
to Boston; from Denver to Detroit; from Paducah to
Pittsburgh; and from Hereford, Texas, to Hartford,
Connecticut. It is necessary to have a large organiza-
tion with proper facilities to handle efficiently nation-
wide distribution to the thousands of consuming cen-
ters of America. • • •
